T.I.'s concert in NYC turned into a shoot out.  There are reports of multiple victims, allegedly including another rapper, and mayhem.  We've got the latest inside...

T.I. was all set to perform at Irving Plaza Tuesday night in NYC, but shots rang out inside the venue before he took the stage, sources tell us.  Rappers Maino & Uncle Murda were on stage at the time, and T.I. was in the vicinity.

Cops swarmed the scene outside and first responders were spotted tending to multiple people on stretchers. Several news reports state there are 4 victims, with the Associated Press confirming one has died.

Most of the victims were taken to Bellevue Hospital.

Swizz Beatz and Yara Shahidi were honored at two different events. Come inside to find out what these two were recognized for inside….

Superproducer Swizz Beatz was honored at the Gordon Parks Foundation Awards Dinner and Auction at Cipriani 42nd Street in NYC Tuesday night. He was recognized for his contributions to philanthropy and art along with Donna Karan, Peter Beard, and Carrie Mae Weems.

During his acceptance speech, the Renaissance man talked about wanting to introduce art to his generation and to help change the stigma that art is only for rich people. He said, “The sky is not the limit, it’s just the view. There’s a stigma that art is only for rich people. Art is cool! And I want to lead my generation in that direction.”

 photo SwizzBeatz2016GordonParksFoundationAwardsUncNXHtJS9Xl.jpg

A live auction was conducted for guests to get a chance to buy some of famed photographer Gordon Parks’ photographs. A bidding war went down between Swizz and Estelle where the British songbird ended up beating Swizz for one of the pieces.

NY Knick baller Carmelo Anthony was also in the building. He coughed up $26,000 for a cool portrait of legendary boxer Muhammad Ali.FYI – It was announced Carmelo will be honored at the event next year.

NY Giants wide receiver and fashion lover Victor Cruz was all smiles in a blue suit.

Since tearing the patellar tendon in his right knee in 2014, Cruz has not hit the gridiron, but he’s slowing getting back into the groove. The NFLer came out to practice with his team on Monday, but kept it light. At this point, it’s still unclear if he will suit up for the 2016-2017 football season.

The Weeknd & Rapper Belly Back Out Of “Kimmel” Performance To Protest Donald Trump + Meek Mill Fires Shots At Drake On “All The Way Up” Freestyle

Canadian natives The Weeknd and Belly are taking a stand against presidential hopeful Donald Trump. Get the deets on the twosome backing out of a late night television performance. Also, Meek Mill is firing shots at Drake (again) on a new freestyle while his girlfriend Nicki Minaj is busy posting lingerie selfies on social media. Get it all inside....

R&B crooner The Weeknd and newcomer Belly, who’s signed to The Weeknd’s XO label and Roc Nation, are taking a public stand against presidential hopeful Donald Trump.

Belly was scheduled to make his network television debut on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” to perform his track “Might Not” with the XO honcho. But, he and the R&B crooner backed out of their taping Wednesday night because they found out Donald Trump was set to appear on the same episode. His television debut was meant to support the release of his new mixtape Another Day In Paradise that’s dropping on Friday.

"I feel like the way I was raised was to be able to see through all the titles in this world — from religion to race," Belly said in a statement."I just didn't want to feel like I was a part of a celebration for somebody who has beliefs that majority of us don't agree with."

Belly grew up as a minority immigrant in Canada and has a strong conviction against Donald Trump’s radical beliefs. So, it's no surprise he decided to back out of the performance.  He said in a statement:

"I'm here on a campaign of positivity and love and to contribute what I can to music," Belly said. "I create songs people go to sleep and wake up to, songs that they fall in love to. For me, being Muslim and being somebody that appreciates my access here in America, I love the fact that I'm able to be here. To play my part in this business is a privilege and a beautiful thing. The fact that I could lose that ability through the actions of someone such as Donald Trump isn't right to me. At all."

FYI – Donald Trump just officially won the Republican nomination for president. Ugh.

Nice to see celebs stand up for their beliefs on such a public platform.

Elsewhere in the rap world....

 photo meekallthewayup.png

Meek Mill and his waves may be stuck in Philly serving a house arrest sentence, but that hasn’t stopped him from hopping in the studio to drop new heat.

