Taylor Swift no solo puede sacudir un estadio, también puede hacer temblar la tierra, según quedó demostrado luego que sus fans causaran un mini terremoto el año pasado, lo que es una locura.

Caltech y UCLA realizaron un estudio para monitorear cuánto temblaba el suelo durante un concierto de Taylor en 2023, específicamente, en uno de sus seis shows en Los Ángeles en el SoFi Stadium y resulta que los Swifties hicieron que la aguja se moviera ese día.

La sismóloga Gabrielle Tepp, que supervisó este estudio dice que los datos muestran que su concierto "Eras" del 5 de agosto, que acogió a más de 70.000 fans, registró una notable actividad sísmica.

Tepp y compañía monitorearon cada canción de su larga lista con estaciones remotas ubicadas dentro a 5,6 millas del estadio y dice que sus registros muestran que su actuación de "Shake It Off" marcó el punto más alto de la noche, con un pico de magnitud de 0,851.

Tepp señala que las estaciones sísmicas que registraron estos datos captaron el baile y los saltos de los fans, y que las reverberaciones de la música no estaban incluidas. Tepp dice que su interpretación de "Love Story" también dejó una notable impresión en el medidor.

¡Con todo, Tepp dice que el movimiento del show de Los Ángeles causó temblores que equivalen a un terremoto de magnitud 2, lo que es relativamente pequeño, pero aun así bastante impresionante por parte de los fans de Taylor!

Según los informes, sus fans de Seattle también causaron movimientos telúricos similares a principios del verano pasado... niveles de temblores.

Taylor Swift can not only rock the house, she can rock the earth itself -- something proven by the fact that her fans caused a mini earthquake last year ... which is insane.

A study was conducted by Caltech and UCLA, which monitored just how much the ground was shaking during one of Taylor's concerts in 2023 -- specifically, one of her six L.A. shows at SoFi stadium ... and as it turns out, the Swifties that day made the needle move.

Seismologist Gabrielle Tepp -- who oversaw this study -- says data shows that her Aug. 5 "Eras" concert, which hosted upwards of 70,000 fans, registered notable seismic activity.

Tepp and co. monitored each song from her long set list with remote stations that were within 5.6 miles of the stadium and he says their records show that her performance of "Shake It Off" clocked in at the highest point through the night, with a peak magnitude of 0.851.

He notes that the seismic stations recording this were capturing the dancing and jumping going on from fans -- and the reverberations from the music itself isn't included in this. Tepp says her performance of "Love Story" that night also left a notable impression on the meter.

All in all, Tepp says the L.A. show movement caused tremors that equated to a magnitude-2 earthquake -- which is relatively small ... but still pretty impressive from the Taylor fan base!

Her Seattle fans reportedly caused similar waves earlier last summer as well ... earthquake levels.

Beyoncé saddled up and unveiled her alternate "Cowboy Carter" album cover art Wednesday, and Erykah Badu's all fired up about it ... thinking it's a full imitation of her, and, no, she's not flattered!

She's accusing Bey of copying her signature beaded bob hairdo without so much as a thank you, prompting Erykah to repost the image with a mockingly curious "Hmmm" caption.

Fans, especially Beyoncé's, immediately took note of EB's allegation of a style jacking.

In fact, the Beyhive is so riled up, Erykah switched from IG to X, where she urged Jay-Z to come to her rescue, posting ... "Say somethin Jay. You gone let this woman and these bees do this to me??"

Tough position for her to put Hov in -- after all, that's his wife Erykah's insulting!!!

It's interesting for Erykah to single out on the hairstyle, because Beyoncé's alternate "Cowboy Carter" album cover art (for vinyl LPs) has a lot happening -- the singer poses in the buff, only covered in a sash with "Act II" and "Beyince," her cousin Angie's last name, stamped across the front.

Yet, Erykah's laser-focused on that hair.

Remember, Erykah also targeted Bey last year over hats she wore during her "Renaissance" tour, which she also thought ripped off her style.

