Ludacris My Ex Framed Me By Photoshopping Daughter's 'Injuries'

Published | Updated

Ludacris is beyond pissed at his baby mama, Tamika Fuller ... accusing her of altering photos of their daughter to make him look like an unfit father.

According to legal docs obtained by TMZ ... Tamika claims she picked up their 2-year-old daughter from daycare in May after she was in Luda's care -- he has primary custody -- and noticed "bruises and abrasions" on her face.

Tamika says she took their daughter to a hospital for emergency care, and a social worker there recommended DFCS get involved. In docs, she says DFCS wanted to keep Luda away from the girl.

Ludacris filed his own docs though, saying Tamika made up the whole story ... and even digitally edited photos of the alleged injuries and submitted them to the court. He adds, DFCS records will back that up.

Tamika says the whole case has been squashed -- their daughter is back in Luda's care -- but she insists he used his wealth and fame to intimidate DFCS investigators.

Haylie Duff My L.A. Home Is Cookin' Up A Profit

Published | Updated

Hilary Duff's older sister, Haylie, is about to pocket $865k ... if she gets the asking price.

It's pretty incredible ... Haylie, who's an aspiring TV chef, bought the 3 bedroom, 3 bath Studio City pad only 18 months ago. She paid $1.33 million back then, but is now selling it for $2.195 mil.

The 3,150 sq foot home appears to have been updated. There's a sleek pool, plenty of outdoor space and a kitchen with 2 islands, which Haylie's gotta hate to see go.

Sway Black Voters Need to Call Out Candidates ... I'm with Diddy!

Published | Updated

Diddy nailed it when he challenged the black community to demand more from Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump ... and Sway seconds that motion.

The BET, VH1 and SiriusXM host (in your face, Seacrest) joined us on "TMZ Live" to break down Diddy's call for a sort of boycott. There's some debate about whether Puff meant don't vote at all ... or just hold the candidates' feet to the fire before you do vote.

We got into it with Sway, who added -- regardless of race -- it's hard to believe ANY politician.

Ryan Lochte Protesters We Did It For America ... But 'DWTS' Guards Did Some Damage

Published | Updated

The protesters who rushed Ryan Lochte on "Dancing with the Stars" wanted to get revenge for the swimmer embarrassing Americans at the Olympics ... and they say they'd do it again.

59-year-old Sam Sotoodeh and 25-year-old Barzeen Soroudi -- who are related -- explained their antics when they got out of jail Tuesday ... still sporting their "No Lochte" shirts. Barzeen says he was in Rio for the games, and Lochtegate made him a target while he was down there.

Even though he put himself in the line of fire with the protest ... Sotoodeh has a major issue with the way security guards took him down on the dance floor. Watch, everything about his reaction reeks of lawsuit.

Ricky Schroder Wife Files for Divorce

Published | Updated

Ricky Schroder and his wife of more than 2 decades are calling it quits ... TMZ has learned.

Andrea Schroder filed divorce docs in L.A., citing irreconcilable differences. The couple got married in 1992, and the breakup comes just a couple weeks shy of their 24th anniversary.

They have 4 children -- 2 boys and 2 girls -- but only their daughter, Faith, is a minor. Andrea wants sole legal and physical custody ... with visitation for Ricky.

The "Silver Spoons" and "NYPD Blue" star made headlines for his decision to yank Faith from her middle school in Malibu a few years ago. He was concerned something in the school was causing a cancer outbreak after 3 teachers were diagnosed and several more complained of ailments.

Andrea's also demanding spousal support.

Ricky has said he became a more devout Mormon due to Andrea's involvement with the Church.

A couple months ago, she posted a pic of herself, apparently in Paris, and talked about her "new, less predictable future."

Kid Cali Arrest in Rapper's Murder

Published | Updated

Cops finally nabbed a suspect for the murder of up-and-coming rapper Kid Cali ... TMZ has learned.

LAPD arrested a 19-year-old guy Saturday for the shooting death of Cali -- who was well-known on the L.A. rap scene. He was killed during a huge pool party last month in the San Fernando Valley.

Law enforcement sources tell us the fatal shots were fired during a fight between 2 rival gangs at the party. Two other people were shot, but survived. It's unclear if Cali was targeted or merely an innocent bystander.

The party was being held at a mansion with tons of security cameras ... which, no doubt, helped cops ID the suspect.

Axl Rose Sued No More Patience! You Still Owe Me $160k

Published | Updated

Axl Rose and Guns N' Roses are raking in the dough these days, but Axl's way behind on paying the loyal engineer who stuck with the band in the lean years ... according to a lawsuit the guy just filed.

