Gwen Stefani ¡¿Buenos genes o buenos doctores?!

¡Los looks de Gwen Stefani a lo largo de los años son simplemente geniales!

Aquí vemos a la rubia de 35 años luciendo sus icónicos labios rojos tras recibir el premio a la canción más descargada de todos los tiempos por su tema "Hollaback Girl" en 2005 (izquierda). Esto fue justo un año después de que la canción se hiciera viral en todo el mundo.

Y 19 años después, la princesa del punk-rock sigue estando al rojo vivo: recientemente ha sido incluida en el Salón de la Fama del Condado de Orange County (derecha). A eso se suma el anuncio de que ella y los miembros de No Doubt estarán tocando prontamente en el Coachella 2024. ¡Así que solo podemos esperar a que nos siga haciendo cantar y bailar!

La pregunta es...

Marlena Shaw 'California Soul' Singer Dead At 81

Marlena Shaw -- best known for her song "California Soul" -- has died ... according to her daughter.

The legendary jazz and R&B singer passed away Friday afternoon Marlena's daughter Marla said in a video she posted to Facebook. She did not give a cause of death.

Waiting for your permission to load the Facebook Video.

MS' most famous track is "California Soul" -- a song originally performed by The Messengers, but one she covered and made famous ... that's had a lasting impact on hip hop and popular culture at large.

A few of the hit properties that featured the songs ... "The Italian Job," "The Lincoln Lawyer," "All Things Must Pass," "Pixie," the TV series "Bad Sisters" and video game "Grand Theft Auto V."

It's also taken on a second life in the world of hip hop sampling ... Gang Starr, The Game and Jay Rock, Elzhi, Quasimoto, Jay Electronica, Laika and Xzhibit are just a few of the stars who've sampled the song in one form or another.

"California Soul" is her most enduring classic, but Shaw had a number of other hits too including "Feel Like Making Love," "Loving You Was Like A Party," "Go Away Little Boy" and "Is You or Is You Ain't My Baby" -- another song she covered that bagged her a Grammy nod back in 1990.

Marlena was 81.

RIP

NYC Man Arrested on Unrelated Warrant ... Tried to Open T-Swift's Door

Taylor Swift's NYC townhouse got an unwanted visitor Saturday ... and police arrested him on an unrelated warrant, TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us ... cops received a 911 call in the afternoon for a "disorderly person" and responded to Taylor's fancy Manhattan neighborhood, where the pop superstar owns some pricey real estate.

When they arrived, the officers encountered the unruly man and soon learned he tried but failed to access Taylor's building, our sources say.

Whether he knew it was Taylor's crib or not is anybody's guess, but we've obtained photos of the guy standing right outside the front door of her building. Creepy!!!

Other images show NYPD cops cuffing the dude and shoving him into the back of a police cruiser.

We're told police ran a background check on the unnamed suspect and arrested him on a 2017 warrant for failing to answer a court summons in Brooklyn. It was unclear what the warrant was for. NYPD officials have not indicated whether they will recommend charges for this latest incident.

We've reached out to Taylor's team ... so far no word back.

TS' got more than enough reason to be nervous about people showing up at her place ... she's got a long, documented history with stalkers -- one was arrested less than two years ago for trying to get into her Manhattan home.

Meek Mill Asks How Africans Stream Music ... X Unites Against Him

Meek Mill must be feeling a lot like one of his songs right now ... because his day is "Going Bad" -- after he asked what seemed an innocent question on X.

The Philly-born rapper took to the social media network formerly known as Twitter Saturday morning where he asked his followers if he's big on other continents ... specifically Africa.

MM asked, "Do a lot of people play my music in South Africa I remember having on big show [there a] few years back … how do yall listen to our music in South Africa???? On what platform or in Nigeria?"

A seemingly innocuous question ... Meek's probably not super well-versed on how other countries and cultures consume music -- but the internet gave him no mercy and instead relentlessly roasted the man.

Check out the Meek Mill trend on Twitter to see what we're talking about ... the guy's getting mercilessly mocked over this tweet -- with many seemingly calling Meek out for insinuating Africa isn't technologically advanced.

Mill ain't letting the haters bother him though ... instead following up that tweet with another saying he's trying to figure out where his fans in Africa are located so he can put on a show for them.

The 36-year-old's not about to let doubters get to him now -- he released a new album with Rick Ross just a few months ago and recently got teary-eyed during a probation reform bill signing last month in Philly ... he's living an authentic life, no cap.

Kanye West Check Out Bianca's Behind ... Posts More Racy Pics

Kanye West's a big fan of breakfast ... or maybe he just wanted to show Bianca Censori's such a snack -- 'cause he posted some racy photos of her in the kitchen.

The controversial rapper shared a few snaps of his better half Saturday morning ... and while he might've been thinking about the cream of wheat like he put in his caption -- his followers were definitely distracted by Bianca's lack of pants.