50 Cent's "Power Book II: Ghost" is coming to an end next season, and while one of its stars, Gianni Paolo, says he'll continue working with the G-Unit visionary ... he also says losing his show sucks!!!

Gianni linked with TMZ Hip Hop at LAX, and like his costar Michael Rainey Jr. -- who was disgusted by the cancelation -- he feels the show's tight-knit cast is simply getting a bitter taste of Hollywood's revolving door.

Starz CEO Jeff Hirsch recently explained how budget costs go up after 3rd and 4th seasons, and Gianni confirms to us they did get raises -- but, still, he didn't expect to get canceled after the show set Starz ratings records!

Season 3's opener broke Starz's record for its biggest weekend viewership and Gianni tells us he couldn't believe the network still decided to dump the show.

He thinks getting stingy on production costs isn't the move, and alludes to other Starz shows being made for cheaper ... and looking like it.

Gianni didn't name names, but the latest episode of 'BMF' just got reamed online for featuring a "knockoff Tupac Shakur" in a cameo role.

Regardless, he says 50 and series creator Courtney A. Kemp were nothing but good to him and he's onboard for whatever their next project is.

Megan Fox says her paranoia surrounding surgery has been her saving grace in not going under the knife too much ... even though she admits she's had quite a lot of work done.

The actress appeared on Wednesday's episode of "Call Her Daddy," where she opened up about all her plastic surgery experiences -- including a lengthy pre-op routine she says she requires all her surgeons to follow, 'cause she wants to make sure there's no bad energy.

MF says she responds poorly to general anesthesia, so she demands that her doctors tell her if they've seen any bad omens before cutting into her ... take a listen to what those are.

On the actual procedures themselves -- Megan admits to having had three separate boob jobs, and insists she's only had her nose worked once, despite what some people think. She also teases a mystery surgery she's had as well ... but wouldn't disclose what that was.

Megan also says she's considered a BBL -- but notes she doesn't have the body fat for it.

Anyway ... there was more Megan talked about -- including the fact she and Machine Gun Kelly drink each other's blood ... which has been accused of being Satanic.

Megan defends the practice here ... saying it's a lot more innocent than folks think -- likening it to two kids putting their bleeding thumbs together on the playground when they think they've found their "soulmate." She says she and MGK share that kind of bond.

She's also got a pretty graphic comparison in making her point -- saying she finds girls who engage in oral sex so freely to be way more gross than anything she's doing with her man.

Megan Fox dice que su paranoia en torno a la cirugía ha sido su salvación para no excederse con el bisturí, a pesar de que admite que se ha hecho más de una intervención.

La actriz apareció en el episodio del miércoles de "Call Her Daddy", donde se abrió sobre todas sus experiencias de cirugía plástica, incluyendo una larga rutina pre-operatoria que dice que le exige a todos sus cirujanos a seguir, porque quiere asegurarse de que no hay mala energía.

Megan dice que responde mal a la anestesia general, por lo que le exige que sus médicos que le digan si han visto algún mal presagio antes de proceder.

En cuanto a las operaciones, Megan admite que se ha operado tres veces el busto e insiste en que solo se ha operado la nariz una vez, a pesar de lo que algunos piensan. Ella también bromea sobre una cirugía misteriosa, pero no reveló mucho más.

Megan también dice que ha considerado una gluteoplastía, pero señala que no tiene la grasa corporal para hacerlo.

Megan también habló sobre el hecho de que ella y Machine Gun Kelly bebían la sangre del otro, acto por el que se les tilda de satánicos.

Megan defiende la práctica, diciendo que es mucho más inocente de lo que la gente piensa, y lo compara con dos niños que ponen sus pulgares sangrantes juntos en el patio de recreo cuando piensan que han encontrado su "alma gemela". Ella dice que ella y MGK comparten ese tipo de vínculo.

Además, asegura las niñas que participan el sexo oral con libertad entre ellas son mucho más sangrientas...

The MLB's season opener between the Dodgers and Padres looked more like the Super Bowl ... with K-pop group aespa putting on a halftime show-esque performance right in the outfield before the game!!

