The White House is firing back at "South Park" ... after the popular animated TV show brutally roasted Donald Trump to kick off its 27th season last night.

ICYMI ... in the season premiere, Trump is shown in bed with Satan -- hinting he’s down for a little devilish action. But Satan's not into it, and instead takes a jab at the size of Trump’s microscopic weener. Ouch.

WH spokesperson Taylor Rogers tells TMZ ... "This show hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention. President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country’s history – and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump’s hot streak.”

10:48 AM PT -- Jimmy Kimmel has hit back at President Trump by saying he's next ... unclear what that means.

Donald Trump says no late-night comedians are safe ... taking aim at Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon, on the heels of Stephen Colbert telling the prez to "Go f*** yourself."

DT just unleashed on the hosts in a new Truth Social post ... saying, "The word is, and it’s a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is NEXT to go in the untalented Late Night Sweepstakes and, shortly thereafter, Fallon will be gone."

Trump says Kimmel and Fallon have "no talent," and despite being paid millions, are "destroying what used to be GREAT Television."

Adam Sandler took a moment to press pause on the "Happy Gilmore 2" premiere hype -- all to share his heartfelt thoughts on the tragic death of Malcolm-Jamal Warner.

Speaking from the NYC premiere, Adam said he couldn’t believe the news -- and reflected on the good ol' days, remembering how he got his start on "The Cosby Show" as a teen alongside Malcolm-Jamal, who was around the same age.

From taking walks to shooting hoops and hitting parties, Adam told Entertainment Tonight he and Malcolm-Jamal built a real bond while filming the series.

3:40 PM PT -- TMZ has just learned there was a second individual who was injured during the incident. The Costa Rican Red Cross tells TMZ ... the second individual was rushed to a local clinic in critical condition. Their current condition is unknown.

3:10 PM PT -- Judicial Investigation Agency tells TMZ ... Malcolm was rescued by bystanders and taken to the shore where he received aid from the Costa Rican Red Cross. He was declared dead at the scene. The body was sent to the Judicial Morgue in San Joaquín de Flores, Heredia for an autopsy.

10:53 AM PT -- Warner died of asphyxia after he was caught by a high current in the ocean, according to ABC News. His body was reportedly found Sunday afternoon.

"The Cosby Show" alum Malcolm-Jamal Warner has died in Costa Rica at the age of 54, TMZ has learned.

TMZ has a reliable source who says Warner died as a result of an accidental drowning while he was vacationing with his daughter.

As you know, Malcolm‑Jamal Warner straight‑up owned the '80s as Theodore Huxtable on "The Cosby Show," snagging an Emmy nod and locking in his spot in TV royalty.

Those hoping for fun moments from Travis Kelce and Bad Bunny in "Happy Gilmore 2" are in luck ... Julie Bowen tells TMZ Sports the guys are great in the flick!!

Bowen -- who's reprising her role as Adam Sandler's love interest in the iconic golf movie's sequel -- said out in NYC this week Kelce and Bad Bunny's acting chops are outstanding.

When it came to the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Bowen told us, "He's a star. He's always been a star. He continues to be a star."

Former American actor Cody McMains was just 15 years old when he played Mitch Briggs -- the sex-crazed high school teen and the trouble-making younger brother -- in the 2001 comedy, "Not Another Teen Movie."

McMains was part of an ensemble cast including Chyler Leigh as Mitch's older sister and nerd with glasses-turned hottie, Janey Briggs, Chris Evans as the hot jock with whipped cream drizzled over his hot bod, Jake Wyler, and Jaime Pressly as the hot blonde cheerleader, Priscilla.

Cody also played Kristen Dunst's little brother in "Bring It On."

Theo Von seems disillusioned with the American government right now ... arguing it feels like politicians aren't serving the people like they should be, while giving a few thoughts on the Gaza War and the Epstein files controversy.

We caught up with the comedian at LAX Thursday ... and, we asked him about what he would ask President Donald Trump if the Commander-in-Chief came back on his podcast "This Past Weekend."

Remember ... Trump went on his podcast for a chat back in August, before the election, where he dove into a whole bunch of different topics -- including a discussion about cocaine.

Shane Gillis dominated headlines Thursday morning after his -- hilarious to some, infuriating to others -- ESPYS monologue ... and TMZ Sports has learned the folks at ESPN aren't entertaining what the naysayers are spewin'.

