NEVER ILLUMINATI, ALWAYS IL-LUDA-NATILudacris and his wife Eudoxie also fell victim to the wrath of Katt Williams' viral "Club Shay Shay" interview, but in a fiery freestyle response ... Luda's telling Katt to get back because he doesn't know him like that!!!
The "Fast & Furious" star doesn't do much rapping these days, but returned to the studio Thursday night to bust out a freestyle over Kanye West's classic "Devil in a New Dress" instrumental -- clearly aimed at Katt's noggin.

COMING FOR LUDACRISDuring his 3-hour sit-down with Shannon Sharpe, Katt swore Luda had joined the Illuminati after selling his soul to the "Fast & Furious" franchise in exchange for $200 million.
Katt also hinted Luda was stripped of his Blackness and sent an insane shot at Luda's spouse for being a "light-skinned ugly-face wife" -- a wild insult, especially considering Luda collaborated with Katt on his 2004 hit single "Pimpin' All Over the World."
Luda kicked off his anti-Katt flow shouting out Snoop Dogg and then slyly responding to Katt's disses and clarifying his sexuality ... "They throwing shade ‘cause n****s could never take my shine ... Never been Illuminati, only Ill-Luda-nati/And I only left with bitches when coming from any party."
The freestyle ended with an RIP to "2 Fast Too Furious" director John Singleton and a final warning to Katt ... "Afro with the sideburns, yeah that’s my signature/Addiction’s on the rise, comedians check your temperature.”

— Kevin Hart (@KevinHart4real) January 4, 2024 @KevinHart4realKatt essentially labeled Kevin the "Jussie Smollett of comedy" -- a charlatan who was planted in the movie industry after arriving in Los Angeles from Philly without any real buzz, and claims to have turned down plenty of lowbrow roles that Kevin happily scooped up.
Kevin and Katt have been at odds for years -- Kevin claimed Katt flamed out on drugs during a 2015 Breakfast Club interview, to which Katt recently told Shannon Sharpe he's never done a hard drug in his life.
Not to be outdone, Michael Blackson didn't let Katt slide for accusing him of using a fake African accent throughout his career ... but still gave him his props at the end of the day.
According to Mike, Katt ranks as the #4th best comedian alive (he ranked himself at #10) but thinks his 2005 glory years are long behind him, Mike claims he saw Katt get heckled in his Cincinnati hometown before ... a terrible look for a legend.

Katt Williams Rips Steve Harvey, Rickey Smiley, More Comedians ... All Lies Will Be Exposed!!!
1/3/2024 12:01 PM PT
TMZ/Getty CompositeKatt Williams came on Shannon Sharpe's "Club Shay Shay" with guns blazing ... and taking shots at Steve Harvey, Cedric The Entertainer, Rickey Smiley and more rivals.
Katt ripped several of his famous contemporaries in what he called a 2024 reckoning ... starting with his "Next Friday" costar Rickey Smiley for claiming their roles in the film were reversed before filming began when he appeared on "CSS" last year.
Katt says not only was he always cast as "Money Mike," he was responsible for rewriting the character's scene to prevent an on-screen rape with Terry Crews' character "Damon."
After the "Friday After Next" rift, Katt put a clause in his contract that only allowed Rickey to appear in films with him where he was wearing a dress because Katt deemed that's the depth of his acting skills ... and 2008's "First Sunday" featured just that -- Rickey starring as church lady "Bernice Jenkins."
Ced also got thrashed for claiming Katt stole jokes from him during his "CSS" episode, and Katt didn't hold back -- he painted Ced as talentless for having "Entertainer" in his name without being able to sing, dance or write his own jokes. Katt noted Ced's stand-up specials suck so bad, there's no demand for them on Netflix or Tubi.
Ced's "Live from the Ville" from 2016 is indeed on Netflix, but Katt claims the real joke-stealer is Steve Harvey -- for undercutting Mark Curry's "Hangin' With Mr. Cooper" sitcom back in the day with his "The Steve Harvey Show" ... both premises revolved around the comedians starring as high school teachers -- but Mark's series came out 4 years earlier.
Katt accused all of them of running in packs to blackball him behind the scenes and also sent a couple of strays in Earthquake and Faizon Love's direction for also falling short of his level of greatness.
Katt's hitting the road for his "Dark Matter" tour this year ... it's probably a safe bet none of these guys are safe from his rage onstage.

1/3/2024 10:10 AM PT
TMZ/Getty CompositePat McAfee is apologizing for his involvement in the growing feud between Aaron Rodgers and Jimmy Kimmel ... saying he understands where both sides are coming from, but is hoping they can make amends and get past it.
As we previously reported, the late-night host unloaded on social media following the New York Jets quarterback's appearance on the "Pat McAfee Show" on Tuesday ... threatening legal action after Rodgers suggested Kimmel could be named as one of Jeffrey Epstein's associates.

