Future to Baby Future Here's a Rolex for Your 5th Bday, Son Uhhh ... Thanks, Dad?!?
Future gave his son, Baby Future, a brand new Rolex for his 5th birthday -- and now, he's kinda getting dragged for it online over the kid's reaction ... which might be a tad harsh.
The Atlanta rapper posted a ton of photos and videos of the epic superhero-themed bash he threw for his and Ciara's son Saturday, which was basically a child's dream come true.
One of the clips Future threw up showed BF opening the box to a Rolex ... which seemed to leave the young tyke somewhat underwhelmed as he responded with a half-hearted "Thanks." It's a pretty hilarious reaction, but folks are really letting Future have it.
The general reaction to papa's gift -- the kid's 5 ... what's he gonna do with a Rolex??? He wants toys, man!!! Not sure if that's totally accurate, seeing how Baby Future was rocking it.

Also worth pointing out ... DJ Khaled gifted his own son -- who was only A YEAR OLD at the time -- a $100k, diamond-studded watch that he wouldn't be able to wear for years to come. DJK didn't face nearly half the backlash for that ... so people should really cut Future a break here. At least his kid can actually put the watch on, and he looks great with it too.
Meanwhile, Ciara and Russell Wilson appeared to throw a birthday party of their own for young Future around the same time frame -- which also looked pretty sweet on camera.
Gotta say, the dueling birthday parties reminds us of Blac Chyna and Tyga's competing birthday bashes for little King once upon a time. It's a win-win for the kid in either case, really. Double the presents and cake ... and a whole lot of fun.
Happy birthday, BF!!!

Blac Chyna Makes Up with Her Ma, Tokyo Toni ... Blood IS Thicker Than Water!!!
Blac Chyna and her mother are tight again -- and their reunion in Atlanta was heartfelt and touching, to say the least.
BC gave her mom, Tokyo Toni, a big hug Saturday night at the Sparkles Skating Ring, where it appears Chyna was throwing some kind of event. Check out their embrace on the red carpet -- you can tell Chyna is genuinely surprised to see Toni there ... but ecstatic too.
They even kept the love fest going once inside, with Chyna posting a video of them hugging it out on a felted bench.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
When we asked Toni what message she had for Chyna in light of their reconciliation, she told a thing or two about family ... and how that bond always trumps everything else.
You'll recall ... Toni criticized Blac Chyna's parenting a few months ago with regards to how she was raising Dream, saying Rob Kardashian should get full custody until Chyna got it together. Chyna fired back, basically telling her ma to mind her own damn business.
Rob and Chyna settled their custody battle soon after that though, and everything seems to have been pretty smooth in Chyna's life since. Well, kinda ... still a couple bumps here and there.
But, as far she and her mama bear go, they're two peas in a pod now, it seems.

Kylie Jenner My Pad's Officially Jordyn Woods-Less
Kylie Jenner and her ex-bestie have a little more closure in their relationship ... because Jordyn Woods' belongings are no longer in her guest house.
Sources close to Kylie tell TMZ ... Jordyn came by and picked up her stuff about a week and a half ago, months after her hookup with Khloe's baby daddy, Tristan Thompson, got her ex-communicated from the Kardashian family.
We're told the reason it took so long is that Kylie was super chill about the situation ... but somebody else in the family wasn't. Our sources say that the person -- we're not allowed to say who -- recently noticed Jordyn's stuff was still there and thought it was ridiculous and disrespectful ... like she was using Kylie's pad for storage.
Kylie decided to get Jordyn to get her stuff out quickly after that ... to keep the peace in her fam.
We're told Kylie wasn't home when Jordyn came over, but the housekeeper let her in and there were no issues. As we've told you, the 2 have remained amicable throughout the ordeal even though they're not as close as they used to be. Our sources say they still text each other on occasion, as well.
Jordyn and her mom -- especially her mom -- have even come out and praised Kylie and others in the fam and said they have love for everyone.

