Drake didn't get an Instagram model pregnant and thinks her claim is so ridiculous he didn't even sic his team on her ... sources connected to the rapper tell TMZ.

It's interesting ... Layla Lace posted earlier this week that Drake knocked her up in London and went radio silent once she told him. But she has since scrubbed all traces of the allegations.

There have been rumblings Drake's team went nuts on her and threatened her with a lawsuit unless she removed the posts. Not true. He's never even met her.

Our sources say Drake's team never reached out to Layla much less threatened her ... they believe she did it for attention and when people talked about her there was no need to keep the posts up.

Nick Cannon has been hanging out with Mariah Carey in public a lot lately, and he says that won't change ... for one obvious reason.

We got Nick Saturday night going into Au Fudge, where he was meeting up with Mimi and the kids. We asked if it's coincidence they've been seen together quite a bit since Mariah's breakup with Bryan Tanaka.

Nick sets the record straight with a friendly reminder.

As we reported ... Mariah and Bryan broke up partly because of his extreme jealousy over Nick.

The ex-employee Vicki Gunvalson claims she caught red-handed embezzling is going to be locked up soon enough ... if she gets her way.

We got the star of 'Real Housewives of Orange County' out Saturday night at Craig's with her squad -- who had A LOT to say about interracial dating btw -- before she launched into a rant about the guy she's labeling a crook.

We broke the story ... Vicki called cops after one of her new hires allegedly siphoned commissions from her biz, and there's an open investigation now. She's clearly gunning for prosecution.

Kevin Hart wants Prince's new music to be released to the public, but he's also got a theory -- a short, sweet one -- on why it's being blocked.

We got Kevin Saturday heading into Tao in L.A. and caught him up on the Prince news ... that the new album was pulled after his estate got a restraining order against the producer of the unreleased tracks.

He makes no bones about whether it should eventually be released -- but check out what he thinks is behind the legal battle in the first place.

Olivia Culpo was feeling posy in these almost identical floral photos ... keep your eye on the prize and see if you can find the differences blooming in the plant-filled pics.

Tom Brady didn't get his White House visit sacked by his supermodel wife ... that's according to his ex-teammate, Donte Stallworth, who tells TMZ Sports Brady would never duck his guy, Donald Trump.

Fluffy to Buffy? Gabriel Iglesias says that's the plan, and even though he's boxing to get it done ... do NOT call him the Mexican Butterbean!

We caught up with the comedian Friday at LAX, where he gave us a weight loss update. Remember, Fluffy canceled a few tour dates and rearranged some others to focus on his health. He took up boxing and says he's already had double digit success.

Gabriel flexed his new muscle for us, dropped a few jokes about his fitness regimen ... but also had a message for anyone else struggling with demons.

Oh, and since he brought him up -- take us out, Butterbean!

V Live Memphis knows the best things come in pairs -- like 2 girls twerking in unison, or one guy getting danced on by 2 chicks at the same time.

The new strip joint had 200 girls audition in hopes of joining the V Live team in Memphis ... at a new $10 million state of the art facility. We're told 125 dancers were chosen and 100 more from other V Live clubs joined them for the grand opening on Friday night.

The best part of the casting process was saved for the guys in attendance who got plucked out of the crowd to play a part in the live clinics the dancers put on.

Derek Fisher says Carmelo Anthony needs to be focused on family ... not basketball ... and promises he'll reach out to his former player and help him cope with the separation from his superstar wife, La La.

Derek coached Melo on the Knicks a few years back -- and when we got him out in Calabasas with his GF, Gloria Govan, we had to ask if he'd he heard the news about Melo's marriage.

Interesting question for Fisher (Govan LITERALLY sips tea when we ask) ... but he goes full-on friend, saying Anthony should tune out everything except his family. He also promises to call Melo to offer his support.

Randy Jackson's totally down for getting the "American Idol" band back together ... if someone else takes the lead and makes it happen.

We got Randy at LAX ... he repeatedly confirms with our guy he's in for a reboot, but suggests one of the other former stars of the show is the linchpin.

Ewan McGregor’s looks are a force to be reckoned with!

Here’s a 25-year-old version of the ‘Trainspotting’ star at the Cannes Film Festival back in 1996 (left) and 21 years later ... the sci-fi staple better known as Obi-Wan Kenobi -- in New York City earlier this month (right).

He may not be 'The Last Jedi' ... but he's certainly the hottest.

The question is ...

Erin Moran who famously played Joanie Cunningham on "Happy Days" and its spinoff "Joanie Loves Chachi" has died ... TMZ has learned.

We're told authorities in Indiana got a call just after 4 PM ET Saturday from someone reporting an "unresponsive female." EMT's arrived and found Erin Moran's body ... she was already dead.

Moran shot to spotlight in the early 70s when she was cast on "Happy Days" as Joanie, the younger sister of Ron Howard's character. She continued the role in 1982 alongside Scott Baio in "Joanie Loves Chachi" but the show only lasted one season.

Erin had a tough time after her "Happy Days" stardom ... a combination of drinking and bizarre behavior that eventually landed her in a trailer park in Indiana. She had run out of money and was reportedly kicked out of the mobile home she shared with husband Steve Fleischmann.

Through her career, Moran also landed roles on "Murder, She Wrote," "Desperation Boulevard," and "Celebrity Fit Club."

An autopsy is pending.

She was 56.

The mother of twins who was allegedly struck by a stroller by an American Airlines flight attendant tried fitting the double wide buggy on the narrow plane after being asked to leave it off ... TMZ has learned.

We're told the woman had the stroller tagged by employees at gate check-in and was asked to leave it at the bottom of the jet bridge before boarding the flight so it could be stored underneath the plane.

Our sources say the woman tried to get the double wide stroller inside the narrow plane and employees attempted to remove it. We're told in removing the stroller, the woman was struck while holding her baby ... and nearly ignited a brawl between the employee and another passenger.

American suspended the employee while they investigate and has apologized for the incident, saying, "We are deeply sorry for the pain we have caused this passenger and her family and to any other customers affected by the incident."

Kenny G gave some travelers the show of a lifetime -- playing his soprano sax at 30,000 feet -- and it was all for charity.

The legendary musician was on a Tampa to L.A. flight Saturday when one of the attendants announced they were raising money for Relay For Life. Kenny was all for it, agreeing that if everyone on the plane could raise $2k, he'd go up and down the aisle and play. Sure enough, the goal was hit, and Kenny did his thing.

Caitlyn Jenner says she'll never go into an in-depth conversation about the surgery that removed her penis because to ask a transgender person about the procedure is flat out inappropriate.

Jenner sat down with Diane Sawyer on 20/20 Friday night to discuss everything from family to her everyday routine. Naturally, Sawyer also touched on Caitlyn's surgery -- which she mentions in her book -- to remove her penis.
