Check out the hilarious clip ... she's clearly struggling to walk up the handful of steps to the stage at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas to accept her award ... utilizing two men in suits to give her a hand.

Even then, she's barely making any progress ... and even resorts to hopping up the steps.

The Grammy-nominated singer made it crystal clear while speaking to Variety ahead of the big event -- she’s sticking by her controversial stance, noting ... "If people are blowing up and being murdered at mass rates … it should be as easy as breathing to say, 'Hey, this shouldn’t be happening.'''

American actress Jashaun St. John was just a teenager when she rose to fame playing Blue -- the sensitive and quiet girl from New Mexico, traveling with her bestie -- in the 2015 adventure/drama film "The Short History Of The Long Road."

Jashaun shared the big screen with Sabrina Carpenter as the self-sufficient teen who lives in a van, searching for her mother, Nola, Steven Ogg as Nola's penny-pinching father who dies, Clint, and Danny Trejo as the mechanic shop owner who takes Nola under his wing, Miguel.

In 2021, St. John was in Marvel's "Eternals" with Angelina Jolie.

Diddy’s legal team is gunning to blow up a major moment from Kid Cudi’s testimony -- asking the judge to strike everything about the disgraced rapper’s Porsche firebombing … claiming it’s all based on suspicion, not proof.

TMZ has obtained the legal docs filed in Diddy’s criminal case -- where his lawyers argue Cudi’s claims about Diddy’s alleged involvement in his 2012 car explosion are nothing but opinion and shouldn’t be allowed in court. In short ... they’re saying Cudi thinks Diddy did it, but there’s no hard evidence, no confession, no receipts.

As we reported, KC told the court last week he 'knew' Diddy had something to do with the Molotov cocktail attack on his Porsche after ending things with Cassie -- but admitted there were no witnesses, fingerprints, or proof linking Diddy to the arson.

He continued ... "In the world we live in, we don't have a lot of time to lose ... This is all a bit of nonsense."

Those French have a temper ... even at the highest level, because the country Prez got smacked right in the noggin by his wife, and it's become something of a scandal.

Brigitte isn't fully seen by the AP photog as her arms appear and she puts her hands on her hubby.

As he was escorted down the stairs, Tully says his robe came undone, so cops spared him the embarrassment and bundled him back up.
