El cantante y compositor de las Islas Vírgenes Británicas Iyaz tenía 21 años cuando saltó a la fama y llegó a millones de personas en todo el mundo, tras encabezar las listas con su álbum debut "Replay" en 2009.

La canción viral tiene 867 millones de escuchas en Spotify y alcanzó el número 2 en la lista Hot 100 de Billboard. "Solo", "Pretty Girls" y "We Are The World 25 For Haiti" son otras de sus canciones populares.

Iyaz se unirá a Usher, Janet Jackson, Snoop Dogg y otras estrellas de moda en el festival de música Lovers & Friends de este verano.

"Shawty es como una melodía en mi cabeza que no puedo dejar salir, ¡me tiene cantando na-na-na-na todos los días!".

Megan Thee Stallion's snake-driven campaign slithered away with a whimper when she met face-to-face with the real deal ... a bottle of alcohol with a dead snake stuffed inside!!!

The rapper is currently turning heads during a trip out in Japan that tested her "Fear Factor" meter -- this after she sampled Habushu, a traditionally super strong liquor native to Okinawa.

Apparently, it's powered by poison ... the local Habu snake is said to ferment inside the container to age as long as possible -- which makes for one hell of a boozy drink.

Welp, Meg dove in without hesitation and asked if the potion would send her to the morgue -- but she didn't chicken out ... taking a sip of the concoction, but not really liking it much.

Meg took a little slurp of the Habushu -- but this time around, she didn't drive the boat too far ... docking and anchoring her experience, saying the drink was too strong for her liking. Can't blame her ... drinking dead snake, even for a buzz, doesn't sound pleasant at all.

It's pretty funny ... Meg topped the Billboard Hot 100 a few weeks back with her single "Hiss" -- which was the follow-up to another reptilian record "Cobra." But, when it comes to the real McCoy ... she isn't into it, it seems.

Steve Lawrence, la mitad del icónico dúo musical Steve and Eydie, que solía ser telonero de Frank Sinatra y aparecer en un montón de programas de variedades, ha muerto.

Steve falleció el jueves como consecuencia de complicaciones derivadas del Alzheimer, según informó su hijo, David. David hizo pública una declaración tras la muerte de su padre que dice: "Mi padre fue una inspiración para mucha gente. Pero, para mí, solo era un tipo encantador, guapo e histéricamente divertido, que cantaba mucho. A veces solo y a veces con su increíblemente talentosa esposa".

Y añadió: "Tengo mucha suerte de haberlo tenido como padre y estoy muy orgulloso de ser su hijo. Mi esperanza es que sus contribuciones a la industria del entretenimiento sean recordadas por muchos años".

Con su esposa Eydie Gorme, Steve formó parte de uno de los dúos de cantantes más queridos del país en su momento. Steve and Eydie comenzaron en la década de 1950 y actuaron juntos hasta 2009, cuando ella se retiró.

Steve and Eydie cantaron en muchos programas de variedades y late-night shows, como "The Judy Garland Show", "The Julie Andrews Hour", "Night Gallery", "The Danny Kaye Show", "The Tonight Show" y muchos otros.

Él y su esposa también actuaron en clubes nocturnos de Las Vegas y, en la década de 1980, en el Carnegie Hall. Steve fue incluso telonero de Ol' Blue Eyes durante su gira "Diamond Jubilee", así que sí, en aquellos tiempos solía tocar con los mejores.

La canción más exitosa de Steve durante su carrera en solitario fue su sencillo de 1962 "Go Away, Little Girl", que alcanzó el número 1 en las listas de éxitos.

Como actor, obtuvo una nominación al Tony por su trabajo en el musical de Broadway "What Makes Sammy Run?". También protagonizó junto a Eydie el musical "Golden Rainbow".

Steve ganó un Primetime Emmy por un especial de televisión que celebraba a Irving Berlin y tenía un montón de otros créditos de televisión, en programas como "La niñera" y "Hot in Cleveland".

Lawrence tenía 88 años.

Steve Lawrence -- one half of the iconic music duo Steve and Eydie, who used to open for Frank Sinatra and be featured on tons of variety shows -- has died

Steve passed away Thursday as a result of complications from Alzheimer's disease ... this according to his son, David. He released a statement in the aftermath of his father's death -- saying, "My Dad was an inspiration to so many people. But, to me, he was just this charming, handsome, hysterically funny guy who sang a lot. Sometimes alone and sometimes with his insanely talented wife."

He added, "I am so lucky to have had him as a father and so proud to be his son. My hope is that his contributions to the entertainment industry will be remembered for many years to come."

With his wife Eydie Gorme, Steve was part of one of the country's most beloved singing duos way back in the day ... Steve and Eydie got their start in the 1950s and performed together until 2009, when she retired.

