Kane Next WWE Hall of Famer?!? ... Put Me In!!!

HALL OF FAME, MAYBE?

He's won the WWE Heavyweight belt, the Intercontinental title, the tag-team belt and he's a REAL-LIFE mayor -- but there's one more title Kane wants, WWE Hall of Famer!

Here's the deal ... since Kane, real name Glenn Jacobs has been wrestling in the WWE for 24 YEARS (since 1995) we asked him who should get the next nod for the WWE HOF.

"Maybe me, I don't know," Jacobs told us with a smile in NYC ... "Yeah, we'll see!"

Maybe me? ABSOLUTELY YOU!

Kane is a legend -- he's battled everyone from The Undertaker to Shawn Michaels ... screamed at The Rock and Hulk Hogan ... hugged it out with Daniel Bryan and even chokeslammed Pete Rose!

Of course, he deserves to be enshrined with the greatest WWE superstars of all time ... joining legends like Andre the Giant, Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair and more.

The issue ... Kane is still an active wrestler and even held (briefly) the 24/7 title back in September.

But, Triple H still wrestles and he's in the Hall ... so why not Kane?

Floyd Mayweather Fan Clobbered by Bodyguard ... After Photo Request Goes Sideways

Published | Updated
Floyd Mayweather
THE ALLEGED BEATDOWN

Floyd Mayweather's mixed up in another one-sided fight, but he wasn't the one throwing punches ... some guy in his crew delivered this beatdown.

The champion boxer was involved in an incident at a Las Vegas mall on Thanksgiving eve that resulted in a fan getting thumped by a presumed member of his security team ... as you can see on surveillance footage, obtained by TMZ Sports.

We're told Floyd was exiting the House of Hoops store with his girlfriend and his crew when an employee working at one of the kiosks nearby approached for a photo. The employee, Juan Calderon, tells TMZ ... he was trying to get a pic for a coworker who felt weird asking, but Floyd shot him down.

Calderon says Mayweather was rude about the rejection, so he let Floyd and his group know that he thought they were "acting like d**ks."

One of Floyd's boys allegedly confronted Calderon about the comments, and Juan tells us he told the guy Floyd should take photos with his fans. Juan says the guy tried to smooth things over and shake his hand ... but he refused.

That may have been a bad move because Calderon tells us another crew member noticed he was still looking Floyd's way ... so he then approached to confront Juan about his insults.

The apparent bodyguard can be seen in the mall footage wearing a TMT shirt walking next to Floyd and is later seen throwing at least a couple punches at Calderon. Juan says the guy unloaded on him, landing 3-5 blows before leaving.

Calderon says Floyd was right there when the attack went down. Juan tells us he went to the hospital for a CT scan afterward ... which fortunately revealed no brain injury.

He also says he filed a police report, and law enforcement confirms it responded to a call for a simple battery incident at the mall on Wednesday night around 9:30 PM.

Sources close to Mayweather tell us ... Calderon was antagonizing the boxer and his crew, and they believe he was looking for a fight -- and a lawsuit.

Jane Fonda's 'Fire Drill Fridays' Paul Scheer Arrested ... 'Young Sheldon' Star Speaks

Published | Updated
Paul Scheer Arrest
CUFFED FOR CLIMATE CHANGE

Just because it's Black Friday, doesn't mean Jane Fonda and her growing army of climate change activists are taking the week off ... and another celeb got arrested for the cause.

Comedian Paul Scheer was taken away in handcuffs from the demonstration outside the Capitol Building in Washington D.C. He's the latest member of the club to be arrested in the Fonda-led "Fire Drill Fridays" protest for climate change.

As we reported ... Diane Lane, Piper Perabo, and Amber Valletta were added to that list last week. We're told Scheer was one of 37 people to be arrested Friday.

Also joining the force this week -- the 11-year-old star of "Young Sheldon," Iain Armitage. Iain spoke at the event about climate change's threat to farmers and the world's food supply ... as did Scheer.

Fortunately for the kid, he wasn't arrested like Paul. Like he says ... he's a little too young for a criminal record.

For the fourth straight week, Jane also avoided being cuffed by D.C. cops. As we've told you ... she's already been arrested 4 times, and the folks behind her movement are making sure she avoids her 5th arrest because it could result in serious consequences.

Other Hollywood stars to be arrested during past 'FDF's include Sam Waterston, Ted Danson, Rosanna Arquette and Catherine Keener ... and it seems like the list is only going to get longer.

