Snoop Dogg's still living a young, wild and free life ... getting down on a party bus -- one he wasn't invited to board in the first place.

The rapper posted a video on X Saturday night ... saying he just crashed a random party bus -- and he hopes they all enjoyed spending about a minute with him before they continued on their merry way.

Check out the clip ... no context here, but Snoop seems to just appear on the vehicle -- totally shocking the partygoers aboard the bus.

Lizzo's going down to "South Park" to have herself a time ... dressing up as the Ozempic alternative named after her for Halloween -- months after cracking up over the viral episode.

The singer-songwriter posted photos of her Halloween costume this year ... a box of "Lizzo" from the hit adult animated show -- with a measuring tape cinched around her waist like a belt.

She added advertising slogans to the background ... saying Lizzo is a great way to lose guilt and gain confidence.

Tina Knowles wasn't in Houston for long ... flying back from her home state to New York City early Saturday -- hours after firing off about Donald Trump's "Black jobs" comment.

The 2024 election is just over a week away ... and, celebrities in Atlanta are telling people to get out and vote -- even going door to door to get their message across.

A number of big names took to the streets of ATL yesterday to convince voters in gererally disenfranchised communities to perform their civic duty for this election ... with stars like Killer Mike leading the charge.

Check out the pics of Mike chatting with one local man in the neighborhood ... while rap legend Jadakiss sat down for a pic with a huge group alongside Beanie Sigel.

If the stadium had a roof ... Brad Paisley would have blown it off when he sang a stirring rendition of the national anthem.

Beyonce brought the house down Friday night in Houston, with a HUGE assist from her former bandmate Kelly Rowland, as they introduced Kamala Harris in front of a crowd that went wild.

Beyonce told the crowd, "I'm not here as a celebrity, I'm not here as a politician, I'm here as a mother." Her hometown crowd just lost it!

But before before Bey spoke, Kelly took the mic and her oratory and delivery rivaled an Obama speech ... a tall order but one that was met.

Late Chicago drill rap star King Von's name has been ringing out a lot this year, 4 years after his death -- and Lil Durk has just increased his homeboy's infamy on record!!!

On Friday, Durk's fellow Chicago drill rapper G Herbo revamped his latest album with "Big Swerv 2.0" deluxe edition, featuring "In The Air" with an alley-oop from Durk.

At the close of his verse, Durk references the legacy King Von left behind ... "Farewell, I'm gettin' up out the 'Raq, I'm a survivor Yeah, yeah, I turned a serial killer to a rapper."

Jamie Foxx was rumored to have spilled the tea about Diddy being behind his hospitalization last year -- but we are told there’s zero truth to those claims.

Sources close to the situation tell TMZ that during the taping of his comedy special, "What Had Happened Was," Jamie did name-drop the now-disgraced figure while speaking about his ATL hospital stint -- but they’re telling us it was all in jest.

We’re told Jamie definitely wasn’t being serious, despite some reports claiming he was "exposing" the real story behind his mysterious health scare in April 2023.

Lil Durk is being named by the feds as the top mastermind behind the murder-for-hire plot conspiracy in the attempt on Quando Rondo's life that left his cousin dead ... and may have been trying to flee the country when he was arrested!!!

TMZ Hip Hop obtained the federal complaint against Durk, which hits him with a conspiracy charge related to the alleged murder-for-hire.

The complaint comes on the heels of the previous indictment of 5 of his alleged Only The Family gang members, who prosecutors say were on the scene of the August 2022 shooting of Saviay'a Robinson, AKA Luh Pab.

Selena Gomez made a tiny slip during a speech at her L.A. charity event Thursday night --- and it had to do with Diddy!

The singer/actress was dressed to the nines as she stood at a podium speaking to a few hundred guests at her Rare Impact Fund Benefit at nya Studios West in Los Angeles when things went a little sideways.

At first, everything was cool ... Selena addressed the mission of her charity, which works with the Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services (DHMS) to help prevent suicide among youths.

The Game recently suffered a bit of bad luck in his beloved city of Los Angeles -- returning to his car and discovering thieves made off with his hard-earned belongings!!!

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, "The Documentary" rapper parked his car in the San Fernando Valley on Wednesday, only to return and find someone had broken into the vehicle and taken around $100,000 in bling and designer bags.

Game's true -- not new to this -- and like a baller, had his security deal with the cops on the spot.

Lil Durk was just arrested in a murder conspiracy -- and one of the city keys he received last week has just been yanked before the new smell could whiff away!!!

The Chicago drill rap legend received the keys to Chicago villages Broadview and Bellwood on October 18 ... but Broadview Mayor Katrina Thompson hit a U-turn on Friday.

She basically said her village can't afford to be seen doing business with whatever Durk's being accused of!!!

Charlamagne tha God and Anderson Cooper found themselves in a tense faceoff debating CNN's coverage of former President Donald Trump ... with the radio host suggesting the network doesn't call out 45 for his "fascist" behavior.

The war of words took place during Thursday evening's broadcast, with the CNN broadcaster and the radio personality getting into it on how Trump is discussed versus Vice President Kamala Harris.

As Charlamagne put it ... CNN hadn't held Trump's feet to the fire for the allegedly "fascist" things he's said during his bid for reelection ... including his previous call to "terminate the U.S. Constitution" and "overthrow the election."

Lil Durk has been arrested in Florida for murder-for-hire.

TMZ broke the story ... several members of the Chicago-based OTF crew -- to which Durk has ties -- were charged Thursday with the slaying of rapper Quando Rondo's cousin.

Durk was taken into custody by U.S. Marshals and booked into the Broward County Jail on Thursday night. Authorities have yet to release details on his arrest.
