The team behind the viral, and failed, Willy Wonka experience has some making up to do, and Billy McFarland -- a guy who's very familiar with that situation -- wants to give them a shot at getting it right.

We talked to the Fyre Festival founder in NYC, and had to ask him about that Wonka disaster in the UK that's captured the world's attention ... and instantly reminded folks of Billy's own failed festival.

ICYMI ... pics from a pop-up Willy Wonka experience in Scotland have been all over X and other social media platforms with people complaining about how truly lackluster and appalling the whole thing was.

And, Billy agrees ... saying right off the bat he thinks organizers need to make amends with the kids for the one-star factory tour ASAP, and IF that happens ... he's offering team Wonka a spot at Fyre Festival II.

Remember, Billy put on a similarly, and legendarily, bad experience in the form of a music festival for high-paying fans back in 2017 in the Bahamas. The set-up was abysmal, and Billy later pled guilty to defrauding investors. He served around four years in prison.

McFarland says he wants to give the Wonka folks a chance to do things right at Fyre 2 ... albeit with some guardrails in place to keep everything on track.

Billy's clearly got the second Fyre Festival on his mind ... saying it's set for some time next year, but his partners will announce the date when they're ready. For now, he's taking on more of a marketing role and trying not to go overboard and do too much.

And, it seems like Fyre tickets are goin' quickly ... with Billy telling the world on Thursday that the Fyre II presale has received applications for around $110 million worth of tickets.

Tish Cyrus está siendo acusada de robarle el novio a su hija y luego convertirlo en su marido, y en medio de todo el ruido, el propio hombre se dirige hacia el mar.

Dominic Purcell -la ex estrella de "Prison Break", que ahora está casado con Tish- fue a surfear el jueves en Malibu, donde era solo él y su tabla cogió algunas olas y disfrutó de un poco de tiempo a solas en el océano durante un día sombrío.

Las fotos son bastante geniales, Dom parece saber lo que está haciendo. Luce como un surfista bastante experimentado y no un principiante, al menos eso es lo que podemos deducir.

Lo más notable es el ambiente nublado y las olas agitadas que parecen reflejar la situación en la que él y su esposa se encuentran ahora, es decir, directamente en contra de su hija -Noah- quien se informa ha estado saliendo con Dominic antes de que Mamá lo acapara para ella.

Teniendo en cuenta lo guapo que se ve Dominic aquí, suponemos que podemos entender el atractivo, pero si lo que se está informando acerca de cómo él y la relación de Tish surgió es cierto... bueno, es un poco desagradable por decir lo menos.

Recordemos que la afirmación es que Noah estuvo en realidad con Dominic primero, y que Tish finalmente comenzó a dirigirse a él a través de redes sociales.

La línea de tiempo que se ha informado es un poco borrosa, pero parece que hubo algunos problemas, lo que podría explicar por qué Tish y Noah están distanciados.

Todavía hay un montón de preguntas sin respuesta... pero en cualquier caso, Tish y Dom fueron vistos el miércoles en los talones de esta gran noticia de última hora y ninguno de ellos parecía dispuesto a hablar con los paparazzi al respecto.

Tisha y Dom iban en vehículos separados para su almuerzo en Los Ángeles, y cuando Tish se alejó, ella mantuvo sus ventanas habiertas haciendo caso omiso de las preguntas de los fotógrafos.

En cuanto a Noah, ella no ha dicho mucho acerca de esto públicamente por el momento, pero el hecho de que ella faltó a la boda de Tish con Dominic el pasado mes de abril es revelador, especialmente a la luz de este presunto desarrollo.

No hace falta decir que la familia Cyrus está seriamente fracturada en este momento, ya que parece que algunos de los niños han tomado partido en todo este asunto, por no mencionar el reciente divorcio entre Tish y Billy Ray. Miley parece ser anti-Bill, y Noah es anti-Tish.

Ya había mala sangre, pero ahora se le agregó leña al fuego y no pareciera que las cosas vayan a calmarse.

Tish Cyrus is being accused of stealing her daughter's boyfriend and then turning him into her own husband -- and amid all the noise ... the man himself is heading out to sea.