London Bridge Terror 2 Dead, Cops Shoot Knife-Wielding Man ... Separate Stabbing Reported in The Hague

Published | Updated
London Attack
TAKING OUT THE SUSPECT
UPDATE

12:20 PM PT -- Three people have been wounded in another knife attack ... this time on a shopping street in The Hague, Netherlands. Hague police are reportedly looking for a man, aged 45-50, wearing a shawl and a gray tracksuit.

UPDATE
UPDATE

10:18 AM PT -- There are reports 2 civilians have died from stabbing wounds inflicted by the suspect.

London Bridge is on lockdown after armed officers took down a man with a knife -- who'd already stabbed a handful of people -- during an attack police are calling terrorism.

Videos from the harrowing scene show civilians wrestling the suspect to the ground, and trying to get the knife out of his hand. Heavily armed special forces -- British cops are typically unarmed -- surrounded the scrum, pulled the civilians away and then opened fire.

The man seen running away from the pile with a knife is NOT the suspect, but a civilian who disarmed him. The suspect was killed ... his body lied motionless on the sidewalk after the gunfire.

At least one witness reportedly thought the suspect might have explosives strapped to him. Police have confirmed there was a device on his body, but they believe it was a fake.

Police got the call just before 2 PM that someone with a knife was attacking people near the London Bridge -- and, so far, there are 5 reported knife injuries. The only fatality is the suspect.

The scene was reminiscent of the 2017 terrorist attack on the bridge ... when 3 suspects killed 8 people and injured 48 others.

Thanksgiving Brawl Punches, Tackles and More ... At PA Shopping Mall

Published
Black Friday Fight
BLACK FRIDAY BRAWLIN'

Forget Black Friday -- the madness now begins when stores open up early on Thanksgiving night ... and a Pennsylvania mall's one of the first to have a fight break out as holiday shopping kicks off.

The chaos reportedly went down at the Lehigh Valley Mall in Whitehall Thursday night after 9 PM ... when at least 5 men got involved in a brawl outside the Forever 21.

As you see in the video, it appears 2 men are involved in a fistfight when a third in a striped shirt jumps in to deliver a few blows. Security tries to separate it to no avail, and at least 2 more men join in on the ruckus.

It's unclear what ignited the fight, but a local report says it lasted about a minute before it was separated ... and it didn't appear anyone was arrested. We're working on more details.

As we've reported ... Black Friday's known as one of the most dangerous shopping days -- the craziness just started a bit early this year.

Caitlyn Jenner Khloe's Not Really Talking to Me ... Hasn't for At Least 5 Yrs!!!

Published | Updated

Caitlyn Jenner says there absolutely is a rift between Khloe Kardashian and her -- and she claims it's been that way ever since going public about her transition.

Caitlyn revealed the beef on the Australian reality show, "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me out of Here!" She contrasted her son Brandon's reaction -- one of pride -- to her transition ... with Khloe's.

As Caitlyn put it, "Khloe for some reason was pissed off about something through this whole process." She added she and Khloe "really haven't talked" in 5 or 6 years. Caitlyn publicly came out in June 2015. It's unclear exactly when she told family members.

As TMZ first reported, Khloe was not at Caitlyn's 70th birthday celebration last month. At the time, Kardashian sources said there was no beef, and Khloe only missed the dinner party because she was shooting a commercial that day. The rest of her daughters -- Kim, Kourtney, Kendall and Kylie -- were all there.

Further, we were told Khloe had personally called Caitlyn to say she wouldn't be at the bday bash -- but she sent a huge bouquet of pink and white roses.

Caitlyn posed with flowers and posted it with the caption, "So blessed to have so much love in my life from family and friends."

That peachy keen sentiment is gone now ... at least from Caitlyn's side. On the show, she also said, "We were really close. I raised her since she was five years old. I really don't know what her issues are."

Kid Rock Goes on Drunken Rant About Oprah ... And I Ain't Racist!!!

ROCKIN' AND ROLLIN'
UPDATE

10:07 AM PT -- 11/30 -- Kid's now offering some explanation for his Oprah rage. He says it all started when he almost went on her show, until her producers asked him to "write down 5 reasons why I loved her."

UPDATE
UPDATE

The rest is history ... a 4-letter-word laced history.

Kid Rock wants the world to know he HATES Oprah Winfrey (and other talk show hosts), but also ... don't call him racist because of it. His drunken words, not ours.