It appears the MMG honcho is ready for another round in his on-going rap beef with his enemy Drake. Most folks would agree Drizzy bodied Meek during their last rap battle, so Meek is looking for revenge. #SummerSixteen

Following Jay Z’s “All The Way Up” remix, the Dreamchasers rapper is following suit spitting a new freestyle on the track, this one featuring fellow east coast rapper featuring Fabolous.

On the track, Meek takes several shots at the Young Money rapper. He’s calling out Drizzy for using a ghostwriter (again) and references Drake’s hometown of Toronto.

Peep some of his lyrics below:

"Views from the projects, nigga I'm the prospect"

“This is hip-hop, you ain't write it don't record it/I don't know how they getting down across the border."

"I be in the 6 man 6 man, Dion Waiters."

Take a listen below:

Do we think Drizzy will respond?

Meanwhile...

Meek's girlfriend Nicki Minaj is back to posting scantily clad flicks on social media. She posted up these lingerie shots to congratulate Meek on his Billboard Award. We assume any reason would have been good enough to pose it up half naked on her account.

The Bad Reunion Tour kicked off in epic fashion. Everyone came out to perform for thetwo-day event at the Barclays Center last weekend. We showed you tons of pictures and videos of the Bad Boy honcho “diddy bopping” all across the stage as her performed alongside many of your faves.

Now, he’s paying for it.

 photo diddyarm2.png

Yesterday, the 46-year-old Hip Hop mogul underwent rotator cuff surgery on his shoulder for the 4th time.  He says it was long overdue.

“This morning I underwent rotator cuff surgery on my shoulder,” Diddy said in an Instagram video.“I’ve been in a lot of pain for a while but I’m grateful that I was able to make it through the shows and get to this point. My arm will be in a sling for while and I may not be dancing as usual but I'm on the road to recovery!! Thank everyone for the prayers and support!!! #GodBless #love”

Diddy has been active on his social media accounts chronicling his road to recovery on his SnapChat.  He revealed he also had to have an ultrasound on his knee and that he became dehydrated after performing for 3-hours straight each night.

Y'all know he was all up in EVERYBODY'S set.

 photo diddyarm3.png

Once he made it home, he told his fans they can expect something special for each city the Bad Boy Reunion comes to. But, he may not be dancing as hard or as much as he was for the kick-off shows.

Gucci Mane Is FREE! Rapper Shows Off Summer Sixteen Abs & Reunites With Girlfriend Keyshia Ka'oir

Gucci Mane was released from prison today. And his girlfriend Keyshia Ka’oir is more than excited. Peep the pics and videos of his homecoming inside….

Rappers and fans will no longer have to yell out “Free Gucci” as the rapper was released from prison today.

Gucci Mane (real name Radric Davis) was released from an Atlanta prison early this morning after being behind bars since 2013. He was thrown in federal prison after pleading guilty to possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. A judge sentenced him to 39 months in 2014 after Gucci copped a plea deal.

According to TMZ, Gucci got out 4 months early due to time served. The Brick Squad rapper’s lawyer Drew Findling filed a motion months ago stating Gucci didn’t receive credit for previous time served and that may be the reason he was let out a little earlier. He wasn’t due to get out until September.

Gucci’s lawyer told the site he will be placed on house arrest for a few moths and then he will be put on probation.

 photo guc2.png

 photo guc1.png

Gucci’s girlfriend Keyshia Ka’oir has been his ride-or-die chick, often times updating fans on how he was doing behind bars.

Today, she posted up several SnapChat videos capturing the moment she reunited with her boo. The reunited couple held hands in the car as they made their way home. Keyshia had a brand new Maybach and “Welcome Home” balloons waiting for her man after his prison stint.

The Brick Squad rapper then showed off his toned prison bod (still in his prison boxers), but he kept his face concealed. He probably wants to get a hair cut first.

What we do know is that he's ready to get back in the studio, so get ready for some new ratchet bangers from the rapper soon.

Welcome Home Big Gwop!

Anika Noni Rose Wasn’t Sure About “Roots” Remake At First + Alexandra Shipp Reveals More Women Hit On Her When She Was Bald

Anika Noni Rose and Alexandra Shipp are hot on the promo trail for their brand new projects. Get the deets on Anika’s hesitation about doing the “Roots” remake and Alexandra dishing on women hitting on her inside….

 photo arns2.jpg

This Memorial Day weekend will bring plenty of entertainment if you’re not out grilling up some food or hitting up someone’s cookout.

