Angie Stone‘s family is in the process of planning a large memorial and a more intimate funeral … wanting to make sure all her fans and famous friends have a chance to grieve the shocking loss, TMZ has learned.

Stone’s rep Deborah R. Champagne tells TMZ … the iconic singer’s family has begun planning a public memorial, which will be held in Atlanta. The date and venue are not clear yet … but they anticipate a large and star-studded turnout, so they are planning accordingly.

At the same time … the family is making arrangements for Stone’s funeral that will be more intimate — but not necessarily private — in Columbia, S.C., where she will be laid to rest. Deborah tells us an exact date is also not clear.

TMZ broke the devastating news that the singer and member of the iconic hip hop trio The Sequence was killed in a traffic accident Saturday morning.

Stone was with several people in a van, including her crew and backup singers, when the vehicle crashed on Interstate 65 in Montgomery County, Alabama. Stone was the only fatality.

Deborah tells TMZ there is speculation as to how the crash happened … but no one can talk about it until the official report from authorities has been released.

Angie rose to fame as a member of The Sequence — the first all-female group signed to Sugar Hill Records.

Angie embarked on a solo career in the late 1990s … and, her debut album “Black Diamond” went gold in the U.S. Two years later she released “Wish I Didn’t Miss You,” one of her most popular songs ever.

She was 63.

Actor Chris Hemsworth was soaking up the last days of summer Down Under last week … out surfing near his hometown of Byron Bay, Australia.

The Aussie clearly knows his way around the water, ripping waves on his shortboard, catching a few 4-footers on his twin-fin. Check out the vid … He looked great laying rail on his cutbacks, even catching a little tube time.

Afterward, the Hollywood hunk shed his wetsuit top, looking shredded after he finished shredding, trotting up the sand in his little star-covered trunks.

The ‘Thor’ superstar seems to be enjoying a bit of leisure between projects, taking time to tap some tasty waves back home in the surf-obsessed nation.

Mike Epps won’t be appearing on Shannon Sharpe‘s highly viewed “Club Shay Shay” podcast anytime soon … at least, not before the show decides to click-bait some white guys for a change!!!

The veteran comedian was on “The Breakfast Club” on Tuesday, where he downplayed appearing on “Club Shay Shay” after squashing his short-lived beef with Shannon last year.

Mike gave props for the podcast’s super-viral Katt Williams interview but also criticized Shannon’s lack of grilling regarding the white athletes and celebs.

Mike thinks Katt hurt a lot of feelings on “Club Shay Shay” … Steve Harvey, Cedric The Entertainer, Rickey Smiley and many more comics all got put into the blender. He was also upset … for not being included in Katt’s rant!!!

In more positive news, Mike says Ice Cube recently contacted him to confirm “Last Friday” — AKA “Friday 4” — is a go.