Dominic Purcell -- the former 'Prison Break' star, who's now married to Tish -- went surfing Thursday out in Malibu, CA ... where it was just him and his board as he caught some waves and enjoyed a little solo time out in the ocean during a gloomy day.

The pics are pretty cool ... Dom seems to know what he's doing out there, looking like a fairly seasoned surfer and not a kook (beginner) -- at least that's what we can glean.

More importantly though ... the overcast environment and choppy waves also seem to telegraph the situation he and his wife are now in -- namely, squarely against her daughter, Noah, who is reported to have been dating Dominic before Mama Bear swooped in.

Based on how studly DP looks here, we suppose we can understand the appeal -- but if what's being reported about how his and Tish's relationship came about is in any way true ... well, it's a little unsavory to say the least.

Remember ... the claim that's been floated here is that Noah was actually with Dominic first -- and that Tish eventually came along and started hollering at him over social media DMs.

The timeline that's been reported is a little fuzzy, but it seems like some overlap may have possibly occurred -- which might be able to explain why Tish and Noah are now estranged.

There are still a lot of unanswered questions about this ... but in any case, Tish and Dom were both spotted out Wednesday on the heels of this big news breaking -- and neither of them seemed ready to talk to paps about it.

Tisha and Dom were rolling in separate vehicles for their lunch outing in L.A. -- and as Tish pulled away, she kept her windows rolled up ... ignoring questions from the photogs.

As for Noah, she hasn't said much about this publicly just yet -- but the fact she skipped Tish's wedding with Dominic last April is telling ... especially in light of this alleged development.

It goes without saying ... the Cyrus family is seriously fractured at the moment, as it seems some of the kids have taken sides in this whole thing -- not to mention the somewhat fresh divorce between Tish and Billy Ray. Miley appears to be anti-Bill ... Noah's anti-Tish.

There was already bad blood in their brood as it was ... but now, this is yet another divide that's being thrown into the mix -- and it doesn't sound like things are gonna simmer down.

Kanye West's wife Bianca Censori is once again letting it all hang out -- and now, everything's on the table ... from top to bottom, she's showing the world what she's made of.

Bianca and Ye hit up a restaurant over in Paris Wednesday night -- and she wasn't shy about her body, not that she really ever is. She was wearing a VERY see-through top, which showed off her bare breasts. Yes, it's pretty easy to see her nipples here.

Not just that ... but you can also see her vagina, and butt -- depending on the angle.

The couple also shared some tender PDA moments inside the eatery, snuggling up along a wall ... and afterward, Ye followed her out to a waiting van as she put all her assets on display.

No shame in Bianca's game -- that much has been made quite clear.

Once they got in their ride, Kanye and Bianca took a few moments to chill ... sitting in the back seat as photogs snapped away. She didn't shy away from the attention -- neither did he.

The moment of reflection seemingly came right around the time of Kanye's latest public demand of Kim Kardashian ... when he posted a statement on IG calling on his ex-wife to take their kids out of the ritzy private school they all attend in California.

It's interesting ... Bianca was covered up earlier in the day when she went out in long coat ... but by nightfall she was in the mood to go nude. She's been doing this all week, BTW.

Remember, we saw Bianca showing off her bare butt and vagina earlier this week in Paris, where fashion week is in full swing, and now she's adding her nipples to the mix.

Her outfits last week in Italy were just as eye-popping -- although, here in France ... she's upped the ante and gotten even more risque than perhaps any other outfit she's rocked.

She's definitely looking like a typical Kanye muse -- and she appears to be loving every minute of it.

Hailey Bieber's father, Stephen Baldwin, asked the public for prayers for his daughter and her husband, Justin Bieber -- and as it turns out, something's going on ... and Hailey's pissed.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ that Stephen's plea for guidance and well-wishes toward his daughter and son-in-law did not just come out of nowhere ... and was related to something specific that's going on with the young couple.

While we weren't told what the issue is ... the one thing we know for certain is that it's a private thing that Justin and Hailey are dealing with.

