Rapper YC -- Busted Cheating in Vegas ... Fiancee Ditches Him at the Altar!


EXCLUSIVE


0410-yc-tia-anderson-getty-tmz-02Rapper YC -- aka Yung Chris -- just learned fidelity is a key part of marriage ... especially the night before your wedding.


Sources close to YC say the rapper and his GF of 5 years, Tia Anderson ... decided to elope at the end of March, and invited a handful of family and friends to join them at the Bellagio in Vegas. What they didn't plan on was the smokin' hot bartender.


We're told Tia spotted YC -- best known for his hit, "Racks" -- getting handsy with a hotel bartender on Friday night ... and immediately pulled the plug on the Saturday ceremony.


YC's telling friends nothing happened with the drink-slinger, but admits it was heading in that direction. Not that it matters to Tia ... the damage was done.


As for the ring -- we're told Tia's keeping it. If YC's looking for ice ... try the bartender.

Willie Gault -- My Son's A Knockout Artist ... Just Ask Manny Pacquiao

My Son's A Knockout Artist


... Just Ask Pacquiao



EXCLUSIVE


0406-Willie-gault-gabriel-gault-manny-pacquiao-art-TMZSPORTS-01


Willie Gault was a Picasso on the gridiron ... but Manny Pacquiao thinks Gault's son Gabriel is a regular Picasso ... hiring the kid to capture the Pac Man's essence in two custom paintings.


It went down when Willie got a call from Manny's manager who told him he'd seen Gabriel's artwork ... and he was a HUGE fan.


He spread the word to Manny, who commissioned two pieces from Gabriel about a month ago -- one solo Manny shot ... and one with him and his son.


We're told it took Gabriel about a week to sketch and paint the artwork (speed runs in the family) but then he really turnt it up ... making each painting into a 3D image that "JUMPS" out of the frame.


Gabe did the job for free ... But since Manny signed each piece and gave one back to Gabriel, he now has a piece of memorabilia that could be worth thousands of dollars ... although we're told he plans to keep it.


FYI -- Both Gabe and Willie say they are squarely in Pac Man's corner ... so add another celeb to Manny's stable of supporters.

Lindsay Lohan -- My Mom Comes to England, Off With Her Head!!!


EXCLUSIVE


0410_lindsay_dina_lohan_tmzLindsay Lohan believes there's only room for one Lohan in England, and that's why she's waging war against her mother's plan to move there for UK TV fame and fortune.


We've learned Dina is in the final stages of negotiations to appear on "Celebrity Big Brother" in the UK. It's a big show there ... Gary Busey won last season.


Dina was so excited, she called Lindsay Thursday to say how great it was going to be that they could spend time together.


We're told Lindsay flipped out and began screaming at her mom, saying she had no right to come to England, where Lindsay went to escape. They fought on the phone and then fired angry texts back and forth.


Lindsay doesn't want Dina in England, partly because she feels her mom is a bad influence and partly because she's just bad luck. Lindsay says she's doing well and doesn't want it screwed up.


As for Dina, she feels Lindsay has no right to exile her from England.


Here's what we don't get. Why can't Dina come to England and stay away from Lindsay. Too easy.

'DWTS' Star Chris Soules -- Dance-scaping (VIDEO)


EXCLUSIVE


041015_chris_soules_primary


"The Bachelor" star Chris Soules is definitely no 40-year-old virgin ... but he did a damn good impression by getting his chest hair torn out for his next performance on "Dancing With the Stars."


We're told Chris will be channeling Hercules in the dance number, and his partner Witney Carson suggested he clean up that Soules Patch ... of course, she volunteered to wax on, wax off.


We're told he'll wear a skirt to show off his man-gams, and nothing above to showcase his new, smooth chest. We doubt fiancee Whitney Bischoff will complain.


It's painful to watch but it's funny.
