Amber Rose Bounces Around With New BF ... Moshin' It Up at SOAD Show

Published | Updated

Amber Rose is one well-rounded lady -- able to strut her stuff on the SlutWalk one day ... and headbang to System of a Down right up against a mosh pit the next.

TMZ got a hold of this video of Amber and her new boyfriend -- Def Jam Records exec Alexander 'AE' Edwards -- rocking out Saturday night at a SOAD show in San Bernardino ... and they were both pretty damn close to the main thashin' action near the stage.

They were far enough not to get sucked into the moshing in front of them, but it looks like Amber got bumped by somebody right next to her (not her BF), who gave her a slight body check. She bounced back though -- which is perfectly appropriate for the title of this song.

As we first told you ... Amber and 'AE' have been seeing each other for a few weeks now -- but they've known each other for years through their connection to Tyga and Blac Chyna ... which has its own implications. They were showing off some major PDA at Amber's 4th annual SlutWalk in L.A. last weekend, just a few short months after dumping Monte Morris.

Seems like a hardcore love connection between these two so far -- or about as hardcore as you can get wearing a System of a Down shirt ... AT a System of a Down gig. Tsk tsk, Amber.

NEW FRIENDS

Two titans shared the stage Saturday night as the king of Toronto brought out the newly minted king of LA.

Drake invited LeBron James on stage with Travis Scott at the L.A.'s Staples Center during his Aubrey and the Three Migos Tour.

The trio jumped and danced while performing Drake and Travis' hit song, "SICKO MODE," off of Travis Scott's new album, Astroworld.

Drake recently sat down with LeBron on his show, "The Shop," with Maverick Carter. Drake talked about his trip to Wyoming to work with Kanye on an album, and the beef between Kanye and Pusha T that followed.

Mally Mall Kanye's a Genuis Trying to Help the U.S. of A

Published | Updated

Mally Mall says Kanye West is doing great work, trying to help the United States ... and he's nothing less than a genius.

We got Mally outside Staples Center Saturday night where Drake performed, and he sang the praises of Ye.

Mally was especially complimentary about Kanye's efforts to free Larry Hoover, who's serving a life sentence for murder.

Kanye is currently in Africa and, fact is, in addition to recording an album, he's spending time doing humanitarian work in various African nations.

Elon Musk I'm Going into the Booze Biz ... With Teslaquila

Published | Updated

Elon Musk is going all George Clooney/Rande Gerber ... at least it seems that way because he appears to be serious about getting into the tequila game.

Musk has filed legal docs to develop a Tesla-brand tequila. This started as an April Fools joke ... where he tweeted Tesla had gone bankrupt and "Elon was found passed out against a Tesla Model 3, surrounded by Teslaquilla bottles, the tracks of dried tears still visible on his cheeks."

Well it appears it wasn't a joke, because Elon filed docs saying his company intended to manufacture the booze, ID'ing it as "distilled agave liquor."

He even tweeted the mock up of the bottle, adding, "Teslaquila coming soon."

The reason this is no joke ... filing trademark applications with the federal governments must legally be done in good faith. The Feds don't appreciate practical jokes ... and there can be legal consequences.

Ice-T and Coco Do NOT Compare Us ... To Kim and Kanye

Published | Updated

Ice-T wants to make one thing crystal clear ... he and Coco are NOTHING like Kim and Kanye, but he does think Ye and Trump are birds of a feather.

We got Ice-T and Coco in New York City Saturday, and Ice had nothing but disdain for the Oval Office meeting.

He thinks Trump is so entrenched in his views, no one's going to change them ... and Kanye was just used by the Prez to score more African-American voters ... or at least that was the plan.

And check out what happens when our photog compares them to K & K.

'SNL' Mocks Trump/Kanye Oval Summit

Published | Updated

Donald Trump came to a startling revelation last night ... Kanye West is the black him!!!

Alec Baldwin made his return to 'SNL' to parody Ye's Oval chit chat. This one is especially interesting, because they danced around making fun of mental illness.

Also interesting ... most times 'SNL' takes a real event and makes it broader, but this one was pretty much true to form ... with all the hits, runs and errors from Thursday's pre-lunch meeting. The reporters in the crowd were definitely funnier than the real deal ... for sure.

At the very end, 'SNL' makes a not-so-oblique reference to the rumored "Celebrity Apprentice" outtakes ... Omarosa and others have said Trump used the n-word during filming of the TV show.