Steve and Eydie sang on lots of variety and late-night shows, including "The Judy Garland Show," "The Julie Andrews Hour," "Night Gallery," "The Danny Kaye Show," 'The Tonight Show,' and lots of others.

He and his wife also played Las Vegas nightclubs -- and in the 1980s ... they played sold-out shows at Carnegie Hall as well. Steve even opened for Ol' Blue Eyes during his 'Diamond Jubilee' tour ... so yeah, he used to roll with the best of them in those days.

Steve's biggest hit song from his solo career ... his 1962 single, "Go Away, Little Girl," which hit No. 1 on the charts.

As an actor, Steve earned a Tony nomination for his work in the Broadway musical "What Makes Sammy Run?" He also starred alongside Eydie in another musical, "Golden Rainbow."

Steve won a Primetime Emmy for a TV special celebrating Irving Berlin, and he had a bunch of other TV credits, on shows like "The Nanny" and "Hot in Cleveland."

Lawrence was 88.

Saweetie was all the way tapped in at Billboard's Women in Music last night with zero signs of stage fright ... a triumph after she went viral for struggling on the podium at another event.

TMZ Hip Hop obtained video of Saweetie inside the YouTube Theater booming with confidence in a sultry black split dress as she presented an artist with an Impact Award.

Saweetie wasn't the only one dazzling in a slinky wardrobe -- just ask Katy Perry, who tantalized the Billboard blue carpet in a g-string thong ... but the night was all about female empowerment.

Saweetie showed love to all the women in the room ... Ice Spice, Victoria Monet and Coco Jones, were definitely doing it for her.

She also put her USC degree to use and wooed the audience with a little Spanish speaking ... her shout-outs for Miko, Karol G and Bad Bunny even earned her brownie points with the crowd!!!

Rita Moreno dice que su ruptura con Marlon Brando la llevó directamente a los brazos de otro icono de Hollywood ... Elvis Presley.

La estrella de "West Side Story" le dijo recientemente a People que aceptó una cita con el Rey del Rock 'n' Roll después de que Marlon la dejara desconsolada. Esto, después de que descubriera la ropa interior de otra mujer mientras estaba en su casa.

Rita dice que Elvis no la invitó a salir, sino que hizo que su manager, el Coronel Tom Parker, la llamara. El Coronel le dijo a Rita: "Le gustó lo que vio y le gustaría mucho conocerte. ¿Te gustaría conocerlo?"

Como Rita estaba conmocionada por lo de Marlon, rápidamente aceptó la invitación.

Rita y Marlon, que conectaron por primera vez en 1954 en el rodaje de la película romántica "Désirée", tuvieron idas y venidas a lo largo de su relación de ocho años. A pesar de que él le rompió el corazón varias veces, la ganadora del Oscar aún lo considera uno de sus grandes amores.

En cuanto a lo que pasó con Elvis, dice que su aventura fue de corta duración. Rita le dijo a "The View" en 2021 que encontró al cantante "dulce pero aburrido". Aun así, es interesante escuchar años después que ella solo se acostó con él para vengarse de Marlon Brando.

Por supuesto, no estamos seguros si Priscilla Presley estuvo de acuerdo. Ella ha llamado a Elvis el amor de su propia vida y su relación fue bien documentada por la propia Priscilla.

De todos modos, Rita finalmente encontró su propio final feliz con el médico Leonard Gordon. Estuvieron casados durante 45 años antes de su muerte en 2010. Marlon terminó casándose tres veces en total antes de su muerte en 2004.

Rita Moreno says that her heartbreak from her relationship with Marlon Brando led her right into the arms of another Hollywood icon ... Elvis Presley.

The "West Side Story" star recently told People that she accepted a date from the King of Rock 'n' Roll after Marlon left her in tears -- this after she says she discovered another woman's underwear while at his house.

Rita says Elvis himself didn't ask her out, but rather ... he had his longtime manager, Colonel Tom Parker, call her up. The Colonel reportedly told Rita ... "He liked what he saw and he would like very much to meet you. Would you like to meet him?"

Because RM says she was shaken up over Marlon -- she quickly accepted the invitation.

Rita and Marlon -- who first connected in 1954 on the set of the romance film, "Désirée" -- were on and off over the course of their eight-year romance. Despite him breaking her heart on several occasions ... the Oscar winner still considers him one of her great loves.

As for what happened with Elvis ... their fling was short-lived -- Rita told "The View" in 2021 that she found the singer "sweet but boring." Still, it's interesting to hear all these years later that she only banged him to get back at MB.

Of course, we're not sure Priscilla Presley -- would agree ... she's called Elvis the love of her own life ... and their relationship was documented as quite momentous by PP herself.

Anyway, Rita eventually found her own happy ending with doctor Leonard Gordon -- they were married for 45 years before his death in 2010. Marlon ended up marrying three times in total before his death in 2004.