1/2/24 BREAK OUT THE BUBBLYPM said he believes Rodgers' comment was "certainly, probably" just a "s***-talk joke" ... but can see why Kimmel reacted the way he did.
McAfee pointed out he knew it was time to switch the subject as soon as it came out of Rodgers' mouth ... especially because he doesn't want to give their feud a platform, as he prefers to keep things light-hearted on his show.
"Some things, obviously, people get very pissed off about, especially when they're that serious of allegations," McAfee said. "So, we apologize for being a part of it. Can't wait to hear what Aaron has to say about it. Hopefully those two will just be able to settle this -- not court-wise, but be able to chitchat and move along."

Donald Trump Calls BS On 'Home Alone 2' Bully Claim 'They Begged Me To Be In The Film'
12/28/2023 5:36 AM PT
GettyDonald Trump is slamming reports he bullied his way into the film, "Home Alone 2: Lost In New York," saying the director begged him to play a role in a famous scene with Macaulay Culkin.
In a statement posted to his Truth Social platform Wednesday, Trump attacked 'Home Alone 2' director Christopher Columbus for hurling the bully accusation at him in a recently resurfaced 2020 Business Insider interview.
The 45th President wrote that Columbus was "begging me to make a cameo appearance" after the movie producers rented NYC's Plaza Hotel, which Trump owned at the time, to shoot a scene for the 1992 comedy.
Trump continued, “I was very busy, and didn’t want to do it. They were very nice, but above all, persistent. I agreed, and the rest is history!"
AlamyHe added that his brief cameo "took off like a rocket" and, as a result, the movie was a huge success then and now, particularly around Christmas time, noting, "People call me whenever it is aired.”
Columbus, however, saw his encounter with Trump very differently in the 2020 Business Insider interview, which was just rehashed by several media outlets.
GettyAt the time, Columbus told Business Insider ... he was unable to rebuild The Plaza Hotel on a soundstage for the scene where Trump bumps into Culkin in the lobby and offers him directions.
Columbus and his team contacted Trump to ask if they could film at 45's then-hotel, assuming they would just have to pay a fee.
Columbus said Trump promised to greenlight their request, but only if he could have a part in the flick.
After agreeing to the deal, Columbus said the "oddest thing" happened during their first screening -- the audience cheered when Trump popped up in the film.
Gallery Trump Living Large Launch Gallery GettySo, Columbus decided to leave Trump in the movie instead of cutting out his scene.
In the interview, Columbus put it this way ... "It’s a moment for the audience. But, he did bully his way into the movie.”

GettyDonald Trump está criticando los informes que dicen que presionó a su manera para estar en la película "Mi pobre angelito 2: Perdidos en Nueva York", diciendo que el director le rogó para que jugara un papel en la famosa escena con Macaulay Culkin.
En un comunicado publicado el miércoles en su plataforma Truth Social, Trump atacó al director de "Mi pobre angelito 2", Christopher Columbus, por acusarlo de acosador (o bully) en una entrevista con Business Insider de 2020, recientemente reaparecida.
El 45º presidente escribió que Columbus le "rogó que hiciera un cameo" después de que los productores de la película alquilaran el Hotel Plaza de Nueva York, que Trump poseía en ese momento, para rodar una escena de la comedia de 1992.
Trump continuó: "Estaba muy ocupado y no quería hacerlo. Fueron muy amables, pero sobre todo, persistentes. Acepté, ¡y el resto es historia!".
AlamyAñadió que su breve cameo "despegó como un cohete" y, como resultado, la película fue un gran éxito en ese entonces y ahora, sobre todo en la época navideña, señalando: "La gente me llama cada vez que se emite".
Columbus, sin embargo, vio su encuentro con Trump de una forma muy diferente en su entrevista con Business Insider en 2020, la que acaba de ser retuiteada por varios medios.
GettyEn ese momento, Columbus le dijo a Business Insider que no pudo reconstruir el Plaza Hotel en un escenario de sonido para la escena en la que Trump se topa con Culkin en el vestíbulo y le ofrece direcciones.
Columbus y su equipo se pusieron en contacto con Trump para preguntarle si podían filmar en el entonces hotel de los 45, asumiendo que solo tendrían que pagar un precio.
Columbus dice que Trump prometió darle luz verde a su petición, pero solo si él podía tener un papel en la película.
Después de aceptar el acuerdo, Columbus dijo que la "cosa más extraña" sucedió durante su primera proyección, el público aplaudió cuando Trump apareció en la película.
Gallery Trump viviendo a lo grande Launch Gallery GettyAsí que Columbus decidió dejar a Trump en la película en lugar de cortar su escena.

