ADAM SANDLER "TAYLOR SWIFT ES TAN GRANDE COMO LOS BEATLES" ¡Ella me pone nervioso!

Adam Sandler es como el resto de nosotros... resulta que ni siquiera él puede mantener la calma alrededor de Taylor Swift.

Hablando en SiriusXM "Conan O'Brien necesita un amigo", Adam y el anfitrión Conan discutieron cómo las celebridades del siglo 21 no los sorprendían como las de antaño, pero según el actor, una estrella moderna rompió esa regla... ¡Tay Tay!

Adam explicó que todavía se pone "un poco jodidamente nervioso" cerca de la cantante, por lo que ella significa para sus hijas adolescentes -Sadie y Sunny- y él no quiere correr el riesgo de arruinar su oportunidad de tener una experiencia impresionante actuando torpemente cerca de Taylor.

De hecho, es como si sus personajes de películas de comedia cobraran vida cuando está tratando de llamar la atención de Taylor, ¡porque dice que se vuelve muy torpe!

Conan entendió lo que Adam quería decir, añadiendo que Taylor estaba en un nivel completamente diferente ahora que su superestrellato a alcanzando alturas impensadas y su romance con Travis Kelce en los titulares.

Adam llegó a comparar el éxito de Swift con la "Beatlemania" en los años 60, añadiendo que tiene muchos éxitos y que no hay una palabra que sus hijos no se sepan.

Él ha tenido un montón de oportunidades para cantar junto a ellas. El año pasado llevó a sus hijas a la gira de Taylor "Eras" en Los Ángeles, y también asistió al "The Eras Tour: The Movie". Así que sí, Adam es todo un Swifite.

KIM KARDASHIAN LOS PROBLEMAS DE KANYE CON LOS NIÑOS DEBEN TRATARSE EN PRIVADO... No en Instagram

Kim Kardashian está molesta con Kanye West debido a sus desacuerdos en lo que respecta a redes sociales... y sostiene que esto es perjudicial para los niños.

Fuentes familiarizadas con la situación le dicen a TMZ que Kim no está contenta con la aparición de Kanye del miércoles por la noche, cuando le dijo al mundo que quiere que sus hijos dejen de asistir a su escuela en Los Ángeles.

Kanye dijo: "KIM, SACA A MIS HIJOS DE SIERRA CANYON, AHORA ES UNA ESCUELA FALSA PARA CELEBRIDADES QUE SON USADAS POR 'EL SISTEMA'"

Nuestras fuentes dicen que Kim inscribió a sus hijos en la escuela por dos muy buenas razones. En primer lugar, es una "escuela fantástica", y lo más importante, es que sus hijos necesitan consistencia en sus vidas.

Una fuente dijo: "La única solución que Kanye ha ofrecido en protesta a la escuela -en la que los niños han estado desde preescolar- ha sido colocarlos con profesores no acreditados y en su propia escuela -Donda- la cual no está acreditada y ha estado plagada de demandas".

Nuestra fuente señaló que Kim le permitió a sus hijos a ir a Donda para las actividades extraescolares, pero se detuvo cuando la escuela cerró.

Además, Kanye le dijo a sus hijos que la escuela no es necesaria, algo con lo que Kim no está de acuerdo.

Nos dicen que Kanye no ve a sus hijos a menudo. A veces durante meses, y Kim cree firmemente que sus hijos necesitan consistencia, la cual ella está intentando proporcionar. Kanye lleva una vida nómada, yendo a Japón, Italia, Francia, Arabia Saudí, etc., y ella es la base que sostiene a los niños.

Una fuente dijo: "Kim está frustrada con sus constantes ataques públicos a la escuela porque crea preocupaciones y le genera cierto peligro a los niños".

Finalmente, Kim quiere que todas estas disputas se resuelvan en privado, y eso es algo a lo que Kanye accedió al firmar el acuerdo de divorcio, el cual sigue violando.

Meek Mill Repeatedly Insists He's Not Gay ... Reacts to Reckless Diddy Rumors

Meek Mill is now roped into the latest Diddy lawsuit drama -- quite salaciously and carelessly, we might add -- and yet, he's taking the bait and publicly responding with a rant about being straight as an arrow.

The Philly rapper's been on a wild tweet storm since Wednesday in response to a number of users who were posting memes and jokes after Meek was obliquely referenced in Rodney Jones' suit against Diddy. The docs don't name Meek, but very clearly allude to him.

