Tyga is nothing if not predictable, because he's being sued again where he lives ... and he also got his poor little son sued in the process.

Mezhgan Hussainy, Simon Cowell's makeup artist who he was once set on marrying, has a super cool house in Bev Hills that she rented to him for $40k a month. Tyga moved in in March 2017 and paid rent for awhile .. until he didn't.

Hussainy claims the rent check stopped in January and he's made no effort to catch up.

Chris Brown wants to reiterate -- just in case you have any questions -- he was playing around with women he considers "homies" when he put his hands on one of their necks.

Chris reacted to the photos TMZ posted of him partying in Miami during Ultra Fest. Although the woman seems distressed in some of the pics, both she and Chris told us it was horseplay.

Breezy doubled down on that on IG, saying ... "Y'all know damn well I ain't going down that road. There is no need to even defend myself on the matter. Everyone that's around (girl/guy) are my HOMIES. NO FOUL PLAY... NO IGNORANT S**T. END of discussion. LOVE"

His point is crystal clear ... leave Rihanna's name outta this.

John Goodman's happy Roseanne Barr's happy about getting a congratulatory call from Donald Trump ... but the idea of the Prez calling him? That's a laugh riot.

Dan Conner was out in L.A. Thursday, looking way more chipper than the day before about "Roseanne" grabbing the attention of 18.2 million viewers in the sitcom's return to TV. He says the Trump call meant a lot to his TV wife -- but only needed 2 words to make it clear, he and Roseanne are NOT on the same page when it comes to POTUS.

As we reported ... 45 kinda took credit for 'Roseanne's' success, since its star is a Trump supporter, both on the show and in real life.

Rihanna's "Bitch Better Have My Money" is now the battle cry for Howard University students protesting the school's massive financial aid scandal ... and Thursday it was blaring on campus.

A crowd of students stormed the school's administration building and chanted RiRi's lyrics -- a not-so tongue-in-cheek response to the school firing 6 employees for misappropriating more than $1 million intended for low-income students.

The university's president, Wayne Fredrick, released a statement Wednesday saying the school found out about the allegations back in December 2016, investigated the matter and then fired the alleged thieves last year.

Students on campus only got the news this week when a whistleblower blogged about it -- and they're, understandably, pissed. We suspect Howard has a new unofficial fight song.

Abby Lee Miller is halfway back to normal on the heels of her prison release -- 'cause she just got her nails done on the outside for the first time in almost a year.

Abby was spotted Thursday hitting up Pampered Hands -- a nail salon in WeHo -- just a couple days after being transferred to an L.A.-area halfway house to finish her sentence.

The star of "Welcome to Sweetie Pie's" is firing back at ex-gf "Basketball Wives" star Jennifer Williams, calling BS on her claims she was abusive to her.

James "Tim" Norman says Jennifer is being incredibly vindictive after producers of "Sweetie Pie's" pressed him to get engaged to her but he wasn't into it. Jennifer got a restraining order, claiming he was prone to violence and was stalking her to drum up attention for his show.

Tim says she's the vicious one, saying she tried to run him down in her car. He also says she slashed his tires. Tim says Jennifer is also pissed off because he closed the cash register drawer on her, refusing to bankroll her online business, "Classy Girl Wardrobe."

He also says she's just trying to create a storyline on "Basketball Wives" to keep herself relevant.

David Hogg is basically telling Fox News host Laura Ingraham to take her apology and shove it ... or, at the very least, make it more sincere.

The Parkland, FL teen just fired back at Ingraham saying she's sorry for calling Hogg a whiner over his college rejections. Hogg thinks her mea culpa was done merely "to save your advertisers" ... and it's not good enough for him.

Hogg says, "I will only accept your apology only if you denounce the way your network has treated my friends and I in this fight."

The father of a Marjory Stoneman Douglas student who was killed was first to blast Ingraham for her apology, and David co-signed.

Donald Trump is still knee-deep in the TV ratings game -- even as President of the United States -- as Roseanne Barr can attest ... 'cause he called to congratulate her on her 18 million viewers.

Trump confirmed the phone call Thursday, during an event in Ohio, and it sounds like he was more excited about it than even Roseanne and ABC execs -- because he's kinda taking credit for her big win.

He definitely knows his demographics, and told the audience of factory workers "Roseanne" was "about us." On the show, Roseanne voted for Trump ... and butts heads with her sister who supported Hillary.

Mel B is not retaliating against Stephen Belafonte by keeping her daughter, Angel, from him ... she says she wants him out of the picture because she now has a strong relationship with the child's biological father -- Eddie Murphy.

Mel B and Stephen are at war over custody of 10-year-old Angel. Although Eddie's the dad, Stephen raised her with Mel B since birth.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Mel B says while she was with Stephen he aggressively tried to drive a wedge between her and Eddie. She says Stephen once took her phone and sent text messages to Eddie's assistant ... and whatever he texted pissed Eddie off enough to cancel a visit with Angel.

She says Stephen's allegation that Eddie has abandoned Angel is BS ... Mel B says Eddie has interacted with Angel numerous times.

Mel B says since Stephen's been out of the picture she's resurrected her relationship with Eddie. He got Angel her first cell phone, Angel named one of her dogs Axel after Eddie's character in "Beverly Hills Cop" and she's plastered pics of the "Shrek" premiere on her bedroom wall.

Mel B says Angel is flourishing now but is terrified of Stephen.

She also says it's laughable that Stephen has bonded with Angel ... she says he confuses Angel for his other daughter, Madison, in his legal docs.

