Joe Biden is catching heat online after pausing a speech at Syracuse University to say a Trustee is a doppelganger for Barack Obama ... and it's all on video.

Check out this clip from Biden's speech Tuesday at his alma mater ... he's on stage for the unveiling of his portrait at the University's College of Law when things take an unexpected turn. The former Commander-in-Chief suddenly calls Syracuse Board Chairman Jeffrey Scruggs up to the podium and tells the crowd Jeffrey looks a lot like none other than ... President Obama.

The chittering sounds from the crowd lead us to believe that the comment was laughed off ... but the audience on social media is not as forgiving.

Can you guess which Hollywood hottie put her rockin' hot bod on full display in this eye-popping shot?!

She's a makeup artist who regularly shares tutorials and vlogs ... don't knock her out of the reality TV world either -- she was on Netflix's "Hype House" and made a cameo on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills."

Slide into the gallery for the reveal ... then put your YouTube knowledge on the line with the word search below:

Dianna Russini -- the reporter spotted getting cozy with Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel in Arizona last month -- has resigned from her job with The Athletic.

The NFL insider submitted a letter to her employer on Tuesday ... saying she has handled her responsibilities with "professionalism and dedication" throughout her career ... and she stands by every story featuring her byline.

Russini -- who joined the outlet in 2023 after leaving ESPN -- said she's leaving not because she did anything wrong ... but because of the "self-feeding speculation that is simply unmoored from the facts."

Guy Fieri was caught on camera shaking Andrew Tate's hand at UFC 327 over the weekend ... and has been getting dragged on social media for it.

On Saturday, the Food Network star was filmed dapping up the red-pill podcaster and hand-hugging with Andrew's brother, Tristan Tate.

Fans expressed their disgust over the interaction ... slamming the celeb for playing nice with the brothers, who have been accused of allegedly committing some pretty heinous sex crimes.

Influencer Ashlee Jenae was staying in a luxury villa on an African island when she was found unconscious in her room and pronounced dead at the hospital ... and now the hotel is speaking out amid the tragedy.

Ashlee and her fiancé, Joe McCann, were shacking up at Zuri Zanzibar ... and hotel management tells us they are "deeply saddened by a tragic incident involving one of our guests."

Zuri Zanzibar management adds, "Our sincerest thoughts and sympathies go out to the family and loved ones during this painful time. We are providing our full cooperation to the local authorities and the U.S. Embassy."

Alix Earle and Alex Cooper's drama may be playing out loud now ... but TMZ has learned there's no single explosive moment behind the tension .... just a slow burn that's boiling over again.

Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... the friction dates back to when Earle teamed up with Cooper to launch her "Hot Mess" podcast under The Unwell Network. At first, things were solid, but over time, their dynamic shifted, and the two stopped seeing eye to eye.

We're told as Earle's Unwell contract was coming to a close in February 2025, that's when the relationship really started to unravel. Our sources say Cooper and her network were not offering Earle what she felt she was worth. Our sources say it wasn't just one issue, but a combination of both business and personal disagreements that made it difficult for them to move forward together.

We're getting a look at Natasha Lyonne the night before her flight meltdown last week ... out having a blast with some buds with a mic in her hand.

TMZ obtained video of Natasha laughing, singing and clearly in her element at The Naughty Pig in West Hollywood last Monday for a low-key karaoke evening.

We're told Natasha hit the high notes with Cornelius James and Ryan Mirvis from the Comedy Store, jumping into a performance of Joe Cocker's version of "With a Little Help From My Friends" that had the bar locked in.

The "Tomb Raider" series has been shut down for a couple of weeks after star Sophie Turner suffered an injury ... but TMZ has learned Lara Croft is back!

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... production on the highly anticipated Amazon series has resumed after a pause due to the actress getting injured. We hear the pause will not impact the production schedule.

As we previously reported ... Sophie suffered an undisclosed injury -- and she was sidelined for a couple of weeks. We hear that although ST is doing several of her own stunts for the series, she was not hurt while on the clock.

Ashlee Jenae's family is seeking answers after her tragic death in Tanzania, and it sounds like they will go to great lengths to figure out what happened to her ... including a possible trip to Africa for a face-to-face with officials.

The late influencer's mother, Yolanda, tells TMZ ... Ashlee’s father, Harry, went to Washington, D.C. today to meet with the U.S. Embassy and State Department.

We're told Harry wanted to go in person to see if the family could help get answers from authorities in Zanzibar, where Ashlee was traveling with her fiancé, Joe McCann, when she died.

Influencer Ashlee Jenae died during a trip to Tanzania with her fiancé, Joe McCann, earlier this month ... and police are actively investigating.

According to a local outlet, police initially believed the social media star's death was a suicide after she was found unconscious in her villa at Zuri Zanzibar ... but her family still has questions regarding the "suspicious" circumstances of her passing.

Here's a timeline of her last days:

Taryn Manning has had a steady stream of police activity at her home over the past year … with multiple calls ranging from alleged threats to mysterious 911 hang-ups ... TMZ has learned.

According to 911 dispatch logs, obtained by TMZ, officers have been sent to the "Orange Is the New Black" star's Palm Springs, California residence at least five separate times since the beginning of last year.

On January 3 of this year, officers were dispatched to “keep the peace,” and assistance was provided at the scene -- typically meaning cops were there to prevent a dispute from escalating.

President Trump is convinced drinking soda kills cancer cells in the body because pouring soda on grass kills the grass ... at least according to Dr. Oz.

Trump's Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Administrator was on a podcast with his boss' son, Donald Trump Jr., when the topic shifted to the Prez's love for Diet Coke.

Dr. Oz says Trump makes a point to drink Diet Coke and eat candy in front of him and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. ... and tell them why the junk food is anything but.

Sherrone Moore was facing 6 months in jail, but the former Michigan head football coach won't spend another minute behind bars ... he was just sentenced to probation, entirely avoiding jail.

The 40-year-old coach appeared before the honorable J. Cedric Simpson in a Washtenaw County courthouse on Tuesday afternoon, where he was sentenced after pleading no contest to two charges, malicious use of a telecommunication device in a domestic relationship and trespassing.

Ultimately, Moore, 40, will be on probation for 18 months. He was also ordered to pay around $1,000 in fines.

Jessica McClure Morales -- who shot to fame as "Baby Jessica" way back in 1987 after being rescued from a deep well when she was 18 months old -- was arrested in Texas following an alleged domestic disturbance ... and she's facing a criminal charge.

Jessica, who is now 40 years old, was taken into police custody Saturday night after an alleged incident at her Midland County home ... and she's charged with assault causing bodily injury involving family violence ... TMZ has confirmed.

It's unclear what the alleged domestic disturbance involved ... but the Midland County Sheriff's Office responded to Jessica's home around 10 PM Saturday and made an arrest.

Pacman Jones can breathe a massive sigh of relief ... the former NFL star was sentenced to five years of probation in his officer assault case on Tuesday -- after staring a year and a half in prison right in the eyes.

Jones went before Judge Patricia Summe in Kenton County, Kentucky on Tuesday ... wearing a dark-colored suit for the occasion.
