Sophie Turner & Joe Jonas Own a Piece of the Wedding Ring Pop Wrapper Hits eBay

Published | Updated

Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas exchanged ring pops as wedding bands when they got hitched in Vegas ... and now the wrapper from Sophie's sweet bling is up for auction.

Jesse Grice, the Reverend Elvis who officiated the wedding, tells TMZ he found the wrapper from Sophie's ring pop and he's already posted it on eBay, and the bidding starts at ... a whopping 10 bucks!

The eBay listing is hilarious ... the description reads, "Joe Jonas ORIGINAL AUTHENTIC REAL WEDDING RING WRAPPER used by him in Las Vegas." We think it's decent condition too ... based on this -- "wrapper is in very good but slightly used wrapper on foil like material."

Jesse tells us he'll take whatever he can get for the one-of-a-kind piece of Sophie and Joe memorabilia ... but he's holding out hope the bidding reaches $1,000.

GETTIN' HITCHED

As you know ... Joe and Sophie tied the knot at the Little White Wedding Chapel in Vegas Wednesday night after the Billboard Music Awards. Nick and Kevin Jonas were Joe's groomsmen, Diplo and Khalid were celeb witnesses and country duo Dan + Shay sang Sophie down the aisle.

Joe and Sophie's nuptials were good for biz ... Jesse tells us the chapel's already seen an influx of tourists coming to take pics.

Screw a photo ... Sophie's ring pop wrapper is way cooler!

Rick Fox I'd Stay With Team Echo Fox If Racist Investor Leaves

TAKING A STAND

Rick Fox tells TMZ Sports he's not 100% certain about leaving his wildly successful Esports franchise -- saying he'd stick with Team Echo Fox if they sever ties with a racist investor.

Earlier this week, Team Echo Fox confirmed a minority investor in the Esports franchise used racist language both verbally and in emails. Rick Fox claims he was personally subjected to the racist language.

There were reports Fox -- who founded (and is the face of) Team Echo Fox was leaving the franchise because of that investor.

But, when we spoke with Fox in L.A., the ex-NBA star told us his relationship with T.E.F. could be salvaged ... if the franchise 86s the racist investor from the business.

"I am not looking to go anywhere, but I will not stay in business with a racist," Fox says ... "I just won't."

Fox praised his other business partners, investors, sponsors and players -- but he's drawn a clear line in the sand and now it's up to the T.E.F. to decide what to do.

The issue for Echo Fox ... as Rick points out, the racist investor has rights too.

"The unfortunate thing is being a racist in America is not illegal, unfortunately. He has his own economic interests and his own rights. So, no one is going to trample on his rights."

The stakes are high for Fox -- he's spent years and tons of his own money building Echo Fox into a major force in the Esports world. He's not just a name attached to the team, he's been in the trenches from the beginning helping to build T.E.F. from the ground up.

Rick ended with a simple and direct message for the investor -- "Get help."

Jenelle Evans' Husband David Eason Threatens Photog in Dog Killing

Published | Updated

David Eason, Jenelle Evans husband, who allegedly killed their family dog with a shotgun, made it clear to a photog in court Friday ... stay clear of him, or else.

Eason was in a North Carolina courtroom because he owed $5,187 in back child support. He had a deadline of Friday to pay up or possibly be held in contempt and go to jail. He showed up empty-handed, but the judge gave him a reprieve ... to come up with the money in the next few hours.

Eason left court, and a photog/reporter for WSFX tried asking him about killing his dog, but he wasn't having it and warned, "Don't get in my face, bro. I promise you don't want to do that."

Eason came back a short time later and paid the money.

He owed the money to Olivia Leedham, the mother of his 5-year-old son. Leedham claimed back in 2013, when she was 8 months pregnant he shoved her and also left her in the middle of the road when she was 7 months pregnant.

As for the dog ... we're told he was irate after the French Bulldog nipped at his daughter after she got in the dog's face ... beat the animal, and then shot it to death.

Law enforcement tells us ... Eason is now under criminal investigation for animal cruelty.

Post Malone Smoke 'Em if I Got 'Em ... And I Do, My Own Weed Biz!!!

Published | Updated

Post Malone has another reason to make you say "wow" ... he's getting into the marijuana business, with his very own weed venture set to officially launch on his birthday!!!

Sources close to the Post tell TMZ ... he's launching a chronic company he's dubbed Shaboink, and it's specializing in a line of flower, pre-roll joints and vaporizers.

The company debuted at the annual cannabis trade show, Hall of Flowers, at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds in Santa Rosa, CA ... but we're told Shaboink products will officially roll out in dispensaries across the state on July 4, Post's 24th bday.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Post's biz will produce THC and CBD products, as well as some dank accessories. Y'know ... rolling papers, grinders, hats and stickers. Hemper manufactured the packaging and pre-rolled cones for the brand.

