Celebrity Feuds

Tom Sandoval says he didn't mean to sue his ex, Ariana Madix, and is now withdrawing his lawsuit ... putting the blame on one of his lawyers.

Cardi B had time for Joe Budden today and she cleaned the podcaster's clock -- metaphorically speaking -- for discussing her stalled album one too many times.

To his credit, Offset was the first to push for Cardi to release the album this year ... it's been too long!!!

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, a judge ruled Billy Ray's estranged wife can no longer use his American Express business account, or any other credit card account he or his business owns.

A source close to Firerose claims to us Billy spent the first part of this whole ordeal accusing her of fraud, which was found to be untrue. One of the many falsehoods he’s put out there that one can now point back to and clearly see were lies.

Orlando Bloom's getting an Italian tan ... soaking up rays in Sardiania without his fiancée Katy Perry -- who's on the island with him but skipped out on the surf and sun.

Lionel Messi's Argentina squad ruthlessly trolled the hell outta Drake on Tuesday ... evoking his nemesis Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" diss track after he bet against them in the Copa America semifinals.

Drake shared his lucrative wager on social media prior to the match ... throwing $300K on his home country Canada to beat the heavy favorites -- which would've resulted in a $2.88 MILLION payout.

Things went south for the North in the contest, though ... as Messi and Julian Alvarez each found the back of the net to get the 2-0 win and advance to the final.

Drake's White Party appearance could've gotten real awkward given his beef with Kendrick Lamar ... but, we're told the DJs played it safe -- staying far from K. Dot's discography.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... everyone who hopped up to the turntables at Michael Rubin's famous Hamptons soirée passed on playing anything by Kendrick.

And the DJs weren't the only Drake-friendly folks in attendance BTW ... 'cause we're told Lil Wayne, Travis Scott and Quavo also pulled up to the event -- and, they're all on good terms with Drizzy.

Kendrick Lamar rang in the 4th of July by dropping his new music video for his ever-popular Drake diss track "Not Like Us."

The vid is also heavy with owl imagery, a clear nod to the OVO emblem of Drake's lifestyle brand ... with Kendrick sporting a live one on his arm at one point, a caged owl, and Lamar taking whacks at a giant piñata shaped like the hooter ... while “no OVHoes were harmed during the making of this video" flashed on the screen.

Kesha is back in business, releasing her first song since her legal war with Dr. Luke came to an end, and she's goin' back to her party-girl roots.
