Funkmaster Flex doesn't care about understanding the music generation gap -- he's calling Tommy Richman's hit, "Million Dollar Baby" garbage, and says the same about YOU ... if you think the song is hot!!!

A social media user caught wind of Flex giving an unhinged review of "Million Dollar Baby" while on the air at Hot 97 ... calling any, and everyone, requesting the track a straight-up clown.

'MDB' is clearly Tommy's biggest hit -- it peaked at No. 2 in May on the Billboard Hot 100 right behind Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" -- but the VA native has been making music since 2016.

1:38 PM PT -- At a hearing Monday, the judge presiding over this case ended up siding with Madonna's legal team -- namely, there was clearly NO settlement that had been struck, and some kind of miscommunication occurred. He struck the settlement notice, and the case will proceed.

The plaintiffs now have until July to respond to Madonna's motion to dismiss.

Madonna's lawyer is firing back after plaintiffs in her delayed concert lawsuit claimed a settlement had been reached between them ... which he says is absolute bull crap.

Carrie Underwood capped off her concert this weekend by belting out tunes in the rain -- but there was an even more dramatic finish as she was exiting the stage ... 'cause she fell.

The singer was the headlining performance Sunday night at the Carolina Country Music Fest in Myrtle Beach -- where she put on one helluva show that ended up getting highlighted by the fact there was a downpour that seemed to come out of nowhere toward the end.

As much of a spectacle as that was ... there was something else that caught fans' attention as Carrie was making her way offstage -- and that would be her going down, seemingly hard. Even crazier is the fact that it was caught on video ... and we got a hold of the footage.

Billie Eilish says she's been ghosted before -- in fact, it happened recently ... by some dude she says she knew for a long time, who just decided to cut her out one random day.

The singer shared a recent interpersonal horror story on the BBC podcast "Miss Me?" -- telling hosts Lily Allen and Miquita Oliver about the craziest instance of ghosting she's ever experienced ... which happened just half a year ago.

Billie says she was talking to a guy back in December and they were on the phone one day, making a plan to hang out. She says she invited him over to her house, gave him a time and sent the address ... but the guy never showed and went radio silent.

A red Ferrari that once belonged to Cher just sold to the highest bidder ... and the new owner shelled out over half a mil for the vintage sportscar.

The singer's former 1972 Ferrari 246 Dino GTS changed hands Monday, going for $568,000 at auction. Cher bought the Ferrari brand new in '72, and she owned it for a couple years before it was acquired by a famous racer, Chris Cord.

The specs on this set of wheels are pretty cool ... it's painted a custom shade of red, Rosso Chiaro, with a Nero leather interior and a 2.4-liter V6 engine.

Rihanna was spotted in the Big Apple rocking her natural hair -- this just a week after announcing her new hair care line ... and it's possible the two things may be aligned.

The billionaire beauty mogul was spotted rockin' her own curls Sunday -- ditching her extensions and wigs to flaunt her short, blonde-dyed locks in all their curly glory while out and about.

RiRi has sported short hair looks before ... but going completely au naturel with her hair is a bit of a rarity. But, as you can see, it totally suits her and only further cements her beauty icon status.

Donald Trump clearly isn't afraid of Swifties ... expressing a fearless stance on Taylor Swift's physical appearance and political beliefs -- which seem to have the guy conflicted.

The ex-Prez discussed the pop star with Variety Co-Editor-in-Chief Ramin Setoodeh for his new book, "Apprentice in Wonderland: How Donald Trump and Mark Burnett Took America Through the Looking Glass" -- and DT had nothing but kind words ... for Taylor's looks.

In the interview, which took place in November, Trump noted ... "I think she’s beautiful -- very beautiful! I find her very beautiful. I think she’s liberal. She probably doesn’t like Trump. I hear she’s very talented. I think she’s very beautiful, actually -- unusually beautiful!"

Maren Morris has shared a major life update perfectly timed for Pride Month ... announcing some very personal news with her fans online.

The country singer took to Instagram Sunday and shared a series of photos from her "RSVP Redux" tour stop in Phoenix, Arizona -- where she proudly waved a Pride flag at one point during her concert.

Maren confirmed she was a member of the LGBTQ+ community, writing in the caption ... "happy to be the B in LGBTQ+ happy pride 🌈."