EXCLUSIVE
- 13.8K shares
DaBaby's security team is in big trouble because the man they viciously beat Friday night could die ... according to his mother.
The victim -- whose performing name in Don Trag -- is currently in the hospital and in a coma, according to his mother. The mother tells us, her son was actually performing in Lawrence, Massachusetts the night he was beaten. Don Trag's brother, who's also a rapper, says all Don Trag wanted was to take a photo with DaBaby when his security went nuts on him with a ferocious pounding.
Don Trag's brother says he has significant brain and neck swelling and "is not doing well." His mom says things are even more ominous. She says 22-year-old Don Trag was at her home outside Boston Saturday -- hours after the attack -- when he collapsed.
As we reported, Don Trag had been taken to the hospital right after the attack, but released and went to his mom's home.
As we reported, the incident went down at Centro Nightclub, just before DaBaby was about to take the stage. Our DaBaby sources told us Don Trag got aggressive and that's when his security stepped in. DaBaby looked on as Don Trag got thrashed.
Police showed up after the attack, but none of the witnesses wanted to cooperate.
Don Trag's mom says of the attackers, "These people are animals." The mom says they've already been in touch with a lawyer.

MMA Star Sage Northcutt Surgery for 8 Fractures ... After MMA Knockout
Sage Northcutt was destroyed way more than anyone thought after a 29-second, first-round knockout in his ONE Championship debut -- turns out he suffered 8 fractures and was in surgery for 9 hours to repair the damage.
Northcutt posted a horrific pic of the aftermath ... hooked up to all sorts of stuff post-op in the hospital.
Sage's debut was a disaster ... the 23-year-old took a devastating punch at the hands of Cosmo Alexandre to the face, sending him to the canvas with a thunderous face plant. Clearly, the punch did damage, but the face plant may have exacerbated things.
He posted the hospital pic, saying, "Fresh out of surgery ... I had 8 fractures and a nine hour intense operation. Feeling blessed for the amazing care and all the support from ONE championship, my family/friends and fans!"
It's surprising ... because Sage got up under his own power and stood there as the ref raised Alexandre's hand and declared him the winner.
Sage was cut from the UFC after a lackluster run ... UFC honcho Dana White said Northcutt just didn't cut muster and needed to work on his game.
No word -- obviously -- on Sage's future ... whether or when he'll return to ONE championship.

SNL's Leslie Jones Message to Alabama Over Abortion Ban ... You Can Kiss My Entire Ass!!!
Leslie Jones went in for the kill on the 'SNL' season finale, annihilating the men in the Alabama State Legislature over the new law that will virtually ban all abortions.
Jones first appeared in a red cloak and white bonnet -- ala 'Handmaid's Tale' -- the message, of course, is that women were enslaved into having children.
She lost the garb and revealed a t-shirt with an arrow pointing south, and then she launched.
As you know, 9 states -- Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio and Utah -- have all recently passed similar laws -- some of which outlaw abortion even for incest and rape. The endgame is clearly taking the issue up with the U.S. Supreme Court, targeting Roe vs. Wade.
It's already become an issue in the 2020 Presidential campaign, with Vice President Pence giving his thumbs up to the new laws. It may become the central issue in the race as things heat up.

Britney Spears I'm Just Livin' My Life
Britney Spears is clearly trying to make it clear ... she's living her life.
Brit and BF Sam Ashgari went for some grub Saturday night at Lure Fish House in Westlake Village, near her home.
She looks great and seems happy ... at least from the pic.
TMZ broke the story, despite the social media cry to "Free Britney," her conservatorship is biz as usual. She interacts with her dad, conservator Jamie Spears, multiple times a day. She has freedom to do as she wishes, with an asterisk. Her dad makes sure security follows his daughter wherever she goes, to make sure she doesn't cross the line ... e.g., if she went to a liquor store, security would step in.
And, as we reported, smart phones are off limits to Brit, because her dad doesn't want people contacting her who might have ulterior motives.
Britney also said she'll perform again. As we reported, her longtime manager, Larry Rudolph, said he hasn't heard from her in months and it's Britney's decision when, if ever, she'll return to the stage.
All that said, she looks good.