Axl cried poverty back in 2011 -- long before this year's hugely successful reunion tour -- and promised to pay Chris Pitman for services rendered ... down the road when he was more flush ... according to the docs.

Pitman says Axl wrote him a promissory note for the $125,000 he was owed for more than a year's worth of work. In the suit, he says that amount was supposed to be paid by Oct. 2012 -- but Axl never bucked up, and he's been radio silent ever since.

It's interesting, GNR has reportedly grossed more than $100 million already off its reunion -- so, you gotta figure Pitman ain't gonna buy the poor Axl routine now.

He says Axl now owes him more than $163k, due to interest.

Desiigner Arrest Driver Served Time for Illegal Steroids

Published | Updated

It's becoming clearer than ever who owned the steroids found in the SUV in which Desiigner was riding ... because TMZ has found a criminal trail leading right to the driver.

Scott Siegel was driving the SUV when another driver called 911, claiming someone in the vehicle had pointed a gun at him. Although no gun was found, cops retrieved 302 pills from the SUV's console ... all of which turned out to be steroids.

Although Desiigner and everyone else in the SUV have been charged with illegal possession of drugs, we've learned steroids have been Siegel's thing for years. In fact, he was convicted in 2010 of distribution and possession of anabolic steroids and served 3 years in federal prison.

On top of that, Siegel appears in the movie "The Wrestler" in which he sells steroids to Mickey Rourke's character.

Although all the evidence points to Siegel as the person in possession of the steroids, the D.A. is not backing off the drug charge against Desiigner, who was in the backseat and claims he had no idea drugs were in the vehicle.

Law enforcement tells us it's common in New York for cops to arrest everyone in a vehicle in which drugs are found, and down the line the D.A. drops charges against the people to whom the evidence doesn't stick.

Seems it's just a matter of time before Desiigner is cleared.

Kendall & Kylie Jenner $27 Mil Pad Ain't Bad For Fashion Week

Published | Updated

Kendall and Kylie Jenner have been living modestly in NYC while in town for Fashion Week and Kanye's concert. JK ... they're staying in a baller penthouse with occasional elevator issues.

You might recall the sisters getting stuck in an elevator last week -- well, this is the place where it happened. They'll get over it. Coming home to 7,200 sq ft, 9 bedrooms, and 9 baths in Manhattan will do that.

Kendall and Kylie's digs also include almost 1,700 sq feet of private outdoor space with incredible views, too. It's worth about $26.5 mil.

Broker to the stars Andrew Azoulay, from Douglas Elliman, hooked them up with the heavenly crib for the past couple weeks.

Bill Clinton Hillary's Fainted 'Frequently' ... CBS Edits Remark

Published | Updated

1:50 PM PT -- CBS tells us the Evening News clip was "edited purely for time while on deadline for the live broadcast."

Hillary Clinton has "frequently" fainted due to dehydration, according to Bill Clinton ... but for some reason CBS removed that comment from its initial airing of the interview.

Charlie Rose sat down with the ex-Prez to discuss the candidate's health, and Bill tackled the question head-on. CBS released quotes from the interview where Bill said, “... because frequently -- well not frequently, rarely -- but on more than one occasion, over the last many, many years, the same sort of thing happened to her when she got severely dehydrated.”

The "frequently" part was edited out of Monday's evening news. What's interesting is ... it was left in when a longer version aired Tuesday on "CBS This Morning."

It's only 3 seconds ... so, seems odd it would have been removed for time purposes.

Lil Wayne I'm Retiring Because of Birdman ... But Things Can Change

Published | Updated

Lil Wayne says he IS retired from music ... at least, for now ... and it's all over his war with Birdman.

The rapper just appeared on "Undisputed" on FS1 -- where Skip Bayless got straight to the point and asked if his tweets about retiring from music earlier this month were real.

The explanation ... Weezy says when he posted the tweet, he was PISSED OFF following a heated argument over his business relationship with Cash Money Records.

Wayne claims Birdman owes him millions -- and it's having a real impact on his personal life.

"I have a family. I have kids. I have a mother. We have bills. This is just business."

Wayne says he will NEVER work with Birdman ever again -- and for all intents and purposes, considers himself retired ... at least, until he gets paid.

He did send this message to his former boss -- "Gimme mine and I'll walk free."

It's clear Wayne WANTS to make music again -- because he told Skip he hasn't even come close to reaching the height of his career.
