Soulja Boy Me & Ye Are All Gravy, Baby ... Despite Apparent Beef
Soulja Boy and Kanye West might seem like they’re constantly at each other’s throats -- but they’re actually buds ... so says SB himself.
Big Draco set the record straight Sunday by announcing that, yes, he and Ye are actually cool ... despite him apparently taking shots at the guy, including recently -- when he mentioned Kim K and Pete Davidson.
ICYMI ... Soulja took to IG a few days ago and said PD (or Skeet, as he’s now known) “got your bitch,” among other derogatory things ... obviously referencing Kanye.
Sounds like KW got the memo, because he seems to have texted Soulja directly after the fact ... asking that he not talk about his estranged wife. Soulja shared a screenshot of that convo, and at first glance ... it looks like it’s gonna get nasty, because he responded with animus.
Fortunately, Kanye diffused the situation almost immediately ... telling Soulja he was gonna send him one of his new Stem Players while also inviting him to hop on ‘Donda 2,’ which brought Soulja’s guard down. Kanye had previously cut Soulja's verse from Donda and then trashed it in an interview.
In an IG story post, SV cleared the air that it’s all love between them, even if they act “crazy” at times and suggest otherwise. He also said they’re just two smart, strong-willed dudes with big dreams.
Speaking of that entrepreneurial spirit they both share, Kanye seems to have found himself some major success off of that nifty music player of his ... to the tune of millions he says he might’ve otherwise missed out on.
If you didn’t hear, he’s not releasing ‘D2’ on traditional streaming platforms ... instead, he’s exclusively putting it out via this new device of his -- which is pretty cool looking.

He’s asking for $200 a pop for one of these, and while it might sound like an absurd idea ... it apparently is paying off in dividends.
Ye says he’s already made at least $2 mil in net profits alone since plugging the thing, which is the type of revenue he says streaming numbers couldn’t realistically touch, due to the low payout for artists.

Third Eye Blind's Stephan Jenkins 'Pam & Tommy' Studio Scene Never Happened!!!
-
Exclusive Details
- 112 shares
Stephan Jenkins from Third Eye Blind is setting the record straight about the confrontation between his band and Mötley Crüe in "Pam & Tommy." It never happened, because he's never even met them.
The Hulu series -- about Pamela Anderson and drummer Tommy Lee's marriage -- features a scene where the band has their studio time swiped by Third Eye Blind, and shows Tommy Lee barging in to confront them.
Well, TEB's lead singer tells us that's total fiction -- he says he doesn't know any Crüe members, and hadn't even heard their music at that time ... but the intent of the scene was making a point about the industry. This was first reported by Variety.
Stephan says Third Eye and Crüe were on the same record label, and studio time tends to be limited. Sometimes resources go to the less established -- like TEB was compared to Crüe at the time -- and that does ruffle some feathers.
"Pam & Tommy" started streaming earlier this month, but Stephan says he hasn't seen it yet. He found out they were in it from his manager. He also gets into the backlash he has gotten from comments he has made since the series aired.
The show actually comes at a good time for Third Eye Blind. In honor of their 25th anniversary, the band just announced a summer tour ... with some proceeds going toward the restoration of the Palos Verdes Kelp Forest off the SoCal coastline.

Ye I've Got My Eyes on You, Pete!!! Follows His IG After Online Attacks
11:35 AM PT -- Kanye now has his social media-sights set on TMZ, calling us "Godless" and saying, "God got me and God got our family Jesus has already one the victory And for everyone praying for me and my family Faith without works is dead."
Pete Davidson's return to Instagram is gonna get really interesting really quickly, because one of his new followers is ... you guessed it, Kanye West!!! Naturally.
In his latest tug-of-war with his ex, Kim Kardashian, Ye followed Pete's new account Wednesday night, and not quietly, either. He left a pretty ominous ALL CAPS comment ... “FOLLOWED”.
He then posted a screenshot of that, but of course, he quickly deleted it.
Pete launching a new IG account is a little ironic -- and maybe defiant -- considering it's the very platform Kanye used to publicly insult him. Just a few days ago, he called Pete a "d**khead" and posted their private messages, where Pete insisted he hopes to squash their beef someday.
You'll recall, Ye also encouraged folks to scream at Pete, if they saw him out in public ... he later posted private texts from Kim, expressing concern for Pete’s safety. And, that's just IG ... the rapper previously threatened to 'beat Pete Davidson's a**' on a song from his Donda 2 album.
So, it's no shocker Pete didn't give Ye a follow back. In fact, the only people Pete is following right now are his boo, Kim Kardashian, and actor Sebastian Stan.
The 'SNL' star actually deleted his account back in 2018 for mental health reasons. He called the Internet an "evil place" ... he joined again briefly, but dropped out again after posting a concerning note.
The odd thing is with Ye lurking and taunting him, the Internet can't seem all that inviting now!