022824_meek_mill_kal
WTF, MEEK?
Youtube / King Akademiks

The lawsuit includes a footnote addressing a redacted name, and it describes the identity of that person as "a Philadelphia Rapper who dated Nicki Minaj."

Long story short ... Rodney alleges Diddy once told him he'd slept with big-time male celebs in the music biz, including Meek.

Folks online had a field day with this once the docs were published, and Meek ended up going on the attack ... firing off several different tweets to deny he's gay, or that he was involved in any romantic way with Diddy -- as it was recklessly suggested in the wild legal claim.

We'll let you read Meek's tweets for yourself -- but let's just say ... he goes a little over the top here to hit the point home that he's not into dudes, and to some, it comes across as a bit homophobic.

Meek uses some fairly graphic and sexual terms to describe how much he's into women -- and while he might think he's setting the record straight, some are taking his fervent tweetstorm the opposite way.

He also goes after DJ Akademiks here, who's the one who highlighted Meek was alluded to in the suit -- and the 2 of them have been going back and forth nonstop since yesterday.

In any case, it's all very icky, which is why it's strange that Meek is so publicly leaning into it.

Other famous people have also been referenced in Rodney's lawsuit -- who were not named -- and they've kept quiet, refusing to give the allegations any oxygen.

Of course, Diddy himself has utterly denied any and all of Rodney's claims -- and some of them, as we've pointed out, are already starting to fall apart at the seams.

Justin y Hailey Bieber Lucen sombríos... Después de que el padre Stephen pidiera por ellos

Justin y Hailey Bieber fueron a la iglesia esta semana y salieron con un aspecto estoico, apenas unas horas después de que el suegro de Justin, Stephen Baldwin, pidiera oraciones por la pareja de la lista A.

El cantante y su esposa trataron de pasar bajo perfil al salir de la Iglesia Churchome en Beverly Hills el miércoles por la noche. Los tortolitos, que se casaron en 2018 después de un compromiso relámpago, lucían apagados mientras salían del servicio religioso.

Vamos a ser honestos, Justin se veía un poco deprimido, llevaba una sudadera de gran tamaño oscuro y una bufanda a juego que cubría su cara. Hailey llevaba un suéter amarillo y gris alegre, pero parecía igual de sombría a su lado.

La pareja hizo una rápida escapada a su Tesla Cybertruck de $90,000, esquivando y negándose a responder las preguntas de los paparazzi sobre su matrimonio.

El telón de fondo de esta sombría salida es el padre de Hailey, Stephen -también conocido como el hermano de Alec Baldwin- quien ha provocado cierta preocupación entre los fans cuando volvió a pedir oraciones por su hija y su yerno en un post de redes sociales.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Sobre un video de Justin cantando, Stephen escribió: "Cristianos, por favor, cuando piensen en Justin & Hailey, tómense un momento para ofrecerles una pequeña oración para que tengan sabiduría, protección y se acerquen al Señor". Esto no fue lo que Stephen publicó originalmente, pero lo volvió a publicar.

Por supuesto, la fe es algo muy importante en la relación de Justin y Hailey, igual que para Stephen, obviamente. No está claro por qué el padre de Hailey podría haber estado pidiendo oraciones por ellos, pero ha preocupado a algunos.

Justin y Hailey suelen salir a menudo por la ciudad, pero no hablan mucho, especialmente Justin, quien está realmente alejado de los focos y de la actuación en medio de sus problemas de salud. También han sido abiertos y honestos acerca de las luchas que han tenido en su matrimonio desde el principio.

Parece que los dos están una vez más en busca de orientación espiritual y papá Stephen quiere enviarles un poco de amor.

FYRE FEST FOUNDER BILLY MCFARLAND'S SEQUEL PRE-SALE WORTH $110M!!!

022924_billy_mcfarland_kal
FYRE FEST REKINDLED

Fyre Festival founder Billy McFarland is proving folks can't resist a good comeback ... 'cause the pre-sale for the sequel to his infamous music event has made him a boatload of cash!

Billy boasted about this achievement on IG Thursday -- and he confirmed to TMZ as well ... saying FYRE Festival II has received applications for over $110,000,000 worth of tickets during its second and final pre-sale -- an impressive feat compared to sluggish Coachella.

BILLY IS BACK!!!