Meghan McCain says Jennifer Lopez is getting bad-mouthed and dog-piled these days -- which is odd ... 'cause she just threw some extra shade herself with an ugly anecdote.

The ex-talk show host didn't have very nice things to say about J Lo on her most recent podcast episode -- recounting a time when Jen was on "The View," and claiming she was "deeply unpleasant" ... and, allegedly, not a very nice person -- at least according to MMC.

Take a listen ... Meg doesn't specify what year this all happened, but says that during a time when Jen was a guest on the show, she just wasn't all that sweet -- and didn't fake it either.

Ariana Grande's making sure fans know "the boy is mine" ... stepping out with Ethan Slater for a rare date night out.

The "Wicked" costars attended the 2024 Stanley Cup playoff game Saturday at the Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, FL, where they cheered on the Florida Panthers ... a team Ariana grew up watching as an FL native.

While Ariana and Ethan tend to keep a low profile -- he is still in the middle of a divorce -- the duo's been stepping out more together lately. Last week, Ariana went to Ethan's week-long residency at Cafe Carlyle in NYC.

Taylor Swift's serious about her fans' health ... straight-up refusing to sing until security could get to someone who apparently needed help -- and narrating the whole situation.

New video -- now circulating on X -- shows the singer-songwriter onstage in Edinburgh, Scotland Friday ... strumming the notes to her song "Would've, Could've, Should've" before she sees a few of her fans in her crowd she feels need assistance.

Over the microphone, Taylor says there's someone right in front of her who needs help ... and adds she's not going to sing until event staff rushes to aid the fans.

Megan Thee Stallion's performance in Florida proved more emotional than most fans probably expected ... 'cause Meg barely held back tears right before playing one of her hits.

The rapper took the stage at the Amalie Arena in Tampa Saturday night ... and, the usually unbothered Meg was clearly going through something onstage -- all caught on video by one fan in attendance.

Check out the video -- posted to TikTok and going viral on X -- Meg's just about to launch into her hit "Cobra" ... a single from her third studio album "Megan" coming out at the end of the month.

Danny O'Donoghue says a night out with Tom Jones ended with him in the hospital ... 'cause he couldn't keep up with the legendary crooner -- despite being 40 years younger!!!

The singer -- best known as the front man of The Script -- says he once tried to go drink-for-drink with Jones while they both starred on the UK version of "The Voice" in the early 2010s.

O'Donoghue says he and Sir Tom hit a hotel in Manchester one night and started drinking champagne around midnight -- and, they didn't stop until around 6 AM.

The father of the late Kim Porter is speaking out about the now infamous Diddy-Cassie beatdown video – slamming the music mogul for his "despicable" attack on her.

During a phone interview, Jake Porter told Rolling Stone mag he fought in the Vietnam War and would never treat his enemy the way Diddy viciously assaulted his ex-girlfriend Cassie in the surveillance footage.

As you know, Kim was also one of Diddy's girlfriends, dating him from 1994 to 2007 and sharing three children with him. In 2018, Kim died from pneumonia in her Los Angeles home.

Coldplay has figured out Greece is the word when it comes to celebs hitting up their concerts.

Joe Jonas, Luke Evans, Kylie Minogue and Liam Hemsworth were among the stars who came to see Chris Martin and Co. Saturday in Athens.

Jonas filmed a bunch of them during the show at the OAKA Olympic Stadium. They were all goofin' for the cam as the band played "Yellow," when Jonas turns the camera to Liam, who is fully into the show, fist-pumping as he takes in the song with GF Gabriella Brooks.

Kanye West is showing signs of being a cuckold, at least based on the raunchy texts he allegedly sent the former employee suing him for sexual harassment ... so says "Couples Therapy" star Dr. Jenn Mann.

The good doc tells TMZ ... Kanye's alleged texts --- which are central to the lawsuit filed against him -- convey a kind of enjoyment of knowing about women he's sleeping with having sex with someone else, and wanting descriptions of their encounters.

Remember ... Ye's former assistant Lauren Pisciotta claims in her lawsuit Kanye once texted her, "See my problem is I be wanting to f*** but then after I f*** I want a girl to tell me how hard they been f***ed while I'm f***ing them. Then I want her to cheat on me ..."
