Kanye West Rips Adidas For 'Yeezy Day' ... I Didn't Approve!!!

Yeezy Day is here again -- and Kanye West is pissed about it ... claiming Adidas never got his approval for this year's event, and going off about several other issues he has with the brand.

The artist spelled out his issues in an IG message to Complex on Tuesday ... which marks the third annual Yeezy Day, where Adidas re-releases a lot of the popular models from Ye's sneaker line for two days.

Ye didn't hold back about Three Stripes -- saying, "Adidas made up the Yeezy day idea without my approval. Then went and brought back older styles without my approval."

The 45-year-old says he didn't give the "okay" to the brand on damn near everything -- including colorways, names, or hiring people that worked for him.

"Went and hired a GM of Yeezy without my approval," West said. "Took talent on the production side and sprinkled them throughout Adidas originals without my approval."

Of course, Ye's anger toward Adidas may be stemming from their recent beef over the release of their own slides ... which he claims was a rip-off of the Yeezy slides.

Ye also speaks about this in the message ... saying, "When I originally ordered Adidas to make more Yeezy slides, the GM lied to my face and said they didn't have the capacity."

"Meanwhile, Adidas was copying my slides and making their own versions of the Yeezy slide."

"Yeezy is 68% of Adidas online sales," Ye said. "God step in."

The collab between Ye and Adidas started in 2015 -- when the first model 'Boost 750' was released. In 2020, Ye's sneakers reportedly made nearly $1.7 billion in annual revenue.

Kanye signed a new deal with Adidas that runs through 2026 ... so it may be time for a meeting.

Elon Musk's Dad I'm Not Proud of My Son ... And He Needs to Lose Weight

Elon Musk's disdain for his dad probably just intensified, after the 76-year-old Musk patriarch essentially called his son fat and said he's not proud of him.

Errol Musk jumped on the Kyle and Jackie O radio show in Australia Monday, telling the hosts he's not proud of Elon for creating game-changing technology and becoming a billionaire, saying, "You know, we are a family that have (sic) been doing a lot of things for a long time. It's not as if we suddenly started doing something."

Errol as much as said his favorite child is Elon's brother, Kimbal, whom Errol called his "pride and joy."

But, there's more. He shaded Elon after being asked about the photos of his son on vacation in Greece, saying "Elon is very strongly built but he's been eating badly," and urging him to take a weight loss product called garcinia cambogia.

He also went on to say he has a fleet of cars, but not a single Tesla.

Elon has made it clear, he detests his dad and blames him for his family's early struggles. This will not make it better.

"Vanderpump Rules" stars Katie Maloney and Tom Schwartz are putting their divorce drama on camera.

The reality show is back in production for the upcoming 10th season and Katie and Tom's split appears to be taking center stage ... because 'VPR' cameras are capturing some tense interactions between the exes.

We're told the former couple has filmed multiple one-on-one scenes in the last month since calling off their 12-year relationship, including a confrontation about Tom talking to another woman.

As you see in the clip obtained by TMZ, Katie and Tom were at the Daily Mail opening party of Schwartz and Sandy’s -- the bar owned by Tom and his best friend/costar Tom Sandoval. K&T were seated at a table in the crowded bar 2 weeks ago, and emotions were running super hot.

Now check out the pic from last Tuesday ... folks at the same bar saw Katie confronting Tom on camera ... confronting him about flirting with another woman. We're told the confrontation ended with Katie leaving the joint.

TMZ broke the story, Katie filed for divorce back in March ... and they recently sold their mansion.

Chris Rock I Got Slapped by Suge Smith ... Take That, Will!

Chris Rock made a joke of that slap during his stand-up show, but was mum on Will Smith's apology.

Chris took the stage in Atlanta at the Fox Theatre this weekend ... his first appearance since Will's apology, and his jokes were on point.

He kinda brilliantly took a big issue in our country and weaved it into Oscar's greatest hit ... "Everybody is trying to be a f---ing victim. If everybody claims to be a victim, then nobody will hear the real victims. Even me getting smacked by Suge Smith -- I went to work the next day, I got kids."

