Celebrity Feuds

Drake promised to keep summer playlists popping after backing off from his Kendrick Lamar beef -- and that moment appears to be here courtesy of his longtime homie Gordo's "Diamante" album!!!

The new project was released on Friday and boasts not 1 but 2 new Drake records ... beginning on the album's second track "Sideways" and the final song "Healing."

The songs take on an island theme with Drake harmonizing about fleeting relationships ... a continuation of Drake's 2022 album "Honestly Nevermind" where Gordo produced multiple songs.

"Hawk Tuah" girl Haliey Welch is swinging back at Nick Kyrgios ... she says she doesn't wake up in the morning and hate on other people, unlike the tennis star!!!

We got the viral sensation at Beverly Hot Springs in L.A. and our photog asked her about Nick saying there's no longer a correlation between fame and talent.

Haliey -- who went viral for her street interview response, referencing fellatio in her unique way -- tells us she's not going to let Nick get under her skin.

Latto recently suggested Ice Spice wouldn't entertain a lyrical rap battle with her and turns out she was right ... but not for reasons she originally thought.

Sorry Latto, Ice thinks your entire beef is nothing but a lame marketing ploy!!!

The Bronx-born, 'Munch' creator is the latest cover star for Rolling Stone to promote her upcoming "Y2K!" album, where she slammed Latto for using her headlining Birthday Bash concert in her Atlanta hometown to fan flames she claims were never sparking to begin with!!! 😫

Gilbert Arenas is issuing a direct mea culpa to Luol Deng for his xenophobic comments about South Sudan's men's basketball team ... this after the African former NBA star released a powerful statement addressing the whole ordeal.

As we previously reported, Arenas faced a ton of backlash for going on an offensive rant on Saturday ... shortly after LeBron James and Team USA squeaked by South Sudan prior to the Olympics. Celtics legend Paul Pierce also found himself in hot water for making similar remarks during an appearance on "Undisputed."

The ex-Bulls and Lakers forward -- who serves as the president of the South Sudan Basketball Federation -- broke his silence on both Arenas and Pierce's controversial words directed at his native country's team ... saying he wasn't upset or angry by their words, but more "disappointed" it came from two former colleagues he's always respected.

Iggy Azalea says she considers herself to be a single mom to the kid she shares with Playboi Carti -- going so far as to claim she's not co-parenting whatsoever.

The Aussie rapper -- who birthed her and Carti's son, Onyx, in 2020 -- hopped on the 'Dinner's On Me' podcast this week and was asked point blank about her family dynamic ... and Iggy made no bones about the fact she believes she's on her own in parenting.

Iggy says, "I'm very much a single mother. I'm very much the only parent, no disrespect, but yes, I am not co-parenting really, and that's just the reality of it. It's one, it's 24/7."

Drake jetted out of L.A. in exchange for his OG home bases of Toronto and Texas ... but his "California Love" and admiration for Tupac Shakur remains intact!!!

Drake posted a selfie Monday night showing himself in a green, airbrushed Tupac "Only God Can Judge" t-shirt ... complete with a pair of sparkling emerald-colored Timbaland boots to match.

An interesting wardrobe choice considering the Tupac estate went the extra distance to block Drake from using the "AI 2Pac" bars heard on his Kendrick Lamar diss "Taylor Made Freestyle."

Big Sean just had a major setback for his major comeback ... hackers leaked the foundations for his new album ... and claimed they did it to avenge Kanye West!!!

If you recall, Sean recently set the record straight against DJ Akademiks' allegations that he was dissing Kendrick Lamar  ... further clarified by DJ Hed that Sean's shots were actually reserved for Kanye!!!

Shortly after, a collection of tracks titled "Feelings & Random Thots" featuring artists such as Nas, Hit-Boy and The-Dream was planted on message boards ... along with the cryptic message that it was middle fingers to him and the entire team!!!

Early this morning, Sean hopped on IG Live and admitted the leak crushed his soul a bit ... the songs were just templates and experiments and he felt a little exposed having that in the public's eye.

Sean wouldn't buy into the hype that Ye was responsible, however ... he sold MILLIONS of records underneath the Good Music umbrella -- their history is deep-rooted!!!

Tom Sandoval says he didn't mean to sue his ex, Ariana Madix, and is now withdrawing his lawsuit ... putting the blame on one of his lawyers.

The "Vanderpump Rules" star took to social media Thursday to clear up the legal action he took against AM -- where he countersued her in the case Rachel Leviss brought against him and Ariana regarding alleged revenge porn -- and made it clear ... this was a mistake.