Mary Kay Letourneau's husband slammed into 2 vehicles stopped at a light, and when cops showed up they said he was drunk and high and busted him for DUI ... TMZ has learned.

Vili Fualaau was arrested on February 2, according to docs obtained by TMZ, moments after he failed to stop his Mercury Mountaineer in Burien, WA. Cops say he had a dazed expression, bloodshot eyes and slurred speech.

Vili agreed to take a field sobriety test, but just as he was about to start, cops say Mary Kay drove onto the scene and yelled at her husband to stop because their lawyer was on the way. Vili took her advice, and instead took a blood test at the station ... 2 hours later.

Prosecutors say his BAC was .08 -- the minimum level for DUI -- but he also had THC in his blood. Vili was booked for DUI, and posted bail. He's got a court hearing this week.

Interestingly, he's now 34 ... the same age Mary Kay was when she started having sex with Vili, who was in the 6th grade at the time.

TMZ broke the story, Vili filed for separation from Mary Kay last year, but later withdrew it.

Chris Brown was horseplaying in Miami a few days ago and, even though some of the pics look ominous, Chris and the woman say it was all in good fun.

Chris and a bunch of people were partying at a home he was renting during the Ultra Festival. The photos were taken at 9 AM Monday.

In a few photos ... Chris has his right hand around a woman's throat. Although the woman looks like she's in distress in a few pics, she and Chris insist it's horseplay. In other photos you see the woman smiling as Chris touches her neck.

Chris' lawyer, Mark Geragos, tells TMZ, "She's a friend. It's obviously playful as she confirmed. Whoever invaded their privacy will be held accountable."

Stormy Daniels and her immediate family aren't letting her showdown with President Trump slow down their daily activities, but she is rolling with oversized protection now.

Stormy was out in her hometown of Dallas on Wednesday with her husband Glendon Crain -- the guy with shades, no sleeves -- and their daughter.

If the ex-porn star seems kinda carefree, probably has a lot to do with the bodyguard -- big, tall, with earbuds -- shadowing her.

Stormy's little girl is the child she referenced on "60 Minutes" when describing the 2011 threat she says she got from a strange guy in Las Vegas. She claims the man said, "That's a beautiful little girl. It'd be a shame if something happened to her mom."

Her lawyer, Michael Avenatti believes the threat can only be traced back to 2 people -- Trump or his attorney, Michael Cohen.

Janice Dickinson is suing Ryan Seacrest's production company, claiming a storyline on "Shahs of Sunset" that she stole a romper from GG was manufactured and just plain false.

Janice's beef is over an episode where Janice was backstage at a runway show when GG eyed the romper Janice was wearing and then turned to Erik Rosette, a fashion designer, and said, "What's going on with that outfit?" The guy responded, "You got jacked."

According to the suit, GG showed feigned outraged and portrayed Janice as "an arrogant, unprofessional and purportedly past-her-prime celebrity."

Janice says the truth is that she was completely unaware the romper had been selected by anyone else. She says Rosette was talking to made-up his story to create controversy.

Rich the Kid sure knows how to hype up an album with some good ol' fashioned viral marketing -- just ask students at USC ... and our photog, who got a taste of it himself.

We got Rich Thursday at LAX, a day after he was spotted disrupting a USC class that was in session -- where he hopped up on a table, tossed around some papers and played tunes off his new record, "The World Is Yours" ... which officially drops this Friday.

He says the crash course was the real deal, and he didn't even have to answer to any authorities for the stunt. Rich also tells us it was all "for the fans" -- but we know a plug when we see it.

Zac Efron and Alexandra Daddario certainly look like a couple ... a couple of dog lovers taking their pups on an adventure to the neighborhood pet store.

The "Baywatch" movie co-stars hit up Tailwaggers in Los Feliz Wednesday afternoon, where Zac bought a dog crate for his gray Pitbull mix ... and Alexandra hooked up her beloved pooch, Levon, with some goodies, too.

The actors have been rumored to be dating since last summer's movie release ... but nothing's been confirmed. What is confirmed -- their doggies are adorable.

Laura Ingraham's show is taking a hit for her going after Parkland leader David Hogg ... TMZ has learned.

The FOX News host has lost the backing of TripAdvisor, a key advertiser on her show. The move comes on the heels of what some feel was Ingraham cyberbullying 17-year-old Hogg. A TridAdvisor rep tells us ... it doesn't condone her inappropriate comments, adding, "In our view, these statements focused on a high school student, cross the line of decency."

In the more bad news department, for Ingraham ... the pet food line Nutrish, owned by Rachael Ray, also announced Thursday it's pulling ads from her show.

As we reported ... Hogg called for a boycott of Ingraham on the heels of the anchor tweeting Hogg whined about getting rejected by 4 colleges, and called out specific companies like TripAdvisor, AT&T and Hulu asking why they support cyberbullying.

For the record -- Hogg was not whining.

7:10 PM PT -- More companies have announced they're pulling ads from Ingraham's show, including Johnson & Johnson, Stitch Fix, Hulu, Joseph A. Banks, Wayfair, Nestle and Expedia.

10:20 AM PT -- Laura's now apologizing for "any upset or hurt my tweet caused [David] or any of the brave victims of Parkland."

... immediately after that horrific shooting and even noted how "poised" he was given the tragedy. As always, he’s welcome to return to the show anytime for a productive discussion. WATCH: https://t.co/5wcd00wWpd (2/2)
