Celebrity Feuds

Melissa McCarthy is making it clear there is no beef between herself and Barbra Streisand after the latter's Ozempic ask -- and Barb herself is also issuing an apology over it.

After Babs caught some heat for asking if Melissa had shed some pounds thanks to the weight loss drug ... a photog caught up with the actress on the street in L.A. Tuesday -- where she said she still has love for the superstar.

MMC made it clear it was NBD at all saying ... "I think Barbra is a treasure and I love her." She even waved off the photog's question on whether she thought Barbra was out of line.

Melissa McCarthy está dejando claro que no hay ningún problema entre ella y Barbra Streisand luego de que la cantante le preguntara si ha estado tomando Ozempic, y la propia Barb está compartiendo una disculpa por su comentario.

Después de que Babs recibiera algunas críticas por consultar si Melissa había perdido algunos kilos gracias al medicamento, un fotógrafo se encontró con la actriz en la calle en Los Ángeles el martes, donde le dijo que aún adora a la superestrella.

Melissa dejó claro que no era un gran tema diciendo: "Creo que Barbra es un tesoro y la amo". Incluso se desentendió de la pregunta que le hizo el fotógrafo sobre si pensaba que Barbra se había pasado de la raya.

12:01 PM PT -- Un representante de Amazon MGM Studios le dice a TMZ: "Dwayne Johnson y Seven Bucks han sido socios increíbles en “Red One”, una película que le va a encantar al público de todas las edades estas vacaciones. Nuestras pruebas han sido muy sólidas, la reacción de CinemaCon habla por sí sola, y no lo podríamos haber logrado sin el trabajo constante y el apoyo de Dwayne".

Y añaden: "Cualquier información que implique que hemos llegado a este punto con él apareciendo 7-8 horas tarde en el set es ridícula y falsa".

La Roca tuvo un altercado con Ryan Reynolds mientras trabajaban en una película juntos hace años, y aunque no fue una pelea como se ha sugerido, sí fue algo.

Gillie Da Kid won't be giving Kendrick Lamar's Drake diss the "Million Dollarz Worth of Game" primetime treatment -- the OG rapper thinks K. Dot served up a batch of hot ass with his "Euphoric" track!

Kendrick's associates easily gave him the nod over Drake's pair of disses but Gillie's scorecard says the complete opposite. He's got Drake up 2-0 ... and says the only thing Kendrick's winning is a corny contest.

Not only does Gillie think Drake has a 2-track lead, he also has Chris Brown up 1-0 over Quavo -- and he's under the impression race is playing a role in both battles.

From his POV, lightskin dudes are running the table!

He goes off on a tangent about light-skin guys commanding the spotlight in the 1980s street culture before Nino Brown -- Wesley Snipes' character in "New Jack City" -- became the hood's American idol.

Yeah ... romanticizing about fictional drug dealers and judging rap tracks didn't give Gillie's opinion much credibility with fans online.

Bottom line here, Gillie doesn't think Kung Fu Kenny kicked Drake hard enough with his stabs.

NFL star Sauce Gardner pretty much echoed Gillie's sentiments (without the corny jab and race critical theory), but the mixed reviews are surely enough gas to keep emotions lit on both sides of the ball!!!

12:01 PM PT -- A rep for Amazon MGM Studios tells TMZ ... "Dwayne Johnson and Seven Bucks have been incredible partners on 'Red One' -- a film that audiences of all ages are going to love this holiday season. Our testing has been very strong -- the reaction from CinemaCon speaks for itself -- and we couldn’t have made it without Dwayne’s constant work and support."

They add, "Any reporting that implies that we got to this point with him showing up 7-8 hours late to set is both ridiculous and false."

The Rock got into a tiff with Ryan Reynolds while they were working on a movie together years ago -- and while it wasn't a blowup fight as has been suggested, it was a real thing.

President Joe Biden put on his comedy hat at the White House Correspondents' Association's annual dinner Saturday – throwing a major barb at Donald Trump for standing trial over a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.

As the night's featured guest, Joe strolled up to the podium for his speech at the Washington Hilton in D.C. before a packed crowd of journalists, government officials and Hollywood stars to celebrate the free press.

Right from the get-go, Joe poked fun at his chief rival and presumptive Republican 2024 presidential nominee – Trump – while first tackling the age issue saddling both candidates.

Chris Brown is treating his beef with Quavo as an afterthought, at least for the moment.

Up-and-coming rapper Skylar Blatt hails from Cincinnati and Chris added his golden singing chops to their "Wake Up" song/video collab released Friday ... but don't think the singing softened his stance.

Chris croons in his verse ... "Got whole lotta problems / Lot of n***** turned down the squabbles, so I'm here" before going into further detail about some of the firearms he owns.

