Tinashe is in virgin territory -- her new song "Nasty" is her first Billboard Hot 100 hit, and she's celebrating the accomplishment ... especially because she made it off her independent grind!!!

TMZ Hip Hop spoke with Tinashe Wednesday in between "Nasty" rehearsals at "Jimmy Kimmel Live," and the R&B singer was popping her ish.

Tinashe's been vocal in interviews about her uphill battle, career-wise, since leaving behind RCA's major label machine a couple years ago -- but she tells us it was her fans and hard work that got her on the charts as a solo act.

A popular couple in the NFL is dunzo -- TikToker Tianna Robillard and her Bengals lineman fiancé Cody Ford have called off their relationship after getting engaged just this past April.

Fans started to speculate something was amiss after both Ford and Robillard deleted each other off their respective Instagram accounts this week.

The speculation only grew after the influencer posted a TikTok featuring Sabrina Carpenter's new song, "Please Please Please" -- which contains the lyrics "Heartbreak is one thing, my ego's another I beg you, don't embarrass me, motherf*****."

A Nashville DoorDash driver was caught on doorbell footage hurling a racist slur at a Black customer -- a despicable act that led to his firing.

In a shocking TikTok clip posted Tuesday by customer Christina Derrica, the delivery man drops her order on her front porch and says, "Here's your food, n****r."

He still did his job, though, snapping a photo of the food for proof of delivery, but then felt compelled to drop yet another n-bomb -- as he walked away he muttered, "Chow down, n****r."

11:10 AM PT -- TMZ Sports just spoke with Scott Hanson ... and he told us the horrifying crash all happened on Sunday at around 9:30 PM.

He reiterated that despite the chaotic scene, somehow, no one was injured.

As for the TikToker who was seemingly trying to make a buck off it all ... Hanson said the guy was a complete jerk -- who only left the scene after he heard sirens heading toward the area.

A white woman on TikTok who dropped the n-word just lost her day job -- and a lot of people are saying she deserves it after refusing to apologize.

Lilly Gaddis recently shared a video of herself cooking, in which she said, "Everyone I know that is married right now is married to broke-ass n*****." She also made derogatory remarks about "dumb whores" and "immigrants fresh off the boat looking for a green card."

The context is that she was pushing back on the notion that women are gold diggers -- and she was offering examples of why that isn't the case ... which included the racial slur. No surprise ... the clip drew intense backlash, prompting Lilly to post a follow-up clip.

Miranda Derrick says the new Netflix doc that makes it look like she's in a cult is causing her a bunch of problems -- namely, death threats ... and she is laying some of the blame at her family's feet.

The TikTok star hopped on social media Monday and posted a video, claiming folks are sending her all sorts of nasty comments ... including threats of physical violence. She says things are to the point where she doesn't feel safe.

'Dancing For The Devil' is the popular new Netflix doc taking a look at Miranda, characterizing her and others involved with 7M Films as brainwashed sheep beholden to an alleged cult leader, Dr. Robert Shinn.

The alleged villain covered in Netflix's 'Dancing for the Devil' was the subject of two previous criminal investigations, but neither resulted in any charges ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us two sexual battery cases were filed against Robert Shinn and reported to LAPD in August 2023 -- which tracks with what was covered in the doc ... with some of his accusers coming forward and noting they'd gone to cops.

We're told one of the cases was filed by former 7M member Kylie Douglas, whose story was featured in the doc. Our sources say the LAPD conducted an investigation, and the case eventually landed at the L.A. City Attorney’s Office.

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.

Former NXIVM sex cult member India Oxenberg says folks need to cut TikTok star Miranda Derrick some slack ... 'cause she may well be in a cult and not even realize she's been brainwashed.

India, who broke free from NXIVM after 7 years under the cult's spell, tells TMZ ... she's known about Miranda's alleged cult, 7M Films, for years and thinks it's likely Miranda doesn't fully understand the influence the group is exerting over her life.

Miranda denies 7M is a cult, and says she's not some mindless zombie under founder Robert Shinn's control -- pushing back against a narrative seen in the new "Dancing for the Devil" Netflix doc -- but India says groups like 7M and NXIVM have perfected the art of controlling communication with those on the outside.