The mini concert went down shortly before the first matchup of the 2024 campaign on Wednesday ... as part of the league's Seoul Series in South Korea.

Karina, Giselle, Winter and Ningning made their way to centerfield to dance and belt out couple of their hit songs -- "Drama" and "Next Level" -- to get the spectators hype before first pitch.

The renditions included a drumline, a ton of background dancers and lasers ... and the crowd clearly loved it!!

The ladies waved to the fans as they exited the outfield ... clearly pleased with their effort.

FYI -- aespa has blown up in the music industry since making their debut in 2020 ... quickly becoming one of the most successful girl groups in the genre.

It's not the only K-pop crossover during the Dodgers' time in Seoul -- as we previously reported, Seungmin of the popular boy group Stray Kids threw out the ceremonial toss prior to L.A.'s exhibition against Team Korea on Monday.

Meek Mill and Akademiks' 7-figure deal to squash their beef with body blows is still an option -- but YK Osiris is advising you not to wager on either guy ... and simply bet on him.

Yep, the R&B star took time out of his NYC hustle and bustle to laugh off Meek and Ak's unresolved clash -- telling TMZ Hip Hop he's confident he'll pummel them both in the ring!!! 🥊

YK hits the high notes, but loves his boxing highlights as well ... having sparred with Lil Uzi Vert, Tjay and Blueface in the past.

Damon Feldman, CEO of Official Celebrity Boxing, drummed up and sent out an agreement for both Meek and Ak to sign ... $1M for participating and an additional million for the winner!!!

Quite the payoff for beating up your arch-nemesis but we're told neither Ak or Meek have responded to OCB's request to sign the paperwork.

They may be moving toward a more peaceful solution ... Ak recently offered Meek a million dollars of his own for a year-long podcast deal, which probably won't happen either.

Ak recently scolded Meek for flip-flopping on his stance about street life -- much like Dee-1 did months ago, and the two seem to be in their comfort zone yelling at one another on X.

Megan Fox is finally speaking out about the status of her relationship with Machine Gun Kelly, and while she's trying to be coy ... she's also hinting there could be trouble in paradise.

The one thing Megan was very clear about while on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, was that her romance with MGK will no longer play out in the public eye -- and then she attempted to play the "no comment" card in a very cryptic way.

Try to decipher this -- Megan told host Alex Cooper she will always have love for MGK ... referring to the artist as her "twin soul," and there will always be "a tether to him, no matter what."

The comment suggests they're no longer engaged, but Megan refused to say anything specific about their current status.

For anyone scratching their heads over the starlet's vague relationship update, she confessed that she can see how it is confusing for the public to understand.

That's nice of her ... but still totally lacking clarity.

Megan's statement comes not long after MGK opened up about his grief in the aftermath of their miscarriage a while back. He got candid about it in the song, "Don't Let Me Go," which dropped at the end of February.

The couple still hasn't set a wedding date -- 2 years after getting engaged -- but things have been rocky since last year when Megan fueled breakup speculation with a post quoting song lyrics from Beyoncé's "Lemonade" album.

Maybe MGK's massive new tattoo was a sign things were changing? If so, Megan's not ready to fully come clean.

Dr. Dre recently stamped Eminem as the greatest MC to ever touch a microphone -- but Kurupt is saying the root of the greatest begins with the 18th letter - Rakim Allah!!!

TMZ Hip Hop got a few seconds to chop it up with Tha Dogg Pound chief outside Dre's WOF ceremony.

Kurupt and Dre have been tight since their chart-topping Death Row days, and he was outside showing support as Daz Dillinger stayed AWOL.

Dre recently told James Corden he thinks Em is the best rapper ever ... he watched him blossom into the hip hop megastar under his watch, and says he's earned the honor.

Kurupt's a diehard hip hop aficionado himself, and quickly picked Dre as rap's greatest producer, while also giving Em his props as one of the greats -- but firmly tells us Rakim is on the top of any list worth arguing over!!!