The country rocker went on a wild tirade last week at his own Honky Tonk bar in Nashville -- which apparently overserved their boss, 'cause the man was clearly intoxicated as he blasted O from the stage ... saying, "F*** Oprah!" and other vulgarities we won't repeat.

Check out the video, 'cause it's truly an ugly sight to behold. He lays into Oprah repeatedly and then goes on to attack Joy Behar and Kathie Lee Gifford. We don't know why he might've gone after Kathy, but he and Joy had beef last year -- he even called her a bitch on TV.

As far as O goes ... he's noted in past interviews that he just doesn't like her, period. No clear reason as to why, though. Adding insult to injury, KR consistently explains that just because he hates these folks -- especially Oprah -- that doesn't make him racist. Some members of the crowd disagreed.

Eventually, Kid -- who's a staunch Trump supporter, BTW -- appeared to be so hammered ... he had to be helped off stage by security. Not a good look at all.

Goldlink Mac Miller Was One of My Best Friends!!! Backtracks on Beef Remarks

Published
Goldlink
MAC WAS THE 'REALEST'

Mac Miller helped put rapper GoldLink on the map, according to GoldLink himself ... who claims he was NOT trashing Mac on social media -- despite how many, like Anderson .Paak, took it.

GoldLink was on stage in Hamburg, Germany Wednesday night when he addressed the controversy that erupted after he insinuated Mac had used one of Goldlink's records as a "blueprint" for the "Divine Feminine" album. Goldlink told the crowd, "Mac Miller is my best friend in the industry, that's one of my best f**king friends to this day."

He went on to give Mac props, along with Pusha T and Wale, for helping him make it in the music biz. GoldLink said his Mac Miller post was "about love and that n****s can actually be brothers. It wasn't about stealing, I never used the word copy. I never used the word steal."

Well, it's true he never used those words. What he said was, Mac would "adopt styles as homage" to other artists he loved. GoldLink also said of "Divine Feminine" ... "That's where our problem started."

As we reported, Anderson .Paak defended Mac and called out GoldLink for metaphorically backstabbing Mac when he can't defend himself, and also ranted, Mac "brought your ass on tour and opened up his fan base to you when you had nothing."

Well, watch the clip, because GoldLink seems to take a shot at Anderson saying, "You can't talk about n****s you don't know, so we ain't worried about n****s we don't know." BTW, Anderson has featured on songs with GoldLink and Mac.

He also thanks Mac for giving him a platform -- something he also acknowledged on social media -- and he really gushes about cake. The one Mac gave him.

GoldLink has not deleted his post about Mac, but he's disabled comments.

Ariana Grande Mother, Father and Child Reunion ... Thanksgiving with Mom & Estranged Dad

Published

Ariana Grande's singing "We Are Family" for the Thanksgiving holiday because she's spending it with her mother AND her father for the first time in her adult life.

Ariana was surrounded by both of her parents on Thursday, which she revealed was her "first Thanksgiving with both of my parents in 18 years!" She posted several photos and videos of what looked like a big family celebration.

The singer's parents divorced in 2003, and Ariana reportedly fell out of touch with her father, Edward Butera, in 2013. At the time, she told Seventeen magazine it was one of the hardest things she'd ever gone through. However, over the last couple of years, she and dad have been patching things up.

She's posted a few shots of dad joining her before and after concerts on her current tour.

Ariana references her strained relationship with Butera in "thank u, next" -- singing, "One day I’ll walk down the aisle/holding hands with my mama/I’ll be thanking my dad/’cause she grew from the drama."

Looks like that's one step closer to becoming reality ... besides the groom and stuff, of course.

Gabrielle Union 'AGT' Firing Jay Leno Joke Was NOT Racist ... Says Alonzo Bodden as Ellen Pompeo Backs Gabrielle

Published | Updated

Gabrielle Union's claims of a toxic workplace at 'AGT' has Ellen Pompeo sounding off in support of Gabby -- but now someone's also defending Jay Leno, saying his Korean joke wasn't racist at all.

You'll recall, Gabrielle reportedly feels she was canned because she complained to producers and NBC about racially insensitive situations on the 'AGT' set -- among them a joke Leno made, while guest judging, about Koreans eating dogs.

We got comedian Alonzo Bodden -- himself a "Last Comic Standing" champ -- at the Laugh Factory and he stood up for Jay, explaining why he feels it was NOT a racist joke. In a nutshell, he says there's a big difference between playing off a "common stereotype" and attacking a specific person over race.