Tom claims one of his attorneys told him about a cross-complaint -- and, allegedly, told him what he was about to file is customary ... with Tom saying he urged him to sign off on it, which Tom says he did ... albeit, unwittingly, or so he insists.

Cardi B had time for Joe Budden today and she cleaned the podcaster's clock -- metaphorically speaking -- for discussing her stalled album one too many times.

On the latest episode of "JBP," Cardi's 6-year album delay came up and Joe used his psychic powers to predict she'll be a singles artist ... FOREVER. He also joked no one wants her to release an album more than Offset --- if only to get her out of the house.

To his credit, Offset was the first to push for Cardi to release the album this year ... it's been too long!!!

Shannen Doherty appeared to make peace with longtime frenemy Alyssa Milano before her death ... as she doled out surprising praise for the actress in her final days.

The actress recorded an episode for the "House of Halliwell" podcast with "Charmed" costar Holly Marie Combs, which was released July 14, the day after Shannen died. During the episode, Shannen reflected on actress Lori Rom originally playing Phoebe Halliwell in an unaired "Charmed" pilot -- with the role later going to Alyssa.

Despite their decades-long feud, Shannen praised Alyssa for bringing some much-needed levity to the supernatural drama.

Britney Spears has some words for Ozzy Osbourne after he crapped all over her free-spirited dance videos -- and in the same breath ... she's sticking up for Kate Beckinsale.

The pop star went off on the Black Sabbath rocker Wednesday -- not long after Ozzy aired out his opinion on BS's habit of throwing up dance clips of herself at home ... where she's often twirling around and wearing hardly anything at all.

Britney starts out by defending Kate, writing ... "I adore Kate Beckinsale especially because she's from London. I realized how incredibly cruel people were talking about her IG saying she needs more age-appropriate content."

Big Sean is denying his latest lyrical assaults are aimed at Kendrick Lamar -- a narrative he's blaming DJ Akademiks for drumming up the dumbness!!!

The Detroit rapper resumed his comeback this week on the coveted "On The Radar" freestyle series over Aaliyah and Timbaland's "If Your Girl Only Knew" track ... and Ak promoted the lyrics, “I got better things to do than find someone to beef with" as a K. Dot jab.

Ak's exact quote "BIG SEAN COOKED KENDRICK" spread on social media like wildfire, spurring discussion that Sean Don was ready to challenge K. Dot for the reigning rap throne!!!

Soulja Boy's opting to take a page out of the 2024 Rap Wars ... by dissing Drake to promote a new project!!

The 'Crank That' rapper is releasing his new album "Swag Season" later this month ... a point revealed in his recent line of posts, where he takes big swipes at Drake!!!

On Tuesday, SB scolded Drake similarly to how Kendrick Lamar did on the last verse of “Not Like Us” ... suggesting all his homies abandoned him.

Alyssa Milano isn't sugarcoating her ties with Shannen Doherty ... acknowledging they had a complex relationship -- but, making it clear the world's worse off without her.

The actress spoke with Page Six Sunday just hours after Shannen passed away following a fierce cancer battle ... admitting to the outlet her relationship with the late actress wasn't always easy.

Milano says, "It’s no secret that Shannen and I had a complicated relationship, but at its core was someone I deeply respected and was in awe of. She was a talented actress, beloved by many, and the world is less without her. My condolences to all who loved her"

Billy Ray Cyrus and his estranged wife Firerose are fighting over money as their divorce gets nastier ... and now a judge just ordered she has to stop using his credit cards.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, a judge ruled Billy Ray's estranged wife can no longer use his American Express business account, or any other credit card account he or his business owns.

A source close to Firerose claims to us Billy spent the first part of this whole ordeal accusing her of fraud, which was found to be untrue. One of the many falsehoods he’s put out there that one can now point back to and clearly see were lies.

As we reported ... Billy Ray claims Firerose made 37 unauthorized charges on his American Express business credit card between May 23 and June 7 ... totaling a cool $96,986.05.

Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" video brought big business to his hometown fast-food spot and its owner says the Compton rapper has his pick of the menu -- for life!!!

TMZ Hip Hop spoke with Spiro Vovos, owner of Tam's Burgers this week and he tells us the first few days following the premiere of "Not Like Us" on July 4 were exciting, to say the least.

Kendrick and Mustard shot several scenes in front and inside the Compton Tam's ... Spiro says the euphoria has died down a bit but their managers tallied upwards of 40% increases at one point!!!
