Olivia Rodrigo handled a disastrous wardrobe malfunction like a pro ... not missing a beat as her top came undone during her London concert, and keeping the damn thing in place.

The singer took the stage at The O2 Arena Tuesday as part of her world tour -- and during a vigorous performance of her hit, "Love Is Embarrassing" ... Olivia's upper-body garment broke open ... forcing the former Disney Channel star to hold it in place.

Still, Olivia kept it together ... continuing on with the performance while motioning to her nearby dancer to fix the busted bustier. While they weren't able to get it fixed on the spot, Olivia didn't cut the song early ... only venturing offstage for help once the track wrapped.

Kelsey Plum might be a new SKIMS model, but she certainly wasn't wearing any on Tuesday -- at least up top -- 'cause the WNBA star rocked a super revealing 'fit to the Las Vegas Aces season opener.

KANYE WEST Parts Ways w/ Yeezy Chief of Staff ... Mass Exodus of Employees

Kanye West is saying sayonara to Yeezy's longtime Chief of Staff in what appears to be a mass exodus at the company ... and in this case, it's all about porn tainting the spirit.

Milo Yiannopoulos -- who's been the point man on all things Yeezy for nearly two years now --  confirms his split from Ye's enterprise to TMZ ... telling us, "I wish Ye every success in the future. I have some concerns about his new team, and hope he proceeds with caution."

It's unclear who exactly might be a part of Kanye's new team -- things are always kinda in flux there -- but clearly, they're not sitting well with Milo, and BTW ... that's not the only thing troubling him.

Zendaya Stylist Admits Fashion Grudges!!! Law Roach Still Rejects Designers That Dissed Her

Zendaya is a no-fly zone for almost all of the major fashion houses as long as her stylist Law Roach is calling the shots ... because he remembers which designers turned her down, and he won't let them forget it.

LITTLE TOO LATE
The Cutting Room Floor Podcast

Law poured all sorts of tea when he was on "The Cutting Room Floor" podcast -- for instance, why Zendaya doesn't wear Chanel, Saint Laurent, Dior or Gucci when she's making her grand entrances to fashion events and movie premieres.

He explained that early in Z's career -- he's been dressing her since 14 -- he'd try to get big designers to work with her. He says, "I would write [to] the big five… and they would all say no. Try again next year. She’s too green. She’s not on our calendar."

Aoki Simmons Reacts to Kimora's Embarrassment ... Over Kissing Older Man

The Simmons family mother-daughter standoff is getting more public ... as Aoki appears to be firing back at her mom Kimora Lee Simmons for commenting about Aoki's brief fling with much older restaurateur Vittorio Assaf.

Aoki posted a quote Friday from Dr. Nicole LePera that certainly reads like a response to Kimora telling TMZ she was "embarrassed" her 21-year-old daughter was photographed sucking face with 65-year-old Assaf.

The comment seems to have struck a chord with Aoki, who highlighted LePera's words ... "Good girl conditioning sends a clear message: don’t be too much or want too much."

SOUNDS LIKE A SET-UP
TMZ.com

Kimora Lee Simmons says she felt a "little embarrassed" when she saw pics of her 21-year-old daughter kissing a 65-year-old ... especially because she feels like Aoki got played.

We caught up with the fashion mogul Thursday in NYC, and asked her all about Aoki's short-lived tryst with restaurateur, Vittorio Assaf -- she doesn't think it was ever a real relationship, and even referred to him as just a toad Aoki kissed.

KLS adds she feels her daughter was set up ... and, while she doesn't exactly come out and say what she means by that, she certainly implies the vast age difference screwed with her daughter's head.

Katherine Schwarzenegger Takes Shots at Met Gala ... it's not Chic & Classy Anymore!!!

Katherine Schwarzenegger isn't going along with the crowd when it comes to the Met Gala being fashion's biggest night -- instead, she thinks it might be its trashiest event.

Kat re-shared a throwback pic on IG story ... showing her mother, Maria Shriver, and her grandparents, Eunice Kennedy Shriver and Sargent Shriver attending the Anna Wintour-hosted event in 2001.

Katherine then took a shady jab at the current attendees with her caption ... "When the met gala was chic and classy."

I'M CARDI B BABY !!!

Cardi B thinks anyone who's offended over her not being able to ID the designer of her dress is faking outrage ... and she's got an explanation for the brain fart.

ICYMI ... Cardi had a bit of a deer-in-the-headlights stare when Emma Chamberlain -- representing Vogue -- interviewed her on the carpet Monday ... and came up empty-handed on the designer's exact identity, and referring to them only by their ethnicity.

The dress was put together by Chinese designer, Sensen Lii of Windowsen -- but Cardi wasn't able to come up with the name in the moment ... referring to them as "Asian and everything."

Kyrie Irving Drops New Shoes Honoring Late Mom ... Special Mother's Day Edition Kicks

Kyrie Irving is honoring his late mom, Elizabeth, on Mother's Day this year with some special edition ANTA sneakers that pay tribute to her "wisdom and protective spirit."

The Chinese apparel company -- which famously signed Irving to a shoe deal back in July 2023 -- announced on Tuesday the kicks will drop this weekend ... and, as you can see, they feature a ton of homages to the Mavericks star's mom.

The shoe has the word "Mother" embroidered on the strap and the heel pull ... and it's got her name sketched on the outsole as well.

Kendall Jenner & Bad Bunny Reunite at Met Gala ... Staying at Same Hotel Overnight???

Kendall Jenner seems to be back with Bad Bunny -- at least that's what it looked like at the Met Gala ... where they were seen getting cozy, and possibly even staying at the same hotel.

The model and pop star were photographed hanging out at an after-party Monday night in NYC -- this on the heels of both of them walking up the steps of the famous museum and showing off their snazziest outfits. They didn't show up together there, but after ... no doubt.

Kendall Jenner y Bad Bunny se reencuentran en la met gala ¿Pasaron la noche en el mismo hotel?

Kendall Jenner parece estar de vuelta con Bad Bunny, o al menos eso es lo que parecía en la Met Gala, donde fueron vistos muy cariñosos. Además, es muy posible que se hayan alojado en el mismo hotel.

La modelo y la estrella del pop fueron fotografiados en una fiesta el lunes por la noche en Nueva York, esto después de que ambos subieran las escaleras del famoso museo y mostraran sus trajes más elegantes. No aparecieron juntos allí, pero no hay duda de que lo hicieron después.
