Controversial S#!T

Kanye West está siendo llevado a los tribunales por un ex empleado que alega que Ye tenía algunos planes abiertamente extraños para los niños que asisten a su academia Donda, y que también adoptó una retórica abiertamente antisemita en la escuela.

Trevor Phillips acaba de presentar una demanda contra Kanye West diciendo que fue reclutado por la organización de Yeezy a finales de 2022, justo cuando la controversia por el antisemitismo de Ye estaba en su punto máximo, y explica que estuvo a cargo de hacer crecer la producción de algodón para la línea de moda de Kanye.

Sin embargo, de acuerdo con los documentos obtenidos por TMZ, Phillips afirma que sus funciones se expandieron rápidamente y comenzó a abarcar el manejo de la escuela Donda Academy de Ye, que según él, comenzó a experimentar algunas dificultades luego de los desplantes públicos de Kanye.

Kanye West is being taken to court by a former employee who's claiming Ye openly had some bizarre plans for kids attending his Donda academy ... and openly espoused antisemitic rhetoric at the school.

Trevor Phillips just filed suit against KW ... saying he was brought on to the Yeezy org in late 2022 -- right around the time Ye's antisemitism controversy reached its peak -- and explains he was tasked with growing the cotton production for Kanye's fashion line.

However, according to the docs, obtained by TMZ, Phillips claims his duties quickly expanded and started to encompass handling Ye's Donda Academy school as well, which he says started to experience difficulty as a result of Kanye's public rants.

Somebody recently suggested that "Saturday Night Live" has no hot women among its cast members -- but a couple female staffers care to differ ... albeit, very jokingly.

TikToker Jahelis posted a video that has since made the rounds -- and it's all over a claim she makes that the famed sketch comedy show really doesn't hire conventionally attractive women ... theorizing it's because people refuse to accept the fact hot women can also be funny.

She specifically called out current 'SNL' cast member Heidi Gardner as an example ... saying the 40-year-old comedian is always forced to play the dumb blonde character, even though -- in her opinion -- HG isn't really attractive ... but is probably the best they have in the lineup.

Caitlin Clark ... that's why Angel Reese is famous, according to Jason Whitlock who says the LSU hooper only got big 'cause she taunted the Iowa superstar -- no more, no less.

The polarizing columnist and host shared his harsh opinion after Reese -- the SEC Player of the Year -- and the Tigers lost to the Hawkeyes in the Elite Eight of the Women's NCAA tournament on Monday.

Clark was unstoppable ... leading all scoring with 41 points. Reese put up her 27th double-double of the season (17 points and 20 rebounds) ... but that didn't change JW's opinion.

"We can officially quit putting Angel Reese on Caitlin Clark's level," the 56-year-old said. "Stop it."

"One is an all-time great player. The other got famous for taunting. The rivalry is dead."

Of course, Whitlock is referencing to last tourney's memorable moment ... when Angel mocked Caitlin during the title game, which LSU won, 102-85.

AR also used John Cena's famous "You Can't See Me" hand gesture ... something Clark had previously employed.

Reese became a big star after the calendar flipped on March Madness ... and has since been everywhere, including the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.

But, it's clearly taken a toll on her. Following the end of LSU's season last night, Reese talked about some of the struggles since becoming famous.

As for Clark, she's in the process of collecting just about every record that exists ... but she hasn't won a title (yet).

Cuba Gooding Jr. was in Miami this past weekend -- the same place Diddy has been amid an ongoing federal investigation ... interesting considering their alleged connection.

TMZ obtained a photo of Cuba in South Beach on Easter Sunday, and as you can see ... he's by his lonesome on the back of a golf cart, which is advertising yacht rentals, and there are 2 unknown fellas sitting up front.

Cuba looks relaxed with his shades on as he peruses his phone -- and yes, he's certainly dressed for a festive sunny day in the Sunshine State.

Ryan Garcia might be causing a ruckus on the internet, but there's one guy who's sticking by his side no matter what -- 'cause Canelo Alvarez tells TMZ Sports he's got the young superstar's back amid his bizarre social media antics.

"You know, he's a good kid and we don't need to judge him," Canelo told TMZ Sports. "He's a good kid and this is the moment when you need to support your friends and, I know, we have a lot of issues before but ... I don't care."

Of course, Ryan has been making a ton of noise leading up to his April 20 fight against Devin Haney ... spewing wild conspiracies and promising free BBLs -- among other wild proclamations.

7:01 PM PT -- Charlotte-Mecklenburg PD tells TMZ that the delivery driver in question did in fact claim self-defense on this matter ... and it sounds like the cops are letting it be.

They say, "The investigation revealed that a delivery driver arrived at the residence to deliver consumable goods. The driver told officers that a dog attacked him while he was at the residence and that he defended himself by firing a single gunshot, striking and mortally wounding the dog. Another dog was present at the residence but did not attack."

They go on to say that no criminal charges have been filed over this, and that CMPD's Animal Control got in the mix as well. They're not seeking out any other parties either.

Angie Harmon is devastated after her dog, Oliver, was shot and killed by a deliveryman over Easter weekend.

The journalist who called LSU women's basketball players "dirty debutantes" in a column last week has just issued an apology ... admitting, "I have failed miserably in my choice of words."

