Musk & Bezos 2 Billionaires Walk into a F1 Race ... Who Comes Out Ahead?!?

Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos were on the same Formula One turf this weekend -- and seeing how they didn't cross paths ... it would seem Miami's big enough for the two of them.

The mega-billionaires paid a visit Saturday to the 2023 Formula One Miami Grand Prix at the Miami International Autodrome ... where they visited different garages and took in the sights -- separate from one another -- for the final practice laps ahead of the main event Sunday.

Jeff and Lauren Sanchez hit up the McLaren pit wall... and looked very much like the power couple they often seem to be. The pair was hand in hand and rocking orange lanyards.

Elon, meanwhile, also brought along some company for his trip to Red Bull squad's station ... looks like his young son, X, was the special guest of honor -- and could be seen hanging on tight to his pops while getting an up-close view of the race cars and drivers. Lucky kid.

Now, as far as 'fits go ... you might argue Jeff was looking a little more stylish than his Tesla counterpart -- who was wearing a straight-up dad hat, sans any other accessories.

Again, there's no indication JB and EM saw each other. To be honest, it's unclear what their private relationship is like ... but we know they've interacted online, and perhaps even BTS. In any case, it's a classic case of When Worlds Collide ... although, here -- little to no contact.

Coronation Rehearsals Subjects Camp Out in Wacky Outfits Ahead of Big Day! 👑

It's just one more sleep until King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla's coronation ... and royal superfans waiting patiently for the big day are getting campy as the royal fam goes through its final rehearsal.

Charles, Camilla, and Prince William were back at Westminster Abbey Friday -- while the folks looking forward to Saturday's ceremony have already started to camp out ... and it's clear a little rain won't stop them!

There are some unique costumes in the mix -- from one dude puttin' the British flag everywhere to another rockin' a shiny jacket with Charles and Camilla's mugs on it!

Another royal subject shut out the rain with a Union Jack-themed poncho!

And it ain't just the UK showing up in support -- First Lady Jill Biden also arrived in London Friday ahead of tomorrow's festivities.

As we reported, William, Kate Middleton, and their kiddos have been driving to and from Westminster all week for rehearsals. Harry hasn't been seen yet, but he's likely there by now, with less than 24 hours before his father's big day.

And, here's a quick reminder the ascending monarch wasn't always 74. Get it, King!!!

John Legend Hey Megyn Kelly, Here's The Attention You Ordered ... Chrissy Attack Is Desperate

TMZ.com

John Legend is firing back at Megyn Kelly for going after his wife, Chrissy Teigen ... he says Megyn is desperate to get conservatives back on her side.

We got John at MÍRAME in Beverly Hills Thursday, and asked him about Megyn's negative reaction to Chrissy's outfit for the White House Correspondents Dinner ... and the singer didn't hold back.

John says Megyn's critique is a gross attempt for attention, which he says she needs now that she's no longer working for FOX.

What's more, John thinks Megyn is going after Chrissy in an attempt to win back Donald Trump supporters.

ICYMI ... Megyn ripped Chrissy's dress, labeling Teigen "elitist" for having "minions" and "serfs" holding the train of her dress. Megyn also chided Chrissy for exposing her underwear with a sheer fabric gown.

John says Megyn sounds desperate and should just shut up ... and he defends his wife as being kind, loving and down to Earth.

While John admits it's not normal to have people carrying someone's dress train down the street, he says it's just part of the deal when Chrissy goes to a big event.

Kanye West Milo Yiannopoulos Back Leading YE24 Campaign ... Nick Fuentes Booted

Kanye West is full steam ahead on his presidential campaign, bringing his former collaborator Milo Yiannopoulos back into the mix, and their first order of business ... firing Ye's controversial right-hand man, Nick Fuentes.

TMZ obtained emails sent from Milo -- now officially YE2024's Director of Political Operations -- to Nick, and in one he says, "Your services on Ye’s exploratory team are terminated ... and will not be required for any possible future campaign."

You'll recall, Nick is the white nationalist who accompanied West during his trip to see Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago last fall.

Milo also fired off an exit email to Ali Alexander, another one of Ye's political advisors, who was recently forced to apologize after being accused of asking teenage boys for sexual pictures.

We reached out to Milo, and he confirmed the details in the e-mails. He also says he's been in L.A. for the past week, talking to Ye about his presidential aspirations.

You'll recall, Milo was reportedly removed from the campaign team last year after Ye's controversial interview with Alex Jones ... and he reportedly blamed Nick and Ali for his firing.

Now that Milo's back in the saddle, it would seem his next mission is finding out just how serious Ye is about running for the White House -- and, after that, addressing the antisemitism West spewed for months.