'I TARNISHED YOUR MOMENT'

Chris wasn't done ... "Anyone who says words hurt has never been punched in the face!"

As you know, Will apologized to Chris during his video apology, saying Chris wasn't ready to have a chit-chat with him. As we reported, our Chris Rock sources told us -- pre-Will Smith vid -- Chris was not going to talk to Will or accept his apology. We don't know if the video softened his position, but based on what we've been hearing ... Chris has moved on.

As for Will finally going public 4 months after the slap, he didn't say why it took so long, but the whole apology seemed steeped in therapy -- a good thing -- so it looks like this is Will's reemergence. It's a very good bet the whole thing will not affect Will's career, long term.

UFC Champ Julianna Pena If Nunes is The G.O.A.T. ... Call Me The G.O.A.T. Slayer!

TAKING THE THRONE
TMZSports.com

Amanda Nunes is considered by almost everyone to be the greatest female fighter of all time... so, that begs the question, what's Julianna Pena if she defeats the G.O.A.T. for a second time?! We asked her.

"I don't know anybody else in this division or the sport that has been able to have the resume that Amanda has made so it's definitely worthy of being called the greatest of all time. But, now that I'm here, I am also being worthy of being called the G.O.A.T slayer."

32-year-old Pena and 34-year-old Nunes are the main event at UFC 277 Saturday night in Dallas ... a rematch of their UFC 269 scrap, won via rear naked choke by Julianna in the 2nd round.

Nunes vowed this fight will be different ... and Pena's taking her at her word, telling us she's prepared for the best version of Amanda inside the Octagon.

"She said in the countdown that she didn't hit me with the best shots and she didn't hit me with everything that she had, so I would assume she's gonna try to hit me with everything she has," Pena says, adding "I just think that I am ready for the biggest, strongest, scariest Amanda Nunes that we've ever seen."

As far as Julianna's legacy, she says she simply wants to be remembered as one of the greatest to ever fight in a cage.

"You know the moral of the story for me is that I wanna be recognized as one of the greatest in sports and in sports history for women's MMA. I want to cement my legacy by getting this win and I wanna be able to to go down in the Hall of Fame and the UFC Hall of Fame."

"That's always been my goal is to be in the UFC Hall of Fame. If beating Amanda Nunes gets me in the Hall of Fame, then you can definitely consider me one of the greatest female fighters of all time. Absolutely."

If Pena isn't already a UFC HOF'er, she can take a helluva big leap toward achieving that goal with a win later tonight. She just has to beat Amanda Nunes ... again.

Migos Quavo & Takeoff Link with Gucci Mane ... Offset Eyes Solo Album

Migos are still looking like they're at a musical fork in the road … because their latest moves are not as a “group” of 3.

On Friday, Quavo and Takeoff continued their rollout as “Unc & Phew” … opting to team with Gucci Mane as their third -- instead of Offset -- for the track “Us vs. Them.”

As Quavo and Takeoff prepped their release, Offset took time to field questions from fans -- mainly about his solo album, where it seemed like he was already moving on ... setting songs with Metro Boomin and Soundside.

And, while Offset is finishing his album, it looks like Quavo and Takeoff will be using the Migos brand name to perform at the Battle of the Bands in Houston next month.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Takeoff and Offset were recently spotted celebrating Rich The Kid’s birthday out in NYC together, so ... trouble in paradise might sound like a reach, but trouble in the studio does not.

Democratic Rep. Linda Sanchez Flips Off Republicans ... At Congressional Baseball Game

The Congressional Baseball Game -- the annual event in D.C. set up to benefit charities -- was anything but chummy on Thursday night, at least for a few moments, 'cause a Democratic lawmaker flipped off a bench full of Republicans, and didn't seem to mean it in a joking way.

Rep. Linda Sanchez, a Democrat from California, unloaded the single-barrel salute in the sixth inning of the game at Nationals Park as she was pulled from the bases for a pinch runner.

No word on what apparently upset her ... but you can see in video of the incident, as she was leaving the diamond to head back to her dugout, she looked at Republican lawmakers and then fired off the offensive gesture.