Whatever it is ... Stephen is obviously aware of it, and wanted to pass along good vibes in the form of prayers from others -- and while he probably only meant well with this move, sources tell us Hailey is not pleased with her dad drawing attention to them.

You could tell something was on their minds Wednesday as they were leaving church here in L.A. -- where a bunch of paps snapped them on the way out ... and they were pensive.

Some didn't think there was anything to their somber demeanors, but now ... we're hearing there's something behind it. Considering SB had just reposted this "prayers" clip hours before they went inside ... it's a safe bet to assume they were aware the spotlight was on them.

Again, we're not quite sure what this all pertains to ... and we're not gonna speculate.

There haven't been any open signs of trouble in paradise between Hailey and Justin either -- they've just gone about their business, per usual -- which is why this is all so sudden and confusing. Clearly, with Stephen's sentiment ... he's kicked up some unwanted publicity here.

Diane Warren says she's just along for the ride as she heads back to yet another Academy Awards while seeking her first win ... but her movie partners are a lot less bashful, 'cause they're bashing her competition.

We got the legendary songwriter Thursday at Pink's Hot Dogs on La Brea -- where Diane was being honored with her own veggie hot dog -- and our photog asked her about that elusive Oscar's win.

Diane's nominated for an Academy Award for the 15th time in her career -- this time she's up for Best Original Song for "The Fire Inside” from the film "Flamin' Hot" -- and she told us she's just happy to be nominated and already feels like a winner.

While Diane played it cool, her partners on the film go to bat for her ... telling us she deserves to finally win an Oscar.

Becky G sings Diane's song from the Hot Cheetos movie ... and she's gonna perform it at the Oscars, along with the other nominees.

The competition includes a couple songs from "Barbie" ... the Ryan Gosling-performed song "I'm Just Ken" and Billie Eilish and Finneas' "What Was I Made For?"

Diane's movie partners, Richard and Judy Montanez, take a couple playful shots at the "Barbie" duo here ... telling us Diane's tune is way better than the Ken song.

Don't even get them started on Billie's track, which they quietly say is "depressing." No hate here, just good fun ... Billie says she was depressed when writing the song anyway.

Win or lose next weekend at the Oscars, Diane's already got another notch on her belt ... in the form of her very own Pink's hot dog.

Diane's special dog is a veggie dog topped with jalapeño pepper jack cheese, guacamole, and Flamin' Hot Cheetos.

Un gran llamado de atención ocurrió en un show de Taylor Swift en Australia, los Swifties criticaron a una mujer que fue capturada en video usando una aplicación para buscar una de las canciones de Taylor, pero muchos otros la están defendiendo

Algunos fans de Taylor están furiosos porque la asistente al concierto, que parece ser una mujer de mediana edad, recurrió a Shazam para identificar una de las canciones que Tay Tay estaba cantando, específicamente, "Champagne Problems".

Un breve clip de la mujer buscando frenéticamente la canción en su teléfono se está volviendo viral en TikTok y una facción de Swifties están cabreados, quejándose de que un fan no tan fanático compró un boleto para los shows de la gira "Eras" con entradas agotadas.

Hay un montón de gente mala en los comentarios, despotricando exageradamente sobre la mujer... al parecer, para los swifties es algo imperdonable.

Mientras que la indignación es bastante fuerte, la mayoría de la gente está siendo comprensiva... Menos mal.

La teoría más comentada es que la mujer probablemente fue al espectáculo con un miembro de la familia más joven que sí es un gran fan de Taylor, y ella simplemente no se sabía las canciones. Suena bastante plausible, y definitivamente no hay nada de que preocuparse.

Adam22 is declaring himself and Wack100 as hip hop's de facto d*** pic raters ... and according to his expertise, Drake and his schlong are a gift to the rap game!!!

The "No Jumper" boss recently linked with TMZ Hip Hop and he has the utmost confidence the viral video purported to be Drake is 100% real.

Everyone's seen "the video" and Adam claims he was privy to a peek at Drake's scepter months ago after a mutual friend of theirs showed him pics.

Many speculated it was a sleazy leak to build buzz for Drake's tour ... but Adam says Drake told him personally he wasn't responsible for unleashing the clip, because that's not on brand for OVO!!!