Check out the snap ... BC should avoid using the stove in this getup -- because there's not a lot to protect her if any grease pops up (though her neck looks quite snug in the leather headgear.)

Ye's wife's been adhering to "Just Skin January" btw ... she's stunned in a whole lotta revealing ensembles via IG pics she's posted this month.

Back on Jan. 2, Yeezy tossed up a couple of pics of his lady love ... including one where she went with a fur bra and no pants -- a look Ye seemed to say would be frequent in 2024.

She also showed out in a barely-there bra and a leather jacket she let hang off her shoulders ... proving she looks great from any angle!

Kanye West Miren estas fotos de Bianca... Más fotos casi desnuda

Kanye West es un gran fan del desayuno, o tal vez solo quería demostrar que Bianca Censori es un bombón, pues acaba de publicar algunas sensuales fotos de ella en la cocina.

El controvertido rapero compartió unas imágenes de su media naranja el sábado por la mañana, y aunque podría haber estado pensando en la nata como puso en su pie de foto, sus seguidores definitivamente se quedaron distraídos al ver a Bianca sin pantalones.

Echa un vistazo a la foto, Bianca Censori debe alejarse de la cocina con este atuendo, porque no hay mucho que la pueda proteger si alguna gota de aceite salta (aunque su cuello se ve muy ajustado en ese casco de cuero.)

La esposa de Ye ha estado adhiriendo a "Just Skin January" y ha estado deslumbrando con reveladores conjuntos a través de sus fotos de Instagram.

De vuelta al 2 de enero, Yeezy lanzó un par de fotos de su amada, incluyendo una foto donde ella llevaba un sujetador de piel e iba sin pantalones, un look que Ye pareció insinuar que sería frecuente en 2024.

Ella también se mostró en un sujetador apenas transparente y una chaqueta de cuero de sus hombros, ¡demostrando que se ve muy bien desde cualquier ángulo!

Selena Gomez Shows Off Benny Blanco To TV Costars ... Martin Short And Steve Martin

The relationship between Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco is so serious that she's now introducing him to her fatherly figure TV costars Steve Martin and Martin Short.

TMZ obtained these photos of Selena and Benny interacting with Steve and Martin on the red carpet at the 75th Annual Emmy Awards at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles last Monday.

As you may know, Selena, Steve, and Martin all star in the hit Hulu show, "Only Murders In The Building," which was up for 11 Emmy Awards, but snagged only one statue for Outstanding Production Design For A Narrative Program (Half-Hour).

Eyewitnesses tell us ... the meeting between the four celebs occurred just prior to the kick-off of the gala event. Selena was first to approach Steve and Martin on the red carpet, giving them big hugs before chatting with them a bit.

Our sources say she then introduced her record producer boyfriend, Benny, to her costars, while the three men shook hands and exchanged pleasantries.

Sources tell us everyone got along great and it seemed as if Selena was presenting her new beau for the first time to a couple of fatherly figures in her life. Of course, we can't be sure if they had ever met before this encounter.

After talking amongst each other for about five minutes, the foursome left the red carpet to go inside the theater for the awards show.

Looks like Selena and Benny are going full steam ahead. Might there be an engagement in the lovebirds' future? We'll just have to see.

George Clinton Gets Star On Hollywood WOF ... Huge Block Party!!!

Of course, George commanded attention with his sparkling, colorful and bedazzled outfit ... seriously, ya gotta see his getup ... he's shining from his shoes, to his pants, to his shirt, to his jacket, and all the way up to his headwear. It's amazing that this icon is 82.

As you know ... George has been leaving his mark on music since the 1960s ... he was huge in the 1970s and had a rebirth recently in the 'Trolls' movie franchise ... and now the homie is finally getting his due from La La Land with a certified star on the ground.

Just a quick list of his and his band's hits ... "Give Up the Funk," "Flash Light," "Aqua Boogie," "Atomic Dog," "Can You Get to That," "Mothership Connection," and so many more.

A living legend, indeed -- so it's good to see him getting recognized. Check out the gallery ... a funky time was had by all!

Lupe Fiasco Can't Wait to Beat Cudi's Ass!!! 👊🏾 Lil Bitch Don't Live Like Me

Kid Cudi's latest interview might have cemented his reunion with Kanye West -- but it also opened up a new can of worms with Lupe Fiasco, who's spiraling with thoughts of beating up Cudi!!!

Cudi recently poked the Lupe bear while talking to Apple's Zane Lowe -- he was revisiting his pre-fame days when he was just a lowly employee working at the Bape store.

One day, Lupe came in to shop and Cudi admits he hid in the stockroom until the "Kick, Push" rapper skedaddled. He was banking on becoming a bigtime rapper, and never wanted Lupe to hold that encounter over his head.

Cudi also acknowledged Lupe had a deep hatred for him, so he doesn't regret ducking him.