She has yet to publicly comment on it all.

Outside of the stadium, there was drama too -- multiple protestors were arrested after they blocked an entrance to the park.

Several protestors, meanwhile, ended up making their way inside the venue, and ultimately unfurled a banner that read, "They play ball while the world burns.”

As for the action on the field, there were far less fireworks there ... as the Republicans dominated the game, winning a laugher, 10-0.

The victory is the second consecutive one for the GOP -- you'll recall, the Republicans won last year, too, in a game where Rep. Greg Steube hit a moonshot home run.

Shanna Moakler Cops Respond to 'Domestic Disturbance' Call

Shanna Moakler and her boyfriend Matthew Rondeau got a visit from cops Thursday afternoon, after someone called 911 to report a "domestic disturbance."

LAPD sources tell TMZ, Moakler's daughter called 911 to say a disturbance was going on and her mom's boyfriend was yelling at her.

Cops rushed to Shanna's San Fernando Valley house, knocked at the door and they both answered wearing "skimpy clothes." Cops separated them and they both told the same story -- that there was no fight, no disturbance. Cops looked around the house, no broken furniture, windows, etc. There were also no marks on either Shanna's or Matthew's body.

We're told the daughter who called 911 was not at the house, and cops believe this may be a bad game of telephone.

TMZ broke the story ... Rondeau was arrested in February for allegedly getting physical with Shanna.

As we reported, Shanna and Matthew got in a fight at their home ... a fight triggered by him accusing her of cheating. We're told Shanna left, returned the following morning, and the fight continued and allegedly became physical.

Cops were called and when they showed up, they say they saw visible marks on Shanna's body. Rondeau was arrested for felony domestic violence.

I'M DONE!!!

You may recall the video he posted on Shanna's social media, suggesting she cheated on him.

The L.A. City Attorney has charged Rondeau with misdemeanor domestic violence, battery and vandalism.

Just a few days later Shanna announced she was pregnant with Rondeau's child. They've been spotted together and were getting couple's counseling.

Candace Cameron Bure Vs. JoJo Siwa Daughter Rips JoJo ... Photo Snub's No Biggie, Grow Up!!!

Candace Cameron Bure's daughter is not letting go of her famous mother's beef with JoJo Siwa ... she's defending mom and clapping back at JoJo, essentially telling her to stop acting like a child.

In a since-deleted Instagram Story posted on her account Thursday, Natasha Bure ripped JoJo, saying ... "Respectfully, someone saying 'no' to taking a photo with you is not a 'rough experience.' This generation is so sensitive and has no backbone."

Natasha didn't stop there, telling JoJo ... "There are bigger issues in this world than this. Grow up."

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

The Candace and JoJo beef started earlier this month when Siwa put the "Fuller House" actress on blast, calling her the "rudest celebrity" she's ever met ...  a grudge brewing for several years over a photo snub.

JoJo later explained she was 11 years old when she asked Candace for a photo at a "Fuller House" premiere and got denied, only to watch CCB take pics with others.  JoJo called the snub a "bad experience."

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Candace tried to ease tensions with JoJo this week, claiming the two hashed out the incident and put it behind them, framing it as a learning experience for all.

But now, Candace's daughter is reviving the feud.

BTW ... Natasha is 23 and JoJo is 19, so they're from the same generation.

Angie Everhart Accused of Egging Neighbor's Apartment Cops Called to Scene

ANGRY EGGING
TMZ.com

Angie Everhart's getting accusations hurled at her, claims she trashed a neighbor's apartment with eggs following an argument over a dog's late night barking ... a claim the actress' rep calls ridiculous.

Angie's neighbor, Christina Savar, tells TMZ ... Angie was yelling at Christina's kids earlier this month about their dog being too loud, and waking her up.

Christina says she confronted Angie about it in the hallway, and it turned into an argument. She claims Angie was recording her, and claiming Christina was threatening her.

The neighbor claims later that night someone rang their doorbell around 1 AM, but she didn't go to answer. The next morning, Christina claims she found her front door and balcony covered in egg yolk and shells.

Believing it to be Angie, Christina called cops to the scene.