The History Channel will premiere the “Roots” remake on Monday (May 25th) to tell the raw, un-cut and unfiltered truth of our American history. The reboot will be a reimagining of the blockbuster 1977 miniseries about several generations of a slave family in a four-part, eight-hour project. The cast includes YBF A-listers, such as Anika Noni Rose, Laurence Fishburne, Forest Whitaker, Mekhi Phifer, and Clifford "T.I./Tip" Harris.

Tony Award winner Anika Noni Rose stars in the miniseries as Kizzy, the smart and only child of Kunta Kinte and Belle. Before accepting the role of Kizzy, Anika wasn’t sure if she wanted to do the role for several reasons.

In a sitdown interview with her good friend/actor Colman Domingo for the AOL Build series, the Dreamgirls actress opened up about why she was hesitant to take the role and what ultimately led to her decision to say yes.

“I was really conflicted at first,” said Anika. “I wasn’t sure what the background was, what the motivation was, was it the jump on the bandwagon of the so-called ‘slave story/slave narrative.’ I read recently that term that I didn’t appreciate. Or was it a group of people that wanted to do something with integrity, truth and honesty. They requested an audition and I requested a meeting and we talked about it.”

At the time she wasn’t being brought in for the Kizzy role, but they needed someone to go from very young to mature. She said once she found out the core reason the miniseries was being created, that’s when she decided to sign on.

Peep her full interview below:

After the interview...

The gorgeous actress snapped a few selfies with fans in a uber fab yellow, black and white stipped frock. A man with his dog all dressed up even joined in on the action.

Another YBF chick making media rounds...

 photo alexwendy.png

The beautiful Alexandra Shipp stopped by the “Wendy Williams Show” today to chop it up about her role as Storm (previously played by Halle Berry) in the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse thriller.

Styled by Jason Bolden, the 24-year-old actress served up a chic look, rocking a hot pink St John Knits mini dress paired with python pumps by Choloe Gosselin.

Since shaving her head bald for the role, she revealed more women have hit on her than men! And…she likes it! When Wendy asked if she’d ever kissed a girl before, she said she has and she liked that as well.

Alexandra also cleared up rumors that she and rapper Mos Def are dating. They were spotted together in Montréal last August, but she said they are JUST friends. Show producers pulled the picture up on the big screen and she pointed out her mom’s legs in the background to prove they weren't out on a date or anything. She happened to bump into him after she and her mom had just gotten massages and the photogs caught the shot.

This Picture Of Big Sean & Married Jhene Aiko Has Us Raising Our Eyebrows + Lamar Odom Won't Fight (Second) Divorce From Khloe Kardashian

 photo adesam1.png

Big Sean and Jhene Aiko (who is married, last we checked) are closer than close. Peep the backstage pic before their late night performance that us raising our eyebrows, plus, get the latest on Lamar Odom’s divorce from Khloe Kardashian inside….

Newly formed superduo TWENTY 88 (Big Sean & Jhene Aiko) was scheduled to perform on the “Late Late Show with James Corden” last night.

But before we show you their performance, we must address this ish.  This questionable picture of the duo. Backstage, Sean and Jhene were getting ready to hit the stage to perform their single “On The Way” when they stopped for a photo-op.

In the shot, Jhene (who is married to record producer Dot Da Genius) is propped up on Big Sean’s lap looking like a couple. While the picture seems harmless, it does raise our eyebrows being that Jhene is married. We know how PR works—if Sean and Jhene look like a couple that could lead to more album sales. But, this seems to be a bit much for a marketing ploy. And we wonder how her husband feels about it.

FYI -- We checked Do Da Genius' Instagram and we no longer see the marriage announcement he posted a few months ago. As a matter of fact, we no longer see ANY flicks of Jhene on his IG account. Hmm....trouble in paradise?  Or is HE in on it too?

 photo adesam2.png

On Sean’s SnapChat, he posted up a few videos that feature Jhene where he refers to the Souled Out songstress as “lil baby.” Oh?

We’re not insinuating that they’re an item, but this picture is a bit suspect, even for a marketing ploy.

Anywho, peep their performance on the show below:

And since we're hearing these two will possibly work on more music together, we can expect the rumor mill to continue turning until someone speaks out.

In divorce news….

 photo lolol.jpg

Now that Lamar Odom has seemingly bounced back from his near death drug overdose, it appears his divorce to his wife Khloe Kardashian is going to move forward. Khloe filed for divorce for the 2nd time yesterday after filing the first time in December 2013.

