T-Boz is gonna be seeing a lot of scrubs ... she's in a hospital after what she thought was food poisoning spiraled into something much worse, forcing TLC to pull the plug on its weekend shows.

The group says T-Boz, AKA Tionne Watkins, is suffering from an abdominal blockage that landed her in the hospital. The medical crisis meant TLC couldn't perform Saturday night at Foxwoods in Connecticut, and ditto for a Friday night gig at the NY State Fair in Syracuse.

After the Friday night cancelation -- which came just 30 minutes before the scheduled start time -- they said she had food poisoning, but 24 hours later they got a different diagnosis.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's love story's heating back up ... 'cause they're side-by-side again after weeks apart -- cuddling up at her beach house.

TMZ has obtained photos from Taylor's Rhode Island home ... capturing the pair appearing just over the edge of her balcony as they soaked in the salty air coming off the Atlantic.

The pics are taken pretty far away ... but, there's Kelce, recongizable mustache and longer hair slinging his arms around Taylor as the two reunited for some much-needed time together after weeks apart.

Kanye West's living it up in South Korea with his family ... taking his daughter North to a toy store for a little shopping R&R.

The doting dad of four hit the kids store with North Saturday ... checking out some of the hottest items South Korea has to offer together while North's little siblings and Ye's better half Bianca Censori were off on their own.

Unclear if this was just a Ye/North outing or if the rest of the group was in a different part of the store when these pics were snapped ... but, either way, it's some quality time for North and her old man.

1:56 PM PT -- Chappell Roan just responded to some of the blowback she's been getting from her recent message -- some telling her to "chill."

CR says that ain't happenin' ... the situation is serious and so was her message to back off!

That said ... Chappell says she loves her fans ... and always wants her shows to feel like a safe community.

Chappell Roan says just because you're a fan who loves her, it doesn't mean she owes you anything when she's not performing -- so she's issuing a new warning to those who creep her out.

The “Good Luck, Babe!” singer made headlines this week with a video rant against fan admiration that crosses the line -- and Friday night she added to her manifesto with more specifics about the kinda behavior that has her on edge.

Chappell wrote on IG, “I’ve been in too many nonconsensual physical and social interactions and I just need to lay it out and remind you, women don’t owe you shit. I chose this career path because I love music and art and honoring my inner child, I do not accept harassment of any kind because I chose this path, nor do I deserve it.”

Sid Wilson is recovering from severe injuries he got after messing with a burn pile ... and his partner Kelly Osbourne is pissed he put himself in harm's way!

As we previously reported ... the Slipknot DJ was badly burned on his face and arms ... and he shared some gnarly videos from his hospital trip while nurses and doctors were tending to his injuries.

Well, Kelly and the couple's toddler were also in the ER ... and KO did her own IG recording ... blasting her hubby for being so careless.

Katy Perry's putting it all out there -- just about -- to celebrate her new album dropping ... which is why she popped out in West Hollywood rocking a revealing snakeskin print for a very crowd-pleasing performance.

Katy's bod was on display as much as her voice Friday night at Beaches Tropicana nightclub where she and the crowd raised glasses in anticipation of her album, "143" -- and while the first single, "Women's World" isn't lighting the world on fire, she brushed that off onstage.

Flaunting her rock-hard abs in a micro miniskirt, she busted out her old reliable hits -- songs like "Teenage Dream," "I Kissed a Girl" and "California Gurls" -- to get the crowd pumped.

Kamala Harris is fully embracing the "Brat" tag Gen Z supporters, and Charli XCX, have put on her -- but Bill Maher just doesn't see it, and says the singer's actually describing Donald Trump to a T.

Bill dug into the Brat phenomenon on Friday's episode of 'Real Time' with his guest CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins -- fully unpacking the label for any boomers or Gen Xers who still don't get it. He read out Charli's definition ... “Just that girl who is a little messy and likes to party and maybe says some dumb things sometimes."

Maher argued all of that sounds way more like Trump, and, more to the point, he added ... "I don't want my president to be this!"

Eminem is bringing his daughter to tears with a couple of very personal songs he just dropped, and Hailie Jade Scott says the music videos are too much to watch -- but also very eye-opening about her childhood.

Hailie opened up about the tracks -- "Somebody Save Me" and "Temporary" -- on her podcast, "Just a Little Shady" ... saying she watched the 'Save Me' music vid once, but that'll be the last time.