Adam speculates Drake was getting blackmailed for money, and the vid was posted as payback for a failed shakedown ... but Adam says there's no reason for Drizzy to be ashamed.

He's slapping a fat 8/10 on Drake's meat, just south of the perfect score many pornstars get ... and keep in mind they swing theirs for a living!!!

We also discussed his blushing bride Lena The Plug, and despite their very open sex lives, he clarified she's not just a hot prize to be passed around to the next horndog ... something he says NLE Choppa, clearly, doesn't understand.

Adam recently gave the thumbs up to NLE's package deal, but says the Memphis rapper pushed his luck by pushing up on Lena.

Lizzo se está oponiendo a la idea de que rechazó un cameo para la nueva película de Jennifer López y suena como que... si hubiera sabido, habría aceptado.

Esta es la cuestión: J Lo reveló todas las celebridades que supuestamente rechazaron papeles en su reciente película "This Is Me ... Now", en un documental de Prime Video sobre la realización de su nuevo álbum, y el nombre de Lizzo apareció como "no disponible".

Sin embargo, Lizzo está diciendo algo diferente, literalmente. En un post de TikTok, la cantante dijo que nadie le comentó sobre la oferta para esta película. Es más, asegura que nadie le pidió participar en el proyecto.

Pese a todo, Lizzo no tiene ningún resentimiento, mira a la cámara y le dice a J Lo que la quiere. Por lo tanto, no está enojada... pero sí levanta sospechas, sin duda.

Recordemos que en el documental "Greatest Love Story Never Told", J Lo contó su historia de amor desde su perspectiva, aunque parece que el casting estuvo lleno de sorpresas.

Entre las celebridades que según el equipo de J Lo decidieron pasar de la película están Lizzo, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Jason Momoa, Jennifer Coolidge, Vanessa Hudgens, Snoop Dogg, SZA, Bad Bunny y Anthony Ramos.

La mayoría de las estrellas tenía conflictos legítimos. Taylor estaba tocando en el marco de su gira "Eras" y Ariana estaba filmando "Wicked" al otro lado del charco. J Lo dijo que Khloé Kardashian se echó para atrás de hacer un cameo a último minuto.

A pesar de que sus representantes están diciendo que un montón de gente pasó del proyecto, dos personas hasta el momento han dicho que eso es falso. Jennifer Coolidge habló con un paparazzi ayer y negó que tuviera algún tipo de conocimiento y ahora Lizzo está diciendo que ella tampoco tenía ni idea de esto.

Por supuesto, J Lo se las arregló para embolsar un par de grandes nombres, incluyendo Sofia Vergara, Jane Fonda, Keke Palmer, Post Malone y Trevor Noah.

Lo que bien acaba, bien está, suponemos, pero es extraño que haya dos versiones en esto.

Major no-no at the Taylor Swift concert down in Australia ... Swifties are coming after a woman who was caught on video using an app to look up one of Taylor's hit songs -- but lots of others are actually defending this lady.

Some Taylor fans are furious the concertgoer, who appears to be a middle-aged woman, turned to Shazam to identify one of the songs Tay Tay was singing ... specifically, "Champagne Problems."

A short clip of the woman frantically looking up the song on her phone is going viral on TikTok ... and a faction of Swifties are pissed, complaining about a non-diehard fan scoring a ticket to the sold-out "Eras" tour shows.

There's a bunch of mean folks in the comments ... seemingly upset the woman had the audacity to use Shazam in the middle of the show. How dare she not know the full setlist!!!

While the outrage is pretty loud, the majority of people are being supportive ... and understanding. Just check the comments from the OG TikTok -- there's a good amount of folks cutting her some slack, while other overzealous Swifties are dogpiling.

One popular theory ... the woman using Shazam probably went to the show with a younger family member who is a huge Taylor fan -- and she just didn't know the songs herself ... and wants to learn. Sounds pretty plausible, and it's definitely nothing to fret.

La esposa de Kanye West, Bianca Censori, está dejando que todos vean sus atributos nuevamente, y esta vez sí que está todo sobre la mesa: de arriba para abajo, ella está mostrándole al mundo de lo que está hecha.