Pre-sale tickets started up at $2,500 and soared up to a whopping $1M per ticket for the festival which is set for its Caribbean return in December ... and we're told that 40 of those ticket holders were invited to celebrate the $110M figure during an intimate dinner Wednesday night at Le Baratin in NYC.

GUESS WHO IS BACK

While he's made another fortune, it looks like Billy's learned a few lessons -- 'cause this time around he's leaving it to the pros and letting his operation partners and entertainment bigwigs call the main shots at the festival.

Billy himself said in his IG clip Thursday that the next time people would hear from him was when his partners would officially announce the event ... so he's covering his bases here.

His do-over got off to a flying start when pre-sale was first announced in August 2023. Back then, they released 100 tickets, and they all sold out in a day!

Billy attributed the success to the massive curiosity and interest generated by the epic failure of the 2017 Fyre Fest, telling TMZ at the time that he's living proof of the saying "no publicity is bad publicity."

You'll recall ... Billy served 4 years in prison for wire fraud related to the OG Fyre Fest disaster. Clearly, he's hoping FYRE Festival II doesn't go up in smoke like the first one -- and so far, it sounds like it's still got the interest of a lot of party-goers who are down to rage.

Justin, Hailey Bieber Somber at Church After Stephen B's 'Prayers' Plea

Justin and Hailey Bieber went to church this week and emerged looking stoic -- just mere hours after JB's father-in-law Stephen Baldwin asked for prayers for the A-list couple.

The singer and his model wife attempted to keep a low profile as they exited the Churchome Church in Bev Hills on Wednesday evening. The lovebirds -- who got hitched in 2018 after a whirlwind engagement -- looked subdued as they made their way from the religious service.

We'll be honest, Justin looks a little down and out here ... wearing a dark oversized sweatshirt and a matching scarf that covered his face. Hailey was rocking a cheery yellow and gray sweater ... but she appeared equally somber.

They made a quick getaway in their $90,000 Tesla Cybertruck -- refusing to comment on nosy paps who were asking pretty wild questions about their marriage.

The backdrop to this moody outing is actually Hailey's dad Stephen -- AKA Alec Baldwin's brother -- sparking some concern among their fans when he reposted a plea for prayers for his daughter and son-in-law.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Overlaying a video of Justin singing, a message read ... "Christians, please when you think of Justin & Hailey, take a moment to offer a little prayer for them to have wisdom, protection and to draw close to the Lord." Stephen didn't post this originally, but he did repost it.

Of course, Faith is a major part of Justin and Hailey's relationship ... and ditto for Stephen obviously. Unclear why Stephen might've been asking for prayers ... but it worried some.

Justin and Hailey definitely hit the town a lot -- but they don't really talk much, especially Justin these days ... who's really stepped away from the spotlight and performing amid health issues. They've also been open and honest about struggles in their marriage early on.

Tish Cyrus Surfaces Amid New Report Allegedly 'Stole' Hubby From Noah?!?

Tish Cyrus was just seen for the first time since being accused of "stealing" her husband Dominic Purcell from her estranged daughter, Noah ... and Mama Bear didn't wanna chat.

Miley Cyrus' mom was spotted Wednesday in Beverly Hills, driving out of a parking garage in her Toyota SUV after grabbing a bite at Soho House ... and dodging questions from a swarm of paparazzi on the way out.

BACKGRID

It also looks like Dominic himself had joined her ... as he was caught on camera in a different car while parked outside the lot.

Tish is being hounded by photogs in the wake of a report this week claiming Noah was romantically involved with Dominic first -- apparently before Tish got with him following her 2022 divorce from Billy Ray Cyrus.

While Tish and Dominic have since tied the knot and are happily married now, this report casts doubt on the timeline of things -- claiming NC was actually seeing Dom first, when her mom eventually started pursuing him as well. Supposedly, Tish knew Noah was with him.

It's unclear exactly when Noah was dating Dominic -- if this is to be believed -- or when things ended between her and Dom and where a romance started with Tish. The report suggests there may have been some overlap ... and considering Noah's estranged from Tish, it's safe to assume there's some bad blood and harsh feelings over this alleged love triangle.

The claims also add another layer to some perceived drama among the Cyrus clan ... fans have been suspecting things weren't great among the family ever since Miley didn't mention Billy in her acceptance speech at the Grammys earlier this month.

