Charlamagne tha God is threatening to sue Rolling Stone if it doesn't apologize for accusing him of making transphobic comments.

The 'Breakfast Club' host fired off a legal letter to the magazine saying its July 31 article on Rollingstone.com, headlined ... "Janet Mock on Charlamagne tha God's Transphobic Comments," is defamatory as hell since he didn't make such comments.

Rolling Stone has since changed its headline to "Janet Mock Speaks Out Following Charlamagne tha God's Controversial Morning Show." But the DJ is still furious and he's demanding an apology, full retraction and money for damage to his reputation.

You'll recall Charlamagne had comedian Lil Duval on his show, and outrage ensued after Duval said if he ever discovered he'd unknowingly slept with a transgender woman, she would be "dying."

Charlamagne seemed to condemn the remark and reminded Duval it's a hate crime. But Charlamagne says RS took his words out of context to write a fictitious and negative story.

We've reached out to Rolling Stone, so far no word back.

Rihanna blossomed into a feathered beauty for one of Barbados' biggest celebrations.

RiRi's stealing the spotlight with this incredible gem of an outfit as she gets ready for the Grand Kadooment -- marking the end of the world-famous Crop Over Festival.

No doubt Rihanna will stand out even in a sea of bright and shiny outfits lining the streets for the carnival and parade. And, in case you don't subscribe to "a picture's worth 1,000 words" ... here she is in all her glory with a lil shimmy.

Usher allegedly had vaginal sex with at least one of the 2 women who are suing him for failing to disclose he has genital herpes, and he had oral sex with a male who is also suing him ... this according to a new lawsuit.

According to the suit, obtained by TMZ, all 3 plaintiffs allegedly had sex with Usher, "because Raymond [Usher] was a revered celebrity in their eyes who they believed could be loved and trusted."

The lawsuit claims Usher never told them about a herpes diagnosis. It's important to note, the lawsuit is based on news reports that Usher is carrying the STD and that he settled a herpes lawsuit for $1.1 million a few years back.

The suit claims the 2 women and the man have all suffered severe emotional distress, depression and anxiety. It also says they have experienced embarrassment, shame, anxiety and revulsion.

The suit does not give specifics on where the 3 people had sex with Usher nor does it say when. One of the plaintiffs, Quantasia Sharpton, held a news conference with her celeb lawyer, Lisa Bloom, saying Usher picked her out of a crowd during a concert and later had sex with her.

Bloom says one of the plaintiffs -- not Sharpton -- has tested positive for herpes.

The lawsuit doesn't specify the amount of damages, but asks for punitives as well as a judge's order requiring Usher to fully disclose his alleged herpes diagnosis.

Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes had a rare night out in public ... VERY public ... as in Disneyland!

The usually private couple left their kids at home Sunday night, and tooled around the amusement park for a date night -- wearing only ball caps for cover, but going mostly unnoticed.

The couple rode Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, hit up the Haunted Mansion and even subjected themselves to It's a Small World. They also got some merch at a souvenir shop -- gotta bring something home for Esmeralda and Amada.

We're sure Ryan had the run of the park, being a former Mouseketeer. Also, he's Ryan Gosling.

Boosie Badazz insists he wasn't REALLY going to get a woman to give his son oral sex, but adds ... the 14-year-old kid doesn't need any help hooking up with chicks.

Boosie sparked a little controversy with his birthday post for Tootie Raw, where he said he was giving him money and a "bad bitch" to perform fellatio on him. But the rapper tells us he "was just clowning" ... and there's no woman for hire.

Chance the Rapper's bodyguard allegedly unleashed some WWE moves on a guy right in front of the MC ... and the whole thing was caught on surveillance video.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Chance's private security guard, 44-year-old Star Thomas, was arrested Thursday night at the W Hotel in Chicago after he allegedly body slammed a man in the lobby. We're told Chance had a front row seat as it all went down.

The alleged victim was trying get into the same elevator as Chance and his crew around 9 PM, according to our sources ... and the bodyguard blocked him. We're told about 2 hours later they ran into the man again in the lobby, and that's when Thomas threw him down.

Chance's bodyguard was booked for misdemeanor simple battery. We've reached out to his camp for comment ... so far, no word back.

Heidi Klum is proof ice cream does the body good.

The supermodel showed off her physique Sunday in a black string bikini while on vacay in St. Barts. The 44-year-old smoke show was there with her boyfriend, Vito Schnabel, and her family.

Vito had his usual front row seat for the Heidi show ... as she caught waves and got down and dirty in the sand. If you look closely, there was also a unicorn sighting on the beach.