Fabolous Patched Things Up with Emily B's Dad Day After Shooting Threats

Published | Updated

Fabolous and his baby mama's father agreed to let bygones be bygones shortly after that on-camera confrontation where Fab made death threats ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to the rapper and Emily B tell TMZ ... as heated as the argument was back on March 28, Fab and Emily's dad connected the very next day. We're told they discussed how things got out of hand, and said they would bury the hatchet. They've been hanging out together like family ... just like they used to before they went toe-to-toe.

What makes this awkward now is the fact Fabolous was just indicted for allegedly assaulting Emily, and for threatening to shoot her dad during that frightening driveway exchange.

033018_fabolous_kal MARCH 2018
THE CONFRONTATION

TMZ got the video showing Fabolous fly into a rage while brandishing a pair of scissors, and yelling about shooting Emily and her father.

We're told Fab and Emily's father are so tight now, he's even willing to testify on Fab's behalf if the case goes to trial. As we've told you, Emily and Fabolous are still together. Likewise, our sources say he and her father were best friends before the incident, and remain that way now.

Oh, and we're told those reports Fab and Emily are married ... are false.

Kim Kardashian West Slammed for Support of Death Row Inmate ... 'Slap in the Face' to Victims

Published | Updated

Kim Kardashian West's tweet advocating for DNA testing that could possibly free a death row prisoner is completely disrespectful to the family of those he murdered ... so says the prosecutor on the case.

San Bernardino County D.A. Mike Ramos tells TMZ ... his office firmly stands behind the conviction of Kevin Cooper, who was found guilty of 4 murders in 1983. Cooper has maintained his innocence and even suggested he was framed.

Ramos says he has no doubt Cooper committed the horrendous killings, and claims the case against him only gets stronger each time he appeals.

As for Kim's tweet -- in which she urges California Gov. Jerry Brown to order advanced DNA testing that could settle the case once and for all -- Ramos says ... "It’s time that we start talking and 'tweeting' about the victims who were brutally murdered in the sanctity of their home."

Ramos adds ... "This latest attempt to free Kevin Cooper is nothing more than a red herring and another slap in the face of the victims and their family members who were forced to suffer a lifetime of pain."

As we reported ... Gov. Brown's office is reviewing the case, and Cooper is grateful Kim put a spotlight on his case.

Tekashi69 Not Allowed at Bellator 208 ... Linked to Past Shooting

Published | Updated

Tekashi69 was just turned away at the door trying to attend fight night on Long Island, and our sources say it's connected to a shooting months ago at the Barclays Center.

The rapper was stopped by security at the Nassau Coliseum in NY Saturday night as he was trying to make his way in for "Bellator 208: Fedor vs. Sonnen" ... sources close to the situation tell TMZ Sports.

We're told 6ix9ine planned to meet up with his pal and Bellator brand ambassador 50 Cent, but wasn't allowed entry. Fiddy wasn't there yet anyway ... but we're told it wouldn't have mattered.

As for why Tekashi's barred ... our sources say it stems from a shooting back in April at the Barclays Center connected to Tekashi's manager, Tr3yway. The same company that owns the Nassau Coliseum owns Barclays, and as we reported ... the rapper's persona non grata at that venue.

So ... we're told it's a case of the rapper being 86'd at both arenas. We also reached out to Bellator ... they had no comment.

Sources close to Tekashi have responded to the incident, telling us ... "It is unfortunate a venue would take it upon itself to treat a person unfairly based on allegations. What happened tonight at the Nassau Coliseum is disappointing."

As for the big fight, and who's going to win tonight between Fedor Emelianenko and Chael Sonnen ... Herschel Walker has a prediction.

DANA KNOWS BEST

Adam Silver says he's "counting his lucky stars" that he's not in Dana White's shoes ... but tells TMZ Sports the UFC honcho HAS to punish Khabib for the brawl he ignited at UFC 229.

We got the NBA commish leaving Michael's in NYC ... and he told us there's just gotta be repercussions for what Nurmagomedov did after whoopin' Conor McGregor last weekend.

"That's a pretty serious issue there," Silver says ... "They gotta deal with it. There's no place for that in sports."

IN THE THICK OF THE BRAWL

Adam tells us he's actually spoken with people who were near the melee at T-Mobile Arena ... and Silver says, the feeling they had after the fight just CAN'T happen.

So, what would Silver's advice be to Dana when it comes to handling the situation??

"You've gotta look at the long-term health of your league," Silver says.