Likewise, Noah skipped Tish's wedding with Dominic ... so the Cyrus brood is fractured.

Tish gushed over Dominic in a recent podcast, saying they made out for hours on their first date and started saying "I Love You" the very next day ... and she noted she DM'd him in 2022 after first getting a message from him in 2016, which she didn't see at the time.

While Tish is head over heels, Noah is said to be "distraught" over Tish "stealing" Dominic away.

Whatever the case may be, Tish isn't ready to address the claims quite yet. We've reached to Tish and Noah for comment ... so far, no word back.

Kanye West Le dice a Kim K... Saca a mis hijos del "sistema" escolar!!!

Kanye West sigue quejándose de la escuela de sus hijos y ahora está exigiéndole públicamente a su ex esposa Kim Kardashian que los saque lo antes posible.

El rapero y productor publicó un nuevo post en IG el miércoles por la noche, que ya borró, donde nombra explícitamente a Kim y le dice que saque a sus cuatro hijos de la lujosa escuela privada a la que asisten.

La imagen que publicó decía: "KIM SACA A MIS HIJOS DE SIERRA CANYON AHORA ES UNA ESCUELA FALSA PARA CELEBRIDADES QUE SON USADAS POR 'EL SISTEMA".

Su pie de foto era igual de revelador. Este decía: "A estas alturas todo el mundo sabe lo que "el sistema" es, es la palabra clave por la que el sistema me apartó de mis hijos".

Kanye West continuó diciendo: "Cuando el sistema recluta atletas, evita trabajar con los que tienen a sus padres en sus vidas porque son más difíciles de manipular. Mis dos mayores saben quién es su papá".

Kanye sonaba firme en su postura aquí, pero como hemos dicho, rápidamente lo borró, probablemente después de una llamada de Kim y sus abogados, suponemos. Sin embargo, es bastante obvio que esto representa en un 100% cómo se siente y sí parece que de nuevo se está inclinando hacia el antisemitismo.

Sabemos de hecho que Kanye ha despotricado contra las escuelas de "adoctrinamiento judío" y también que se ha quejado de que sus hijos vayan a una institución que él considera que es exactamente esto.

Así que sí, su referencia no muy sutil a lo que él considera "el sistema" va más allá de solo el lenguaje codificado, es básicamente un megáfono y ha expresado sus emociones muy abiertamente.

Lo que es interesante aquí, sin embargo, es el hecho de que Ye está señalando a dos de sus hijos específicamente y sugiriendo que aman a su padre, a saber, North West y Saint West. Hemos visto a North pasando mucho tiempo con su padre últimamente y Saint también aparece por aquí y por allá de vez en cuando.

Normalmente, no vemos a los niños más pequeños Chicago y Psalm con su padre, y él ha admitido que Kim tiene a sus hijos alrededor del 80% del tiempo de la custodia.

Suena como que Ye está refunfuñando por eso y tal vez siente que no tiene tanto control como le gustaría.

Kanye West Tells Kim K ... Take Our Kids Outta 'System' School!!!

Kanye West continues to gripe about where his kids go to school -- publicly demanding his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, take them out ASAP ... and he's dog-whistling again.

The rapper/producer threw up a new IG post Wednesday night and he name-dropped Kim explicitly with a strong request ... namely, calling her out and telling her to take their 4 children out of the ritzy private school they all go to.

The image he posted read, "KIM TAKE MY KIDS OUT OF SIERRA CANYON NOW IT'S A FAKE SCHOOL FOR CELEBRITIES THAT ARE USED BY 'THE SYSTEM."

His caption was just as telling -- with Ye adding, "At this point everybody knows what "the system" is code word for 👀 I was removed from my dad by the system and the system removed me from my children."

KW continued ... "When the system drafts athletes they avoid working with those who have their father in their life because they are harder to manipulate. My two oldest know they daddy is."

Kanye sounded firm in his stance here, but like we said ... he quickly yanked this down -- probably after a call from Kim and her lawyers, we presume. Still, it's pretty obvious this is 100% how he feels ... and yes, he again seems to be leaning into antisemitism.

We know for a fact that Kanye has railed against "Jewish indoctrinated" schools... and we also know he's griped about his kids going to an institution he considers to be exactly this.

So, yeah -- his not-to-subtle reference to what he considers "the system" is beyond just coded language ... it's basically a bullhorn, and he's wearing his sentiments on his sleeve.

