Angela Simmons I'm NOT Saying I'm Not Pregnant
Angela Simmons is definitely knocked up, or she at least wants everyone to keep THINKING she is ... based on what she just told our photog.
We got Rev. Run's daughter at LAX on Friday afternoon and asked her to clear up all the buzz around her belly. The rumors went off the charts in the last 24 hours for 2 reasons. First, she was out in L.A. on Thursday sporting what some people think is a baby bump starter kit.
Secondly, in the video she posted of herself doing the running man challenge ... she kept her back turned to the camera. Again, conspiracy theorists think she's trying to keep her pregnancy under wraps.
What she told us Friday won't calm things down ... which might be the point.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Prince's Sister Hints at Rift with Church His Remains Won't Be at Service
Prince's sister wants to make one thing clear ... she, nor anyone in Prince's family is connected to Sunday's memorial planned by his church -- and the family won't be participating.
Tyka Nelson says, "I nor my brother's remains will be present at any Memorial or Funeral services." Jehovah's Witnesses in Minnetonka, Minnesota -- where Prince worshiped -- announced a private service this weekend.
She went on to say in a Facebook post ... she supports all memorials because the grieving process is unique to everyone who was connected to Prince, but wanted fans to know this weekend's service is NOT the highly anticipated public tribute.
She said that will be coming some time in August, and took what seems like a dig at all other memorials, saying ... "We feel inspired to celebrate his life and legacy in just the right way."

Brian Dunkleman Nuclear Custody Battle Assaults, Alcoholism, Child Stealing Allegations
Brian Dunkleman is in the middle of one of the nastiest custody fights in Hollywood ... with each firing various claims including physical abuse, alcohol addiction and child stealing.
Dunkleman says his wife, Kalea, is an alcoholic who is so out of control she poses a danger to himself and their 3-year-old son, Jackson. He says she has drunkenly punched him in the face and is now involved with a cartel drug dealer she met in rehab.
The former "American Idol" host says he was so fearful he took Jackson to New York last month, went to court and got an order giving him temporary physical custody, pending a hearing.
For her part, Kalea says it's Brian who's the abuser. She says he has picked her up and thrown her against a wall in front of their son and has verbally abused her, calling her a c***, an abomination and a useless bitch. And she says he's so abusive he once locked her out of the house and made her pee outside while he smirked at her.
She admits she's had alcohol problems -- she says drinking was part of her job as a publicist for big chefs like Wolfgang Puck, but she insists she's now on the straight and narrow.
Kalea is asking a judge to order Brian to immediately return Jackson to California.
They've been married since 2007.

George Zimmerman Legit Bid for Trayvon Gun Tops $400k
George Zimmerman is projected to make big bucks from his ongoing gun auction -- we've learned the current legitimate bid is $415,000.
A rep for United Gun Group, the site hosting Zimmerman's controversial auction, tells us the site's been flooded with fake bids -- the highest was $65 million -- but it's using software to sift through the BS offers.
The problem is you don't have to provide credit card info unless you have the winning bid. The auction's set to end Tuesday ... so, it's a safe bet there will be a ton more troll bids until then.

Beyonce Crane Operator's Mom Defends Him After Beyhive Death Threats
Move over Becky, the Beyhive's going after the crane operator at Beyonce's San Diego concert who joked about sabotaging her stage ... and it's already forced him to apologize.
Austin Zamora was setting up lights for Bey's Thursday night show and posted an IG video of the action. When someone commented "Badass... But make it so it collapses on her," -- Zamora stupidly replied, "I wish it would."
Austin works for his family's crane company, and his mom, Kelly, tells us her biz has been inundated with nasty phone calls and even death threats. She says the Beyhive posted their info on social media, but she's pissed because her company had nothing to do with Bey's concert.
Kelly says Austin was an independent subcontractor -- but she is defending her son, pointing out he just said ... "five words he didn't even mean." Austin's since posted an apology to Beyonce, her family and maybe most importantly ... her fans.

Blac Chyna My Creamy Cakes Haul in Major Dough
Blac Chyna had a serious moneymaker on display for her 28th birthday party at a Miami strip club -- and we ain't talking about her ass.
Her 4-tier cake came fresh out of Dollface Delight Cakery in Miami, and we've learned biz is booming at the bakery since the high-profile gig at G5ive. Owners, and sisters, Raquel and Christina Basil tell us they whipped up their creation in 16 hours, but the hard work has paid off -- they've gotten nearly double their usual orders.
Who knew cake lovers hang at strip clubs on the reg?
The sisters say BC's cake would normally cost between $1,100-$1,300, but they only charged $500 since only the giant gold ribbon and the bottom tier were edible. Delicious buttercream cake, btw. Best of all ... BC actually got to have her cake and eat it too, since she's got a little Kardashian on the way. No word if Rob Kardashian took a cheat day.

Death Row Records Big Rappers Screwed Out of Millions in Bankruptcy
-
EXCLUSIVE
- 4 shares
The bankruptcy of Death Row Records is over ... the person handling the case has submitted a final report, and one of the artists left holding the bag is none other than Snoop Dogg, who just got screwed out of $2 million.
According to legal docs, obtained by TMZ, some famous rappers filed claims with the court, asking for millions they say were owed. Almost no one got a dime. Among the losers ...
-- Dr. Dre ... $8 million
-- Nate Dogg ... $5 million
-- Tupac ... $900,000
And this is astounding ... Death Row's founder, Suge Knight, claimed he was owed a staggering $144 MILLION.
The only one that ended up with any money is the estate of Tupac's mom, Afeni, which got around $75k. It might get another $57k.
The only ones who made out like bandits are the lawyers and others who processed the case for Death Row ... they got a grand total of $8.3 mil.
The final report has to be signed by a judge, but that is almost always just a rubber stamp.

Kanye West Kim's Gonna Kill Me ... O.J. Style!
Kanye West got really personal with his latest verse -- comparing his wife to a killer ... her ole Uncle O.J. Simpson.
Kanye's on ScHoolboy Q's new track, "THat Part" and raps about hitting a strip club, and Kim Kardashian getting pissed -- "Wifey gonna kill me, she the female O.J."
Guess 'Ye's got Juice on the mind ... after 'People v. O.J. Simpson.'
We know it's just a song, but it's a little weird since Kim grew up with Simpson for real and called him "uncle" -- y'know, long before he killed 2 people.

Sharon Osbourne Lawyering Up for Divorce
Sharon Osbourne is interviewing divorce lawyers ... TMZ has learned.
Sources connected with Sharon tell us, she's mentally ready to take steps to end her 33 year marriage to Ozzy. Since they have no minor children and California is a no fault state, a divorce would boil down to a property settlement.
We're told Sharon decided late last week she would lawyer up. And, our sources say, the fact she and Ozzy appeared onstage together for Thursday's Ozzfest announcement is not a sign they've reconciled. We're told they have not.
Michelle Pugh, the "other woman" at the center of the Sharon/Ozzy split, resurfaced Thursday at the Bev Hills salon where she works, but said nothing.