Bianca y Ye fueron a un restaurante en París el miércoles por la noche y ella no fue tímida con su cuerpo, no es que lo haya sido antes tampoco. Llevaba un top MUY transparente, que dejaba entrever sus pechos muy fácilmente, especialmente sus pezones.

No solo eso, también se puede ver parte de su trasero y algo más dependiendo del ángulo.

La pareja también compartió algunos momentos juntos, abrazándose y acurrucándose al interior del restaurante y luego Ye siguió a Bianca hasta una camioneta que los estaba esperando donde puso todos sus activos en exhibición.

No hay vergüenza en el juego de Bianca, eso ha quedado bastante claro.

Una vez que llegaron al vehículo, Kanye y Bianca se tomaron unos momentos para relajarse y se sentaron en el asiento trasero mientras los fotógrafos les disparaban desde lejos. Bianca no se intimidó en ningún momento ni tampoco Ye.

Este momento llega justo después de que Kanye pidiera públicamente a Kim Kardashian, su ex esposa, que sacara a sus hijos de la escuela privada donde los tiene en California. Ye publicó un post que luego borró haciendo el reclamo.

Es interesante, en la mañana Bianca fue completamente cubierta con un abrigo largo, pero al caer la noche estaba de humor para ir desnuda. Por cierto, hay que tener en cuenta que ella ha estado haciendo esto toda la semana.

Recuerden, vimos a Bianca mostrando todo para abajo a principios de esta semana en París, donde se está realizando la Semana de la Moda y ahora está sumando sus pezones.

Sus trajes de la semana pasada en Italia fueron igual de llamativos, aunque aquí en Francia ha subido un poco la apuesta y se ha puesto más atrevida que nunca antes.

Definitivamente, se ve como una clásica musa de Kanye y ella parece estar disfrutando cada minuto de ello.

Drake está rindiendo homenaje a la madre y la hija que murieron trágicamente después de un reciente show en St. Louis, al mismo tiempo que está haciendo otro gesto dulce con una fanática que está luchando contra el cáncer.

Durante su concierto en Buffalo, Nueva York, la noche del miércoles en el KeyBank Center, Drake se tomó el tiempo para compartir un emotivo mensaje con la multitud, a quienes les dijo: "Nunca sabes cómo será la realidad de la otra persona cuando salga de este edificio".

También animó a los fans a mostrarle su amor a un total desconocido, lo que hicieron.

La mente y el corazón de Drake estaban apenados, ya que se refería claramente a Laticha Bracero y su hija de 21 años de edad, Alyssa Cordova. El rapero añadió: "Que descansen en paz esa joven madre y su hija".

El trágico momento fue grabado en video: el dúo madre e hija salían del concierto de Drake y J. Cole en St. Louis la madrugada del 14 de febrero cuando un carro las golpeó a gran velocidad.

La policía dice que el hombre que presuntamente conducía el vehículo, Monte Henderson, se saltó varios semáforos en rojo antes de la colisión y acusó al joven de 22 años de dos cargos de homicidio involuntario y dos cargos de acción criminal armada.

Pese a esta triste noticia, el primero de los 2 conciertos de Drake en Buffalo no fue del todo sombrío. Un fan se asomó entre la multitud agitando un cartel que decía "Beat stage four cancer just in time for Drake #godsplan".

El rapero hizo que la ida al concierto valiera la pena para la mujer. La bendijo con $25k al igual que lo hizo en el video real de "God's Plan".

Lizzo is pushing back on the notion she turned down a cameo for the new Jennifer Lopez movie ... and it sounds like she would've come aboard if she knew about it.

Here's the deal ... J Lo revealed all the celebs who allegedly passed on roles in her recent flick "This Is Me ... Now" in a Prime Video doc about the making of her new album ... and Lizzo's name came up as being "unavailable."

However, Lizzo's singing a different tune, literally. In a TikTok post, Lizzo claims no one told her about the movie offer. She doubles down, claiming she wasn't asked to be in the flick.