That ridiculous Jonah Hill theory he floated won't cut it on the campaign trail.

A$AP Rocky Sorry for Shoving in Met Gala Madness ... Leap-Frogged Female Fan

A$AP Rocky is apologizing to the woman he leaned heavily on, for just a moment, so he could cut through a huge NYC crowd and get to the Met Gala.

The wild scene went down Monday evening outside NYC's Carlyle Hotel where Rocky pushed through a flood of fans and autograph seekers who didn't recognize the Harlem rap star at first ... until he leaped over the barrier.

But, in order to make it over, he used a woman's shoulder to get a boost.

She was later identified as Long Island native Madelyn Llanes and in an interview she admitted to initially refusing Rocky's request for passage because she was standing at the barricade, which was the end of the road as far as she was concerned.

Obviously, Rocky found a detour and the rest of the story is unforgettable fan history for her!!!

As we previously reported, Rocky and Rihanna were more than 2 hours late to the Met Gala but still maximized the moonlight ... partying all the way to dawn and then some.

Teyana Taylor Crashes Met Gala With Chick-fil-A ... Usher & Pusha T Like 🤦🏿‍♂️!!!

FANCY FEAST
Instagram / @kingpush, @teyanataylor

Teyana Taylor didn't even give herself a chance to hate the food at this year's Met Gala ... she brought her own meal to the deal, a full Chick-fil-A combo that turned heads at her table!!!

A brazen Teyana plopped the fried food on her supplied dinner plate and the evening's menu which included salmon, asparagus and baby vegetables in lemon crème fraiche ... yummy!!! 😝

The R&B singer was put on blast by her ex-Good Music labelmate Pusha T for her spread of chicken tenders and waffle fries paired with Polynesian Sauce. He jokingly (we think) quipped she was embarrassing the tribe.

Usher later popped up on the table and playfully concealed Teyana's unauthorized eats ... but she continued to munch on unbothered.

As Teyana sees it, the boys were jealous because they were left with a measly-looking pea porridge while the boneless and breaded goodness was all for her!!!

Last year, Lizzo went on an epic rant about the 2022 Met Gala ... especially how terrible the food was. Teyana must've seen that and decided to control her own food destiny!

Bad Bunny and Kendall Jenner are without question an item ... the two were seen all around NYC together following the Met Gala.

The Puerto Rican rapper and the supermodel showed up arm and arm to a private soiree and then later returned to a swanky Manhattan hotel with Kendall's sisters, Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner.

Check out video, obtained by TMZ, which shows Kendall and Bad Bunny strolling side by side to the party with paparazzi in tow. KJ and BB were obviously enjoying each other's company, smiling and chatting with one another. By the way, KJ was dressed to kill in a sequined black bodysuit showing off her incredible physique.

When the two arrived back at their hotel after the Met, Kendall filed out of their ride first and walked inside the hotel with Bad Bunny several steps behind her. Although the two were not seen in the same frame, they did end up in the same place.

Same thing happened earlier in the day when they both arrived separately at the Metropolitan Museum of Art for the Met Gala.

As you might know, the pair have been spending a lot of time together since February when they were first spotted with one another.

Kendrick Lamar Big Steppin' at Met Gala With Jack Harlow & Stormzy!!!

Kendrick Lamar's breaking from his reclusive ways in a big way ... not only showing up at the Met Gala, but he even stopped to pose for photos with some other MCs.

He wound up kicking it Monday night with fellow rhyme sayers Jack Harlow and Stormzy during the fashion first event. Kendrick was rocking a sleek Chanel fit accented with a red bandana as he was flanked by the other 2 artists.

Jack and Stormyz also cleaned up nicely in their dapper blue suits all the same.

Kendrick is notoriously low on words, but if a picture's worth a thousand of 'em ... his respect for Stormzy and Jack's MC skills runs deep!!!

Jack just released his lyrical-leaning "Jackman" album, and Stormzy is set to headline the Rocking the Daisies Festival in South Africa later this year ... so K-Dot's keeping good company, even if just for a quick photo!!!

Speaking of live shows, Kendrick's 2022 "Big Steppers Tour" recently became the highest-grossing rap tour of all time, raking in $110.9 million from its 73 shows.

There's no telling what Kendrick has in store for the current year but you can bet it'll happen without warning!!!

Met Gala 2023 Celebs Bring The Fashion To The After-Parties!!!

The 2023 Met Gala was packed to the brim with stars rocking some incredible outfits ... but they didn't pack it in once the show was over ... they flocked to of the biggest after-parties of the year!