A woman who is suing Usher for allegedly exposing her to genital herpes has come forward, saying Usher cherry-picked her out of a crowd at one of his concerts, got her number, went to her hotel and had sex with her without disclosing he allegedly had genital herpes.

Quantasia Sharpton appeared with celeb lawyer Lisa Bloom Monday morning, saying she was celebrating her 19th birthday at an Usher concert, wearing a birthday crown, when she was contacted by Usher's security.

Sharpton says she's negative for herpes but still feels violated.

Bloom went on to say she doesn't know for sure if Usher has herpes but there are media reports saying just that and he has remained silent.

Bloom is filing a lawsuit on behalf of 2 women and 1 man, all of whom claim they have had sexual contact with Usher since his alleged diagnosis. She says 1 of the remaining clients -- either the man or woman -- has tested positive for herpes.

Attorney Bloom went on to say she's been contacted by others and may file additional lawsuits.

Bloom says one of the things she wants is a court order forcing Usher to reveal to his future sex partners that he has an STD ... again, his health status has not been confirmed.

Looks like it's going down for Boosie's son's birthday -- as in oral sex -- but the kid's only 14.

From the "God we hope this is just a VERY bad joke" department ... Boosie wished his son, Tootie Raw, a happy birthday and promised him a bag of money and "a bad bitch to give u some head."

Here's the thing -- even if it is a joke, it's a joke about child molestation, right?

In far less troubling news ... Boosie also promised Tootie's dropping a mixtape soon.

Jillian Michaels was so fed up with a yacht crew allegedly trying to extort her she took matters into her own hands.

We broke the story ... Jillian plunked down $60k for a boat during a 12-day trip along Italy's Amalfi Coast. Problem is ... Jillian says the boat was filthy, and had no hot water or wi-fi.

Then things got scary when the crew started demanding more money for fuel because Jillian said the yacht broker told her the crew's fuel money had been drained "because of Mafia in Capri."

Anna Faris and Chris Pratt are the latest couple heading down splitsville ... they just announced they're separating after 8 years of marriage.

Anna and Chris made it public Sunday night, saying ... "We are sad to announce we are legally separating. We tried hard for a long time, and we're really disappointed."

They go on to say they want to keep it private for their son's sake, adding they still love each other and cherish their time together.

Chris and Anna got hitched in July 2009. They have 1 young son, Jack.

Serena Williams dusted off the poodle skirt and saddle shoes to travel back to the Fabulous '50s for her baby shower over the weekend ... but not without the help of her superstar friends!!

Justin Bieber can joke about it now ... driving over a photog is so a thing of the past.

The Biebs was leaving The Peppermint Club in WeHo -- it took a while for his Mercedes G Wagon to come around to valet, and as the paps gathered ... the tension built.

So you gotta see what happened once Justin's whip arrived, and he got behind the wheel -- the first time he's been in this situation since the accident 2 weeks ago. Let's just say, it looks like both Justin and the photogs have learned their lesson.

Outta the way!

Chrissy Teigen's breaking out in green ... almost from head to toe.

The supermodel, hubby John Legend and baby Luna are in Venice, Italy for a little family vacay. Chrissy showed off her best assets in her loose tropical-themed outfit that perfectly matched her hair wrap.

Chrissy's diggin' her outfit and John's also clearly loving it ... he had to snap a pic.

Chrissy's cleavage is no stranger to stealing the spotlight ... who can forget the couple's "Slow Dance" mishap that left everyone wanting more?

Kylie Jenner's man, Travis Scott, put a big smile on her face ... and that's even before they got home.

KJ was grinning Sunday night on her way out of Staples Center, where she saw Travis open for Kendrick Lamar on the Damn. tour. That look on Kylie's face -- and the fact she even showed up at the concert -- definitely refutes the rumors she and Trav had broken up.

She got goosebumps, and he got a handful after the show ... just a guess.

Liam Hemsworth might've come off as a married man to the average passerby this weekend from the looks of the hardware on his hand ... but he's not.

Liam was hangin' with fiancee Miley Cyrus' mom, Tish, Sunday at the Cyrus estate in eastern Kentucky -- sans Miley -- where he was seen sporting what appeared to be a wedding band.

We did some digging -- turns out Liam and Miley have not tied the knot. People connected to both whom we know and trust say they're "100%" not hitched ... not yet, at least.

It's just another false alarm, which Miley's set off before herself.

The couple's been engaged for well over a year and a half ... apparently they're keeping it that way for now.