Em likely wouldn't argue either ... he calls Rakim one of the G.O.A.T.s as well, and credits the "Paid in Full" creator with being the first MC he heard using complex rhyme patterns ... ultimately pushing Slim Shady to take things to another level.

Megan Fox finalmente está hablando sobre su relación con Machine Gun Kelly, y aunque fue algo esquiva, también insinúo que podría haber problemas entre ellos.

La única cosa en la que Megan fue muy clara es que su romance con MGK ya no se desarrollará en el ojo público, según contó en el podcast "Call Her Daddy", y luego trató de jugar la carta del "sin comentarios" de una manera muy críptica.

Traten de descifrar esto, Megan le dijo a la anfitriona Alex Cooper que siempre querrá a Machine Gun Kelly, refiriéndose al artista como su "alma gemela", y que siempre habrá "una atadura a él, no importa qué".

El comentario sugiere que ya no están comprometidos, pero Megan se negó a decir algo específico sobre su estado actual.

Para todos los que se están tomando la cabeza con esta vaga actualización sobre su relación, ella misma confesó que entiende lo confuso que puede ser para el público.

Eso es tierno de su parte, pero sigue siendo igualmente confuso.

La declaración de Megan se produce poco después de que MGK se abriera sobre el dolor que vivieron por su aborto involuntario hace un tiempo. Se sinceró al respecto en la canción, "Don't Let Me Go", que salió a fines de febrero.

La pareja aún no ha fijado una fecha para su boda, dos años después de que se comprometieron, pero las cosas han sido difíciles desde el año pasado, cuando Megan alimentó las especulaciones sobre una ruptura con un post donde citaba letras de canciones del álbum "Lemonade" de Beyoncé.

Scheana Shay está sugiriendo que se acostó con John Mayer... y parece que no estaban solos en la cama.

La estrella de "Vanderpump Rules" hizo la confesión durante el episodio del martes, donde compartió durante un juego llamado "Never Have I Ever", que participó en una orgía mucho antes de conocer a su marido Brock Davies.

En una confesión para "VPR", profundizó un poco más, confirmando que su compañero de orgía era una celebridad muy conocida. Luego dejó caer una pista no tan sutil insinuando la identidad de John, cuando dijo que su cuerpo era un país de las maravillas en aquel entonces.

Esta no es la primera vez que Scheana ha hablado sobre su pasado romance con John -que es el mejor amigo de Andy Cohen. Recordemos que Scheana comentó en el pódcast "Flashbacks" en 2020 que conoció a John cuando todavía estaba saliendo con Jennifer Aniston.

Al parecer, el trío salió de fiesta en Beverly Hills, pero nada íntimo sucedió entonces. Después de que John y Jen terminaron, según la historia, el cantante llamó a Scheana, quien dijo que terminó en una pareja con John y la veterana de "Hills" Stacie Adams (AKA la chica que agitó las aguas en la relación de Spencer Pratt y Heidi Montag).

El romance duró solo seis meses, ya que Scheana afirmó que se alejó de la pareja  luego de luchar con los celos. Aunque la amistad de Scheana y Stacie sobrevivió al drama, Stacie notablemente sirvió como dama de honor en la primera boda de Scheana con su ex Mike Shay.

Jimmie Allen's estranged wife is breaking her silence, saying lies can't remain secret forever -- a very thinly veiled reference to the country singer announcing he's had 2 more kids with another woman.

Alexis Gale posted a video Tuesday addressing the controversy ... while making it seem pretty clear she's totally done with Jimmie amid all of the indiscretions.

Check out the video ... Alexis can't even seem to find the words at first, before laughing and telling her nearly 40k followers that lies will always catch up to you -- and actions performed in the dark will eventually see the light.

AG says she's putting her faith in God, and says she's done talking specifically about her situation with Jimmie ... but couldn't help saying people will always expose their true colors given long enough.

Gale ended on a positive note ... explaining she planned on getting on with both her day and her life it seems without giving Jimmie's newborn twins another thought.

That being said, on Wednesday she posted text reading, "character is who you are when no one's watching." Now who could she be talking about??? 🤔

ICYMI ... the country singer shared photos of ALL his kids Tuesday -- including a pic of the twins who were born to a different woman last year.