Hazel-E Hell Yes, I Went HAM on Winnie Harlow!!! Explains Why On 'It's Tricky with Raquel Harper'

Some might say Hazel-E's crossed a line in her viral feud -- but she has no regrets about clapping back at Winnie Harlow the way she has, and insists there's more to come.
Hazel-E went on the "It's Tricky with Raquel Harper" podcast to break down her war of words with the model which went nuclear when the insults got super-personal and lasered in on both women's appearances.
The "Love & Hip Hop" star told Raq that if people are gonna roast her appearance, she feels it's only fitting for her to respond with the same intensity. As Hazel put it ... if she's being pulled apart for the way she looks, "then nothing is off-limits".
The rift with Winnie ratcheted up when LightSkinKeisha posted pictures back in 2019 saying Hazel-E looked like Ernest P. Worrell from the 'Ernest' movies. It was strictly their beef until Winnie commented on one of Keisha's posts with ... "Keisha nooooooo."
Didn't seem like much, but it caught Hazel-E's eye real quick.
That's when she replied to Winnie ... "Look here 101 Dalmatians."
As you probably know Winnie -- a former 'Top Model' star -- has vitiligo, but Hazel-E still piled on with, "In real life if Tyra Banks didn't feel sorry for your malnourished a**, no one would know you! Pipe down salt n pepa."
Harsh, for sure, but check out the clip with Raq ... Hazel feels justified.

Ben Baller Ye Wants a Chain??? He Can Dream On If He's a Cudi Hater!!!
-
Exclusive
- 123 shares
Kanye West apparently wants a chain made by Ben Baller, but he’ll never get it ... as long as he’s still beefing with Kid Cudi, anyway.
We got Hollywood’s go-to jeweler in L.A. to expand on some tweets he fired off during the Ye-Cudi showdown this past weekend -- when Kanye disavowed KC because he's friends with Pete Davidson.
In response, Ben recounted how Kanye’s been hounding him for a custom dove piece -- while also calling him a “bitch” for attacking Cudi, with whom BB is good pals.
The way Ben sees it, going after Cudi is totally unfair and unwarranted -- not just because of their long history as label mates, but on account of personal things Ben says Cudi’s gone through. On top of that, Ben says he’s just a lovely guy.
Like Ben tells us here, he wasn’t going to stand by and let his friend take a stray for something so absurd as perceived alliances. He also makes this clear ... if Ye has a problem with Cudi, then he's got one with Ben too -- and he can kiss the prospect of getting a chain goodbye.
So, yes, the door’s still open -- if only slightly -- and the ball is definitely in Ye’s court on how to proceed.
One last thing ... Ben gave us his thoughts on the Kim-Ye-Pete drama, and he had an interesting way to describe it -- “high school.” He also offers advice to Kanye about where his priorities should be right now.

Usain Bolt Clowns Tyreek Hill ... You Lost A Race To A Linebacker?!?

The hilarious feud between Usain Bolt and Tyreek Hill is nowhere near dead yet ... the legendary sprinter clowned the NFL player on Sunday, laughing about his effort in a race at the Pro Bowl.
Bolt threw the jabs as he was leaving the Super Bowl on Sunday ... telling TMZ Sports he doesn't want to race Hill after he saw the Kansas City Chiefs star drop a sprint to Dallas Cowboys rookie Micah Parsons.
#Cowboys LB Micah Parsons beat Tyreek Hill, Nick Chubb and Trevon Diggs in a “fastest man” race. Rookie was going all-out.