Former "Supermarket Sweep" host David Ruprecht is weighing in on the viral shopping cart debate ... which was sparked after one mom declared she always leaves her cart in the middle of the parking lot.

David tells TMZ ... he is well aware of the ongoing debate, noting he finds it hilarious -- albeit a little silly. Still, he finds himself relating with the original poster, Dr. Leslie Dobson, who said she doesn't bring her carts back to the store or the corral over concern for her kids' safety.

David admits he's guilty of abandoning a cart in the middle of a parking lot on occasion ... especially if the cart roundup is too far away. Plenty of social media users have expressed similar sentiments... with several people admitting they do the exact same thing.

The guy behind the viral 'Crazy' trend on TikTok is reaping a ton of benefits after setting the internet on fire with the latest frenzy -- and he's already got a gig out of it ... with the WNBA.

We talked to Stephen Glickman -- who's already famous from the "Big Time Rush" show -- on "The TMZ Podcast," where he discussed his now-viral TikTok sound ... in which he does a slow, dramatic rendition of Gnarls Barkley's 2006 hit, "Crazy." Tons of stars have hopped on the trend -- lip-syncing to his track and sharing something cringe-worthy from their past.

There's nothing cringey about Stephen's success, however ... 'cause he says he's set to perform a WNBA halftime show soon. SG tells us he and his band are gonna fly out to Las Vegas ... where he will perform for the sold-out crowd at the Aces vs. Minnesota Lynx game.

Lady Gaga does not have a bun in the oven -- even though a lot of people thought she did based on some pics of her that went around this week ... over which she's clearing the air.

The singer hopped on TikTok Tuesday to address all the speculation, which kicked into high gear after some paparazzi photos of her at her sister's wedding over the weekend were shopped to media outlets ... where she appeared to have some extra belly action going on.

Obviously, something like that is a little sensitive -- but some felt she definitely looked pregnant ... but now, Gaga herself is coming out to deny that, saying it just ain't true.

A new Netflix doc has made people believe that TikTok star Miranda Derrick is in a cult -- but she's calling BS ... and putting out a totally different narrative, suggesting she's just fine.

Miranda hopped online Tuesday to clap back at claims made in 'Dancing for the Devil' -- which characterizes her and others involved with 7M Films as brainwashed sheep that are beholden to an alleged cult leader ... but Miranda says that's simply not the case.

In a short clip on her IG Story Tuesday, Miranda first thanked everyone for their support since the 3-part doc dropped last week ... and then teased a lengthy written statement in the following slides, saying she couldn't spill all the tea due to legal reasons.

Kendrick Lamar may not want Drake to sell him any accents but Toronto-based social media personality Snow4y is happily taking it to the bank for his music debut!!!

Drake recently surfaced singing in Jamaica patois on a track titled "Wah Gwan Delilah" … and to the outside world, not in on the joke, it appeared Drake was floundering in the aftermath of his battle with Kendrick.

Drake packs on the slang heavy and paints a short story of himself hanging out at his fav L.A. spot, Delilah, before his homie ruins all the fun in a ski mask ... real silly stuff.

Rick Ross' Car & Bike Show didn't go as well as planned, it seems ... 'cause a ton of people online are blasting the event's organization -- and demanding refunds.

The rapper's annual car and bike show took place yesterday in Fayetteville, Georgia, and -- from pics Rick posted -- it seems like the event went off without a hitch. Lots of smiling, hugging and laughing with one of the biggest names in hip hop.

But, fans on social media are telling a totally different story ... claiming the car show totally ran them over!

Gypsy Rose Blanchard's been enjoying newfound fame since her prison release -- and yet, she's denouncing her celebrity status ... saying she's a survivor first.

GRB posted a PSA of sorts on TikTok Monday -- reminding everyone she's still on her healing journey as a Munchausen by proxy victim ... and while it's unclear what exactly triggered her, she definitely got a lot off her chest on this topic.

She wrote a lengthy caption, which reads in part ... "Don't ask me to relive my trauma for your personal curiosity, don't demand to know the answers to questions that have no relevance in your life, don't expect me to have overcome my past on your time."