While the kids were born during divorce proceedings between Jimmie and Alexis, they were seemingly conceived before he and Alexis announced their separation.

He apologized to Alexis last May, basically saying he was sorry he embarrassed her by cheating on her, and they actually reconciled in October -- about a month after their own son Cohen was born.

Travis Kelce just pulled off a Taylor Swift impression, crooning part of the chorus of one the pop star's biggest hits -- and ... it wasn't awful!!

The Kansas City Chiefs star belted out "Bad Blood" on this week's episode of his "New Heights" podcast ... when he and his big bro, Jason, were talking about the Eagles' recent addition of Kenny Pickett.

Jason told the audience his former team acquired the quarterback in a trade with the Steelers ... before Travis jumped in to explain Pittsburgh simply had to make the move because the former first-round pick was upset over the recent addition of Russell Wilson.

"Kenny and the Steelers," he said, "their relationship ended in a little baaaaaaad bloooood!"

"Because," Travis continued, "Kenny is saying he preferred to move on."

Jason let the tune go without further reaction -- and the two didn't make reference to Travis' girlfriend again during the episode.

Travis, though, did talk about a night out in L.A. that he had sans Swift last week -- raving to Jason about the Justin Timberlake show he attended.

Travis gushed about the "Suit & Tie" singer's concert -- calling it a "fun evening" while urging all of his fans to buy JT's new album.

Scheana Shay seems to be suggesting she banged John Mayer -- but more than just that ... there appears to have been other people in the bedroom too.

The "Vanderpump Rules" star made the confession during Tuesday's episode ... where she shared during a game of "Never Have I Ever" that she partook in an orgy long before meeting husband Brock Davies.

In a confessional for 'VPR,' SS elaborated a bit more ... confirming her orgy partner was an A-list celeb. She then dropped a not-so-subtle clue hinting at John's identity ... as she said her body was a wonderland at the time.

This isn't the first time Scheana has spilled on her past fling with John -- who is notably BFFs with Bravo bigwig Andy Cohen. Remember, Scheana shared on the "Flashbacks" podcast in 2020 that she first met John when he was still dating Jennifer Aniston.

Apparently, the trio partied together at a bash in Beverly Hills ... but nothing intimate happened then. After John and Jen called it quits, as the story goes, the singer called up Scheana ... who said she ended up in a throuple with John and "Hills" vet Stacie Adams (AKA the girl who stirred the pot in Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag's relationship).

The romance lasted only six months, as Scheana claimed she bounced from the throuple after struggling with jealousy. Though Scheana and Stacie's friendship made it through the drama -- Stacie notably served as a bridesmaid in Scheana's first wedding to ex Mike Shay.

Fue un martes de costumbre para Kanye West, mientras desfilaba con su sexy y medio desnuda esposa Bianca Censori por Los Ángeles para que todos la vieran.

La última salida de Ye con Bianca fue, por supuesto, filmada por los paparazzi en West Hollywood mientras la pareja visitaba una tienda de helados y un salón de bronceado, además de otras rápidas paradas en el camino.

Como de costumbre, Bianca estaba apenas cubierta con una ajustada minifalda plateada, la parte superior del bikini y un tanga que dejaba al descubierto sus nalgas. Curiosamente, Bianca parecía la viva imagen de Kim Kardashian en las fotos que le tomaron a la estrella de reality en un bikini plateado allá por 2018. Como se sabe, Kim y Kanye se divorciaron en 2022 después de casi 7 años de matrimonio.

Kanye, por el contrario, estaba completamente vestido con una camisa de manga larga negra y pantalones mientras paseaba con Bianca, quien se refrescó con un gran cono de helado.

Solo echa un vistazo a las fotos obtenidas por TMZ, hablan por sí mismas.

Como hemos informado, esto no es nada nuevo para Kanye y Bianca. La pareja ha estado causando alboroto en todo el mundo con las exhibiciones públicas de Bianca. Y Kanye está claramente muy de acuerdo con todo.