As for the name Shaboink ... we're told it's a word Posts been saying for years. It's also a slang term for "the act of two people fornicating in a wild spontaneous fashion." We're guessing Post likes to shaboink with a side of sativa.

YFN Lucci Simple Solution for Offset ... Just Show Some Love!!!

Published | Updated

YFN Lucci's not a lawyer, but he has some legal advice for fellow Atlanta rapper Offset on how to handle that felony arrest warrant.

We got YFN leaving Icebox Diamonds & Watches in the ATL Thursday -- says he just dropped $500k in there, and was NOT shy about showing off his bling ... or his whip.

When we brought up Offset's case -- for allegedly smashing a fan's $800 phone -- YFN said it's hard for him to relate because he always shows his fans love and respect. Watch the clip ... he ripped a page out of his own playbook and handed it to the Migos rapper.

Lucci makes it clear he doesn't think Offset deserves a felony warrant for a mere slap of a phone, but he still needs to rectify the situation. The fan told us he just wants Offset to pay for his broken phone and not be arrested ... so YFN might be on to something.

However, we broke the story ... Offset's insisting he didn't damage Junior's phone and believes he's now being exploited over the altercation.

Jenelle Evans' Husband David Could Be Jailed Over Child Support ... Dog Killing Under Investigation

Published | Updated

David Eason doesn't just abuse and kill helpless animals -- he's also allegedly abused his baby mama and fell way behind on child support payments ... and if he hasn't paid by today he could end up in jail.

Eason is currently under criminal investigation for animal cruelty. As we reported, earlier this week he savagely beat and then shot his French Bulldog which barely nipped at his 2-year-old daughter's face. The nip was so minor it didn't draw blood or even puncture the skin. We're told David repeatedly slammed the dog on the back porch before taking it to the backyard and killing it with a shotgun.

But, his troubles don't end there. Eason briefly dated a woman named Olivia Leedham in 2013 and the two had a son together. Leedham went to court, claiming Eason shoved her when she was 8 months pregnant and left her in the middle of the road at night when she was 7 months pregnant.

The two have been in a nasty custody battle for years ... and we've learned he's fallen thousands of dollars behind in child support. His deadline for paying it is today, and if he hasn't anted up he could end up in jail.

Animal Control officers were unable to talk with Eason during their visit Thursday because the family's pit bull was on his front porch and "No Trespassing" signs were posted on the property. Animal Control officers didn't feel it was safe to enter so they asked the Sheriff's Department to figure out the next move.

Usher Done Deal on $20 Mil Herpes Suit ... Signs of Settlement

Published | Updated

Usher's put that $20 million herpes lawsuit with Laura Helm behind him -- the case has been dismissed again, but this time it looks like they reached a settlement.

According to court docs, Laura filed to dismiss her suit earlier this week because she and Usher have "reached an amicable resolution." As to how much that resolution cost Usher -- neither side will say.

We reached out to attorneys for both sides, and they would only repeat that word ... "amicable." The dismissal was filed with prejudice ... meaning it can't be refiled, and that's typically done when there's been a financial settlement.

You'll recall, Helm sued the singer back in 2017 ... claiming he had exposed her to the virus when they had unprotected sex. She initially sued for $10 million, then upped it to $20 mil for emotional harm and punitive damages.

She filed to dismiss the case a few months later, for technical reasons, then refiled it in 2018 ... but now it's case closed.

Floyd Mayweather Jewelry Store Dispute Over Pricey Stone ... Cops Called

Published | Updated

A routine jewelry shopping spree turned into high drama for Floyd Mayweather on Thursday -- when things got heated with a store owner over a VERY expensive stone and cops were called, TMZ Sports has learned.

We're told Floyd was shopping at the Diamond Club fine jewelry shop inside the Seybold Building when Mayweather zeroed in a stone.

Our sources tell us ... a verbal altercation broke out between Mayweather and the shop owner -- and things got so intense, someone inside the shop called police.

By the time cops arrived, we're told Mayweather had already left the shop.

We reached out to Mayweather and the shop owner -- but everyone is being VERY tight-lipped about the situation.

We also contacted Miami PD -- and a rep would only confirm that cops responded to the shop regarding an issue involving a "high profile celebrity" ... but wouldn't get into specifics.

Unclear if cops are investigating or if the matter is considered closed.

Remember, Mayweather spends MILLIONS of dollars at jewelry stores all over the world -- so you'd think Floyd showing up at your shop would be like hitting the lottery.

But, that's clearly not what happened here.

Paris Hilton & Kim Kardashian Team Up for 'Best Friend's Ass' Vid ... 'Britney' There Too!!!

Published | Updated

Everything's come full circle for Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian -- the former besties have solidified their BFF status once again ... thanks to their asses.

Kim was spotted Thursday outside Hollywood's Nightingale Plaza club, glammed up alongside Paris on the set of what looks to be the music video shoot for Hilton's new single with Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, "Best Friend's Ass."