A source with direct knowledge tells us … ESPN appreciated all of Shane's hard work on the show ... which included a live monologue that poked fun at several high-profile athletes, including Caitlin Clark and Megan Rapinoe. He also had some Epstein and Diddy quips during his time on stage.

One of the most popular/unpopular jokes ... "When Caitlin Clark retires from the WNBA, she's going to work at a Waffle House so she can continue doing what she loves most: fist fighting Black women."

Shane Gillis just lit up the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles with some spicy jokes as part of his ESPYS hosting duties ... taking aim at several superstar athletes, including Caitlin Clark.

The 37-year-old comedian grabbed the microphone to kick off ESPN's annual award show ... and he held no punches, touching on plenty of hot-button topics.

He ribbed Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson's relationship, called out Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's propensity to get foul calls ... and he poked fun at Karl-Anthony Towns too.

Pete Davidson is gearing up for his biggest role yet -- fatherhood ... 'cause TMZ has learned he's expecting his first child with girlfriend Elsie Hewitt.

Sources close to the couple tell us Elsie is due this winter and the couple just started telling friends and family. We're told the pair couldn’t be more excited.

As we reported, Pete and Elsie were first linked in March and took their relationship to the next level quickly -- we broke the story that they were officially moving in together by May.

Forget Travis and Jason Kelce singing Bob Seger ... now there's new video of Ray Romano singing karaoke at the same celebrity golf tournament ... and he's covering some Eminem!!!

The comedian grabbed the mic and took the stage at the American Century Celebrity Golf Tournament in Lake Tahoe ... rapping Em's hit "Lose Yourself" as only Ray could.

Ya gotta see the video, which is now making the rounds on social media ... Ray's rapping every single lyric ... but he's going super slow.

9:14 AM PT -- Rosie O’Donnell just took a swipe at Donald Trump after he claimed he was looking into taking away her American citizenship.

In a fiery social media post, she calls 47 a "criminal con man sexual abusing liar out to harm our nation to serve himself" who despises that she speaks out against him.

While he called her a threat to America, O'Donnell labeled him a "a dangerous old soulless man with dementia who lacks empathy compassion and basic humanity."

She also reposted a pic on IG ... calling Trump a "F***ing infestation."

President Donald Trump is ready to wash his hands -- and America's -- clean of Rosie O’Donnell ... 'cause he's threatening to revoke her citizenship status.

In a seemingly unprompted post on his Truth Social platform Saturday morning, the prez shared a post declaring he's giving "serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship" because she's "not in the best interests of our Great Country."

He added ... "She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!"

He did not specify how the actress and television host is a threat to all of humanity. Notably, a president is not able to revoke the citizenship of "persons born or naturalized in the United States," per the 14th Amendment to the Constitution.

Pete Davidson and girlfriend Elsie Hewitt had a busy Fourth of July ... which we now know was filled with a mixture of super sweet and very sexy moments.

The model just posted a series of IG snaps ... most from a few days ago -- but Elsie captioned the gallery "some happi & grateful moments that got me thru a weird chaotic month" -- so some must've been from June.

As you can see ... she shared loved-up moments with Pete ... and she also dropped a couple of fire snaps that showed off her toned bikini body and highlighted her busty assets.

"The Bear" quickly made its way from the small screen into the hearts and minds of viewers following its debut in 2022.

And part of the show's secret recipe has proven to be its stellar cast, who've taken home plenty of awards for their work on the FX on Hulu series.

We're going to check out what the stars of the show have to say about what makes working on the hit show so special for them.

Making his way to the ring from Philly, standing at a whopping 5 feet 2.5 inches backed by a pack of washboard abs ... IT'S KEVIN HART! And, his worthy opponent? He may not be on the field any longer, but this ballin' zaddy can still get it at 6 feet 4 inches, it's Tom Brady!

Both gents looking fine, but which swole dude is receiving your heart hart eyes' emoji? Kevin in the black shorts, or Tom in the towel?

Margaret Cho is airing out long-held frustrations with Ellen DeGeneres -- revealing a decades-long rift that left her feeling dismissed and disrespected.

Cho appeared on "The Kelly Mantle Show" podcast on Friday and didn’t hold back while recounting her uncomfortable dynamic with the former daytime talk show host.

"Ellen was really weird and not nice to me for most of my career," Cho said. "I opened for her in the 1980s, when she was a headliner in comedy clubs. Later, when I would do her talk show in the 2000s, she would act like we just met!"