DJ Diablo, Lil Xan DJ Says He's Okay After Suicide Scare ... Xan Totally Wasted
Diablo seems to have rebounded in a big way ... after his involuntary psych hold and an apparent suicide attempt.
We got the DJ/producer in West Hollywood Saturday night outside Delilah, and he was super introspective about the downward spiral he had experienced just weeks before, when he posted an alarming note on Instagram, saying, "I'm gonna end it tonight. Goodbye everyone."
Diablo was placed on a 5150 hold after friends called the cops to rush over and help him. He now says one of his missions is to spread awareness about mental illness, and how to take steps to keep it in check.
Diablo was at the club with Lil Xan, who was clearly wasted as they made their exit.
And, Diablo gives a shout out to Paris Hilton, who helped him see the light after plunging into darkness. He also expresses empathy for Britney Spears.

Honey Boo Boo Living with Big Sis While Mama June Hangs with BF
Mama June's youngest daughter, 13-year-old Alana -- aka Honey Boo Boo -- has been forced to move in with her sister ... while June lives the casino life with her felon boyfriend.
Sources close to June tell us 19-year-old Pumpkin (gov't name, Lauryn), is now serving as a de facto guardian to Honey Boo Boo. We're told HBB's been living with Pumpkin for several months and helps look after Lauryn's 1-year-old daughter, Ella.
Family sources tell us, Alana and June's other daughters understand their mom is going through a tough time ... and want to keep their distance from her and the "drama."
We're told June rarely sees her family these days.
TMZ broke the story ... cops were called to a gas station in Alabama back in March after a domestic dispute between June and her boyfriend Geno Doak. According to the report, Doak threatened to kill June during the argument.
When cops arrived they busted June for possession of crack cocaine.
APRIL 2019
June was ordered to stay away from Doak by a judge, but she's clearly ignoring that ... shacking up with him at an Alabama casino and routinely hitting the slots.
June's family has urged her to get away from Doak -- as they feel he's a bad influence -- but our sources say their pleas have fallen on deaf ears.

'Star Wars' Blueprints for Original Vehicles Hit Auction Block
George Lucas might wanna pay close attention to this -- original design blueprints for 3 major vehicles from his 1977 sci-fi classic are up for auction, and we know he's got a spot for 'em.
The folks over at RR Auction are handling the "Hollywood Auction" bids featuring blueprints for the iconic vehicles in "Star Wars: Episode IV -- A New Hope." First up ... Luke Skywalker's X-34 Landspeeder.
The blueprint features the first design for the desert cruiser used by the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
There's also the super famous TIE fighter, the Imperial fleet's main ride. If you're more of a Rebel Alliance type ... they've got the Y-wing starfighter blueprint.
BTW ... the designs are the work of Steve Gawley, a model builder who worked on the film. Dude is super famous -- he went on to earn an Oscar nom for Best Visual Effects on "Back to the Future Part II."
The 'Star Wars' blueprints are pretty amazing, and super fans can place bids now. The auction ends May 23 ... long before Lucas' $1 billion museum in L.A. is completed.

Gucci Mane Postpones Canadian Tour ... I Wanna Do Better!!!
Gucci Mane is not goin' up North for a series of concerts after all ... at least not for a few more months.
The rapper's postponed his 'Live in Canada' tour -- which had 10 stops scheduled in May -- because he wants to bring a bigger and better show to his fans than he had in the bag ... according to his rep.
We're told Gucci and the promotion company he's working with are planning for early September to make up the shows, and he'll be more equipped to give his fans what they deserve ... because he's currently working on a new album.
Our sources say the September tour will still include stops in the big Canadian cities -- like Ottawa, Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver -- and will hopefully add Toronto as well ... which wasn't scheduled in May.
We broke the story ... the rapper had to obtain a temporary resident permit to enter Canada for his tour, which was no small feat, considering his long rap sheet and the country's tough stance on folks with prior convictions.
Gucci made it happen though, and his rep says his paperwork is still in good order and will be through September ... so he won't have to worry about it when it's time to take the stage.
As for the 10 venues where Gucci was supposed to perform this month ... tickets are being refunded due to the postponement.