According to TMZ, Lamar has decided not to fight the divorce as its being reported Khloe wants to move on and have kids. Sources say Lamar sat down with Khloe for a long talk where they decided to end the marriage, but vowed to remain friends.

We’ve heard this before, so we’ll believe it when we see it. In the meantime, we hope this doesn’t trigger Lamar to spiral back out of control.

UPDATES: Troy Ave ARRESTED & CHARGED After Video Leaks Of Him Shooting At T.I. Concert, Longtime "Protective" Friend's Mother Speaks On Son's Death

Rapper Troy Ave has been arrested and charged after the rapper was caught on video firing off a gun at the T.I. concert Wednesday night.  Deets inside, plus the video and what T.I. and the mother of a victim are now saying...

Mayhem broke out when shots were fired Wednesday at Irving Plaza in NYC during a T.I. concert.  And now, rapper Troy Ave (government name Ronald Collins) has been arrested....AND caught on surveillance video shooting a gun!

In the video, Troy is seen limping into the green room after reportedly -- according to NYPD -- shooting himself accidentally in the leg.  He then raises a gun and shoots toward a scattering crowd.  He's currently recovering in the hospital.

Other reports suggest he was shot at first before the surveillance video began.  His longtime friend Ronald McPhatter, who was said to be "very protective" but may not have been serving in an official bodyguard capacity, was shot in the stomach and pronounced dead at Beth Israel hospital.

ABC News says today that Troy is the person who shot Ronald.  Manhattan's District Attorney's office said Troy will not be arraigned until he's released from the hospital.

NYPD confirmed Troy was charged with attempted murder and criminal possession of a weapon last night.

 

 

 photo 052616-wabc-irving-plaza-shooting-victimkilled-img_zpsrptcyamc.jpg

Ronald's mother Rose told ABC News that her son took a bullet to save a longtime friend.  She said:

"My son jumped in to assist Troy," she said. "He was very protective. He was very protective of his family."

"Right now I probably am trying to figure out what happened and why. You know, I want answers.  He loved everybody. He had a big heart."

Sad.

Five 9 mm casings were reportedly recovered from the green room area, indicating a 9 mm handgun was used.

The shooting happened before T.I. took the stage, and his afterparty at 1Oak was cancelled after news of the shooting hit the airwaves.  T.I. responded to the incident yesterday saying:

 
 

Rest In Peace Bro. God bless.

We've also learned that T.I.'s concert for high school grads from several schools in south Florida on June 11th. The promoters have now cancelled that event and are demanding their $55K deposit to be returned.

TMZ reports:

The promoters fired off a legal notice saying, due to the shooting, "the quality of the Talents services is not satisfactory to our Client." They added ... the event was marketed "as a safe environment for the students."

Damn homie.

Last night in Atlanta, Phaedra hosted a private screening of the upcoming TMNT movie that also served as a birthday bash for her baby boy. Little Ayden is growing up so fast!

As you all know, Ayden’s father Apollo Nida couldn’t be there to celebrate with his son since he’s currently serving an 8-year bid in federal prison. But, that didn’t seem to put a damper on things. It appears Ayden had a ball as he received TMNT gifts from friends before checking out the new film:

North West use to be scared of the SnapChat filters, but now she’s a fan! Come inside to see her cute Snap clips…

North West is growing up!

The two-year-old tot, above headed to music class yesterday, has overcome her fear of SnapChat. A few months ago, her mother Kim Kardashian West tried to get her to use one of the animal filters on SnapChat, but Nori wasn’t having it. Little Nori told her mom,“I’m scared of SnapChap.”

Ha! She called it "SnapChap."

Check it:

 

Well now, Nori has overcome her fear of the social media app. Her mom whipped out her phone for North to play around with several different filters, including the new kitty cat filter, the puppy filter, the pig filter and she face swapped with her mom. As she tried out each filter, she would bark like a dog or meow like a cat. And it’s the cutest thing ever.

Peep the adorableness below:

North and the Kardashian Klan stepped out for dinner at Nobu in Malibu to celebrate Scott Disick’s (Kourtney Kardashian’s baby daddy) 33rd birthday. The cameras were rolling as they sang Scott “Happy Birthday” so, if you watch the show, you’ll likely see the party on an upcoming episode.