No hard feelings from Lizzo though ... she looks into the camera and tells J Lo she loves her. So, she's not really bent out of shape -- but it does raise an eyebrow, no doubt.

Remember, in the 'Greatest Love Story Never Told' doc, J Lo tells her love story through her eyes ... but it sounds like the casting journey was full of twists and turns.

Among the celebs J Lo's teams said passed on the flick ... Lizzo, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Jason Momoa, Jennifer Coolidge, Vanessa Hudgens, Snoop Dogg, SZA, Bad Bunny and Anthony Ramos.

Most of the stars had legitimate conflicts ... Taylor was doing her 'Eras' tour and Ariana was filming "Wicked" across the pond ... but J Lo claims Khloé Kardashian backed out of a cameo at the last second.

Despite her reps saying a bunch of people passed on the project -- two people so far have come forward to refute that ... JC talked to a pap just yesterday and denied any knowledge, and now -- Lizzo's saying she, too, had no clue about this.

Of course, J Lo did manage to bag a couple big names ... including Sofia Vergara, Jane Fonda, Keke Palmer, Post Malone and Trevor Noah.

All's well that ends well, we suppose ... but it is weird that there are two different accounts of this.

Scott Storch is delinquent on a hefty bling bill ... so claims a Beverly Hills jeweler who's now filed a lawsuit over it!!!

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ Hip Hop, Peter Marco of Extraordinary Jewels is going after Storch for jewelry bills he says date back to January 2020 when the hip hop superproducer purchased a platinum ring for $71K stuffed full of GIA-certified diamonds.

Marco attached docs that he claims show Storch made several installment payments but then stopped paying in late 2021, leaving a remaining bill of $65,500.

The docs show Marco had his attorney send SS a demand letter in October 2023 -- and another in January of this year -- warning him a lawsuit would follow if the funds weren't sent over ... but it appears the letters didn't work, so here we are.

Drake's honoring the mother and daughter who died tragically after a recent show in St. Louis ... while also making another sweet gesture to somebody battling cancer.

During his Buffalo, NY concert Wednesday night at KeyBank Center, Drake took time to share an emotional message with the crowd, saying ... "You never know what somebody else's reality will be when they walk out of this building,"

He also encouraged fans in the audience to show love to a total stranger, which people did.

Drake's mind and heart were heavy as he was clearly referring to Laticha Bracero and her daughter, 21-year-old Alyssa Cordova, adding …"Rest in peace to that young mother and her child."

The tragic moment was caught on video ... the mother/daughter duo were leaving Drake and J. Cole's St. Louis concert on the early morning of February 14 when a car struck them at a high rate of speed.

Police say the man they allege was operating the vehicle, Monte Henderson, ran several red lights before the collision and charged the 22-year-old with two counts of involuntary manslaughter and two counts of armed criminal action.

Drake's first of his 2 Buffalo shows wasn't all somber though ... he peeped a fan in the crowd waving a sign that said “Beat stage four cancer just in time for Drake #godsplan.”

The rapper made the concert trip worth the woman's while -- he blessed her with $25k just like he did in the actual "God's Plan" video.

The woman suing Diddy for an alleged sexual assault she claims happened when she was in high school has to reveal her identity ... the judge just ruled she can't keep her identity under wraps as a Jane Doe if the case moves forward.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Diddy's accuser can no longer remain anonymous if her case against Diddy survives his attempt to get it dismissed.

The judge in the case denied the woman's motion to proceed anonymously ... but her identity will remain a secret at least until after the court decides whether to dismiss the case.

Diddy is trying to get the lawsuit against him tossed, and Thursday's ruling means if Diddy loses his motion to dismiss the case, the proceedings will move forward with the accuser's real name on the documents.

As we reported ... this Jane Doe filed suit against Diddy back in December 2023, claiming she was only 17 years old when Diddy and others sex trafficked and gang raped her. The woman alleges this all occurred way back in 2003 ... and she was among many people who came forward with old accusations against stars in NY late last year.

Diddy and his co-defendants argued they would suffer prejudice if the accuser got to remain anonymous while their identities were widely reported ... and it looks like they were able to convince the judge.
