Puma from VH1's "Black Ink Crew" is calling out 2 of his co-stars for allegedly masterminding an attack on his wife that left her battered and bruised.

It all went down at the "Central Intelligence" premiere 2 weeks ago in NYC. Puma and his wife, Quani, were taking pics in the theater lobby when they say a woman pounced ... slugging Quani in the face.

Puma says he didn't recognize the woman, but believes she was sent by Ceaser and Dutchess -- 2 other 'BIC' cast members ... and he's at least half right.

C & D were at the premiere, and admit the woman was their "intern," but they tell us Quani is the one who attacked ... hitting the woman with a folding chair, "like some WWE s***."

We've confirmed the intern filed a police report, but she didn't name any names in it. Puma denies going on the attack, and believes C & D are "bullies" who set up the whole mess.

It could be a first glimpse into Prince's fabled vault of new music, and it premiered at Milan Fashion Week ... courtesy of Donatella Versace.

Donatella cranked the 11-minute mix during Saturday's show of Versace's men's collection. She says Prince, who was a longtime friend, would send her music all the time as a way of communicating.

It's unclear if Prince's estate approved the untitled music being used by Versace -- or if it would even need to do so ... if Prince had gifted it to Donatella.

Check out the music -- you gotta wonder if Prince would be happy it's gone public.

1:45 PM PT -- A rep for Gladys tells TMZ the singer "lent her name to her son's restaurants in the Atlanta area, similar to a celebrity endorsement. Ms. Knight was not involved in any way with the operation of the restaurants and she is sure that her son and his business partners will rectify the situation."

Gladys Knight's Chicken and Waffle restaurants just got shut down by Georgia authorities.

We're told agents with the Georgia Dept of Revenue raided all 3 of Knight's chicken joints Tuesday morning ... clearing out customers and ordering employees to leave.

Agents removed computers, files, and the contents from safes.

Gladys' son -- who runs the business -- is reportedly at the center of the investigation. It appears authorities believe $1 million may have been inappropriately diverted.

We reached out to Gladys ... so far no word back.

Story developing ...

Anton Yelchin died within a minute of being pinned between his Jeep and his security gate ... this according to sources connected with the investigation.

Yelchin, who was found dead early Sunday morning at his San Fernando Valley home, suffered severe injuries to his chest and head ... this according to our sources. We're told the Jeep was crushing against his lungs and investigators believe he died within 1 minute of impact.

We're told the 27-year-old actor had no history of drugs, and no prescriptions or alcohol were found in the vehicle. Investigators determined Yelchin was not known to smoke marijuana.

We're also told there were security cameras trained on the gate and police are looking to see if they captured the accident.

As we reported, the Jeep had been recalled a month earlier because the e-shift created a dangerous situation where drivers put the vehicle in neutral, thinking it was in park.

Tim Tebow, Shaq, Johnny Damon and Kaka helped to lift a few spirits in Orlando this week -- visiting several Pulse shooting victims in the hospital ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Iggy Azalea has gone country ... as in a country song where a scorned woman throws her ex's junk out the second floor window onto the lawn.

Iggy deposited Nick Young's worldly belongings in her driveway Monday ... this after having flatbedded the '62 Impala she gave him as a gift to parts unknown.

She's put him on blast, saying she can't trust him anymore after the whole cheating thing.

Nick needs a new ladder.

Hillary Clinton followed the money trail Monday ... right into Harvey Weinstein's living room.

Harvey threw a fundraising shindig at his NYC home, and celebs swarmed the joint. Jennifer Lopez, Vera Wang, Leo DiCaprio, Martha Stewart, Sarah Jessica Parker, Matthew Broderick and Bethenny Frankel plunked down serious cash for the meet-and-greet.

Selma Blair was the picture of serenity over the weekend ... just a day or so before she ended up being carried off a jet on a stretcher.

TMZ broke the story ... Selma went off the rails on a Delta flight from Cancun to L.A. Monday, screaming incoherently. The pilot radioed ahead that she had mixed alcohol and meds. When the plane landed she was taken to a nearby hospital.

When it comes to the shooting at T.I.'s concert, T.I. is very clear -- he ain't saying crap about it, but he will pray like a mother about it.

We asked Tip about Troy Ave's attempted murder indictment for opening fire last month at the NYC concert. As a convicted felon, he had a lot to say about how Troy can pull through the case.

Check out the clip ... T.I.'s silence on the actual shooting reminds us of the ole saying: Snitches get stitches, while guys who've done time on gun charges get real religious.

Red is not always a warning sign -- sometimes it's a good sign, especially when Joy Corrigan's sporting a red, very skimpy red, one-piece on South Beach.

Kylie Jenner has an admirer so desperate to get at her, he's tried to bust through her security gate multiple times ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us the uninvited man showed up at The Oaks -- the gated community where Kylie, Khloe and Rob Kardashian all live -- and told security guards he was there for a meeting with Kylie.

When guards turned him away ... the man rammed into the gate, cracked it and then sped away.

We're told he returned a couple weeks later and pulled the same routine -- once again cracking the gate and fleeing, but it wasn't a clean getaway.

Security cameras captured his license plate, and cops tracked him down. We're told they interviewed the guy, and he admitted to ramming the gate out of frustration because the guards were "rude."

He's now been charged with 2 misdemeanor charges of vandalism.

UFC champ Miesha Tate says she NEEDS to avenge her losses to Ronda Rousey -- telling TMZ Sports, "I feel like something would be missing from my career if I didn't fight Ronda again."

T.I. and Tiny are defending daughter Zonnique Pullins after her arrest last week for carrying a semi-automatic handgun through a TSA checkpoint.

Sources tell us Zonnique had been trying to catch a last-minute flight out of Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport to see her boyfriend, and she grabbed the wrong purse ... not realizing the gun was inside.

We're told Tiny actually went with Zonnique to buy the .38 caliber pistol after the 20-year-old aspiring singer started getting threats on social media, and a fan grabbed her at a recent listening party.

Our sources say T.I. and Tiny both agreed she needed protection.

Zonnique failed to produce the right docs for TSA agents because Tiny was holding them. Wouldn't have mattered anyway ... it's illegal to have a gun in your carry-on.

Q Parker from 112 came under siege on Father's Day when his expensive ride was snatched during an ATL pit stop.

The singer tells TMZ it all went down Sunday morning on his way home from the airport after a show in Philly. He pulled into a gas station in College Park, Georgia to check a tire that was low on air.

He says, out of nowhere, someone jumped into the driver's seat. Q says he tried to make his way back into the car, but the thief -- who Q says looked 14 -- floored it and took off.

The $90k Audi A8 is still missing, and there are no suspects ... but there's a popular 14-year-old out there.