In other news, Kanye West and Kim are threatening to sue a former bodyguard for $30 million because they claim he has been spilling tea to the media about them. Oh?

TMZ reports:

We've learned Kim and Kanye's lawyer has fired off a letter to Steve Stanulis ... the bodyguard who went to anyone who would listen, claiming he was fired for chatting up Kim on the job and making Kanye jealous. Kim and Kanye have both said it's a complete lie.

Turns out, we're told that Steve signed a confidentiality agreement promising never to breathe a word about Kim, Kanye or the klan. We're told the lawyer's letter is quick to mention a provision which says Steve is automatically on the hook for $10 mil if he opens his mouth ... and they believe he did at least 3 interviews.

Reportedly, if the bodyguard publicly apologizes and stops talking to the media, they’ll drop the case. Hmph.

Tina & Richard Lawson Get Cutesy On Their Way To Dinner + Mariah Carey -- Lee Daniels Is The FRAGILE B*TCH!

Mariah Carey responds to Lee Daniels and Wendy Williams after they called her “too fragile” for reality TV. Find out how she clapped back, plus, peep cute coupledom flicks of Tina Lawson and her husband Richard Lawson inside....

We all know Mariah Carey is the queen when it comes to throwing shade. And she can serve up a clap back if need be.

Well, Mimi, above leaving Nobu with friends in L.A. yesterday, has a few words (and karate kicks) for good friend Lee Daniels and daytime talk show host Wendy Williams.

Here’s how it started….

A few days ago, Lee sat down with radio/TV personality Bevy Smith for her “Bevelations” radio show on SiriusXM. During the interview, the “Empire” co-creator revealed he wasn’t happy how Mariah seemingly tricked him to be featured on her upcoming E! docu-series. He said they met at a restaurant on Wall Street when she rolled up with cameras tagging along. He said she told him about the documentary and pulled out a disclosure/release form for him to sign. At the time, he didn’t know it was for a “reality show,” but he soon learned his friend would be joining the “reality TV” realm and he wasn’t happy about it.

“I don’t know if it’s a wise idea for her,” said Lee. “I was at the gym when I saw it and was like, ‘Oh Lord, what is she doing?’ I think it’s bigger than her. I think it’s not a good idea. I think the true geniuses have to be saved from themselves sometimes.”

Lee then proceeded to label her as “too fragile” to do reality TV saying:

“She is very fragile and she has been through a lot. She has been used, she has been abused. She is misunderstood because she is really, really ride or die. She really will do anything for you.”

Following suit, Wendy Williams addressed what Lee said on her show during her Hot Topics segment where she agreed with Lee. Here’s what she said (at the 7:20 mark):

The Elusive Chanteuse singer got wind of their comments and decided to respond to Lee and Wendy in a few Instagram posts. She linked up with Lee and recorded a few clips where Lee says “I’m the b*tch that’s fragile okay?” followed by her playfully kicking him. She captioned,"He's the b*tch that's fragile! Don't come for us unless we call for you @wendyshow"

Toccara Jones popped up in Beverly Hills on a retail run with a kid. Meanwhile, Mel B and her husband Stephen Belfonte were busy getting kissy on the carpet at a Red Nose Day event. Pics inside…

Well here’s a surprise. We don’t see former “Top Model” Toccara Jones often, but photogs caught her in Beverly Hills yesterday.

 photo toc2.jpg

The 25-year-old curvy model was dressed down in a pair of leggings, a shirt, Tom flats and beanie on her head as she made a few retail stops with a kid. The paps labeled the kid as her son, but we’re not so sure it’s her son. We never heard her talk about having a kid. Maybe it’s a relative or a friend’s kid.

Nice seeing her out and about. Hopefully, we'll see her slay a new spread or something soon.

Former Spice Girl Mel B and her husband Stephan Belafonte are still going strong. The twosome hit the carpet at The Red Nose Day Special on NBC held at Alfred Hitchcock Theater at Universal Studios yesterday.

You’ll recall, rumors were swirling that there was trouble brewing in their marriage in December 2014. Speculation grew when she showed up for a taping of “X Factor” with bruises on her face, a bruise on her cheek and scratches on her arms after a three-day hospital stay.Lately, they've been out and about together like everything is all the way 100 between them.

