Rapper NBA YoungBoy Young Thug Hangs With Me Forever It Only Cost Me $150k!!!

Published | Updated

Rapper NBA YoungBoy's setting the bar high when it comes to friendship and loyalty ... immortalizing Young Thug with this SICK pendant.

We're told YoungBoy reached out to Joe the Jeweler, aka "Shyne," in Philly and requested the custom pendant ... encrusted with 95 carat VVS diamonds worth around $150k. Shyne needed about 2 months to complete the masterpiece, which btw is a replica of an actual YT pic.

So why Young Thug? YoungBoy considers him a great friend and an idol. It's that simple.

Here's hoping he doesn't need to have JoJo Capone on standby.

THE STONEWALL OF CHYNA

Blac Chyna's firing off a Valentine's Day message for her almost sister-in-law Kim Kardashian -- don't be cruel!

Sources close to Chyna tell TMZ ... she's pissed about the "gift" she received the other day from Kim. As we first reported, KK sent a bunch of giant chocolate hearts -- with her new perfume inside -- to dozens of friends, loved ones ... and haters.

We'll give you one guess which list Blac Chyna made.

While she was tight-lipped Thursday at LAX when we asked about Kim's chocolate heart ... we're told BC considers Kim a "very cruel, huge bully" who's using "Mean Girls" tactics to promote her product.

Our sources say she's surprised Kim would do this, since she's Dream's aunt. She also disagrees with the "hater" label because she says she's never tried to tarnish Kim's image.

There's that little matter of attempting to sue Kim for getting "Rob and Chyna" canceled -- but who's counting?

Heidi Klum Hit the Showers In Public, Please!!!

READY FOR HER CLOSEUP

Heidi Klum likes to watch ... models get wet on Hollywood Boulevard. It's her job, after all.

Heidi spent part of her Friday rolling through the heart of Hollywood while watching a bikini-clad model take a shower ... on the back of a flatbed truck. Just another day in La La Land, right?

The scene was being shot for "Germany's Next Topmodel," which Heidi judges and also executive produces. She taped something similar last year when she had models posing on a bed in the same area.

Based on her nonchalant reaction to the good, clean, wet fun ... we'd guess she's producing and not judging. Yet..

Heidi's TGIF > yours.

Kevin Hart Watch Out for That Train!!!

Published | Updated

Kevin Hart pulled a great escape Friday ... narrowly dodging a passenger train!

For one scary second, it looked like Kev might become the first casualty of the Super Bowl LII events in and around Minneapolis. We got him leaving Cowboy Jack's in downtown, and started talking about the "Martin" reboot. Kevin was so excited to talk about it ... neither he, nor our photog, noticed the light rail train coming down the tracks.

Watch his security team spring into action, but really ... you gotta watch for the look on Kevin's face when he hears the train's horn sound.

Happy to report, crisis averted.

PROUD OF OUR TEAM

If President Donald Trump decides to take a last minute trip to the Super Bowl -- don't expect Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey to lead the welcoming party!

For those unfamiliar ... 36-year-old Frey has made headlines for speaking his mind -- most recently when he made a video in which he asked if the city was really welcoming "f**king Eagles" fans to Minnesota.

So we asked if he would welcome Trump, too ... the answer? Not so much.

Frey did, however, say his dream celebrity meet-and-greet would be Snoop Dogg -- saying a Gin and Juice session with the rapper is on his bucket list!

... Unless Snoop suddenly becomes an Eagles fan.

Logic's Grammy Performance Tripled Calls To National Suicide Prevention Lifeline

Published | Updated

Logic's live performance of his song "1-800-273-8255" with Alessia Cara and Khalid at the Grammys wasn't just moving ... it probably helped save many lives.

A spokesperson for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline tells TMZ ... in the 2 hours after the rapper performed his hit track -- the title of which is the number to the lifeline -- the national network answered 3 times the typical amount of calls in the 2-hour window.

The NSPL says Logic's performance was "an incredible moment in suicide prevention," and he helped demonstrate worldwide that "healing is happening every day for people in crisis, and that there is help available.”

When the song was originally released in April 2017, calls to the Lifeline increased by 50 percent ... and there was a similar boost when he performed it at the VMAs in August.

Jeremy London Arrested for Domestic Violence

Published | Updated

5:00 PM PT -- London's spokesperson, Dominic Friesen, tells TMZ ... Jeremy's arrest stemmed from a private marital matter with Juliet. We're told it was an isolated incident and "standard protocol in an attempt to diffuse an emotionally-charged situation." The couple's addressing the incident privately.

Jeremy London's been arrested for domestic violence ... and he's looking really rough in his mug shot.

The "Mallrats" actor, and Jason London's twin bro, was booked Friday in Jackson County, Mississippi on one count of domestic violence simple assault -- a misdemeanor. It's unclear right now who else was involved in the alleged incident ... but law enforcement sources tell us he was arrested in the front yard of a home owned by his wife, Juliet London.

As we reported back in the day ... London was charged with domestic violence in 2012 for a fight with his estranged wife, Melissa Cunningham. He allegedly pulled her hair and hit her on the head, but the charges were dismissed a year later.

Jeremy and Melissa divorced in 2014. He's since remarried to Juliet.

Again, we don't know if she's the alleged victim in this latest arrest.

Adam Venit to Terry Crews Relax, You Weren't Injured And It Wasn't Sexual

Published | Updated

The man Terry Crews claims sexually assaulted him at a party has responded in new legal docs, saying it was all a case of no harm, no foul.

Adam Venit, a big Hollywood agent at William Morris Endeavor, just filed his response to actor Terry's lawsuit, in which Terry alleged Adam grabbed his genitals in the middle of a party.

Adam issued a general denial, adding Terry can't win the lawsuit because he didn't suffer any injury and, on top of that, none of his conduct was sexual.

Sources connected to Adam say he had too much to drink that night and the groping was horseplay, for which he apologized to Terry the next day.
