Prince William just got mad props from Luniz for giggin' to their classic Bay Area track.

We got rappers Yukmouth and Numskull out in the Bay Tuesday, where they gave us their take on Wills bustin' out some '90s moves to "I Got 5 on It."

As Yuk puts it, Your Highness looked like he was doing the halfway Humpty -- and no, he definitely wasn't smoking to the unofficial weed anthem.

Either way, Luniz seems impressed.

Ex-'Bachelor' Ben Higgins is crossing his fingers ... hoping the new 'Bachelorette' does not get racial.

Ben's reacting to one of Rachel Lindsay's suitors, who blurted out this week, I'm ready to go black, and I'm never going to go back."

We got Ben leaving Barton G. in L.A. where he as much as said it was a bonehead statement.

Ben believes you can find love on the show and apparently, he did. He and his final rose from season 20, Lauren B., are still going strong.

Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds are about to get a belated but pretty awesome public send-off.

The public memorial will be held March 25 at Forest Lawn, where the mother/daughter are buried. The ceremony will be held in a 1,200 seat theater at the cemetery.

One of the highlights will be the unveiling of a tribute song from James Blunt. James and Carrie were tight ... she was the godmother to his child. Blunt won't be performing, but Fisher's brother, Todd, tells us the track will debut over a photo montage.

Also on the program ... the Gay Men’s Chorus of Los Angeles, a dance tribute from the Debbie Reynolds dance school, and tons of costumes and memorabilia will be on display.

Fisher's daughter, Billie, will be present but won't make any speeches. She says it's just too emotional to address a crowd.

Carrie's beloved dog, Gary, will be front and center.

The event will be streamed live on Carrie and Debbie's website.

Akon's Tesla went out for a joyride ... with a burglar, but the heist was cut short by technology.

Sources close to Akon tell TMZ ... a burglar entered the garage Saturday night at his Woodland Hills, CA home, and bolted with his Model S. It wasn't tough to lift the luxury ride -- we're told the garage door was accidentally left open.

The would-be burglar was foiled though when he parked and the ride's security system shut it down. The suspect took off, and the Tesla was located a few hours later thanks to its tracking device.

Akon got off better than a string of other celebs hit in a recent burglary spree. Alanis Morissette, Nick Young, Cesar Millan and others have been hit for up to 6 figures.

The singer's in Dubai right now, but we're told Akon's family members filed a police report and it's under investigation.

Donald Trump is finally coughing up his tax returns, at least in part ... and says he paid $38 million in 2005.

The president released the financial info under pressure from MSNBC's Rachel Maddow ... who promised to broadcast the 2005 data on her show Tuesday evening. Half an hour before she went on air the White House revealed Trump paid the $38 mil on $150 million income.

Trump's release comes grudgingly. The White House added, "Despite this substantial income figure and tax paid, it is totally illegal to steal and publish tax returns."

There was also a direct shot at Maddow -- "You know you are desperate for ratings when you are willing to violate the law to push a story about two pages of tax returns from over a decade ago."

Fact is, Maddow's ratings have been pretty damn good since Trump's election.

Internet cooking sensation Auntie Fee, also known as Chef Sista Girl, is fighting for her life after a massive heart attack.

We were first told by Fee's nephew Sosten Price and sister Ayesha that the 59-year-old died Tuesday after the medical emergency. However, we've now learned she's on life support surrounded by family at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center after being rushed by ambulance.

Auntie Fee, whose full name is Felicia O'Dell, went viral in 2014 after posting her recipes for "good ass chicken" and "sweet treats for the kids." She went on to appear in the movie "Barbershop 3." She also came to TMZ to hook us up with her recipes.

Story developing ...

Tarek and Christina El Moussa are trying to pull a Gwyneth Paltrow-Chris Martin kinda split, and they got a life coach to get the ball rolling.

Sources close to the divorcing "Flip or Flop" stars tell us they had dinner Monday with Tim Storey in Orange County to talk about their split. We're told the sit-down was Tarek's idea, because Tim's been helping him cope with the divorce.

