Rosie O'Donnell has been spotted for the first time since revealing her facelift ... and we have to say, she's lookin' great!

Check out the clip -- she hopped off the plane at New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport Friday just ahead of the Tonys ... and she was happy to take a compliment about her rejuvenated look.

But she seemed more into focusing on Madonna's appearance ... saying she watched her surprise Times Square concert Thursday, gushing that she looks "pretty damn good."

Na'im Lynn is sticking up for Kevin Hart amid the fallout from Tony Hinchcliffe's controversial roast jokes ... saying people are coming after the wrong guy.

We caught up with Na'im at LAX Thursday, and he told us critics upset that Kevin didn't publicly reprimand Tony during the roast should be directing that energy at Tony himself ... adding if you're gonna make a racial joke, it better be funny -- and Tony's joke absolutely wasn't.

As we reported, Hinchcliffe faced major backlash from fellow comics and George Floyd's family after making a joke about Floyd, along with cracks about lynching and the late husband of comedian Sheryl Underwood.

Adam Carolla got his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame today ... and he used his speech to tease an old pal -- and take a few shots at industry libs.

Jimmy Kimmel was one of the presenters, the duo going back for several years and even had a few shows together ... and JK even got a little emotional when talking about how proud he was of Adam -- even if their politics are night and day.

AC used his time to take shots at Chelsea Handler -- who he included among a list of the worst people in history -- and Mark Ruffalo, who he joked would destroy his star if it was too close to Trump's star. He kidded Kimmel that with Stephen Colbert canned at CBS ... his show has a fighting chance in the ratings.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori were in a funny mood on Memorial Day, hitting L.A.'s Improv for some laughs ... but the real show went down afterward.

TMZ obtained photos of Ye and Bianca exiting the Hollywood Improv through a back door Monday night -- and Bianca looked as if she was hitting the catwalk.

The model was clad in ... well ... her usual tight leggings -- when she's not mostly naked. She also sported a long, thin piece of leather wrapped around her chest that barely covered her you-know-what!

Jennifer Lopez still knows how to make an entrance ... and she made a hell of one Tuesday night at the premiere for her new flick, "Office Romance."

J Lo dropped jaws at The Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood ... wearing a flowing black gown that gave the naughty optical illusion it was showing more skin than it actually revealed.

And if that wasn't enough eye candy for fans ... Jen sure seemed extra chummy with her on-screen love interest, Brett Goldstein, who she's rumored to be dating in real life.

Tony Hinchcliffe is firing back at Chelsea Handler after she ripped him as a racist hack for telling a George Floyd joke at the Kevin Hart roast ... and he's calling her the c-word.

The comedian sounded off on Chelsea on his live podcast, "Kill Tony," saying Chelsea kept coming at him at the roast and "was a bit of a c***."

Tony says Chelsea got a lot of her facts wrong when trying to make jokes at his expense, and he says she didn't even write the material she read off a teleprompter at the roast.

Nikki Glaser had a problem with the George Floyd joke at the Kevin Hart roast, and it's got nothing to do with race ... she says it just wasn't funny.

The comedian shared her critique of some of her fellow roast masters during an interview at the American Music Awards ... saying Tony Hinchcliffe's joke felt forced and didn't land because it didn't make sense.

Nikki says comedians shouldn't steer clear of race ... but that doesn't mean they should just say controversial things simply for the sake of it.

Kevin Hart is in Tony Hinchcliffe's corner after the controversial comic was blasted for a George Floyd "joke" many believe to be racist during Kevin's roast ... and he wants people to quit beating him up for Tony's punchline.

As you know ... Hinchcliffe was torn apart by some comics and the family of George Floyd after he made a tasteless joke about Floyd, as well as quips about lynching and the suicide of comedian Sheryl Underwood's late husband.

Kevin disagrees with the haters, telling "The Breakfast Club" ... Tony is not a racist, and he was fine with the Floyd line in the context of a roast.