Blac Chyna Plans to Sue Hairdresser ... She Pulled a Jussie!!!
Blac Chyna insists she was the victim, not the aggressor, in an altercation with her hairdresser -- which means exactly what you think it does ... Chyna's gearing up to sue her ass.
Sources close to BC tell TMZ ... her team has spoken to detectives about last weekend's hairdresser brouhaha and told authorities the woman "pulled a Jussie Smollett" by filing a false police report.
We're told BC's adamant she was the victim of an attack and not the other way around. She claims she suffered damage to her home and her Rolls-Royce when the hairdresser hurled soda cans. The house damage is a window ledge, we're told -- and the car damage is a banged-up bumper.
Might sound like much, but remember ...we're talking about a Rolls.
Chyna also denies pulling a knife during the incident, and as we've told you ... there's no video evidence so far showing she wielded a weapon.
Our sources say once Chyna is back from NYC -- where she's been hanging out with Wendy Williams -- she plans on getting with her legal team and filing a lawsuit against the hairdresser. She also has an appointment to get an estimate on the damage to her car and home.
As we reported ... Chyna is listed as a suspect in the police report for assault with a deadly weapon, and because her 6-year-old son, King, was at the house during the fracas, the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services got involved.
The case has yet to be turned over to prosecutors.

Dwayne Bowe Chiefs 'Pulling For' Tyreek Hill ... Amid Child Abuse Probe
Tyreek Hill's teammates still have his back and are still pulling for him to rejoin the team ... so says Dwayne Bowe, who tells TMZ Sports he heard that straight from Chiefs players last week.
"When I talk to guys on the team, they're still rooting for him," the ex-Kansas City wideout says ... "They're pulling for him."
As we previously reported ... Hill's been indefinitely banished from the Chiefs until an investigation into child abuse allegations finishes up in Missouri.
Bowe says both he AND current Chiefs players are still in Hill's corner for now ... and claims the only way they're going to change their mind is when all the facts come out about the case.
"It's all he said, she said until the final word is out," Bowe tells us.
In the meantime, Bowe is vouching for Tyreek, saying, "He's a good guy. I've met him. I really don't believe all the things I hear on the internet and in the news."
As for how the whole drama is impacting the current team ... Bowe says he doesn't see it affecting K.C. much -- he tells us the team looked GREAT when he was out at practice last week.

'Teen Mom' Star Kailyn Lowry We'll Be Fine Without Jenelle But Ratings Will Miss Her
Jenelle Evans was a huge draw for the 'Teen Mom' series, but the show can go without her and do just as well -- so says JE's former costar, Kailyn Lowry.
We got Kailyn at the Crosby Street Hotel Saturday in NYC, where she was hanging out with another reality TV star, Lindsie Chrisley. Our camera guy asked if Kailyn thought Jenelle being fired from 'Teen Mom' would hurt or help the show all things considered.
Check out Kailyn's answer -- she acknowledges Jenelle's value as a cast member, but also seems to be taking a slight shot by saying she was dragging the show's reputation down and that replacing her was the right move.
Lindsie chimes in on that sentiment too, saying there's a major difference between day-to-day drama that'd play well for TV ... and real-life criminal activity, which she seems to insinuate David Eason is guilty of by killing the family dog.
The aftermath of that decision has been devastating for Jenelle and her family -- not only was she booted from the show, but her kids have been removed from her custody under a judge's order.
She and David were just in court Thursday to fight to get the kids back, but it doesn't appear they've been returned at this point.
As to the idea of Kailyn herself assuming guardianship over Jenelle and David's 2-year-old daughter, Ensley ... well, she's got some thoughts on that too.