Tarek wanted to bring Christina in to the mix to discuss their co-parenting and friendship, and they didn't record the meeting for the show. We're told the goal is NOT to get back together ... like, at all.

Storey's resume is impressive ... having worked with Robert Downey Jr., Kanye West, and Charlie Sheen. He even had a guest spot with Oprah.

Ben Affleck announced he's just completed a stint in rehab.

Sources tell us he was at a facility almost immediately after the Oscars 2 weeks ago.

Ben says he took it upon himself to get help because he had renewed problems with alcohol abuse. A source familiar with the situation says the problem has been going on "a long time."

It's not Ben's first time in rehab. He went to Promises in Malibu back in 2001 for alcohol abuse.

There have been reports he was reconciling with Jennifer Garner and she was dropping the divorce, but our sources say that is not true.

Ben says, "I'm lucky to have the love of my family and friends, including my co-parent, Jen, who has supported me and cared for our kids as I've done the work I've set out to do."

Dale Earnhardt Jr. just made Mark Zuckerberg drop an S-bomb ... taking the Facebook creator on his first ride on a NASCAR track ... and it blew the billionaire's mind.

Zuck hooked up with Dale Jr. at Charlotte Motor Speedway on Facebook Live -- and got his first taste of 160 mph speed!!!

In the end, Zuckerberg called the ride an "amazing experience" ... and even got in the driver's seat for a few laps of his own.

Chrissy Metz was her own opening act when she gave 2 die-hard "This Is Us" fans a surprise thrill in the middle of Bed Bath & Beyond.

The awesomely fun run-in went down Monday night in Studio City when newlyweds Kai and Naomi Hall were cruising the kitchen products aisle. Lo and behold, they almost literally bumped into Chrissy ... who happily improv'd this clip.

The Halls tell us they were beside themselves, obvious from the vid, and described Chrissy as "humble, sweet, generous" and more interested in hearing about them than herself.

One thing she wasn't? Loose-lipped. They tried like hell to get anything out of her about Tuesday's season finale, but she wouldn't crack.

So, yeah ... Jack's death ... still a mystery.

Snoop Dogg's music vid depicting a President Trump assassination has caught the attention of the Secret Service.

A spokesperson for the president's protective team tells us they were made aware of the video Monday. We're told Secret Service honchos are aware of Snoop's vid, but it's unclear if there will be any further investigation into whether the rapper poses a real threat.

It's a similar situation to Madonna saying she's thought about blowing up the White House. We're told the Secret Service was aware of that incident as well.

Ultimately, nothing happened to her ... but we'll see if the "Lavender" video's controversial imagery passes muster too.

Barack, Michelle Obama and Ivanka Trump all have a neighbor who really blows ... when it comes to getting rid of snow, and he's willing to help 'em dig out from winter Storm Stella.

We got D.C. resident Mario Castillo Tuesday -- who lives on the Obamas' block, and around the corner from Ivanka and Jared in the Kalorama Heights 'hood. He says he's got the snow blowing game locked down, which means he's been busy the last 24 hours.

As for the former and current First Families ... Mario's got a proposal. Seems like a good deal.

Donald Trump's personal lawyer says Snoop crossed the line in a big way by mocking the president with a gun.

Michael Cohen went on "TMZ Live" Tuesday and was indignant over Snoop's "Lavender" video, in which a Trump character in clown face is confronted by Snoop with what turns out to be a gag gun.

Cohen says it doesn't matter who the president is -- Trump, Obama or anyone else -- it's just plain wrong.

Several Victoria's Secret models are uniting for a common goal -- making the Miami beach even hotter than usual.

Taylor Hill, Romee Strijd, Elsa Hosk, Jasmine Tookes, Sara Sampaio, Josephine Skriver and others posed together in very tight formation ... all wearing white, lacy lingerie because ... why the hell not?
