Justin Timberlake's DWI arrest was caught on body cam video -- but cops aren't planning to release it to the public anytime soon ... at least not until their investigation is wrapped.

TMZ officially submitted a request for a copy of the video -- which we know was taken during the time of the arrest early Tuesday -- and Sag Harbor PD just got back to us with their response ... saying they're denying the request for the footage, and citing a statute that's interesting.

According to SHPD ... the reason they won't drop the body cam video (for now) is because of a specific New York law that deals with the release of public records.

Travis Scott isn't sticking around in Miami after being busted by the cops last night -- 'cause the dude's already booking it on a private jet outta town ... and we got the pics.

The rap star boarded a private jet Thursday morning at an exclusive airport in the area -- and as you can see in the photos TMZ obtained ... he was rolling solo as he was boarding the aircraft, looking relatively relaxed and stress-free considering what he'd gone through.

There was a guy helping TS load some of his luggage -- a Louis Vuitton briefcase, it seems -- and while we're told this flight took off just before 2 PM ET ... our sources say it was originally scheduled to take off in the wee hours of the morning at around 4 A.M.

A man is suing Lil Uzi Vert, Floyd Mayweather and several of the boxing legend's Money Team employees, claiming they contributed to an ass-kicking he took last summer -- but Uzi says he had nothing to do with it.

The man's name is Abdullah Ali, and according to the lawsuit he filed Thursday in New York ... members of Mayweather's TMT team and Lil Uzi roughed him up on June 27, 2023 after he had simply tried to catch a glimpse of what appeared to be a Mayweather-owned trailer while it was parked near an NYC hotel.

Ali's celebrity attorneys, Matthew Blit and Michael Rose, tell TMZ Sports ... Ali had crossed a street for a better view, and began filming when a Rolls-Royce was unloaded from the trailer.

Taylor Swift's private jet ended up in the crosshairs of a political protest -- environmental activists tagged multiple planes at an airfield she'd landed at ... but missed the target.

Just Stop Oil -- a British environmental activist group focused on human-caused climate change -- took responsibility for the vandalism Thursday ... confirming they were specifically going after Taylor's private plane.

The org says protesters Jennifer Kowalski and Cole Macdonald entered the private airfield at Stansted airport around 5 AM ... and sprayed paint on PJs using rigged fire extinguishers.

Kendrick Lamar put on one of the biggest hip hop moments in recent memory Wednesday night in Inglewood ... and there were a lot of highlights on the heels of the Drake beef.

The concert served as the ultimate victory lap in what many have called a crushing win against Drizzy in their recent rap battle -- and the reason is pretty clear ... KL played "Not Like Us" 5 times in a row, and the instrumental even closed out the show!

Kendrick made sure Juneteenth 2024 will go down in history ... West Coast DJs Hed and Mustard opened the show and offered no shortage of cameos and hype music for the crowd.

Kendrick Lamar's "Pop Out" concert in L.A. looked something like NBA All-Star Weekend ... with LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, DeMar DeRozan and James Harden all attending the massive event -- and two of the superstar ballers even hopped onstage!!

K. Dot set the world on fire during his Juneteenth unity celebration at the Kia Forum on Wednesday ... where he performed his iconic Drake disses for the first time, as well as all the classics from his discography.

Bron, Russ, DeMar and Harden were all present for the epic night of music ... and when the time came for Kendrick to perform "Not Like Us" (several times in a row, mind you), Westbrook and DeRozan were right by his side -- as well as DJ Mustard, who produced the scathing track.

6:22 AM PT -- According to the police report, obtained by TMZ, cops say they came out to a marina near Miami Beach -- where they responded to a fight on one of the boats. Upon arrival, cops say they encountered Travis Scott, who they say was arguing with occupants on one of the yachts there ... and the person who reported him told the officers to get him the hell out of there.

Cops say they started to escort Travis away from the boat -- at which point they claim he was yelling obscenities at the people aboard -- and once they got past the docks and back to the street area ... where Travis had a ride ready to go.

Cops say Travis told them if he got into the car he was "gonna catch a fade" -- and then they say he was driven away ... only to return 5 minutes later, with the cops posted up and seeing him attempt to head back to the boat. They say they intercepted him ... and claim TS became erratic and belligerent, at which point they arrested him. BTW, they say Travis reeked of booze during all this ... hence the disorderly intoxication charge he was booked on.

Justin Timberlake isn't nearly as concerned about his DWI case as some fans are, because he's not following the typical celeb playbook after such an arrest ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Justin has no plans to check into a rehab facility following Tuesday morning's arrest in Sag Harbor, NY. It's not uncommon for Hollywood types to take proactive steps after a drug or alcohol-related arrest to look good before a judge.