Paris and Kim have both teased a secret project together on social media ... and now all signs point to it being this music vid.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Along with Kim, Paris was joined by "RuPaul's Drag Race" star and Britney Spears impersonator, Derrick Barry, who was decked out in full "I'm a Slave 4 U" attire.

There were also more drag queens, shirtless hunks and snakes on set ... lots of snakes.

The irony of Paris' new song title is strong. If you'll recall ... when she and Kim had their falling out more than a decade ago, she said she would not want a butt like the famous Kardashian, adding ... "It's gross! It reminds me of cottage cheese inside a big trash bag."

Water under the bridge, apparently. Can't wait to see the music vid!

Lamar Odom Still Fighting Addiction ... But I'm Winning

Published | Updated

Lamar Odom says he still battles the addictions that almost took his life, but says he's winning the war, and plans to fight for as long as it takes.

"Getting high is not on my agenda."

We talked to Lamar at LAX Thursday morning, just hours after he officially joined the "Enemies" team in Ice Cube's BIG3 league ... marking his return to pro competition against NBA level opponents.

Odom very candidly and bravely opened up to our guy not only about his new home in the BIG3, but about his state mind ... and most notably, his fight to stay sober.

"When you're an addict, that's something you live with forever, bro. You don't just put that behind you."

As for the BIG3, Lamar says he agrees with Cube -- who said he expects Odom will be the league's comeback player of the year.

"Hopefully I get nominated for an ESPY."

The fact that Odom is alive at all is A MIRACLE, the man survived 12 strokes and 6 heart attacks when he overdosed in 2015, and most doctors thought his chances of a full recovery were slim to none.

By that standard, dude is already the best comeback story (sorry, Soulja Boy).

'Storage Wars' Star Barry Weiss Difficult Road Ahead After Motorcycle Crash

Published | Updated

Barry Weiss is being put through the wringer following his nasty motorcycle accident, and he has more obstacles ahead on his road to recovery.

Sources close to the "Storage Wars" star tell TMZ ... he's had to undergo multiple surgeries since the crash last week -- one on his back and one on his femur. We're told more procedures will follow.

Despite the difficulties, our sources say Barry's in stable condition and alert ... and he's eager to get out of a hospital bed and go home.

We've also obtained a 911 call of the incident from the driver of the car that was hit by Barry's chopper. She tells the operator she got hit from behind, and someone was tending to him on the street.

We broke the story ... Barry and his friend were riding bikes last Wednesday in the Los Feliz area of L.A. when a car allegedly pulled out in front of them from a parking space. Barry and his friend both slammed into the back of it and went down, but Weiss got the worst of it.

We're told drugs or alcohol were not a factor in the accident.

Get well soon, Barry!!!

Tamra Judge Crotch-ing It Like It's Hot in Miami!!!

Published | Updated

Tamra Judge wasn't wearing apple bottom jeans or boots with the fur ... but the club was most definitely looking at her, 'cause her crotch was exposed.

The "Real Housewives of Orange County" star hit up E11EVEN Miami earlier this week to celebrate Vicki Gunvalson's engagement and Shannon Beador's recent divorce. We're told the entire cast tore it up for the double celebration.

But, ya gotta check out the vid ... Tamra got on stage and twerked her ass off to Flo Rida's "Low," maybe a little too much 'cause Shannon had to step in and pull down her dress to avoid exposing her crotch.

Oops.

We've got pics too ... Vicki and Shannon wore "Bride to Be" and "Just Divorced" sashes to commemorate the occasion. We're told they all showed up late Tuesday night around midnight and left the club around 4 AM. They posted up at a VIP table and guzzled vodka and champagne.

BTW ... cameras were rolling for the show, so get ready to see this in an upcoming episode.

Kodak Black Picks Up Tab on 7,600 Notebooks ... It's for the Kids!!!

Published | Updated

Kodak Black's trying hard to get back in karma's good graces ... by doling out cash for kids in need.

We're told the rapper heard about a teen's quest to get a notebook in the hands of all 7,600 students in the Cleburne Independent School District in Texas. 14-year-old Paige Cook had a successful first campaign last year ... collecting 40k pencils.

Paige's mom, Angel, tells TMZ ... her daughter upped her game this year with the notebooks AND 60k pencils. But, with such an ambitious goal, it was clear she was gonna need some help. Enter, Kodak.

Bradford Cohen, Kodak's attorney, tells us the rapper picked up the tab -- a cool $12,500 -- for the notebooks. The items will benefit a school district where a majority of its students come from low-income communities.

Kodak's no stranger to taking on a good cause ... he's played Santa before and donated cash for early childhood education. At the time, he said he was focused on making a positive impact.

But, as we've reported ... Kodak's public image has taken hit after hit ... from beefing with Lil Wayne and disrespecting Lauren London to his border bust, which triggered a U.S. Attorney investigation.