What's interesting here, though, is the fact that Ye is pinpointing two of his kids specifically and suggesting they love their dad ... namely, North West and Saint West. We've been seeing North hang out with her dad a lot lately -- and Saint pops up here and there too.

Tish Cyrus Aparece tras rumores... ¿Supuestamente le robó su marido a Noah?

Tish Cyrus fue vista en medio de las acusaciones que dicen que le robó su tercer marido Dominic Purcell a su hija Noah, con quien se encuentra distanciada.

La mamá de Miley Cyrus fue vista el miércoles en Beverly Hills, saliendo de un estacionamiento en su Toyota SUV después de comer en un restaurante y esquivar las preguntas de los paparazzi que estaban en el camino de salida.

También parece que el propio Dominic se había unido a ella, ya que fue capturado por la cámara en un carro diferente, mientras se estacionaba afuera del lote.

Tish está siendo acosada por los fotógrafos a raíz de un informe de esta semana que dice que Noah estaba involucrada románticamente con Dominic, y al parecer, antes de que Tish estuviera con él luego de su divorcio con Billy Ray Cyrus en 2022.

Aunque Tish y Dominic están felizmente casados ahora, este informe pone en duda la línea de tiempo de su relación, alegando que Noah Cyrus estaba saliendo con Dom, cuando su madre comenzó a perseguirlo. Supuestamente, Tish sabía que Noah estaba con él.

No está claro en qué momento estaban saliendo Dominic y Noah exactamente, si creemos esta versión, o cuando terminaron las cosas entre ellos y comenzó el romance con Tish. El informe sugiere que puede haber habido alguna coincidencia y teniendo en cuenta que Noah está distanciada de Tish, es seguro asumir que hay un poco de mala sangre y sentimientos fuertes sobre este supuesto triángulo amoroso.

Las afirmaciones también añaden otra capa al drama en el clan Cyrus: los fans han estado sospechando que las cosas no están bien en la familia desde que Miley no mencionó a su padre Billy en el discurso de aceptación de su Grammy a principios de este mes.

Del mismo modo, Noah se saltó la boda de Tish con Dominic, por lo que la familia Cyrus está fracturada.

Tish se deshizo en elogios sobre Dominic en un podcast reciente, diciendo que se besaron durante horas en su primera cita y se dijeron "te amo" al día siguiente. También señaló que le envió un mensaje directo en 2022, luego de recibir uno suyo en 2016, que no vio en su momento.

Mientras Tish está súper enamorada, se dice que Noah está "angustiada" con que Tish le haya "robado" a Dominic.

Taylor Swift, Beyonce Concert Movies Boost AMC Revenue ... Literally All Of It

AMC Entertainment is giving Taylor Swift and Beyoncé a standing ovation ... the theater chain says their concert movies are behind "literally all" of its revenue to close 2023.

AMC just reported quarterly earnings to Wall Street, and the nationwide chain says Bey and Tay Tay helped boost their financials big time.

On the strength of "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour" and "Renaissance: A Film By Beyoncé," AMC raked in $1.1 billion in fourth-quarter revenue.

The massive figure is up from the $990.9 million in revenue AMC reported in the fourth quarter of 2022, a huge increase as far as AMC is concerned.

Taylor and Beyonce are getting their flowers, too -- AMC's CEO Adam Aron says "literally all" of the increased revenue is a result of the singers' concert movies.

Remember, AMC signed deals last year with Taylor and Beyonce to exclusively distribute their concert films, and it turned out to be a brilliant business move for all involved.

ENJOYING THE SHOW

Adam adds ... "To that end, our praise for Taylor Swift and Beyoncé Knowles Carter has no limit."

Without the box office boost from Swifties and the Beyhive, things would probably look pretty bleak for AMC right now ... the company says it's still rebounding from last year's Hollywood strikes.

CELEBRATING QUEEN BEY

Overall, AMC still lost $182 million in the quarter, but that is way down from last year's $287.7 million loss ... hence the glee from AMC execs over Taylor and Beyonce.

Essentially, the theater chain's still hurting -- but the superstar singers helped bring the hemorrhaging down to a trickle.

Now, AMC is turning to a different celeb to get butts in theater seats ... AMC announced a trio of new, 30-second Nicole Kidman commercials -- y'know the ones about "making movies better" -- which will play in theater previews, starting Friday.