Voluntarily seeking treatment in rehab or alcohol education classes can put them in a position for a better plea deal, but Justin has a different plan, and, perhaps ... for good reason.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori had a first-row seat for a runway show in France ... but she's the one screaming for attention, 'cause her naked body was once again on full display.

Ye and his wife just popped up at Paris Fashion Week Wednesday, hitting up the Prototypes Menswear Spring/Summer 2025 show ... and as you can see, Bianca was strutting around in quite the getup -- rockin' a sheer, nude-colored body suit that was pretty damn revealing.

Indeed ... her breasts were visible through the material she was wearing, and she was showing off her legs too, not to mention her booty. As for her hair -- a pink wig, it seems.

Queen's catalog is about to change hands, and it'll be an expensive acquisition -- 'cause Sony's acquiring the rights to the band's music ... spending 10 figures to lock it down.

The massive transaction -- valued at about $1.27 billion -- involves Queens' royalties for recorded music rights in the United States and Canada, plus a distribution deal outside the U.S. and Canada ... according to Variety.

Sony Music is buying the rights that used to belong to Disney, while Queen's distribution deal is currently managed by Universal and is going to expire in a couple years, at which point Sony will take the reins.

Jennifer Lopez looks to be on a family-free trip in Italy this week -- this amid the marriage and career troubles over in the States ... and yes, that means Ben Affleck was MIA.

Check out this photo/video, obtained by TMZ, that shows J Lo at a hotel in Positano Wednesday -- where she had a few pals in tow as they made her way through a row of sun loungers, down a flight of stairs toward the water ... where they eventually got onto a boat.

Jennifer had her summer vacay look all buttoned up here -- rocking a teeny-tiny yellow bandeau top paired with matching printed shorts and shirt. TBH, she's quite glowing here.

Elon Musk doesn't want to end up like John Lennon ... and he's paranoid one of his fans will try to kill him, just like the slain Beatles singer.

The Tesla honcho opened up at a recent shareholder meeting about precautions he's needed to take since his notoriety has skyrocketed in recent years -- more so than even before -- and EM claims that at least two "homicidal maniacs" have already attempted to take his life.

Elon says he's probably on someone's hit list because he's so famous ... and with the world getting "a little crazy these days" he says it's entirely possible someone tries to assassinate him ... a la Lennon.

Justin Timberlake has a prime opportunity to save lives in the wake of his arrest, but only if he's willing to own up to the alleged DWI ... so says Mothers Against Drunk Driving.

Stacey D. Stewart, CEO of MADD, tells TMZ that JT is seriously lucky his night out in Sag Harbor, NY didn't end tragically ... with himself or someone else getting hurt. But, that being said, she's imploring the singer to use his celebrity to condemn impaired driving.

At the moment, it doesn't look like that will happen, not for awhile -- not until the case is settled, and JT's high-powered lawyer is, at least, saying they're ready to fight tooth and nail.

Justin Timberlake had sage advice for one of his concert crowds just two nights before his DWI arrest ... and his words of wisdom could have come in handy for himself in Sag Harbor.

TMZ obtained video from Justin's Saturday tour stop in Miami, where he told a packed house at the Kaseya Center to "be careful out there" -- this after chit-chatting with the audience and asking if there were any singles in the building, playfully noting "the night is young."

Check it out ... JT was in jovial mood this past weekend while performing in the Magic City -- bantering with the crowd and eventually noting he'd have to be asking for forgiveness the next day (Sunday) ... which just so happened to be Father's Day.

Pusha T and No Malice are officially a duo again -- the Clipse rappers are rolling out their first new music since 2009, and they're finally addressing a rumored beef with Justin Timberlake.

Pharrell Williams orchestrated Louis Vuitton's Men's Summer '25 show for Paris Fashion Week, and featured his latest production ... Clipse's new song "Birds Don't Sing" costarring John Legend.

In an interview with Vulture, the Virginia rappers decided to eulogize their recently deceased parents ... Pusha's verse is dedicated to their mother and Malice's bars are for their father.

Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" stands as the game-changer in his lyrical war against Drake -- a chess move the song's producer, Mustard, didn't even see coming!!!

Remember, Kendrick dropped "Not Like Us" out of the blue on the evening of Saturday, May 4 -- on top of his "Meet the Grahams" diss, creating unbeatable momentum.

Mustard scored the West Coast savvy track, but tells Billboard he had no clue-what-so-ever Kendrick was releasing the song -- or even crafted it to be a Drake diss. 😂