Laura Clery is thanking the first responders who rushed to save her after she was crushed beneath a 600-pound refrigerator in a terrifying freak accident at home.

The comedian and social media star shared a video from inside an ambulance while wearing a neck brace ... jokingly asking firefighters, "So I was crushed by a 600-pound fridge ... is that correct?"

Clery later praised the emergency crew on Instagram, calling them "actual heroes" and thanking the firefighters who allegedly broke through her garage door and lifted the massive appliance off her.

William Stiteler -- the guy behind the viral 🎶First Time in San Juan🎶 A.I. song blowing up TikTok and Instagram -- says he never expected the goofy Puerto Rico anthem to become an actual hit ... because he doesn’t even consider himself a musician.

Roll the clip ... the creator of the Saxboy Billy account tells TMZ he writes all the lyrics himself, but says the songs were originally just meant to add comedy to his travel videos online.

"I'm not a musician, baby. I'm a slob," he told us. "I don’t claim this to be music."

Stephen Colbert's final farewell to "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" was memorable mostly for its star power!

Colbert brought out a bunch of A-list celebs Thursday night to help him say goodbye to his show and his fans after over 10 years and 1,800 episodes.

Feast your eyes on these bold-faced names: Paul McCartney, Bryan Cranston, Ryan Reynolds, Paul Rudd, Tim Meadows, Tig Notaro, John Oliver, Seth Meyers, Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, Andy Cohen, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Elvis Costello.

Byron Allen says late nights on CBS are going to look A LOT different when Stephen Colbert steps aside after Thursday's show ... and he says the key to replacing Colbert will be a comedy show that's light on politics and heavy on timeless, inclusive humor.

The billionaire comedian and media mogul joined us on "TMZ Live" Thursday and told us about his vision for filling Colbert's vacated time slot with a couple new shows.

When Colbert goes dark after his final episode, his weeknight hour on CBS will be replaced by "Comics Unleashed With Byron Allen" and another show Byron produces, "Funny You Should Ask."

Chelsea Handler is going scorched earth on Shane Gillis and Tony Hinchcliffe ... saying their “racist” hackery was exactly what she expected at the recent roast of Kevin Hart.

CH unloaded on the comics when she dropped by Deon Cole’s "Funny Knowing You" podcast ... saying she was disgusted by their remarks, especially quips about lynching and Sheryl Underwood’s dead husband, who died by suicide.

Roast viewers could tell Chelsea was not a fan of either during the show ... and she came out guns blazing for both when it was her turn at the mic.

Kevin Hart's company and two of his former employees are in the middle of a nasty court battle over alleged company secrets ... TMZ has learned.   

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, Kevin’s company Hartbeat sued two former employees, Eric Eddings, who started working at the company in 2022, and Lesley Gwam, who was hired in April 2023, back in February.

Per the suit, Hartbeat says the duo had access to extensive confidential and proprietary and trade secret information, financial performance data, partnership strategies, and business plans for Hartbeat’s audio and podcast division.

The "Love on the Spectrum" cast trolls Kevin Hart ... after they caught a stray during his Netflix roast last week.

After Kevin took a swipe at the Netflix hit show during a recent comedy bit, the cast decided they weren’t about to sit quietly ... instead, they lined up one-by-one to absolutely roast the comedian right back.

In the clip, the fan-favorite stars take turns clowning Kevin over everything from his height to his very public marriage drama, with one cast member jokingly asking Kevin what the secret is to "ruining a marriage."

Dani Bowman -- a star on the hit show "Love on the Spectrum" -- is calling out Dwayne Johnson and the TV show "Euphoria" for using the r-word liberally ... saying she feels disrespected.

We caught up with the reality TV personality at Gus & Andy's -- a popular bar & grill in the L.A. suburb Montrose Friday afternoon -- and we asked her about the ableist slur seemingly making a comeback in pop culture.

Bowman expresses her frustration with "Euphoria" first ... saying it's been disheartening to hear the word used so liberally in the first few episodes -- and arguing it's neither funny nor edgy.