Ben Bolch wrote the controversial piece for the Los Angeles Times last Friday ... and it was almost immediately met with backlash. Critics slammed the way he compared the UCLA women's basketball team to "milk and cookies," while calling the Tigers' players "Louisiana hot sauce" -- insisting it was both racist and misogynistic.

In fact, LSU coach Kim Mulkey and her star player, Hailey Van Lith, were so offended by the article, they both used portions of their meetings with media members over the weekend to rail against Bolch.

The reporter clearly heard the criticism ... because on Monday afternoon, he issued a lengthy mea culpa.

In his statement -- which he posted to his X page -- Bolch acknowledged his words were "not appropriate" and were "deeply offensive."

"It was not my intent to be hurtful," he said, adding his employer did not require him to write the note, "but I now understand that I terribly missed the mark."

He concluded his message by writing, "I am deeply sorry."

For the L.A. Times' part, they swapped out portions of Bolch's original article ... writing in an editor's note, "The original version of this commentary did not meet Times editorial standards. It has been edited to remove language that was inappropriate and offensive."

Rebel Wilson claims Adele hates her guts — and it all has to do with size comparisons people used to make about them.

In a new excerpt from RW's upcoming book -- obtained by Us Weekly -- the actress reveals the Grammy winner likely isn't her biggest fan ... as the two were juxtaposed quite a bit over the years.

While Rebel admits she has never confronted Adele directly about the alleged hate, she does say Adele would avoid her like the plague at industry events … which seems to be why she thinks Adele doesn’t like her.

Hemos obtenido nuevas fotos del accidente automovilístico en el que la policía dice que estuvo involucrado el vehículo de Rashee Rice. Ahora se puede ver como algunos pasajeros salen del carro.

Échale un vistazo a estas fotos que conseguimos de accidente del sábado en la autopista North Central. Nos dicen que estas fueron tomadas inmediatamente después del accidente, el cual afectó a varios vehículos. Se puede ver lo grave que fue por los daños causados.

The car accident that cops say Rashee Rice's vehicle was involved in was a mess on the side of a freeway in Dallas -- which you can now see in these photos from the scene we've obtained, including what we're told are some of the occupants beelining it out of there.

Check out these pics we got a hold of from Saturday's wreck on the North Central Expressway. We're told these were taken in the immediate aftermath of the accident -- which affected several vehicles, per police -- and you can tell how bad it was by the damage done.

Not only do you see what it all looked like once first responders arrived ... but eyewitnesses tell us these photos also capture some of the guys who were allegedly in the 2 cars involved in causing this mess -- and you can see them casually leaving the scene.

50 Cent took another shot at his ex Daphne Joy ... continuing to suggest she’s a “sex worker,” only now at a Nicki Minaj show.

Fiddy joined NM on stage during her show at Madison Square Garden Saturday night -- and he used his moment in the spotlight to call out his love for "sex workers" ... a clear dig at his baby mama.

He said the phrase quickly on the mic, but the audience heard it … and got a kick out of it too, it seems.

Caitlyn Jenner is blasting President Biden over what she seems to think is a coordinated effort to conflate a Christian holiday with a day that also celebrates transgender people.

The reality star sounded off on Saturday -- a day before International Transgender Day of Visibility, which just so happens to fall on Easter this year -- and took aim at Joe specifically ... as it appears she believes he might've made one land on the other on purpose.

She writes, "I am absolutely disgusted that Joe Biden has declared the most Holy of Holy days - a self proclaimed devout Catholic - as Transgender Day of Visibility. The only thing you should be declaring on this day is ‘HE is Risen’."

Chef Stuart O'Keeffe is popping off on all the behind-the-scenes drama on Netflix's "Queer Eye" ... especially since he was initially cast to be one of the Fab 5 before production gave him the boot.

We got Stu leaving Pastis in NYC ... and he tells us he's glad he didn't end up being part of the series after the Rolling Stone article unveiled all the mean girl vibes behind the scenes -- which is particularly dicey since the show's all about changing people's lives for the better.

Stu's also questioning how "Queer Eye" can continue shooting another season and convince viewers they're a tight-knit, unified team ready to lend a helping hand. Remember, the expose alleged there was no love lost between the show's leads, Antoni Porowski, Bobby Berk, Jonathan Van Ness, Karamo Brown and Tan France.

Matthew Underwood is speaking up on 'Quiet on Set' -- and while he says he himself was never mistreated while working as a child star ... he claims he's been harmed in the industry.

The "Zoey 101" star posted a lengthy statement Friday on his social accounts that addressed why he hadn't said anything publicly about the new doc -- which chronicles different allegations levied by former child stars with the network -- and he explains his rationale.

MU writes, "We all want to live in a better world. That requires all of us to treat each other with empathy and not make assumptions about people’s personal experiences."

Ezra Miller's superhero days are over -- at least as far as Amazon Prime animation goes ... 'cause their role in a huge hit show has been recast, and it happened under the radar.

The actor's portrayal of mad scientist D.A. Sinclair on "Invincible" -- in which Ezra only voice acted for one episode in the first season -- has been scrapped in favor of another actor, Eric Bauza ... whose other credits include "X-Men '97," "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and more.

The character showed up again in a new episode this week for Season 2 ... but instead of Ezra's voice, fans heard Eric's instead ... and the switcheroo occurred quietly, it seems.
