SHE DESERVES IT ALL
TMZ.com

Beyonce deserves a million bucks whether or not she takes the stage at this year's Coachella, at least according to Flo Rida.

Flo Rida was leaving Madeo in West Hollywood when he explained Bey's put in the work to have her already well-lined pockets filled a bit more -- be it from promoters or her insurance company.

As we reported ... Beyonce's banking north of $1 million for her 2 day headlining gig, but if she bails due to carrying twins ... her insurance policy could still pay out 7 digits.

She should put Flo on the payroll as lead publicist.

Beyonce She Could Get Big Coachella Money Even if She's MIA

Beyonce could easily make a million dollars by laying in her bed during Coachella ... TMZ has learned.

Bey has not told the folks who produce the festival whether she'll be able to headline during the April event. It's unclear how far along she is in her pregnancy, but it seems 4 to 5 months would not be an unreasonable guess, which would mean she could be at least 6 months pregnant when she's scheduled to perform.

Sources connected with the festival, along with several huge 2016 performers, tell us Beyonce was set to make north of $1 mil for her two-night performance.

If Beyonce's pregnancy makes performing in April too risky, she could still collect her fee under a very common insurance policy written for entertainers.

According to one such policy, obtained by TMZ, the insurance company will pay the fee of a sidelined singer for "incapacity" ... which our lawyers say typically includes complications from a high-risk pregnancy.

Bey would need a rock solid doctor's note though. Y'know how insurance companies LOVE writing big checks.

Beyonce Coachella Performance 'Up in the Air'

Beyonce is not saying whether she'll perform at Coachella, and we've now learned she did NOT tell festival organizers she was pregnant when they announced she was headlining.

Goldenvoice -- a subsidiary of AEG Live which produces the event -- did not learn Beyonce was expecting twins until they saw it Wednesday on TMZ ... seriously.

Goldenvoice is playing it close to the vest, but our sources made it clear they're not thrilled they went out on a limb with the announcement, given this is a high-risk pregnancy. Bey is 35 and her first pregnancy with a single child was difficult, requiring bed rest.

Our sources say Goldenvoice still has no idea how far along she is, which obviously becomes a factor for the April event. In fact one source says Goldenvoice tried in vain Thursday to reach Bey or her reps.

A source connected with Beyonce told us the singer still plans to perform, assuming her pregnancy goes well.

That said, we're told Goldenvoice is not worried and doesn't feel pressure to find another headliner. We're told the festival was almost sold out before the January 3 lineup was announced.

As one source put it, Coachella is fluid in that Goldenvoice "constantly talks to bands," so a replacement won't be difficult if necessary.

Axl Rose Flips the Switch ... I'm in AC/DC Mode Now!

I ROCK AND ROLL
TMZ.com

Axl Rose is on to the next one ... his Guns N' Roses days are done -- for now -- and he's already got AC/DC on the brain.

We just got Axl cruising through LAX on one of those scooter thingys. Broken foot and all, he's jetting off to Europe to join his OTHER band. Of course, Axl is standing in for Brian Johnson during AC/DC's upcoming tour dates ... and he revealed which song he's most looking forward to belting out.

He'll be with AC/DC now through mid-June and then back to GNR to kick off their U.S. tour later that month.

As for the Guns shows at Coachella -- Axl says fans brought their A-game ... on one night, anyway.

Check it out ... he also had a few words about Prince.

Ariel Winter Coachella Rage ... Underboob

Ariel Winter ditched flower crowns and chokers and started a whole new Coachella trend on the final day of the festival.

The "Modern Family" star's top kept getting smaller throughout the weekend. To her defense, it gets hot in the desert and it doesn't hurt to always be pool ready.

Too bad the fest's only 3 days long.

Ariel Winter Hangin' Out At Coachella

Ariel Winter got right into the Coachella spirit ... combining some lace and ripped shorts for a barely-there outfit.

Winter was spotted strolling through the Californian festival grounds Friday with boyfriend Laurent Claude Gaudette.

We can't speak for Gaudette ... but we're guessing he'd give his gf two big thumbs up.