Drake's making amends with Tupac's estate, complying with the cease and desist demands it made after he used an AI Tupac voice on his diss track, "Taylor Made Freestyle."

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Drake's team and representatives from Tupac's estate have had productive talks after the estate sent its C&D letter on Wednesday -- and it's already led to serious progress.

Drake's taken down the track from his Twitter and Instagram -- the only places he posted it -- and, his team is trying to get it removed from other sites that redistributed it.

Soulja Boy is campaigning hard for TikTok, declaring he's the platform's best hope now that President Biden's put a ticking timebomb on it -- so, Soulja's screaming let's make a deal!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with Soulja Boy this week on the heels of him speaking out against the legislation Biden signed to outlaw TikTok in America, if it doesn't divest from Chinese ownership.

TikTok's head honcho Shou Zi Chew vowed to fight to the very end ... a cause SB believes is hopeless, but tells us he's willing to take the reigns and keep the app in its original essence.

Chris Brown and Quavo are currently tangled in a gnarly rap beef -- and it's all about Karrueche Tran ... who just addressed how she feels about it all on camera.

The actress spoke to a pap at LAX Thursday -- who asked her how she felt about the fact her two exes have been trading bars back and forth over the fact they each dated her at separate times ... and you can tell she wants to stay out of the drama.

At first, she claims not to have heard either Chris or Quavo's diss tracks yet -- but eventually caved and admitted she actually has when faced with a listening session on the spot.

Mark Wahlberg parece estar enviando un mensaje con su último post, ya que viene en los talones de la demanda de David Beckham contra su empresa de fitness.

El actor lanzó un video el miércoles en su página de IG, y si bien no fue la primera cosa que ha publicado desde que David presentó una demanda contra la marca de entrenamiento F45 de Mark, es la primera en la que está sin camisa y ladrando agresivamente, interesante teniendo en cuenta lo que está pasando.

El video es bastante simple; Mark aparece de pie al aire libre en las primeras horas de la madrugada -4 AM al parecer- y parece ser el comienzo de una rutina de entrenamiento.

Mark Wahlberg seems to be telegraphing a certain message with his latest thirst trap post -- which comes on the heels of David Beckham's lawsuit against his fitness company.

The actor threw up a video Wednesday on his IG page, and while it wasn't the first thing he's posted since David filed suit against Mark's F45 training brand ... it is the first one where he's shirtless and barking aggressively, interesting considering what's going on BTS.

The video's pretty simple ... it's Mark standing outside in the wee hours of the morning -- 4 AM, apparently -- which seems to be the start of whatever workout routine he's getting into.

Gucci Mane decided it best he enter the 2024 rap wars and his chosen target is Diddy!!!

Mr. Zone 6 is kicking Diddy while he's down with the new track, "TakeDat" ... ruthlessly appropriates the Bad Boy mogul's catchphrase, but that's far from the biggest shot on the venomous track.

Gucci opens the song spewing the social media favorite slogan, “I’m just f***ing around, but No Diddy” and proceeds to use that as the hook while also making a sly reference to Diddy's ex ... "I got a young Miami bitch from the city / I’m spending money like a trick (No Diddy).”

DaBaby could have his own hip hop battle going right now -- adjacent to Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar -- but it wouldn't have been authentic, so he rejected a mystery rapper's indecent proposal.

While speaking to Shaq and Adam Lefkoe on 'The Big Pod,' DaBaby claims a well-known lyricist propositioned him -- shortly before J. Cole apologized to Kendrick for engaging in beef cosplay -- to get their names looped in the headlines.

DaBaby says the unnamed rapper was amped seeing the attention Drake and Kendrick were getting and wanted to scoop some buzz by launching a fake feud in public ... while maintaining a tight relationship behind the scenes.

Tupac Shakur's estate is laying down the law on Drake ... threatening to drag him to court for using an AI-generated version of the late rapper's voice for a diss track aimed at Kendrick Lamar.

TMZ has obtained the cease-and-desist letter fired off by the attorney for Tupac's estate, Howard King, and it calls out Drake for the AI verse on "Taylor Made Freestyle" ... saying, "Not only is the record a flagrant violation of Tupac's publicity and the estate's legal rights, it is also a blatant abuse of the legacy of one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time."

The estate goes on to say it would never have given approval for this -- and it issues an ultimatum: take down the track in less than 24 hours, and explain how it was made ... or else.

Kim Kardashian posted a photo with one of Taylor Swift's famous frenemies -- none other than Karlie Kloss, who stopped being good pals with the Swiftster years ago ... interesting.

The reality star posted a selfie from 2022 that featured herself, Karlie, Khloe and W Magazine's Sara Moonves ... who were all cozied up around this dude named Derek Blasberg ... just another socialite.

It was his birthday and she posted a series of photos to honor his big day -- including this throwback pic.
