Philadelphia Eagles Get Custom WWE Championship Belt ... from Triple H!!
The Philadelphia Eagles are champions of the NFL ... and now they got the championship bling to match!
On the heels of their huge Super Bowl win, WWE exec Triple H got a custom world heavyweight championship belt done up for the Eagles ... a gold-plated replica of the strap belonging to current WWE champ A.J. Styles.
"To quote Zach Ertz, you’re 'the World Champions' .... so you need a World Title! Congratulations," HHH said.
The belt looks awesome ... but it's worth noting that HHH -- a native of the Boston area -- also got one made for the Patriots last year.
Guess there are no hard feelings.

A-Rod Heavily Booed By Patriots Fans ... During J Lo's Super Bowl Concert
Oh no, J Lo ... WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
Here's Jennifer Lopez trying to cheer up a sad bunch of Patriots fans after the Super Bowl by bringing out her ex-Yankee BF, Alex Rodriguez, on stage ... and it went exactly how you'd think it would.
From the moment A-Rod hit the stage, he was welcomed with a massive amount of boos from the crowd of probably-Red Sox fans. The couple tried some cute banter ... but the boos didn't stop.
Gotta admit ... it took major cojones for A-Rod to agree to join Lopez on stage. Then again, it's not like he had any other option.
Eventually J Lo gave up and went back to her music ... 'cause Sox fans don't forget.

He wasn't the only one -- NFL studs Todd Gurley and Melvin Ingram also came through U.S. Bank Stadium rockin' Meek ... while LeBron shouted out the #FreeMeek movement on social media.
Of course, Towns was also PUMPED on the outcome of the game ... yelling like a maniac and proudly proclaiming, "I ain't never been so happy!"

Larry Nassar Sentenced Again Gets Up to 125 Years in Prison
Larry Nassar was just sentenced to an additional 40-125 YEARS in prison ... less than 2 weeks after a judge signed his "death warrant" with a 40-175 year term in a separate case.
This time, the disgraced ex-Team USA doctor was being charged for sexual assault crimes he committed at Twistars USA Gymnastics Club in Lansing, Michigan.
Last week, he heard impact statements from dozens of his victims ... and was nearly attacked by the father of 3 girls he abused.
Nassar issued an apology to his victims in court ... but the judge wasn't buying it, telling Larry -- "I am not convinced that you understand what you did was wrong. Clearly you are in denial. You don't get it."
FYI, Nassar was already sentenced to 60 years for child porn crimes ... bringing his minimum years behind bars to 140.
Have fun in prison, scumbag.

Prince Here's Why Fans Are Pissed at Timberlake ...
Forget the hologram drama, Prince fans are still VERY upset over Justin Timberlake's Super Bowl halftime performance ... and it all stems from an interview the Purple One did in 1998.
At the time, Prince sat down with Guitar World Magazine and was asked about the trend of live musicians using technology to duet with someone who had passed away ... think Natalie Cole's version of "Unforgettable" she did with her dad.
Here's what Prince said at the time ...
Guitar World: "With digital editing, it is now possible to create a situation where you could jam with any artist from the past. Would you ever consider doing something like that?"
Prince: "Certainly not. That's the most demonic thing imaginable. Everything is as it is, and it should be. If I was meant to jam with Duke Ellington, we would have lived in the same age. That whole virtual reality thing... it really is demonic. And I am not a demon. Also, what they did with that Beatles song ["Free As a Bird"], manipulating John Lennon's voice to have him singing from across the grave... that'll never happen to me. To prevent that kind of thing from happening is another reason why I want artistic control."
So, when Timberlake used Prince's voice and image to create a duet -- seems like JT did exactly what Prince didn't want.
There's more ...
Sinbad, the comedian, went off on social media about the drama between JT and Prince that started back in 2006 when Timberlake dropped "Sexy Back."
At the time, Prince joked that sexy never left ... and Timberlake responded with a diss verse in "Give It To Me" in which he said to Prince, "Don't hate on me just because you didn't come up with it."
Timberlake later pulled a stunt where he lowered the mic for Prince to mock his height at the Golden Globes.
Sinbad called Timberlake a "punk ass" for the performance -- and seems to want Timberlake to apologize.
Don't hold your breath ...

Kevin Hart Wasted Drunk at Super Bowl ... Kicked Off NFL Network
Kevin Hart got HAMMERED at the Super Bowl -- and was so drunk, he dropped an F-Bomb live on the NFL Network.
Can't really blame Hart ... he's a hardcore Eagles fan and he had just watched his team beat the New England Patriots live in Minnesota.
But when they brought him on the "NFL GameDay Prime" post-game show with Deion Sanders and company ... he was hyped up, slurring and, really, 3-sheets to the wind.
After Deion personally escorted him off the stage, Hart left ... and made a drunken Instagram video trying to explain himself. It's pretty hilarious.
Enjoy the hangover.
FYI, Hart was also straight-up REJECTED trying to sneak into the Eagles' post-game celebration. Probably for the best.
Yoooo. Is that Kevin Hart trying to get past security and being denied?!? 😭😭😭😭 #superbowl pic.twitter.com/gzag0XqmAZ

Larry Nassar Attacked By Victim's Dad 'Gimme 1 Minute with that Bastard'
9:15 AM PT -- Margraves has been released from custody and will not be charged with a crime.
The father of 3 of Larry Nassar's victims went nuclear in a Michigan courtroom moments ago -- violently trying to attack the ex-Team USA doctor in front of the judge in his sentencing case.
Moments before the attack, Randall Margraves -- whose 3 gymnast daughters were victimized by Nassar -- asked the judge if she could grant him 5 minutes alone with that "demon" in a locked room.
When the judge denied his request, he tried to negotiate ... asking for one minute.
When the judge shot that request down, Margraves said he wouldn't let the court stop him -- and rushed at Nassar.
Multiple law enforcement officers rushed in and took Margraves down just before he got his hands on Nassar.
As he was being taken into custody, Margraves said, "I want that son of a bitch. Give me one minute with that bastard."
He was ultimately removed from the courtroom in handcuffs.