pic.twitter.com/exZrV8jfIG
"He's not ready," Bolt said of Hill. "He got beaten by some linebacker! He ain't ready for this!"
Bolt was giggling as he tossed out the barbs -- and said after watching Tyreek in the Vegas race he's still sublimely confident he'd dust Hill on the track.
"I'm the fastest man in the world," Bolt said. "What do you mean?!"
If you missed it, Hill and Bolt have been trading words about a possible race for months -- with Hill telling us back in November he's so sure he'd beat Bolt, he's willing to put his Super Bowl ring on the line.
Bolt, though, clearly doesn't seem to think Hill is even deserving of his time ... telling us outside of SoFi Stadium the receiver -- and any other NFL player who thinks they're fast -- needs to get "serious" and then call him.

Frankie Grande says Kanye West just wants a reaction from Pete Davidson ... telling us the nasty rumors Kanye's spreading about his sister and Mac Miller are a bunch of bull.
We got Ariana Grande's brother at Crossroads Kitchen in Los Angeles on Monday and asked about Kanye claiming Pete sent Mac intimate photos of him and AG.
Frankie says he's never heard this to be true and chalks it up to Kanye looking to stir the pot now that Pete is dating his estranged wife, Kim Kardashian.
It's a pretty nasty rumor to spread, but Frankie's taking the high road here ... telling us he doesn't put much stock in what Kanye says and wishing Ye, Pete and Kim nothing but the best.
Still, Frankie says he would never spread rumors about someone or insert himself in someone else's business ... and while he hopes folks like Kanye follow his lead, he doesn't want to control anyone.
Frankie obviously knows Pete from when the 'SNL' star was engaged to Ariana ... and he tells us why he doesn't buy the narrative Pete is with Kim for clout.
Safe to say anyone ... gay or straight ... would want to date Kim ... at least according to Frankie.

10:25 AM PT -- One last thing ... Kanye seems to want to make sure people know his account isn't hacked, and that this is all him. He posted a photo of himself with today's date written out.
He writes, "MY ACCOUNT IS NOT HACKED I WILL BE AT SUNDAY SERVICE AT NOON AND WILL ME TAKING NORTH AND SAINT TO THE SUPERBOWL SHORTLY AFTER @chethinks I’LL DOUBLE WHATEVER THEY PAYING YOU JUST SO YOU DONT HAVE TO LOOK AT THAT PAWN EVER AGAIN BIG LOVE."
10:17 AM PT -- More unhinged thoughts from Kanye, who seems to be determined to smear Pete's name by any means necessary ... even if it means invoking the late Mac Miller.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Ye is literally publishing a crap ton of IG posts right now, most of which are aimed directly at PD -- including one that's a screenshot of an old, unfounded internet rumor about how Pete allegedly sent Mac intimate photos of him and Ariana Grande together. That was never reported on as fact by any media outlet that we can see ... it was pure gossip.
And yet, Kanye threw it up as an attack ... writing "NO COMMENT" as the caption. Sadly, there's more.
KW threw up a photo of Pete and MGK in their undies, as well as another screenshot of what appears to be a text exchange with Pete himself ... who seems to have reached out to Ye and talked about Kim and Kanye's kids. Basically, he says he doesn't wanna get in the middle of that at all.
Ye's response ... "NO YOU WILL NEVER MEET MY CHILDREN."
Kanye West is on a tear again against Kim Kardashian's boyfriend, and this one seems downright hostile.
Kanye just posted a partial pic of a guy who's pretty clearly Pete Davidson, with the caption, "LOOK AT THIS D**KHEAD I WONDER IF INSTAGRAM GONNA SHUT DOWN MY PAGE FOR DISSING HILARY CLINTON’S EX BOYFRIEND."
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
As for the Hillary reference ... Pete has a prominent tattoo of Hillary on his arm.
Kanye has gone back and forth over his feelings toward Kim, the marriage and Pete. Just hours before his most recent posts, he deleted most of his feed again, saving just one -- pleading with God, "PLEASE BRING OUR FAMILY BACK TOGETHER"
As you know, Ye has also suggested in one of his songs that he wanted to kick Pete's ass ... and then again on a new single "City of Gods," with Fivio Foreign and Alicia Keys.
This makes the Kevin Hart clip we got all the more interesting ... Kev thinks there's no beef to squash between Kanye and Pete. Really?
Kanye wasn't done, posting this about Kid Cudi -- "I WOULD HAVE NEVER ASKED FOR THE LOYALTY IF IT WAS NEVER OFFERED AND I FOUND A COOL PICTURE CAUSE I LOVE CUDI AND ALWAYS WILL BUT DONDA2 IS ABOUT RUNNING BACK IN THAT BURNING HOUSE I RESPECT NOT EVERYONE GONNA BE READY FOR THE SMOKE"
Kanye clearly has beef in this dept. as well, posting earlier ... "Just so everyone knows Cudi will not be on Donda because he's friends with you know who."
The "who" is Pete.

