T.I. & Tiny Divorce Dead in the Water ... For Now

Published | Updated

T.I. and Tiny are creeping closer to reconciliation -- or at least NO divorce status -- because she forgot to do one very important thing when divorcing someone.

A hearing in the divorce was scheduled Wednesday morning in Georgia, but TMZ has learned the matter was taken off calendar when the court discovered T.I. had never been served with divorce papers. Remember ... Tiny filed way back on Dec. 7.

It's not like she had trouble locating T.I. -- we know they've been together several times in recent months -- including the holiday season. He even admitted they did Valentine's Day together.

At this point, if Tiny wants to move forward, she'll have to file proof T.I. was served.

The lack of progress in court confirms what we've heard from sources close to the couple -- they're just nowhere near getting divorced.

COME LEARN SOMETHING

Rappers Killer Mike and El-P aren't stopping with Obama when it comes to handing out free tickets to their show ... they're extending an invite to President Trump too.

We got the Run The Jewels rappers leaving "The Daily Show" in NYC Tuesday night where they told us they'd be down for Trump to take in a show.

Kellyanne Conway might make it on the list too. When we asked Mike and El-P about her infamous couchgate photo, they seemed more interested with what was going on in the background.

Fired ESPN Tennis Analyst Suffers Heart Attack Blames Stress from 'Guerilla' Incident

Published | Updated

The ESPN tennis announcer who was fired after using the word "guerilla" during a Venus Williams match has suffered a heart attack ... and claims it was brought on by the stress surrounding the incident.

Doug Adler spoke with Clay Travis from "Outkick The Coverage" and said he was rushed to a hospital Tuesday and is still there today.

Adler says his doctors are largely blaming the heart attack on stress -- and Adler says it's because he was branded a racist by people who incorrectly believe he was referring to Williams as a "gorilla" during the Australian Open.

Travis mentions that Adler had previous heart conditions.

As we previously reported, Adler is suing ESPN for wrongful termination. He previously told TMZ Sports he's "anything but a racist."

UPDATE -- A rep for Adler says Doug did NOT have any previous heart conditions.

The rep adds, "In fact, in Fall 2015 he had a heart test performed and his heart was fine."

I GUESS I CAN?

Oprah Winfrey is having second thoughts about running for President of these United States ... and you have President Trump to thank for that.

Check out what Oprah said on Bloomberg's "The David Rubenstein Show" -- turns out Trump's first 5 weeks in office have been very inspiring to her. If she's not serious, she's playing with the emotions of her millions of fans.

At the very least, she's taking a clear jab at Trump.

T.I. & Tiny We're Still Doing Reality Show! Big 'D' Drama Too Good

Published | Updated

T.I. and Tiny's reality show was on the brink of death -- much like their marriage -- but it's their divorce that's giving the show at least one more season ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to "T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle" tell us VH1 is bringing the series back for a sixth season that will focus on the estranged couple's efforts to co-parent in the aftermath of Tiny filing for divorce.

We're told the network met with producers about canceling the show, even though Tip and Tiny wanted to keep cameras rolling. Producers convinced VH1 execs the relationship drama could bring in a huge audience, and boom -- the show was saved.

While they shot most of season 5 separately, our sources say they'll be together more often next season. We're told things are still strained for sure, but Tiny's in no rush to finalize a divorce.

Tip said as much Tuesday when he slipped about where he was on Feb. 14.

DNC Chair Tom Perez I'm Not Reaching Across ... Until Trump Makes First Move

Published | Updated

It appears Trump's speech Tuesday night didn't do much for Perez ... an aide for the DNC Chair tells us, "Tom does not believe the president made any progress toward uniting the country or delivering results for the American people."

President Trump better change his tone a lot, if he wants DNC Chair Tom Perez to work with him ... at least that's what Perez told us shortly before Trump's address to Congress.

We got Perez Tuesday afternoon on the Hill, and asked if he's going to reach across the aisle and attempt to work with the president. His response was very clear ... he needs to see something different from POTUS.

Question is ... did he see it just a few hours later?

The Game I Got Roses for Nicki ... Out of Love or Her Rap Grave?

DON'T MESS WITH NICKI

The Game better not catch anyone speaking ill of Nicki Minaj -- he jumped to her defense, but he might also be acknowledging she got crushed by Remy Ma.

We got Game Tuesday night leaving 1 OAK on the Sunset Strip, and he came out so strong in support of Nicki ... our camera guy might have wet himself. But when we brought up Remy's devastating diss track ... Game's tone changed. We think.

Hard to tell, but he might have just handed over flowers for Nicki's metaphoric tombstone. Or he's just trying to get some. Both would be appropriate.

Katy Perry & Orlando Bloom Respectfully & Lovingly No Longer Banging

Published | Updated

Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry are officially on a break from each other ... but a very tender one.

The couple were together Sunday night at the Vanity Fair Oscars party, but Tuesday night their reps said, “Before rumors or falsifications get out of hand, we can confirm that Orlando and Katy are taking respectful, loving space at this time.”

The statement to US Weekly was reminiscent of Chris and Gwyneth's "conscious uncoupling," but bottom line is ... you're probably gonna see them out with other people very soon. In fact the "rumors" line might have been a reference to shots of Orlando chatting up a woman last week at a pre-Oscars event. To be fair, looks like friendly conversation.

Katy and Orlando were together just over a year.

John -- who was a regular on Chelsea Handler's show -- was performing stand-up at The Comedy & Magic Club in Hermosa Beach, CA. He made a phallic joke about the Washington Monument, and when he dragged the prez into it ... 2 women in the crowd went off.

One of them hurled f-bombs, the other upped the ante by launching her glass at him. You can tell, John was shocked and slightly injured -- he came really close to retaliating.

We're told the women left the club without any further incident.

Keegan-Michael Key's Ex This Divorce Is Giving Me PTSD ... Thank God for Meds!

Published | Updated

Keegan-Michael Key's estranged wife says his ending of their 17-year marriage was so unexpected, it's causing her serious health problems ... in addition to leaving her in financial ruin.

Cynthia Blaise says she's suffering from severe depression, anxiety, hair and weight loss and PTSD ... according to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ. She says she's been taking 5 different meds since the 2015 divorce filing.

Blaise says she financially supported him early in their marriage with her work as a Hollywood dialect coach -- and even when his career took off, she was at his beck and call.

She says Key made way more than her in the final years of their marriage -- including a $1.2 mil Toyota endorsement deal -- but she's fallen on financial hardship since the split ... due to giving up her career.

We've reached to Michael's rep, no word back. Blaise wants spousal support, a fair split of assets and attorney fees.

Univision Lawsuit Brought to You By the Letter 'S' ... As in, You Stole My Song!!

Published | Updated

Univision used Elmo, Cookie Monster and his pals to pull off a musical heist -- so claims a famous Puerto Rican singer who's suing the network.

Joel Bosh is best known as Taino -- who had the 90s hit, 'Yo Soy Boricua' -- and says Univision jacked that song to promote "Sesame Amigos" ... the Spanish version of "Sesame Street." He says the commercial ran in Puerto Rico.

In docs obtained by TMZ, Taino says he's very picky about letting anyone use his musical calling card. He gave boxer Felix "Tito" Trinidad and the Puerto Rican Day Parade in NYC the green light. Same for a Church's Chicken commercial, but that's about it.

To be clear, 'Sesame' producers are not named in the suit -- Taino just wants Univision to pay up.