A few shindigs went down after Monday night's festivities, and the big names were spread out ... with some going to Zero Bond, others hitting up the Standard Hotel, while folks like Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny partied it up at a private residence -- and yes, those 2 went together. 👀

Dua Lipa was spotted out at one of the many bashes -- all smiles after being one of the Gala's cohosts, and shocking the crowd with a massive 100-carat diamond necklace!

Olivia Rodrigo went for an Audrey Hepburn look on the carpet ... but took to the Standard afterward to have some fun with other stars like Lil Nas X, Lea Michele, Nick Jonas, and Priyanka Chopra.

The celebs were all having a blast during fashion's biggest night -- Lizzo was twerkin' up a storm and Brian Tyree Henry was cutting loose behind the scenes!

Diddy at Met Gala Sweatin' Bullets Over Yung Miami 😅 Is it the Fit or the Questions?!?

Diddy and Yung Miami are turning heads once again ... showing up at the Met Gala together, and shocking everyone, because the City Girls rapper just said their dating chapter had come to a close!!!

On their way inside, La La Anthony asked Diddy about his fashionable reunion with Miami, and the Love Records mogul could barely speak. Flustered and out of breath -- with Miami standing right there -- he had to wipe down his brow before finally saying, "We definitely go together, real bad!"

Mind you, the sweat was still pouring down on his face.

To be fair, Diddy had just climbed the gala's famed staircase while wearing a very heavy ensemble. As expected, Diddy went all out to honor both Karl Lagerfeld and André Leon Talley in a custom, king-sized Sean John robe created by June Ambrose.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

After catching his bearings, Diddy explained to La La that he and Miami don't want to put labels on their situation, but he called her his "best friend" and said he was "blessed" to have her as his date.

Then he asked for a cloth to mop up his perspiration.

Diddy and Miami were very much in the public eye together until last October when the hit-making producer welcomed a baby daughter with another woman ... a moment Miami admitted fractured their union.

Hope -- and Love, apparently -- springs eternal!

Kim Kardashian Runs Into Ex Pete Davidson At Met Gala ... No Tension, Good Vibes

Kim Kardashian could have had an awkward moment when she bumped into her ex Pete Davidson at the 2023 Met Gala ... but the former lovebirds seemed to be in a good space.

Kim and Pete were photographed hanging out with singer Usher at the celebrity-studded event, which kicked off Monday at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC.

One picture showed Kim chatting with Pete whose eyes were totally transfixed on the reality star. In another photo, Kim shared a light moment with Usher and Pete, who cracked a broad smile. Clearly, there were good vibes.

All three were dressed to the nines, but Kim was the epitome of glamour. In fact, she looked like a starlet in her corseted Schiaparelli gown with pearl necklaces wrapped around her neck.

But, later she seemed to be dropping pearls ... and we don't mean wisdom. The lower part of the dress was falling apart as she returned to her hotel after the festivities.

Meanwhile, Kim's little get-together with Pete was a coming home of sorts. The two made a splash at last year's Met Gala when they were pictured sharing a kiss on the museum steps while still in a relationship.

As you might recall, Kim started dating Pete after they hit it off on the set of "Saturday Night Live" in October 2021. At the time, Pete was a comedian on the show and Kim hosted one of the episodes.

But their romance fizzled after 9 months due mainly to their busy work schedules, which made it hard for them to see each other.

Pete is now seeing actress Chase Sui Wonders and the two seem to be going strong. Kim, on the other hand, is currently single.

Patrick Mahomes, Brittany Hit Met Gala In NYC ... Still High Off Super Bowl

It's been over 2 months since the Chiefs won the Super Bowl, but Patrick Mahomes is still livin' it up, hitting the 2023 Met Gala with his wife Brittany, and they looked fabulous!

The Kansas City Chiefs superstar and his wife walked the red carpet at the world's most famous fashion event in Manhattan on Monday for the "Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty" themed night.

Mahomes opted for a classic look, smooth black tuxedo made by Hugo Boss, along with loafers and a pair of dark shades.

Brittany wore an elegant off-the-shoulder gown with silver sequins and a thigh-high slit. As for her hair ... Artistry by LB gave her a natural look, placing her hair in a sleek bun.

Brittany -- who married Mahomes last March -- considered it the perfect "date night".

Fans, friends, and family loved the get up ... including Patrick's brother, Jackson, who said on Instagram, "BEST PHOTO EVER. SO GLAD YOU GUYS WENT!!"

Of course, the Mahomes weren't the only sports celebs at the gala ... Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union partook in this year's festivities. Serena Williams also attended and broke some huge news ... revealing she's pregnant with her 2nd child, and showing off her baby bump.