Nothing like a little walk down memory lane, huh?

Katy Perry sabe cómo cautivar al público con sus canciones, pero ahora lo está haciendo también con su tanga.

La cantante llegó el miércoles a los premios Billboard Women In Music Awards en Los Ángeles, posando para los paparazzi con un vestido carmesí y corsé, ambos atados con nudos en la parte posterior que dejaron completamente al descubierto su trasero.

Katy se giró para mostrar su retaguardia, asegurándose de que todo el mundo la viera bien. Pero como se puede ver, su tanga estaba bien la vista y ella no iba para nada tímida.

A Katy no parecía importarle en absoluto y, por supuesto, tampoco a los fotógrafos. Incluso sonrió, guiñó un ojo y sacó la lengua. De hecho, es muy Katy Perry de los 2010s.

Tras varios minutos, Katy se dirigió al interior del YouTube Theater para disfrutar del evento junto a otras notables artistas como Ice Spice, Victoria Monét y Ellie Goulding. Aunque Katy es difícil de superar, las otras damas también se veían muy bien.

También asistieron Karol G, galardonada como Mujer del Año, Charli XCX, Maren Morris, NewJeans, Tems y Young Miko. Traci Ellis Ross fue la anfitriona de la ceremonia.

Alex Rodríguez se anotó algunos puntos como padre tras llevar a su hija de 15 años a un concierto de Olivia Rodrigo, a pesar de que habría querido ir a dormir en su lugar.

El legendario bateador documentó su salida la noche del miércoles en un, sin querer, hilarante video de Instagram. En el clip, Rodríguez admite que está agotado de andar filmando, pero que está dando prioridad a pasar un buen momento con Ella en el concierto de Miami, a pesar de que claramente no sabe quién es la cantante.

De hecho, le dice a sus seguidores que está en un concierto de "Rodrigo", ¡antes de que Ella le enseñe el nombre completo de la cantante!

A-Rod estaba en el centro del Kaseya Center, donde pudo obtener una buena panorámica del concierto con la leyenda a través de la pantalla: "Olivia Rodrigo concierto rodeado de 22.000 chicas adolescentes y todo lo que quiero es ir a dormir".

Luego se acerca a Ella, quien está totalmente sumergida en el show, cantando el éxito "Vampire", de Rodrigo, como una verdadera fan. Incluso con sus ojos de padre dormido y viejo, Alex le dio un espaldarazo a la cantante con el mensaje: "Rodrigo es bastante buena para ser honestos".

A-Rod, que también es papá de Natasha, de 19 años, incluso se disculpó con Olivia en el pie de foto por confundir su nombre y prometió que no volvería a suceder.

Katy Perry knows how to wow an audience with her songs ... but now she's doing it with her thong.

On Wednesday night, the singer hit the 2024 Billboard Women In Music Awards in Los Angeles – posing for pap pics in a crimson dress and corset, both of which were laced up in the back, and which completely left her ass exposed.

Katy swung around to show her rear end, making sure everyone got a good look. As you can see, but her G-string was in full view -- and she wasn't shy about it.

Katy didn't seem to mind at all and, of course, neither did the photogs. She even flashed a grin, winked and stuck out her tongue. Indeed, it's very 2010s KP.

After several minutes, Katy walked off, heading inside the YouTube Theater to enjoy the event with other notable artists, such as Ice Spice, Victoria Monét and Ellie Goulding. Even though Katy was hard to beat ... the other ladies looked good too.

Other attendees included Karol G -- honored as Woman of the Year -- as well as Charli XCX, Maren Morris, NewJeans, Tems and Young Miko. Traci Ellis Ross hosted the awards show.

Alex Rodriguez scored some serious dad points by tagging along with his 15-year-old daughter to an Olivia Rodrigo concert -- even though he wanted to catch some zzz's instead.

The legendary slugger documented their outing Wednesday night in an, inadvertently, hilarious IG video ... as he admitted he was exhausted from filming all day, but was prioritizing some quality time with Ella at the Miami gig -- despite clearly not knowing who the singer is.

In fact, he tells his followers he's at a "Rodrigo" concert ... before Ella schools him on the singer's full name!

A-Rod was in the thick of it inside Kaseya Center, panning the camera around with the caption across the screen, "Olivia Rodrigo concert surrounded by 22,000 teenage girls, and all I wanna do is go to sleep."

He then zooms in on Ella, who's totally in her element, belting out Olivia's hit track "Vampire" like a true fan. Even with his sleepy/old dad eyes, Alex had to give the singer props with his caption, "Rodrigo is pretty good TBH."

A-Rod, who is also dad to 19-year-old Natasha, even apologized to Olivia in the caption for messing up her name, and promised it won't happen again.