Kid Cudi Fires Back at Ye Over 'Donda' Snub ... Calls Him 'Dinosaur'

2:40 PM PT -- Kid Cudi has responded to Kanye very publicly bashing him ... and it seems the guy is more than willing and ready to cut the cord completely.
In direct response to Kanye's post, he writes ... "Too bad I don't wanna be on ur album u f***** dinosaur hahaha. everyone knows ive been the best thing about ur albums since i met u. Ima pray for you brother."
Cudi wasn't done yet though, he addressed things further on Twitter by writing ... "We talked weeks ago about this. You're whack for flipping the script and posting this lie just for a look on the internet. You ain't no friend. BYE."
As you know, Ye and Cudi have collaborated for a very long time ... and the latter was once signed to Kanye's GOOD Music label. Even so, no love lost here, it seems. 😬
Kanye West appears to be burning more bridges with people he was once close with -- saying that Kid Cudi will not be appearing on his new album ... because of Pete Davidson.
The omission was made crystal clear Saturday, with Ye taking to IG to specifically call out KC and his participation in "Donda 2" -- or a lack thereof, rather -- while attributing it to Cudi's friendship with Kim Kardashian's boyfriend.
Kanye posted a photo of a note he seems to have handwritten on, which reads ... "Just so everyone knows Cudi will not be on Donda because he's friends with you know who."
He adds ... "We all speak in Billie language now," a clear reference to his recent feud with Billie Eilish, whom he demanded apologize for a perceived shot at Travis Scott. KW's caption is also telling ... he simply added a shrug emoji 🤷🏽♂️ to emphasize his point here.
There's been speculation about who will or won't be on "Donda 2" ... because, frankly, a lot has happened since Ye released his OG album of the same name. BTW, Cudi did end up getting featured on a deluxe version of "Donda," but it seems he's been iced out for round 2.
As for Cudi and Pete's history ... they've been buds for a handful of years now, dating back to that time Pete attended a birthday dinner that ended up featuring the likes of Kanye and Timothee Chalamet.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Pete and Cudi have also hung out together even more recently, including at last year's Met Gala ... where they were photographed together during an after-party event.
Seems like Ye's drawing a line in the sand here over where he thinks alliances lie ... Cudi has yet to respond publicly.

7:09 AM PT -- The Kanye diss apparently doesn't have any effect on Pete ... a source close to the comedian tells us, "Pete is focusing on his relationship with Kim and making sure she feels supported, the rest is just noise."
Sounds like Kanye West is stuck in the anger stage of breaking up from Kim Kardashian, and he's taking it out on Pete Davidson with a new hint of violence ... in a song, at least.
Ye is featured on Fivio Foreign's new single, "City of Gods," alongside Alicia Keys. Great track ... unless you're Pete because when Ye's verse comes up, intimidation towards Pete comes flying out.
We mean, how else should the 'SNL' star take these lyrics -- "This afternoon, a hundred goons pullin' up to SNL (What?) When I pull up, it's dead on arrival."
Ye even throws some shots towards his estranged wife ... "And if I let 'em have my wife, n****s should thank me ... With this Balenciaga and Balenci' boots and a new blue Yankee."
Kanye disses Pete Davidson on his new song "My Life Was Never Eazy" 😬 pic.twitter.com/4sfmhBPiKK

Don't forget, this isn't the first time he's put his feelings about the couple in lyrics.
In the track "Eazy", he says "God saved me from that crash, just so I can beat Pete Davidson's ass."
And, as we first reported, Ye was allegedly spreading rumors last month that Pete has AIDS -- although, sources close to the rapper called that "nonsense".
Ya wanna believe things will get better between the 3 of them ... but for now, Ye seems stuck in lyrical threats mode.