Disney's Kelli Berglund Busted at Coachella Too Young to Party Here

Kelli Berglund -- former star of Disney XD's "Lab Rats" -- got arrested at Coachella before the party even started.

Indio PD tells us 20-year-old Berglund was caught last Thursday night with a fake ID. Sources close to the actress tell us she was trying to get into a restricted area to meet up with friends when security spotted the fake and alerted the cops.

Tons of celebs and partygoers -- including Berglund -- showed up early to the Palm Springs area music festival, which didn't kick off until Friday.

We're told Kelli was issued a citation and released back into the wild to party her face off ... which she did. The little arrest thingy didn't stop her from hitting the Paper Magazine party the next night.

NFL's Josh Gordon Partying with Manziel at Coachella

Josh Gordon was part of Johnny Manziel's party crew at Coachella this weekend ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Johnny Manziel Partying with Drake ...'s Dad

Johnny Manziel went from 0 to 100 real quick at Coachella ... partying with Drake's dad!!

Check out these pics of Dennis Graham -- who was CRUSHING IT at Coachella this weekend ... not only hangin' with Manziel ... but also partying with Philadelphia 76ers prodigies Nerlens Noel and Joel Embiid.

No word on what he talked to Manziel and Noel about ... but with all of their off-the-field/court drama, maybe some good ol' fashioned fatherly advice?

It's possible ... but wait a sec, 'cause now he's with APOLLONIA!!!!

Drake's dad is a frickin' baller.

Guns N' Roses Coachella Goes Wild

It was all about Guns N' Roses Saturday at Coachella ... clearly the highlight of the festival.

Axl and the boys slayed with "Sweet Child O' Mine," and went on for an astounding 3 hours ... well, a skosh shy of 3 hours.

Axl was confined to his throne -- courtesy of fellow broken-legger Dave Grohl -- but midway through their set he brought on Angus Young, telling the crowd someone needed to jump around the stage.

BTW ... AC/DC announced Axl will be their lead singer for their world tour, because Brian Johnson was in such bad shape hearing-wise he was afraid he'd go deaf on the road.

Kesha Kills at Coachella

KESHA'S COACHELLA PERFORMANCE
TMZ.com

Kesha ended her self-imposed exile Saturday night, joining Zedd on stage at Coachella.

She hasn't performed since her feud with Sony and Dr. Luke erupted, but it was just like riding a bike, because she sounds awesome.

Unclear if there's any symbolism in her song choice ... "True Colors."

Coachella Axl and Cube Front and Center But No NWA

Coachella was the place for music Saturday, with an awesome lineup.

Axl, O'Shea Jackson, Ice Cube, Zedd, Kesha, Snoop, Skrillex and lots of others performers hit the stage .. and no one failed to please.

BTW ... NWA was not fully there ... DJ Yella and MC Ren joined Cube for "Straight Outta Compton," and "F the Police," but Dre was a no show.

Coachella Day 2 More Turnt Up

Coachella was a little less yuppy Day 2, at least based on the videos shot by members of TMZ.

A bunch of our staff is at the festival, and the stuff they shot on Day 1 looked a little too Santa Monica.

But the festival is now in the groove ... lots of booze, trippy guitar solos and the obligatory disco ball.

Come back safe.

Kim Kardashian I'll Help You Get High at Coachella

Kim Kardashian just made it easier for stoners to get high at Coachella.

Kim dropped a list of essential festival items on her website that included the cigarette style design pipe that allows stoners to smoke on the down-low for just $6.36.

The folks at Grasscity.com -- the site linked to the Digger One Hitter -- tell us they received more than 500 orders in 1 day ... more than 16 times what they normally get.

Another Kim essential ... the GenTeal eye drops.

WHEN NATURE CALLS
TMZ.com

Chanel West Coast is happy to TALK about dropping a deuce at Coachella ... as long as it's only talk because she has some very strict rules about the music fest and porta-potties.

We got the "Ridiculousness" star right after she did some pre 'chella prep at a tanning salon, and she spoke openly -- maybe too much -- about her phobia.

Check out CWC's revelation ... and a little explanation for her now infamous "Don't You Know Who I Am" incident last year at Coachella.

Our advice for Chanel: Eat nothing. Drink very little.