Lupe wasn't feeling story time with Cudi, and angrily hopped on X to call Cudi all types of bitches and other names, most of which Oprah would disapprove.

According to Lupe, the two used to be chummy, but when Cudi questioned his motives for offering fans featured verses for a discounted rate, Lupe felt Cudi exposed his true colors. Ever since then, Lupe's been looking to serve him a fade.

Kanye West Rocks Burzum Shirt ... Neo-Nazi Singer's Face Plastered

Kanye West seems to be embracing Nazi sentiments yet again -- this time wearing a shirt with the face of a self-proclaimed neo-Nazi who's very well known in the metal scene.

Rapper JPEGMAFIA posted a pic Friday showing him standing next to Ye ... with the latter flashing his new platinum "teeth" and JPEG just muggin'. Just a few days ago, JPEG was publicly griping that KW wasn't acknowledging his talents in the studio ... now, this.

On its face, it looks like he and Ye made peace and came together for this photo-op -- but the bigger takeaway is Yeezy's wardrobe here ... specifically, what he's wearing up top.

It's a band T-shirt for the Norwegian black metal group BURZUM, and a photo of their lead singer Varg Vikernes plastered right below. The problem ... Varg is a known antisemite, something that's been well-documented in his career, for which he's faced legal trouble too.

The question ... why the hell is Ye wearing a shirt with a known neo-Nazi on it???

Of course, Kanye himself has been embroiled in nonstop controversy over the past year and change as it pertains to antisemitism -- and while he has attempted to walk those statements back of late, here he is within the past day or so rockin' a freaking BURZUM shirt.

It's possible Ye doesn't know about Varg's neo-Nazi ties -- but frankly, it's way too much of a coincidence considering the timing of everything. There's also an album cover connection.

When Kanye revealed the cover art for his new album "Vultures" ... folks quickly noticed that it looked very similar to BURZUM's album cover art over the years -- like, down to a T almost.

Now, if Kanye is aware who Varg is and what his ugly history entails -- which many suspect to be the case -- it would certainly seem to lend more credence to the notion that his apology in Hebrew last month was ... well, kinda meaningless.

We already shed light on the fact that his mea culpa may well have been generated by AI -- and remember, we just reported that he was said to have recorded some lengthy new apology on camera quite recently ... which we're told was rambling and all over the place.

With this latest development ... we're not really sure Kanye where stands on all this. On its face, though ... it would appear not much has changed in terms of how he feels about Jews.

Kanye West Usa una camiseta con la cara de un neonazi confeso

Kanye West parece estar abrazando sus sentimientos nazis de nuevo, esta vez usando una camiseta con la cara de un autoproclamado neonazi muy conocido en la escena del metal.

El rapero JPEGMAFIA publicó el viernes una foto en la que aparece de pie junto a Ye, con este mostrando sus nuevos "dientes" de platino. Hace apenas unos días, JPEG se quejaba públicamente de que Kanye no estaba reconociendo su talento en el estudio y ahora esto.

Por sus caras, parece que él y Ye hicieron las paces y se reunieron para esta foto, pero lo más importante es el vestuario de Yeezy, específicamente lo que lleva en la parte superior.

Esta es una camiseta del grupo noruego de black metal BURZUM y una foto de su vocalista Varg Vikernes justo debajo. El problema es que Varg es un conocido antisemita, algo que ha sido bien documentado en su carrera y que le ha causado problemas legales también.

La pregunta es, ¿por qué demonios Ye lleva una camiseta con un conocido neonazi?

Por supuesto, el propio Kanye ha estado envuelto en la controversia sin parar durante el último año en lo que respecta al antisemitismo y sus cambios de opinión. Aunque ha tratado de retractarse de esas declaraciones en el último tiempo, aquí está de nuevo, usando una camiseta de BURZUM.

Es posible que Ye no sepa nada de los lazos neonazis de Varg, pero francamente, es demasiada coincidencia teniendo en cuenta el momento en que se produce todo esto. También hay una conexión con la portada del álbum.

Cuando Kanye reveló el arte de su nuevo álbum "Vultures", las personas rápidamente se dieron cuenta de que se parecía mucho al de la portada del álbum de BURZUM en los últimos años, quizás demasiado parecida.

Ahora, si Kanye es consciente de quién es Varg y su historia, que muchos sospechan es el caso, sin duda parece dar más credibilidad a la idea de que su disculpa en hebreo el mes pasado no tenía ningún sentido.

Ya hemos arrojado luz sobre el hecho de que su mea culpa bien pudo haber sido generado por IA y recuerden, acabamos de informar de que grabó una larga nueva disculpa en cámara hace muy poco, donde se dice que estaba divagando y todo eso.

Con este último desarrollo, no estamos realmente seguros de lo que piensa Kanye en todo esto. A primera vista, sin embargo, parece que no ha cambiado mucho en términos de cómo se siente acerca de los judíos.