With Taylor and Beyonce changing the game here with their concert films, AMC says they'll have more concert movies in 2024 and 2025.

Hitmaka Claims Diddy Snaked Him Outta Multiple Producer Creds🐍

Turns out Lil Rod's not the only one with deeply rooted gripes about working with Diddy -- superproducer Hitmaka is making his own claims about bad biz deals with the music mogul.

On the recent PPV episode of "The Joe Budden Podcast," Hitmaka shared his experiences while working on Diddy's "Love Album: Off The Grid" -- the same project for which Rodney Jones, aka Lil Rod, is suing Diddy for unpaid royalties ... among a litany of other allegations.

DIDDY DID ME DIRTY

Hitmaka told Joe, Diddy dialed him up ahead of the album's creation and gassed up his talent to get him in the studio with fellow artists London on Da Track and Jozzy.

After sending Diddy several tracks, Hitmaka claims Diddy went behind his back recruiting Cardiak, Eric Bellinger and several others to dissolve his contributions from the tracks ... so much so, the album was released without any of his credits!

IT'S BEEN A NIGHTMARE
Instagram / @lilrodmadeit

Hitmaka says he ran into Diddy afterward, and as he describes it ... the gaslighting about the project continued -- and he says he feels sorry that Jozzy is stuck on the Love Records imprint amid all the lawsuits against Diddy.

To make matters worse, Hitmaka alleges Diddy infringed on another Bad Boy project in which he was involved ... that being French Montana's 2021 album "They Got Amnesia."

Hitmaka says he was originally the executive producer, and had his tags on the album opener "ICU," but got hit with the Diddy Effect ... as his voice got replaced with the man writing the checks!!!

He calls it diabolical déjà vu ... Hitmaka said the same thing happened to him during his 2008 freshman season when Diddy came between him and his OG co-producer Rob Holladay.

Hitmaka says he put a stop to Diddy's shenanigans when he attempted to poach his go-to artist and part-time lover, Tink, for one of his projects.

Diddy Atty. on Lawsuit 2 Women Come Forward ... Say They're Falsely ID'd as 'Underage'

Diddy's attorney says a couple individuals who were identified as minors in the salacious lawsuit filed against the mogul are not minors at all ... they're fully grown women.

Shawn Holley tells TMZ ... two women have come forward to clear the air after they saw their images included in Rodney Jones' explosive legal claim from Monday -- where he alleged everything under the sun against Diddy, including claims of partying with underage girls.

There are photos included in Rodney's lawsuit that purport to show a party that Diddy threw last summer in L.A. ... and some of the images show Diddy and his son Justin around some women -- with captions characterizing them as minors.

The suit even blacks out their faces ... perhaps in an attempt to lend credence to the notion they're underage -- but Holley tells us two of the women depicted are anything but that.

For starters, she tells us the woman depicted in the screenshot of Diddy has actually come forward to her to set the record straight ... as she feels she's been grossly mislabeled, as have the circumstances under which she was in Diddy's company that night.

Holley tells us the woman's name is Chelsea, a 33-year-old ... who has a child. We're told Chelsea does not want to publicly reveal her full identity -- hoping to maintain her and her family's privacy amid this whole mess -- but we're told she insists that's 100% her in the pic.

More importantly ... we've been provided with a photo of Chelsea, which we're told shows her in the same bodysuit outfit she was apparently wearing in the photo included in Rodney's suit.

We've blurred her face in the photo -- out of respect for her privacy -- but the bottom line here is ... Chelsea is saying she's in that picture with Diddy, and she is most definitely NOT a minor.

There's another photo of Justin in this lawsuit that purports to show him partying/hanging around underage girls at the same party -- but Holley tells us ... that, too, is false ... as the woman whose face is blacked out in the pic is actually Justin's 32-year-old girlfriend.

We've obtained what we're told is an unredacted version of the photo in Rodney's lawsuit -- and sure enough, it appears to be Justin's significant other, Stephanie Rao.

There's another photo of Justin and Stephanie from the same night -- but a different angle -- that appears to back up that it's her.

Holley points to this as evidence that Rodney and his attorneys were, at a minimum, careless in putting together the complaint here.

Last but not least ... we've gotten some clarification on Rodney's claim that Diddy and Justin were somehow involved in a shooting that left a man injured at a recording studio here in Hollywood -- something Rodney alleged in his complaint was covered up by Diddy himself.

