McDonald's CEO -- Super Size Him

One of the perks of being the CEO of McDonald's is you get free McDonald's. One of the drawbacks of being the CEO of McDonald's is you get free McDonald's.

Jim Skinner

Brit Goes Hamburgling in London

Britney Spears may have phased out the pink wig, her British accent, daily panty shots and her overall sense of train wreckery, but some things never change -- girl is still lovin' it at McDonalds.

Mickey D's may only have chicken nuggets -- but Brit Brit was definitely serving up a healthy helping of legs.

Prez Bill Clinton -- Tempted to Cheat

... on his diet.

Bill Clinton: Click to watch
Bill Clinton -- famous for his love of fast food ... and there's a Phil Hartman "SNL" skit to prove it. But ever since his heart bypass surgery in 2004, eating the deep fried stuff would just be asking for trouble.

So yesterday in D.C., with the Golden Arches of McDonald's looming behind him as he talked basketball, think he really wanted to talk double teams ... or double cheeseburgers?

Members of Congress -- They're Lovin' It

UPDATE: FEAR NOT, DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER FANS!! McDonald's has not removed the DC from the regular menu -- it's just off the "Dollar Menu." So please stop calling your local McDonald's ... and certainly don't call 911.

McDonald's is one of the few recession-proof businesses in America -- its stock rose 6% in 2008, and we think it's because of its dollar menu. So, Tennessee Congressman John Duncan, Jr., Connecticut Senator Joe Lieberman and Louisiana Congressman Joseph Cao -- how do you spend your George Washingtons at Mickey D's?

McGriddle Me This -- Who Is the McD's Attacker?

McDonaldsOne McDonald's drive-thru employee is clinging to life (gross exaggeration) after a crazed customer cold-cocked her with a McGriddle breakfast sandwich -- and watch out ... because the culprit is still on the loose!

Police in Peoria, Ill. are conducting a massive manhunt (gross exaggeration) for a man who became enraged at a female drive-thru worker last week when his McGriddle was served to him without the egg.

The man retaliated at the worker's unforgivable flub by hurling his eggless McGriddle into her unsuspecting face and then driving away.

The woman refused medical attention, but did file a police report. The heinous crime remains unsolved.

Jonas Bros. Binge on Coke and Fast Food

Hold on to your purity rings, because members of America's favorite evangelical Christian dandy boy band, Nick and Joe Jonas, were caught putting bad stuff into their bodies: Fast food!

Jonas Bros

For their penance, the Jonai will have to listen to their music and go one day without skinny jeans.

McNugget 911 Calls -- The Unhappy Meal Drama

TMZ has obtained the THREE 911 calls by the woman who couldn't get a refund after a McDonald's in Florida ran out of McNuggets.

Click to listen!

UPDATE -- A rep for McD's tells TMZ, "Satisfying each and every customer that visits our restaurants is very important to us. Regarding this isolated incident, we apologize for the inconvenience caused. In the event that we are unable to fill an order, a customer should be offered the choice of a full refund or alternative menu items. We regret that in this instance, that wasn't the case.

We want to correct our mistake. We will be sending the customer her refund, along with an invitation to return for her original order, on us. We never want to disappoint a McNuggets fan or any McDonald's customer. Customer satisfaction is our top priority."

McNutt to Cops: "McNuggets Are an Emergency!"

Latreasa GoodmanThere's a reason this woman is wearing a serious grimace on her face -- she was just arrested over a box of Chicken McNuggets!!

Here's how it all went down: Latreasa Goodman claims she ordered -- and paid -- for a box of some delicious nuggets at a Mickey D's in Florida over the weekend, when suddenly the unthinkable happened -- she was told there were no more nuggets to be had. When an employee told her it was against store policy to give refunds, Latreasa called 911 -- three times in a row.

When the cops got to the scene, they tried to explain that McNugget drama is not an emergency -- but according to the police report obtained by TheSmokingGun.com, Latreasa begged to differ:

"This is an emergency, If I would have known they didn't have McNuggets, I wouldn't have given my money, and now she wants to give me a McDouble, but I don't want one. This is an emergency."

But here's the rub: Even after cops cited her for "misuse of 911," Latreasa continued to tell cops, "This is an emergency, my McNuggets are an emergency."

FYI -- the mug shot in this post is from a previous arrest. We're guessing Der Wienerschnitzel ran out of chili.

Keith Sweat McSells Out -- Serenades Nuggets

1990s R&B singer Keith Sweat is in love again, but the only things he wants to shove in his mouth are big, juicy nuggets -- at least that's what he says in his new "song."
Keith Sweat
Dude went from golden records to golden arches -- releasing a ridiculously awesome melodic ode to chicken nuggets to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the McDonald's menu item.

Ya gotta hear this!

McDonald's Cuts the Cheese, Ups Their Prices

Screw the auto industry -- save the McDonald's dollar menu!

The economy's first food industry casualty is upon us, as McDonald's is upping the price of its deliciously disgusting double cheeseburger to a whopping $1.19 -- and they're replacing it with the "McDouble," which is a double burger with half the cheese.

The price hike starts in December ... there are dark, dark times ahead, people.

Dogfighting and Kids Meals? Vick's Lovin' It!

Forget the Hamburglar! McDonald's is promoting its products using an actual convicted felon -- Michael Vick.
McDonalds
A TMZ employee went into a McD's in Hollywood yesterday and ordered a Happy Meal (don't ask). The box she received (pictured above) advertises six different electronic sports games, each of them named after a famous athlete. But Michael Vick is the only one of those athletes who is currently in federal prison.

The advertising was part of a cross-promotion with ESPN from 2004 -- back when Vick was just an overrated football player, instead of a dog murderer. Considering the Happy Meal is specifically targeted to young kids, you'd think Mickey D's would be more diligent about removing the name of a convicted dogfighter off the packaging.

We've contacted McDonald's for comment and they say they're getting back to us. This should be good.

UPDATE: We asked PETA what they thought about the whole thing. PETA's vice president, Bruce Friedrich, told us, "Given that McDonald's lets its suppliers cram animals into metal cages and crates and boil chickens alive, it's sad, but doesn't shock us, and at this point, even Michael Vick himself would probably rather that this particular Happy Meal would be a happy memory."