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky were 2 hours late to the Met Gala but apparently wanted to squeeze the life out of their Met Gala after-party experience ... leaving the Remedy Diner in the wee hours of Tuesday morning!!!

The couple hazily greeted cameras early Tuesday morning, Rihanna dressed in white and Rocky in a trench coat while sporting a gigantic J in his mouth.

Rihanna, who recently revealed she's in her third trimester, didn't seem to let pregnancy slow her down at all ... as she was clearly able to keep up well into the night -- and morning.

The pair were the talk of the Met, with some wondering if they were even going to show face, but all was made right when they finally graced the carpet -- 2 hours late.

No word on what Rihanna and Rocky have planned for Tuesday, but we're assuming most of their AM schedule will be dedicated to getting some serious sleep!!!

Brittney Griner All Smiles With Wife At Met Gala

Brittney Griner clearly isn't taking her newfound freedom for granted ... she hit up the Met Gala with her wife on Monday night -- and didn't seem to stop smiling once.

The 32-year-old -- who was freed from Russian custody just five months ago -- wore a custom Calvin Klein suit for the occasion ... and couldn't have been happier to be with her spouse at the ultra-exclusive party.

She and Cherelle Griner flashed ear-to-ear grins for the entirety of their walk into the event ... and at one point, BG even shared a sweet embrace with Dwyane Wade on the red carpet.

The two basketball legends hugged it out while Wade was showing his daughter how everything looked on the Met's steps.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Brittney and Cherelle later spoke about their Met Gala experience with Vogue ... and it isn't hard to see they were thoroughly enjoying their time together after their tumultuous 2022.

"It's surreal still," Cherelle said. "This time last year, I was missing my wife. So to have her right here, to be in this moment -- breathtaking."

Brittney also took time at the event to raise awareness for the Bring Our Families Home campaign.

The trip to the Met is just one of many cool moments Brittney has gotten to experience since she was swapped for Viktor Bout back in early December ... she's also rubbed elbows with President Joe Biden, started to write a book on her Russian detainment -- and returned to WNBA practices.

Up next for BG is her official comeback to game action -- she and the Phoenix Mercury will open their season on May 19 against the Los Angeles Sparks.

Met Gala 2023 Stars Arrive to Fashion's Biggest Night!!!

The Super Bowl of fashion is here ... celebs are flocking to the Met Gala, each making a grand entrance draped in some of the world's most luxurious designers.

The annual event is going down right now in NYC at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where Penelope Cruz, Dua Lipa, Roger Federer and Michaela Coel are serving as co-chairs alongside Anna Wintour.

This year's Met Gala theme honors Karl Lagerfeld, the late iconic fashion designer ... and celebs are wearing pieces from the fashion houses where Karl worked ... including Chanel, Balmain, Chloé and Fendi.

The invitation-only gala features a star-studded guest list, and celebs are starting to pour in ... we've already seen Emily Ratajowski, Emma Chamberlain, Phoebe Bridgers and Rita Ora.

There's a lot of hype around Gisele Bundchen's appearance ... she's at the Met Gala for the first time as a single woman since 2006, following her split from Tom Brady, wearing Chanel as a nod to her working history with Karl, which includes her becoming the face of Chanel N°5 perfume back in the day.

Paris Hilton is attending the Met Gala for the first time in her life ... which is fitting because she used to be really close with Karl.

Ice Spice is another first-timer ... Anna personally invited the rapper as a guest of Vogue, and she's wearing a custom Balmain piece.

We'll keep adding pics as more stars arrive ... and we'll see who arrives fashionably late.

Serena Williams I'm Pregnant!!! Baby #2 Debuts at Met Gala

Serena Williams just dropped a bombshell at the Met Gala, but it's got nothing to do with tennis or fashion ... she's got another baby on the way!

The retired tennis superstar revealed her pregnancy as she and husband Alexis Ohanian arrived at the gala -- and just to make sure everyone got it, he put his hand on her baby bump.

Guess they didn't want folks guessing about what they were seeing ... a la Rihanna during her Super Bowl Halftime surprise announcement.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Serena also made it official on social media, posting a bunch of pics with the caption, "Was so excited when Anna Wintour invited the 3 of us to the Met Gala."

This will be the second baby for Serena and Alexis -- their first, daughter Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr., was born in September 2017.

Serena's wearing a mostly black Gucci dress ... slimming, but you can still make out the bun in the oven in several photos snapped during her arrival.

No word on how far along she is in her pregnancy, but congrats!!!