Britney Spears Chances of Xmas w/ Dad Dwindling ... Holiday Plans Still Hazy
12/23/2023 5:08 PM PT
Getty CompositeBritney Spears has yet to get on the horn and ring up her old man to make plans for Christmas -- and at this point ... it almost feels like a family reunion ain't happening.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Jamie Spears hasn't heard from Britney whatsoever in recent days, this despite the fact that it seemed like a coming-together was possibly imminent in time for the holidays.
Alas, we're told it's been radio silence from Britney's end ... although our sources say Jamie is planning on spending Christmas with his other daughter, Jamie Lynn Spears in Louisiana.
As far as where Britney might be, or what she'll end up doing ... it's not totally clear. We know her mother, Lynne, was hopeful her daughter might fly out and spend this weekend with her -- but again, there's no indication that's happening.
Gallery Jamie Spears Post-Amputation Launch Gallery BackgridIt's a bit of a downer to hear -- remember, after we broke the story that Jamie had his leg amputated ... Britney posted a photo of the two of them, seemingly signaling she'd come around and make amends.
It was just a few weeks ago that Britney and Lynne were together here in SoCal -- for Brit's 42nd birthday, no less -- but that sweet reconciliation appears to have been short-lived.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
View this post on InstagramLike we said, no idea on where Britney might be at the moment -- but she did just signal on social media she's still here in California ... 'cause she posted a video of herself posing in a white outfit, with a long caption recounting a story about something she saw at the gym.
On its face, it seems like she's rolling solo for Xmas ... which, if true, is a bit of a shame.
Gallery Britney Through The Years Launch Gallery GettyWe know for a fact people in her family would love to see her, but for now ... the clock is ticking on being able to make that a reality. Granted there are still a couple days left.

FKA Twigs Dragged by Taylor Swift Fans ... Over 'Famous' Reenactment
12/23/2023 4:26 PM PT
Getty CompositeTaylor Swift's loyal army of fans are coming after FKA Twigs over a perceived shot -- and it all has to do with an apparent reenactment of Kanye West's 'Famous' music video.
The indie artist posted a massive photo and video dump on Instagram the other day, recapping what she's been working on as an end-of-year tease of what's to come. It's a lot of random clips of her goofing around, as well as some snippets of her singing/recording, but one video in the mix got a double take from Swifties ... perhaps for good reason.
Play video content
SWIFTIES DON'T APPROVEIt features Twigs, multi-instrumentalist Eartheater and some other pals of theirs laying in a bed, with everyone looking like they're asleep. The camera angle is taken from above, and pans across everybody from left to right ... and at the end, they break character/laugh it up.
FKA didn't explicitly address the bed clip -- simply writing, "this year i have been making my album in cabs in berlin, huts in big sur, caves in ibiza, roads in hackney, i have written lyrics by lakes in prague and in the toilets of raves with a biro on the back of my hand."
On its face, it could just be a taste of a collab between herself and Earth -- and it could also be completely innocent/unrelated to Ye's 2016 song/music vid that looks awfully similar.
Unfortunately for Twigs, Swifites took offense to it ... as they seem to feel this is a dig that's mocking Ye's visual treatment -- which featured a fake nude Taylor right next to fake Ye/Kim.
Play video content
2016 UNEDITED VERSIONTaylor herself never addressed it, but people in her camp have expressed outrage over Kanye putting her likeness in there ... and many have gone to call it a crude publicity stunt teetering on revenge porn. It was just the latest development in their longstanding feud.
Now that Twigs has seemingly referenced that old wound with a recreation, of sorts -- intentionally or not -- the Swifites are out in force in her comment section ... and elsewhere online, and they're tearing Twigs are new one with a lot of angry comments/insults.
You can hop into the FKA Twigs trend and see the discourse for yourself -- on the one hand, you have Taylor's base going to bat for their idol, but on the other ... you got FKA's army defending her as well, and labeling the Swifties a toxic and misguided bunch.
FWIW, Taylor has not spoken out on this yet ... frankly, she probably isn't even aware of it. There's been no bad blood between these two ladies either -- in fact, Twigs has spoken fondly of Taylor in the past ... but they're not necessarily good friends or anything like that.
Gallery Feeling 34! Launch Gallery GettyWith all that said, we do know this whole 'Famous' saga is still fresh on Taylor's mind -- on account of her addressing it in her TIME profile recently -- but hopefully ... people can just let sleeping dogs lie here, 'cause it sounds pretty GD petty.
