Exclusive Details

0507-lael-collins-cowboys-GETTY-01Former LSU football star La’el Collins will get a $ 21,000 signing bonus … after signing a free agent contract with the Dallas Cowboys … TMZ Sports has learned. 


We’re told he’s set to make $ 435k in his 1st year, $ 545k his second year and $ 656k in year 3. 


Our sources tell us … when all is said and done, Collins will get the same dollar amount as the 7th pick of the 2nd round of the NFL Draft. 


Of course, La’el’s draft stock plummeted after he was questioned by police in the shooting death of a pregnant woman. Before the incident, he was projected to be a 1st round draft pick.


For the record, Collins was never arrested and has not been named as a suspect.

Lil Wayne -- I Back My Daughter in Young Thug Beef (VIDEO)

Z STAFF


EXCLUSIVE


Lil Wayne and Young Thug‘s war is so heated, death threats are already flying — but Wayne has no problem with his 16-year-old daughter getting in the middle of the feud.


We got Weezy outside Avalon Hollywood and asked him if there was any shot at chance for squashing the beef — especially with The Game and Thug threatening to go ballistic.


Watch the video … Wayne was NOT in the mood to talk peace. In fact, he took the opportunity to applaud his daughter Reginae‘s tweets blasting Young Thug for originally naming his mixtape “Carter 6″ (a clear shot at Wayne’s long-delayed album).


Blood IS thicker than beef.

Taylor Swift "Bad Blood" Video to Debut at 2015 Billboard Music Awards

Taylor Swift is about to spill some Bad Blood on a national stage.





The beloved artist announced via Instagram today that she will debut her next music video at the outset of the 2015 Billboard Music Awards, which will air on ABC on Sunday, May 17 at 8/7c.



It appears as if the video will be quite involved, as Swift has teased it via a poster that features her starring as a character named “Catastrophe.”


We can't help but wonder if Quentin Tarantino played a role in the video's creation.


The actual song, meanwhile, has an involved backstory of its own.


In an earlier interview, Swift admitted that Bad Blood is about one of her enemies in the music business.


She told Rolling Stone that this individual did something "horrible" to her in 2013, an act that did not involve a "guy."


Soon afterward, it came out that Swift was referring to Katy Perry, who Taylor believes stole a backup dancer from her for a world tour.


Will the video feature any sort of subtle swipe at Perry? Swift has been known to take passive aggressie jabs in her personal life.


According to a press release, though, the video will include multiple starring roles played by a cast of Golden Globe winners, Emmy winners, Grammy winners, an Oscar nominee and major movie stars.


Color us intrigued!