Law enforcement tells TMZ they spoke to both parties about the incident, but no arrests were made and no report was taken. Cops say there have been no more calls made about either person since then.

Christina tells us she's planning on moving out because her family no longer feels safe.

Angie's rep tells TMZ ... "Obviously she had nothing to do with this, which is why police didn't even file a report. Angie would never do anything to set a bad example for her son. This woman was served an eviction notice today by the building, because she has had problems consistently with many of the neighbors."

The rep claims those problems include multiple complaints about her dog barking.

Britney Spears Will Not Be Deposed, Judge Rules

UPDATE

4:58 PM PT -- Jamie's attorney, Alex Weingarten just stated outside the court he believes the law allows for Britney’s deposition, and he'll bring it to the court of appeal.

Britney Spears will not be grilled by Jamie Spears' lawyer in a deposition ... this was the ruling Wednesday in the conservatorship case.

The judge said whatever information Jamie Spears needs to defend himself against allegations of conservatorship abuse can be obtained from other sources, such as documents and, presumably, other witnesses.

Jamie's lawyer argued that his client's hands would be tied without allowing him to depose his daughter ... in order to defend himself against the various claims Britney and her lawyer made. Jamie's lawyer says his client will be vindicated, and did nothing wrong.

LET HER MOVE ON
TMZ.com

Britney's lawyer, Mathew Rosengart, told the judge ... Britney has been traumatized by Jamie by his actions for more than a decade. Rosengart said putting Britney under oath in a deposition would re-traumatize her.

As we reported, Jamie filed legal docs in June, asking a judge to force her to sit for a depo ... claiming she's been going on a campaign to trash him online, and in her upcoming memoir ... and he deserves a chance to question her under oath about the allegations.

A judge has already ruled Jamie will be sitting for the deposition.

Among the issues Jamie wanted to question his daughter about under oath ... allegations that she was forced to give 8 tubes of blood for medical treatment, was forced to participate in therapy and was not allowed to own pain-reliever meds.

While Jamie was gunning for the depo, Britney's attorney Mathew Rosengart filed docs, saying the battle will be won with documents, physical evidence, and the testimony of Jamie.

Rosengart says Britney's testimony would not be relevant to any legal proceeding and would only potentially traumatize Britney.

Chris Brown I Didn't Bail Last Minute ... On Hurricane Relief Show!!!

Chris Brown says the organizer of a benefit concert for victims of Hurricanes Ida and Nicholas has it all wrong -- he didn't bail only hours before the event, and he's even offering a donation to support the community.

Ms. LaJuan Bailey recently blasted CB, claiming he bailed on a March 19 show at the Toyota Center in Houston -- called "One Night Only" -- to raise money for people whose homes were damaged in the 2021 storms.

Bailey says she advanced more than $1 million for Brown's performance fees, accommodations and private plane ... only to get word he was canceling during sound check.

We've spoken to sources close to Chris and have seen a letter his legal team allegedly emailed to event organizers on March 17, informing them CB would no longer perform.

The letter states Bryson Tiller, who was also to perform at the event, had been removed from the lineup without a viable replacement, a violation of the contract Chris had in place ... so Chris wasn't going to perform.

The letter appears to have been sent 2 days before the show, not during the sound check ... when Bailey claims she found out. It's unclear if her team knew earlier and just hadn't told her.

Now, our Chris sources say both sides have been in negotiations to settle the situation -- with Chris offering to make a 6-figure donation to a Houston-based charity, but no agreement's been made yet.

Bailey recently vowed she'd take Chris to court if he didn't make things right.

Soulja Boy Yeah, I Got Pepper Sprayed ... But I’m Still RICH!!!

Soulja Boy and conservative YouTuber Charleston White tell different versions about their violent run-in in Miami ... but both parties agree it involved pepper spray, and SB got the worst of it.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

SB unleashed a fiery Instagram rant Tuesday ... dismissing Charleston’s claims he'd fired off mace to the face when Soulja went after him this past weekend. Instead, the rapper wants to compare bank accounts, or step into a boxing ring to settle their differences.