Ye No Coachella for Me ... Unless Billie Apologizes to Travis!!!
2:35 PM PT -- Billie's just responded to Kanye, though it wasn't really an apology, saying, "literally never said a thing about travis. was just helping a fan."
Kanye West is pressuring Billie Eilish, and holding Coachella fans hostage in the process ... threatening to pull out of the festival if she doesn't say she's sorry for an apparent jab at Travis Scott.
Ye just posted a manifesto, of sorts, demanding -- in all caps -- the 20-year-old singer "APOLOGIZE TO TRAV AND TO THE FAMILIES OF THE PEOPLE WHO LOST THEIR LIVES."
You'll recall, last week BE stopped her concert in Atlanta to make sure a fan near the front row was okay, as they were having trouble breathing. Then came the shot at Travis -- "I wait for people to be okay before I keep going."
Well, now Ye's coming to Travis' defense, saying ... "TRAV DIDN'T HAVE ANY IDEA OF WHAT WAS HAPPENING WHEN HE WAS ON STAGE AND WAS VERY HURT BY WHAT HAPPENED."
As you know, Ye and Billie are both scheduled headliners at Coachella this year -- and in his post, Ye says he plans to bring Travis with him to the festival ... that is, IF he goes now.
As he threatened, "NOW I NEED BILLIE TO APOLOGIZE BEFORE I PERFORM."
It's unclear if Ye meant Travis would be onstage performing with him, or if he'd just be there for moral support. Either way, Mr. West is now bullying Billie and, in a way, Coachella.

Kanye West Scrubs Posts, Hangs with His Kids ... After Kim K 'Hit' Claim

Exclusive Details

3:37 PM PT -- TMZ has confirmed ... Kanye did, indeed, get to have the kids to himself today, which seems to have triggered his mass deletion of the disparaging posts.
Video is circulating online that appears to show all 4 of his children hanging out with him at some sort of church service he was at in L.A. ... sans Kim or any sort of chaperone around, it seems.
Unclear if he'll air out his frustrations on Instagram again the next time around -- or if this is a sign of a permanent change to come in how he handles family issues. Time will tell ...
3:19 PM PT -- Kanye has scrubbed what appears to be most, if not all, of his all-caps posts about Kim and the kids.
Kanye West is making shocking claims about Kim Kardashian -- now suggesting she's under the impression he wants to take her life ... this as it appears she's blocked his number.
Ye was at it again Sunday ... posting a fresh round of all-caps IG captions, taking aim at his estranged wife. Only this time -- he's making allegations that are straight-up disturbing ... actually saying Kim thinks he's got a bounty on her head.
His latest post features a screengrab of a text he seems to have sent to someone which reads, "Send me Kim's number." The caption that follows is this -- "YESTERDAY KIM ACCUSED ME OF PUTTING A HIT OUT ON HER." He then continues to describe how he feels, of late, that he's been accused of being on drugs, stealing from the Kardashians and also that he had to "BEG" to attend Chicago's birthday party a few weeks ago.
He adds, "NOW IM BEING ACCUSED OF PUTTING A HIT ON HER THESE IDEAS CAN ACTUALLY GET SOMEONE LOCKED UP THEY PLAY LIKE THAT WITH BLACK MENS LIVES WEATHER ITS GETTING THEM FREE OR GETTING THEM LOCKED UP IM NOT PLAYING ABOUT MY BLACK CHILDREN ANYMORE."
For the record ... there's no indication that Kim has accused Kanye of putting a hit out on her -- not that we can see, anyway.
Ye via Instagram:

"THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF KIM’S COUSIN AGREEING WITH ME ABOUT TIK TOK THEN PROCEEDING TO ASK ME FOR SOME YEEZYS AFTERWARDS HER OTHER COUSIN KARA CALLED ME SAYING SHE AGREED WITH ME THEN SAID SHE WOULD SPEAK OUT PUBLICLY WHICH SHE NEVER DID THEN SHE SUGGESTED… pic.twitter.com/lBYwt3x6Q5
And yet, there's more ... shortly before throwing out that wild accusation, Kanye posted another all-caps message -- only this one is purported to included exchanges he says he had with one of Kim's cousins.
His caption is pretty long here, but essentially ... he's saying that even members of Kim's own family -- outside of her immediate unit, that is -- are actually reaching out to him in private to agree about his stance on parenting. He also claims that in the same breath, they're kinda gaslighting him and asking for favors too ... like new Yeezys for their kids.
On top of putting Kim's family's business out there, Kanye also seems to be harping on a point he's been making a lot lately -- namely, the fact he feels his late mother ruined his relationship with his father, Ray. The two of them have rekindled in recent years ... which has been well-documented by Ye and co.
Throughout all these posts over the past several days, he's been saying he isn't going to let the same thing happen to him and his own children.

Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx Vedder Hated Us in the '80s, Eh??? Well, Pearl Jam Sucks!!!
Eddie Vedder says he hated Motley Crue in the '80s, and now one of the big-hair band's very own is firing off his thoughts on the matter ... calling Pearl Jam a snore-fest.
Bassist Nikki Sixx tweeted out some zingers Saturday, writing ... "Made me laugh today reading how much the singer in Pearl Jam hated @MotleyCrue. Now considering that they're one of the most boring bands in history it's kind of a compliment isn't it?"

He wasn't done mouthing off just yet though ... in response to one fan saying she'd recommend PJ songs for a friend's newborn baby to get it to go to sleep, NS replied -- "Or just sing to the baby with marbles In your mouth…Very zen."
And, yet to another fan who called him a lame who had 3 mid-level songs at best, Nikki wrote ... "Remember there were zillions of brown haired bands for brown haired fans…..Go find them. You will know them by the bored look on their face."
Now, if you're wondering where the heck all this generational animosity stems from ... it's actually Vedder who technically launched the first arrow across the bow -- taking aim at MC, specifically, in a recent NYT article ... in which he called the 4 fellas and their whole vibe, well, thin on substance.
While answering a question about whether any ripples from the Gen X/alt-culture explosion of the '70s and '80s extended to the present, EV didn't hold back while describing an old gear-loading gig of his.
He said, "I'd end up being at shows that I wouldn't have chosen to go to -- bands that monopolized late-'80s MTV. The metal bands that -- I'm trying to be nice -- I despised. "Girls, Girls, Girls" and Mötley Crüe: f*** you. I hated it. I hated how it made the fellas look. I hated how it made the women look. It felt so vacuous."
Vedder went on to say that thank God Guns N Roses came around to put some teeth back into the genre. And finally, he took a shot at Heather Locklear -- Tommy Lee's ex-wife.
He suggests Locklear was emblematic of how rock and roll portrayed and/or saw women in those days, explaining, "But I'm circling back to say that one thing that I appreciated was that in Seattle and the alternative crowd, the girls could wear their combat boots and sweaters, and their hair looked like Cat Power's and not Heather Locklear's -- nothing against her."
He finishes, "They weren't selling themselves short. They could have an opinion and be respected. I think that's a change that lasted. It sounds so trite, but before then it was bustiers." Sounds like a classic battle of the band's beef right here -- can we get a Verzuz???