The Leno joke was edited out and never made air, but Alonzo still laughed off any thoughts of a 'Cancel Leno' movement. He also added Leno was the least of Gabrielle's issues on the show.

She reportedly also had issues with producers' "excessive notes" about her physical appearance, wardrobe and hair -- and Pompeo weighed in Thursday, calling Gabby courageous for taking a stand.

The "Grey's Anatomy" star also called out NBC for not changing "practices or culture" after Matt Lauer's sexual misconduct scandal.

Pompeo called for all women -- especially "white girls" -- to stand up for Gabrielle, and even Ariana Grande's now speaking up, too.

Bow Wow Millennium Tour's Gonna Be Better ... We're Not Focusing On B2K Drama

Published

Bow Wow says the Millennium Tour is gonna have better energy the second time around ... this after Omarion's decided to cut ties with B2K following tons of drama on the first leg.

We got Bow Wow in Atlanta after Omarion announced the rapper would be featured on the 2020 version of the tour instead of B2K ... and he says the vibes on tour are gonna be way better this time around.

As you know ... Omarion touted the original Millennium Tour as a sort of B2K reunion, but wherever they went, drama followed. Raz B nearly quit just a few days into the tour, and then more issues cropped up when Lil Fizz started dating Omarion's baby mama, Apryl Jones.

J Boog
YOU CAN THANK FIZZ

J Boog is ripping Lil Fizz for ruining the tour, but Bow Wow isn't willing to go there ... as he puts it, he and Omarion are trying to stay above the fray.

Regardless of what happened before, Bow Wow says he's focused on giving the fans a good show ... and he's glad Soulja Boy is coming on tour too.

Tito Ortiz I Want to Fight Jon Jones, Seriously ... 'I Think I Could Beat Him'

Published | Updated
He's 44-years-old ... but Tito Ortiz says his fight game is BETTER than ever -- and he wants to prove it against Jon Jones.
STILL GOT IT

He's 44-years-old ... but Tito Ortiz says his fight game is BETTER than ever -- and he wants to prove it against Jon Jones.

"I think I could beat Jon Jones," Tito tells TMZ Sports ... "I think I got a good chance. I really do think I got a good chance."

Tito has been training his ass off for his Dec. 7 MMA clash with ex-WWE superstar Alberto Del Rio and says he finally feels healthy, clear-minded and strong.

Of course, Jones is only 32 and hasn't really lost a fight since turning pro -- he's widely considered one of the greatest UFC fighters ever!

But, Ortiz says Jones ruined his shot at being the G.O.A.T. -- "He tarnished his career so many times, so much stuff he did in and out of the cage. Bums me out because I love the guy, man."

As for the critics who say Tito's too old hang with a guy like Jones, Tito has a message for them too ...

"Come to my camp. Come train with me. Come wrestle with me. Come do Jiu-Jitsu with me. Watch me weight train, watch my biking ... I'm doing amazing, my mind's in the right place."

There's A LOT more in the raw video (see below) ... Tito talks about his issues with Dana White and why he's down to squash the beef with the UFC once and for all.

He also talks about his rivalry with Chuck Liddell, his upcoming movie with Bruce Willis ... and his dreams of becoming a WWE superstar down the road!

Guess Who This Feasting Fella Turned Into!!!

Published

Before this hungry little guy would go on to become one of the most decorated swimmers of all time, he was just a kid enjoying chowing down in New York.

When he was 5, his family moved to Florida so his dad could coach swimming, and he was taught to swim by both parents ... though he spent more time misbehaving. That all changed when he lost at the Junior Olympics at age 14 and decided he wanted to become a champion.

The kid went on to swim at the University of Florida and was named NCAA Swimmer of the Year ... twice. While in college in 2004, he swam in his first Olympics and took home a team gold medal and an individual silver.

At the 2008 Summer Olympics, he won a bronze medal in his first event, but followed it up with a team gold and his first individual gold in the 200-meter backstroke ... for which he also broke a world record.

The swimming sensation would ultimately participate in 4 Summer Olympics, win 6 gold medals, 3 silver and 3 bronze, and set 2 world records ... though he might be remembered most for being involved in a bonehead scandal in 2016 in Brazil.

Regardless, he's still eyeing a spot on the 2020 Olympics team ... which could make for a nice redemption story. Jeah!

Can you guess who he is?