She says, "I definitely cry every time I hear it at all. Between that and ‘Temporary’ … I audibly sobbed I think for both songs but especially ‘Temporary.’”

Donald Trump's habit of using famous artists' music at his rallies is about to backfire on him -- that's what the Foo Fighters are saying after he cranked one of their biggest hits ... without permission.

Trump brought out Robert F. Kennedy Jr. -- who ended his campaign and endorsed Trump -- Friday evening in Glendale, AZ while blaring FF's 1997 hit "My Hero," and while the pyrotechnics and music fired up the crowd ... it simply pissed off Dave Grohl and company.

Once the Foo caught wind of the wild scene in AZ, the band sent Trump a clear message: Don't do that!

Bob Dylan fans searching for the ultimate memorabilia just might find the answer blowing in the wind ... or on a collector's site that's hawking some of his handwritten lyrics.

BD scribbled out the words to his iconic 1962 tune, "Blowin' in the Wind" -- previously ranked by Rolling Stone as one of the greatest songs of all time -- in a hotel room back in 2011 for a collector. He even signed the paper for authentication purposes.

Now, the lyrics penned by the man himself are selling for $85,000 on the collector's site, Momentsintime.com.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori are overseas, Lily Allen is returning a dog and Simone Biles is celebrating her Olympics success with a new car ... all this on today's TMZ TV Hot Takes.

First up on "TMZ Live," Charles and Babcock explain why Ye and his wife are with his kids over in South Korea.

Hailey and Justin Bieber gotta be singing that song, because they're brand new parents -- she gave birth to their first child, and the kid's gonna have music on his mind!

The happy couple announced the arrival of their baby boy Friday evening ... showing off one of the little guy's feet. Justin's post simply said "WELCOME HOME."

Well, they also revealed his name ... Jack Blues Bieber. Sure, Justin's a pop singer, but maybe he's got different plans for his firstborn son.

It's unclear when exactly Jack was actually born ... for now, they're not saying -- but based on the post, it seems he's gone home with Mom and Dad.

Back in May, the A-list couple announced they were expecting their first child together with Hailey displaying a noticeable bump in footage from their vow renewal. The couple's rep later confirmed to TMZ ... HB was about 6 months along at the time.

5:45 PM PT -- Kreshendo's singing a way different tune than Shaboozey when it comes to their deal, and it's now suing him ... accusing him of fraud.

In the docs, the record label admits it agreed to let the singer out of his deal in 2019 -- however, it says there were strings attached. Kreshendo claims his exit deal still allowed them to collect money on all his musical compositions, and they allege he knew damn well that was the arrangement.

They say Shaboozey is only acting like he didn't know, because "Bar Song" became such a massive hit, and he doesn't want to share the wealth with his old label. So, now Kreshendo is suing him for more than $2 million.

Slipknot DJ Sid Wilson got sent to the hospital after something blew up in his face ... and his face and arms are covered in what he says are serious burns.

Kelly Osbourne's man just shared some videos from his hospital trip, and he's literally being attended to by medical personnel as he whips out his phone and starts recording.

Sid says he was badly burned in an explosion ... and the blast singed his eyebrows, blistered his lips and burned the crap out of his arms and wrists.

John Legend's tribute to Prince at the Democratic National Convention was good, but it pales in comparison to the song itself ... so says the late Purple Rain singer's ex-manager.

We spoke with L. Londell McMillan -- who previously worked as both manager and attorney to the ethereal star -- about JL's performance at the DNC this week ... a show which pissed a lot of people off.

ICYMI ... fans called out Legend, 'cause he sounds a lot like himself while singing, and not enough like Prince, while performing with longtime Prince collaborator Sheila E. -- and, many people felt he wasn't the right person to sing "Let's Go Crazy."

DaniLeigh apparently thought being famous could get her out of trouble -- at least, that’s what it looks like in newly released bodycam footage from her DUI hit-and-run arrest back in May 2023.

The video is a shocker -- you can hear DaniLeigh try to tell Miami cops they can't arrest her 'cause she's an artist, in particular an R&B singer -- all this after authorities say she struck a teen on a moped with her car ... and left him with a kidney laceration and a spinal fracture.

She tells one officer she's with Quavo, who is seen off to the side early in the video, along with a couple of his security guys. The cop tells them to back up when they ask what's going on.