Kanye West Thanks Candace Owens ... For Defending Him in Parenting Spat
Kanye West now has someone in his corner over his very public spat with Kim Kardashian over parenting -- and that'd be one Candace Owens ... whose support he appreciates.
Ye took to IG Saturday to thank the conservative political pundit for voicing support over whether Kanye and Kim's daughter, North, should be on TikTok or not -- and in CO's POV, the kid definitely shouldn't ... because she says it's harmful for young girls.
Kim is wrong on this one. The psychological effects of social media on young girls is real and documented. It’s actually Kanye that is trying to protect his daughter in this regard and Kim is spinning this as “obsession” and “control”.
— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) February 4, 2022 @RealCandaceO
There are other creative outlets for kids. https://t.co/32ATNh4Njs
Candace says Kim's wrong on this issue, going on to say ... "It's actually Kanye that is trying to protect his daughter in this regard and Kim is spinning this as 'obsession' and 'control'" ... adding there are other ways for kids to creatively express themselves besides TikTok.
KW was definitely feeling the love, and made sure Candace knew about it ... posting a lengthy caption that expressed just how much it meant to him that she was standing by his side ... while others, apparently, keep their vote of confidence on the DL with Ye.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
He writes, "THANK YOU CANDACE FOR BEING THE ONLY NOTEWORTHY PERSON TO SPEAK ON THIS ISSUE THERE'S A LOT OF CELEBRITIES SCARED TO SAY SOMETHING IN PUBLIC BUT THEY'LL TEXT ME IN PRIVATE AND SAY THEIR ON MY SIDE."
Kanye adds, "I WILL NO LONGER PUT MY HAND THROUGH A BLENDER TO HUG MY CHILDREN MY MOTHER TOOK ME TO CHICAGO WHEN I WAS 3 AND TOLD MY DAD IF HE CAME TO CHICAGO HE WOULD NEVER SEE ME AGAIN SO I BOUGHT THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR I DREAM OF A WORLD WHERE DAD’S CAN STILL BE HEROES."
This latest dustup comes after Kim filmed a TikTok with North ... which pissed off Kanye, as he's made it clear he doesn't want his kids on there. Kim accused him of attacking her, and essentially brushed off the TikTok use as NBD ... especially compared to his behavior.
As we've told you ... this stuff might just need to get handled in court -- because it doesn't seem Kanye's gonna pipe down anytime soon ... despite what Kim wants.

Charles Oakley LeBron Refused To Play For Knicks ... Thanks To James Dolan

Breaking News

New York fans can thank James Dolan for never landing LeBron James ... so says Knicks legend Charles Oakley, who claims the King's main reason for not signing in the Big Apple was the controversial owner.
Oakley recalled a conversation he had with Bron during the 2014 season in his new book, 'The Last Enforcer,' ... which happened after Oak met Dolan for the first time.
Oak claims the Knicks owner refused to shake hands or even look at him throughout the interaction at All-Star Weekend ... and when he relayed what happened to LeBron, the Chosen One had words of his own.
"I walked back to LeBron and said, 'This motherf***er (Dolan) wouldn't shake my hand,'" Oakley claims. "All LeBron said was, 'This is why I'm never going to New York.'"
Oakley says he was shocked by Dolan's coldness at the time ... saying, "You would have thought I did something to his wife."
"I didn't do anything to this man. What did I ever say that was so bad that he would ignore me like that? I wondered. Man, I wanted to hit him in the head."
Of course, Oakley and LeBron have been good friends for quite some time ... so it's no surprise the 4-time champ would have the Cleveland native's back in the feud.
Tension between Dolan and Oakley reached a boiling point during an incident at Madison Square Garden in 2017, when Oak was hauled out of the arena and arrested by NYPD for getting physical with security staffers.
Oakley -- who spent 10 seasons with the Knicks -- was banned from the Garden (at the behest of Dolan) ... and while the ban was lifted, he has not yet returned to the Mecca.
As for LeBron, he eventually returned to the Cavaliers instead of joining the Knicks ... and won a championship for the city of Cleveland in 2016.

Jake Gyllenhaal Rocks a Scarf ... Where is Taylor Swift's?!?
Well, well, well ... Jake Gyllenhaal seems to have found a scarf after all, and he's flaunting it!!! To be fair, he's getting paid to do that.
Brace yourself Taylor Swift devotees, but yes ... the actor's rocking a tan-ish/blue colored scarf on the set of “The Interpreter” in Spain. Interesting fashion, because you gotta believe the movie's wardrobe department knows all too well about T Swift's scarf beef with ex-bf, Jake.
As Swifties well know ... Taylor's hit song, "All Too Well" references the missing scarf. She sings, "Left my scarf there at your sister's house and you've still got it in your drawer even now."
Taylor's legion of fans have been on the search for the scarf ever since.
As you may know, Jake and Taylor dated from October to December, back in 2010. Now, here's the thing ... the music video for "All Too Well" shows a red scarf -- but, Swifties will tell ya the actual, real-life, scarf was mostly blue.
So, is Jake sending a message to Taylor with his wardrobe on the set? 🤔
Absolutely ... not, we'd say, but we'll leave that to the experts Swifties. Thanks a lot for keeping scarfgate alive, Jake!!!