"Don't make a short-term decision."

Charles Manson Bone Fragments Headed to Haunted Museum

Published | Updated

This is creepy, even for Charles Manson -- the hospital gown the notorious murderer was wearing when he died, along with the coroner's toe tag and ALL of his bone fragments are headed to Zak Bagans' Haunted Museum ... a score he's calling the motherload of all motherloads.

The “Ghost Adventures” star tells TMZ ... Manson's grandson, Jason Freeman, gave Zak all of the items this week. They'll be front-and-center at his Vegas Haunted Museum ... which already features Manson's chompers and two paintings -- one that has his urine and another his ashes.

However, the latest cache takes the cake. Manson's hospital gown contains his body fluids ... same goes for the sheet that was draped over Manson's body while it lay in the morgue.

But, that's not all ... how about the electrodes taken off Manson's body after he died, along with his hospital bracelet? Then there are bone fragments ... we're told Freeman scraped the bones from the incinerator after Manson's body was burnt to a crisp. Zak tells us, "This is probably the most powerful possession I now own at my museum."

As for why Freeman donated the items ... Zak tells us Freeman said holding on to them at his home triggered paranormal activity, like weird noises. And then, there's this ... Zak says Freeman told him one day while pulling into his driveway he got a call on his cell from his home phone.

No one was home.

INCREDIBLY STOKED

The QB coach from Season 3 of "Last Chance U" just got hired to join the staff at a major college football program ... which means he had to quit his job bagging groceries at Trader Joe's.

Yep, you read that right.

You remember Frank Diaz from Independence Community College in Kansas -- where he spent months coaching up insanely talented quarterback Malik Henry, who wasn't exactly the easiest guy to work with.

FRANK ON LCU

Diaz was impressive enough on the show that Lane Kiffin, from FAU, called and offered him a job after the 2017 season ... and, guess what? Frank took it!

In his new role, Frank will be working as an assistant to offensive coordinator Charlie Weis Jr. -- which is a huge opportunity for a guy looking for a shot to coach at the Division 1 level.

Diaz says he hasn't talked to his old head coach, Jason Brown, after landing the gig with the Owls ... but he insists there's NO bad blood between the two.

BONUS -- we had to ask Diaz if he's gotten any extra attention from the ladies since the show aired. You're gonna love his response.

Kanye West Back on Twitter ... Preaching About 'Mind Control'

Published | Updated

Kanye West took a break from family time in Africa to get in touch with the world via social media once again, and his purpose was to speak out against mind control ... and oddly, social media.

Ye returned to Twitter Saturday afternoon after going dark last week, and live streamed himself from Africa, talking to the camera while constantly rubbing his forehead ... appearing to be deep in thought and focused on his words.

But ... as he even admits ... he also seems sleep deprived.

Kanye captioned his vid "Mind control," and started off by railing at social media and discussing how he's hurt by people trying to tell him what to do. He says it feels like they are trying to touch his brain ... and he hates it.

He adds to his social media bashing by saying it told us all Hillary Clinton was going to win the presidency, and claims social media falsely wants you to believe people don't like him when in fact ... "Everybody loves Ye!!"

There's more -- a lot more -- including Kanye declaring "I am the best living recording artist," boasting about his IQ and assuring us all he's not crazy ... he just needs some sleep.

Get some sleep, Kanye.

DJ Khaled Son's 2nd Bday Party's a Home Run ... Carnival at Marlins Park!!!

Published | Updated

DJ Khaled could have just reserved a section at Chuck E. Cheese's for his son's 2nd birthday party, but you know he's gotta be the best ... so he threw a bash at Major League Baseball field instead.

Khaled's son, Asahd, will turn 2 next week ... but dad got the celebrating started early by hosting a carnival in his honor Saturday at Marlins Park in Miami. The stadium was available because ... the Marlins clearly aren't playing October baseball these days.

Among the attractions at the party are a carousel, a chair swing ride ... and a frickin' Ferris wheel. Asahd was gifted his own set of baller wheels, too ... a red mini LaFerrari from CYBEX and TOT Living by Haute Living.

The bday bash also served as the launch for Khaled's We the Best Foundation to help kids worldwide, and thousands were donated to his organization at the event ... including $100k from Derek Jeter and the Marlins!

Pretty impressive for Khaled to one-up Asahd's first birthday party ... where Diddy performed at LIV nightclub.

Can't wait to see what he's got in store for when the kid turns 3.