Before this stylish New Jersey native turned into a talented singer and actress, she was just listening to the radio, landing TV commercials for Wendy's and heading off to Los Angeles with big dreams at just 13 years old.

Her popular song "Dip It Low" hit the top of the Billboard Charts back in 2004, so while she may be most known for her singing skills, don't count her out from acting ... She starred in "Love Don't Cost A Thing" with Nick Cannon.

"Dip it low, pick it up slow, roll it all around..."

Antes de que esta estilosa nativa de Nueva Jersey se convirtiera en una talentosa cantante y actriz, solo escuchaba la radio, protagonizaba anuncios de televisión para Wendy's y se marchaba a Los Ángeles con grandes sueños cuando tenía apenas 13 años.

Su popular canción "Dip It Low" llegó a lo más alto de las listas Billboard en 2004, así que, aunque sea más conocida por sus dotes como cantante, no hay que descartar su faceta como actriz... Protagonizó "Love Don't Cost A Thing" con Nick Cannon.

"Sumérgelo, levántalo despacio, hazlo rodar...".

Rick Ross says he had no ill intent when he documented Tyreek Hill's house fire earlier this year ... claiming he was actually a good guy in the situation.

Cheetah unloaded on the rapper this week ... saying it was pretty messed up of him to post footage of the emergency for his 19.4 million followers to see.

Rozay got wind of Hill's gripe ... and he thinks it's all a misunderstanding.

"Tyreek Hill, I wasn't picking on you homie," Ross said on Instagram. "I wasn't picking on you at all."

RR pointed out he did not share any footage of Hill's loved ones at the scene ... and news coverage of the incident was already underway by the time he started recording -- so what's it matter if he makes his own content??

"And, let's not act like I'm the one that premiered the fire to the world," he said. "It was five helicopters circling over your crib and my crib. We stay across the street from each other."

"I didn't post you and your girl outside, I didn't post mom, none of that. But the s*** was everywhere, homie."

On a side note, Rozay also knocked the fire department ... saying he thought they did a bad job at attacking the flames on Jan. 3.

As for his conversation with a fireman that Hill mentioned, RR also had a defense for that ... claiming he was only interacting with the responder to see if he could help Hill's mom take a seat.

Kodak Black helped deliver his newborn son last week -- and made sure the little guy was freshly dressed for his world debut!!!

TMZ Hip Hop obtained the first photo of Kodak's newborn son, who he and his girlfriend Maranda Johnson named Prince Kapri.

Kodak tells us … "I'm happy to be home with my family and my new son. It was very special to help deliver a new soul into the world. I know he's going to be a special person."

Prince was born on February 27 and the newly minted father/son duo captured a stylish photo-op for the birthday -- Kodak was decked out in a baby blue t-shirt and jeans, and Prince was wrapped in a baby blanket and cap with matching colors.

Prince's arrival makes him Kodak's 4th kid -- his 2nd with Maranda, and the "Super Gremlin" rapper is approaching parenthood with flair.

Just take a look at the blinged-out pacifier he had dangling around his neck ... that's gotta be worth a lifetime supply of diapers!!!

Camila Cabello está soltando todo sobre su breve reconciliación con Shawn Mendes, incluyendo lo que causó su separación final... y parece que simplemente no eran el uno para el otro.

La cantante fue a "Call Her Daddy" de Alex Cooper, donde reveló que su reunión con Shawn terminó tan rápido como empezó. Al parecer, ella y Shawn se dieron cuenta de que a pesar de su caliente aparición en Coachella 2023, no eran tan buena pareja pensaban.

Camila dijo que volvió a salir con él en un impulso, pero pronto se dieron cuenta de que no estaba funcionando y que no necesitaban forzar la relación. Camila recordó decidir solo para ser amigos con Shawn ... Diciendo que ella y Shawn terminaron en buenos términos.

Las dos estrellas del pop salieron previamente entre 2019 y 2021, y la cita fue ni más ni menos que una noche de la gira "Eras" de Taylor Swift en mayo.

No suena como que Camila lamente el romance reavivado, llamándolo un "momento divertido".

La diversión no terminó allí para Camila, ya que fue vista de vacaciones con Drake en las islas Turcas y Caicos el pasado mes de diciembre. Sin embargo, Camila aclaró que no todo fue diversión, también fue un viaje de trabajo... etiquetándolo como "vacaciones de amigos".

Desafortunadamente, la cantante se mantuvo hermética sobre si ella y Drizzy hicieron algo más que hacer música. Pero confesó: "Diré que lo amo".

Shawn, por su parte, también ha pasado de Camila después de haber sido vinculado a la presentadora británica Charlie Travers el otoño pasado. Recuerde, Shawn y Charlie fueron vistos disfrutando de un día de playa en ropa interior después de vincularse en West Hollywood en noviembre.