In addition to flashing stacks of cash, the “Crank That” rapper announced he's dropping a new album on his birthday, which is coming up on Thursday.

Despite all those distractions, it was hard to ignore the big ol' shiner under Soulja's eye … which might support Charleston’s account that he sprayed SB directly in the face.

Charleston broke down the alleged incident with DJ Akademiks -- his version, anyway, which is that Soulja and 10 others cornered him before he pepper sprayed his way to safety.

One more thing both guys agree on is that there’s video of their confrontation, but neither seems to know anything about its whereabouts.

Must be the pepper spray fog … takes a minute to clear out.

Lynne Spears I Love You, Britney!!!

Britney Spears says she begged her family for help while in a mental health facility, but got no response ... a claim her mom, Lynne, is now shooting down with hope they can reconcile.

Britney got on Instagram Sunday to share text screenshots she sent to her friend, lawyer, and mom during her time in the facility ... with a caption that read "It's a little different with proof."

She claims she got "no response" from everyone, even after telling Lynne she thought they were trying to kill her. However, Lynne posted screenshots of her own Monday showing the same convo and her responses she sent Britney.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Lynne says she has the "full conversations," too ... possibly alluding to her side of the texts that might've been left out as well. She captions the post, "I hurt for you that you feel the people who love you the most betrayed you! Let me come to you! I love you!"

As we reported, Britney also posted and deleted a picture of her sister Jamie Lynn with their dad, Jamie ... claiming the two were having meetings while the rest of the world was dealing with COVID.

Sources close to JL told us the picture in question was from 2019, before the pandemic.

Jamie Lynn Spears Didn't Meet with Pops During COVID ... Despite Britney's Claim

Britney Spears claims her sister Jamie Lynn was having meetings with their dad during COVID while the rest of the world was on lockdown ... but we're told that's not the case at all.

Sources close to Jamie Lynn tell TMZ she wasn't parading around with her dad in 2020 -- instead, she was stuck at home like everyone else, and believes Britney got her story completely wrong ...  saying the proof is clear as day.

Britney posted a photo Sunday of Jamie Lynn and Jamie as supposed evidence of their pandemic meetings, along with a lengthy caption ... but we're told the pic in question was in 2019, before the lockdown.

At the time of the photo, JL was just getting back into work after having her second daughter, Ivey, the year before ... she had intro meetings with a few streaming services and Jamie dropped her off on the way to the airport.

We're told he didn't attend the meeting with her, and the picture was taken when she was staying in Britney's guest room during the trip ... which is why Jamie Lynn's confused as to how her big sis forgot that.

As a result, we're told JL wishes Britney would leave her out of future posts -- believing this is just a blatant lie to make her look bad. BTW, Brit has since taken down the entire post.

Britney also called out her sister's new home she's building in Louisiana. We're told Jamie Lynn and her husband worked hard to make it a reality, using their own money to build it -- so, it shouldn't anger her sister in the slightest.

911 AUDIO

The scene at Papi Steak following the March altercation between Colby Covington and Jorge Masvidal was so frantic ... a cop called for multiple units to get there quickly, new 911 audio reveals.

In the clip, obtained by TMZ Sports, a man identifying as an off-duty police officer told dispatch that he had spoken to Covington (whose name was redacted in the file) and said the UFC star had told him Masvidal "sucker punched" him following dinner at the popular Miami eatery.

THE AFTERMATH
TMZSports.com

The cop, with urgency in his tone, can be heard in the audio telling the dispatcher, "Can we send a bunch of, or a few units ..." He later added in the call, "If you could just send units on a three, please."

As we reported, Covington alleged that on March 21, Masvidal attacked him with a flurry of punches ... chipping his tooth and damaging his $90,000 Rolex.

Masvidal was eventually arrested over the incident, and later charged with two felonies.

The UFC fighter -- who had lost to Covington in a match just days before the altercation in the Florida street -- has pleaded not guilty to the charges. He's due in court for another hearing in the case next month.

Covington, meanwhile, has yet to address the incident publicly ... though according to court documents, he's claimed to have suffered a "brain injury" in the attack.
