Altercations

Erika Kirk's tired of all the criticism she gets on a daily basis ... and, it sounds like the comedian Druksi may have pushed her over the edge.

Charlie Kirk's widow blasted all her haters during an episode of "The Charlie Kirk Show" ... starting off by talking comedians using "whiteface" to put her on blast.

ICYMI ... this seems to be an obvious reference to a viral video Druski shared back in March, which featured the Black comedian dressed in tons of makeup which did have him looking very similar to the media personality.

Andrew Tate is calling Guy Fieri a "bitch ass n*****" for a total switch up after their friendly UFC meetup that quickly turned into online backlash.

We caught up with Tate in Beverly Hills Tuesday, and he made it clear he’s not buying Guy’s explanation for distancing himself after the viral moment.

As we reported ... Fieri was seen greeting Tate and his brother at the fight in April, but the brief interaction sparked backlash online, with fans dragging Guy for being seen with the controversial influencer. He later claimed he didn’t know them and doesn’t support them.

Michael Madsen is getting dragged to court even in death ... Los Angeles County says the late actor owes his ex-wife a ton of money.

According to new legal docs obtained by TMZ, the Los Angeles County Child Support Services Department claims Michael owes his ex-wife Jeannine Bisignano over $1.2 million in back child-support payments.

The department says the $1,267,573.49 in back child support stems from Michael and Jeannine's divorce judgment, which dates all the way back to March 1995 ... and it looks like Jeannine is entitled to a percentage of payments Michael received in his SAG pension plan.

James Safechuck -- one of Michael Jackson's sexual assault accusers -- says there's no way he's going to watch the new biopic about the King of Pop ... and he doesn't think it should have been produced in the first place.

A photog got Safechuck in Sherman Oaks over the weekend and asked him if he planned to go check out "Michael" on opening weekend ... and Safechuck gave an emphatic "no."

Safechuck says the movie shouldn't have gotten the green light ... he says he doesn't believe in supporting alleged child abusers.

He also reiterated his support for abuse survivors.

Denise Richards and her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers were back in court for their bitter divorce and Denise scored a minor victory during the hearing.

Denise was in court Monday where she made the case to seal sensitive documents. The judge heard testimony and ended up siding with Richards.

As TMZ previously reported ... Denise was ordered to pay Aaron $5K a month in spousal support. When the order came in, Denise reportedly muttered ... "I can't afford it" ... according to The California Post.

When Aaron filed for divorce back in July, he said he had no income and wanted spousal support from Denise, estimating she was grossing over $250K a month from OnlyFans, brand deals, TV gigs, and appearances.

The Houston cop at the center of a viral racist rant video is officially off the force ... because the department says her behavior was beyond the pale.

The Houston Police Department announced Friday it has terminated Officer Ashley Gonzalez ... saying in a statement she is "no longer an employee of the department" following an internal investigation into the shocking viral clip.

According to HPD, Gonzalez was immediately relieved of duty once the department became aware of the video ... and officials say they moved "as fast as legally possible" under state civil service laws to complete the investigation.

Police Chief J. Noe Diaz, Jr. didn’t mince words either ... calling Gonzalez's conduct "abhorrent, disgusting, and entirely unacceptable."

New York State Troopers and an NYPD officer jumped into action upon seeing a burning car on the side of a roadway ... pulling several people to safety in a shocking video.

The NYPD's official X account shared the clip Tuesday morning ... explaining the incident took place back on March 22 on the Grand Central Parkway -- a major throughfare running through Queens.

The video -- cut together from body cam footage -- begins when an officer arrives on the scene ... relaying the situation through a dispatch radio before jumping out of his car. His partner hands him a fire extinguisher and the two rush toward the burning vehicle.

Southwest passengers had to make a detour for a security-related issue ... which ended with cops rushing onto their plane guns blazing.

Video is circulating online that captured the moment that went down Friday ... after a flight leaving Nashville for Fort Lauderdale had to divert to Atlanta.

Check out the clip ... multiple officers outfitted in full tactical gear head down the narrow aisle way toward the back of the plane -- before wrenching a man out of his seat and slapping cuffs on him.

Logan Paul might want to think twice before throwing around that $1 million boxing challenge … because Buffalo Bills star Dion Dawkins says he’s absolutely ready to cash the check and throw hands!

TMZ Sports caught up with the Pro Bowl left tackle, and Dawkins made it clear he’s not just talking trash -- he’s serious about stepping in the ring with the YouTuber-turned-WWE SuperStar.

“I mean, I think when it comes down to it, who's not serious about a million dollars or plus?” Dawkins told us. “If you can fight and you're confident in yourself, everybody should be barking at it or talking about it. Why not?”

Dawkins said he actually has boxing experience … explaining he originally picked it up after hearing that fellow All-Pro lineman Trent Williams trains in the sport.