But, our law enforcement sources tell us ... the story that was told to cops that night -- namely, that the victim was robbed at gunpoint and shot by unknown assailants outside -- ended up leading to arrests in the case, and those suspects are currently awaiting trial.

We're told cops think the gunshot victim stepped outside of the studio around 3:30 AM and was accosted by two individuals ... at which point they tried to rob him. Our sources say the man suffered a gunshot wound ... and when officers arrived, there was no sign of Diddy at all.

The alleged culprits are Rudolph Flowers and Laron Bundley -- and we're told they're suspected in other crimes in and around Los Angeles ... including follow-home robberies.

Long story short ... Holley thinks this is just another one of the dominoes that'll start to fall as the details of Rodney's suit get picked apart.

We reached out to Rodeny's attorney, Tyrone Blackburn, who didn't get specific on the new info but tells TMZ ... "Thanks to Shawn Holley, Sean Combs and Justin Combs are on a fast track to the same fate as Tory Lanze (sic) and Danny Masterson."

Jennifer Coolidge Taylor y Travis tienen un pase por su cita... Aunque entiendo la molestia de PETA

Jennifer dice que los tortolitos deberían tener un pase por varias razones: no cree que pensaran mucho en ir al zoológico y solo querían hacer algo romántico juntos.

Como una gran partidaria de PETA, dice que Taylor y Travis parecen ser amantes de los animales y no va a condenarlos por esto. Pareciera estar caminando una línea muy fina aquí, como una gran fan y también como una gran amante de los animales.

Como hemos informado, PETA dijo que la famosa pareja debería buscar en otra parte la próxima vez que deseen estar cerca de los animales y sugirió que visiten un santuario de animales en lugar de un zoológico.

PETA también se opuso a que la pareja alimentara a un canguro en el zoológico de Sydney, diciendo que era perjudicial para ellos hacer eso.

En pocas palabras, Jennifer parece estar tomando un enfoque más diplomático que algunos.

Jennifer says the lovebirds should get a pass for a few reasons ... she doesn't think they put a lot of thought into going to the zoo and were just looking for something romantic to do together.

A big PETA supporter herself, Jennifer says Taylor and Travis seem like fellow animal lovers ... and isn't going to condemn them here. She's kinda walking a fine line here -- huge fan, but also ... big animal lover.

As we reported ... PETA says the famous couple should look elsewhere the next time they're in the mood to be around animals, suggesting they hit up an animal sanctuary instead of a zoo.

PETA also took issue with the couple feeding a kangaroo at the Sydney Zoo ... saying it was harmful to the animal to do that.

Jennifer's stopping short of calling out Taylor and Travis too hard ... but says she ultimately agrees with whatever PETA says on the matter. It's pretty funny to see her wrestle with this dilemma on camera ... you can tell she loves them, and doesn't wanna slam 'em.

Bottom line ... Jennifer seems to be taking a more diplomatic approach than some.

Kanye West y Bianca Censori están recibiendo apoyo de la gente en medio de su lucha contra Adidas: una multitud se cuadró detrás de su causa en Semana de la Moda de París.

Cuando Ye y Bianca salieron del Ritz el miércoles para almorzar, fueron rápidamente rodeados por los fans y los fotógrafos afuera del hotel, algunos de los cuales comenzaron a gritar "F*** Adidas" al unísono.

El cántico claramente llamó la atención de la pareja, ambos esbozaron sonrisas de aprobación, o al menos pareciera que Ye está sonriendo. ¡Es difícil saber, en realidad, con la máscara cubriéndole toda la cara y la cabeza!

¡¡¡Kanye estaba especialmente contento y animó a la multitud para que coreara más fuerte!!! También le dio un autógrafo a un fan sobre su clásico álbum de 2010 "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy", donde firmó las palabras "F*** ADIDAS" con un lápiz negro.

A principios de esta semana, Kanye fue duro con Adidas, acusándolos de violar sus diseños mediante la venta de zapatillas Yeezy que nunca aprobó.

Palabras polémicas, pero al menos sus fans en París, ¡¡¡están con él!!!

La pareja sigue dando que hablar en los eventos de la Semana de la Moda. Bianca apareció el martes por la noche básicamente sin nada debajo de sus pantimedias transparentes.

No hay duda de que la gente de París está muy excitada esta semana.