They were all about the PDA on the carpet:

And there it is!  That baby bump that's been unsuccessfully hiding under all of Angela Simmons clothes lately.  Get her confirmation of her pregnancy -- and pics with her fiancé -- inside....

Angela Simmons is pregnant!  We've all been speculating for weeks about whether is or isn't, and now the fashion designer who recently got engaged is confirming what most of us already knew.

On Friday, the 28-year-old daughter of Rev. Run was spotted with her fiancé, Sutton Sean Tennyson, whom she likes to keep as hidden as possible.  The twosome were out and about in L.A. going for a hike, and Angela rocked her tank top lifted up as she exposed her pronounced baby bump.

Some believe this wasn't all just coincidence that she was suddenly caught with her shirt up, and that the pics MAY be staged.  Either way, she decided to post her own confirmation about an hour after the other photos hit the net.

 photo Screen Shot 2016-05-28 at 2.37.58 AM_zpsbk43ufxw.png

The mom-to-be gushed:

We are overjoyed and super excited to receive a blessing this big! Starting a family was something that I could have only dreamed of.

The statement is interesting, seeing that she has been vocal for years -- even as recently as on her "Growing Up Hip Hop" reality show -- about remaining abstinent until marriage.

Angela looks happy and healthy, and that's definitely a plus.

Congrats to her and her husband-to-be on their bundle of joy!

SAD NEWS: N.O. Pelicans Player Bryce Dejean-Jones Shot & Killed In Dallas

In sad news, New Orleans Pelicans player Bryce Dejean-Jones was shot and killed in Dallas early this morning.  The bizarre details inside...

L.A. native Bryce Dejean-Jones was fatally shot in the abdomen close to 3AM Saturday morning.  He reportedly had an argument with his baby's mother hours earlier at their daughter's birthday party that he was in town for.

Dallas police were called around 3:20AM with reports that Bryce kicked down the door to a residence of a person supposedly with no connection to him.  The resident shot him after calling out asking the intruder to identify themselves and there was no answer.

ESPN reports:

According to Dallas police, officers responded to a call about a shooting at an apartment at about 3:20 a.m. Saturday morning. The resident of the apartment said an individual had kicked open his front door and entered.

The resident, who had been asleep, retrieved a handgun and called out to the individual, but did not receive an answer. The individual kicked the bedroom door and the resident fired his gun at the individual, who left the apartment and collapsed in the breezeway. The individual was transported to the hospital, where he died. Police at that point identified him as Dejean-Jones. 

Further reports state:

According to a statement that Camden Belmont Apartments sent to its residents Saturday morning, the individual later identified as Dejean-Jones was "believed to be breaking into the apartment of an estranged acquaintance (but) inadvertently broke into the wrong apartment."

Due to Texas law, it's unclear whether charges will be filed on the shooter.  Residents in the Lone Star state are legally allowed to shoot or use deadly force against intruders in their home and to defend oneself.  One cannot be involved in a crime at the time of using the deadly force or provoke the attacker.

Completely unfortunate situation that leaves so many questions.

The Pelicans issued a statement saying:

"It is with deep sadness that the Pelicans organization acknowledges the sudden passing of Bryce Dejean-Jones.  We are devastated at the loss of this young man's life who had such a promising future ahead of him. Our thoughts and prayers are with Bryce's family during this difficult time."

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver states:

"The NBA family mourns the tragic loss of New Orleans Pelicans guard Bryce Dejean-Jones.  Bryce inspired countless people with his hard work and perseverance on his journey to the NBA, and he had a bright future in our league. Our thoughts and sympathies are with Bryce's family and the entire Pelicans organization during this difficult time."

The 23-year-old, who just signed a 3-year contract in February after signing consecutive 10-day contracts, started 11 of 14 games before undergoing surgery for a broken right wrist and missing the rest of the season.

The couple skipped out on talking to media but Chyna said "Thank you" to the fans who told her how cute she is. 

Speaking of cute, the Chyro baby is already set to fetch $1 million...thanks to its first pics.

Deals are likely already on deck as photo agencies are speaking up about what they would offer to the couple.  TMZ reports:

We've surveyed the photo agencies that market celeb baby pics, and they say the first pics will pull in a million bucks. There's a G-string attached ... Rob and Chyna will be part of the shoot, and the pics have to be intimate ... a sappy interview, "candid" home photos with a sprinkle of Kardashian secrets.

Hmph.
