"I know the pain of your loss will be with you the rest of your life," Flair directed to Sebastian's parents, Wendy and Paul. "I still every day of my life think about Reid as you will continue to think about Sebastian."

Ric Flair's stepson, Sebastian Kidder, an up-and-coming musician, has tragically died at the age of 24 after taking his own life, his mother Wendy Barlow confirmed to TMZ Sports, saying the family is heartbroken.

Kidder died after suffering a gunshot wound Saturday afternoon at the family home in Georgia. Police are currently investigating.

Before this Texas native and cutie pie in pink turned into an American actress and singer, she was moving to Edgewood, Florida with her rents and lil' bro, and dressing up as her favorite princess for Halloween.

Contrary to her days as a princess, one of her most recognizable roles was playing a vampire, where she drank the blood of Ian Somerhalder's character. She also played the fantasy roles in "The Originals" and "Legacies."

Musically, this shining star released her debut album, "It's Always The Innocent Ones" back in 2006 and was a backup singer for Miley Cyrus in 2007-2008.

Jadakiss learned the hard way the wheels on the bus going round and round just don't ever stop spinning ... nor do kiddie sing-alongs on bus trips!!!

The lyrical legend documented himself on Thursday, riding a school bus full of tykes singing Mary Poppins' tongue-twisting "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" ... on repeat, again and again and again.

Jada appeared to be all um-dittle-dittled out and appeared to have his son and his classmate on his side in disbelief with the beatdown their ears were taking.

The ride-along dad was also reppin' his The LOX rap group on his fitted hat ... their name stands for "living off experience," which he now has first-hand knowledge of what it's like to be wrung through the nursery rhyme blender!!!

It's all for the greater good of fatherhood ... Jada's twin boys recently turned 10 and he's heavily active in their lives.

Eminem's last album killed off his Slim Shady alter-ego, and now Kash Doll is dropping the "Doll" from her name -- 2024 is the year of newness for the Detroit rap star!!!

No more childish rap games ... big momma needs her own identity!!!

Francis Ngannou returned to the cage last weekend -- 6 months after tragedy struck his family -- and the combat sports superstar admits he was unsure whether he'd ever fight again.

TMZ Sports talked to the 38-year-old former UFC champion turned boxer/PFL fighter just days after he dispatched Renan Ferreira via a first-round knockout in Saudi Arabia ... and then broke down in tears after the bout while talking about the devastating loss of his little boy, Kobe.

"Oh, yes [I didn't know if I'd fight again]. There was a point that you didn't know anything. Everything seemed so fragile," Francis told us, adding his mind was racing a mile a minute during that horrific time.

Halle Berry's going to like this ... the judge in her never-ending custody battle with ex-husband Olivier Martinez sided with her in a dispute over their co-parenting agreement.

Here's the deal ... over the summer, Halle claimed Olivier was trying to take time off from co-parenting therapy, and she complained and asked the judge to force Olivier to go back.

In new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, the judge sided with Halle ... but did note Olivier had already complied with her request after she dragged him to court over the issue.

Before this lil' star with his sword was an international star, he was just throwin' on his tricorn, fighting his way to be a musician and growing up in England ... Arr you prepared to guess this matey?

Aside from his superior singing skills, he's written songs for some of music's hottest stars like The Weeknd, Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber -- whom he's also collab'd with vocally, but perhaps you don't care.

One of his top songs is a popular and perfect wedding song.

Before this sweet boy in his proper baby outfit turned into a socialite and real estate agent, he was just roaming the halls of the Waldorf Astoria, attending elite schools and growing up with two older sisters and one younger bro.

Need another clue? His last name is a famous Hotel chain ...
