Matt Rife got into it online with a 6-year-old kid who criticized him over his recent Netflix special -- something for which he has yet to make amends ... according to the boy's mom.

Here's the deal ... the comedian is still facing backlash over his special from last month, which included cracks about domestic violence, and which made women, in general, the butt of a lot of his jokes -- this despite the fact that the vast majority of his fans are women.

Rife was getting crapped on left and right for a good long while -- something he relished -- and the other week, TikToker Bunny Hedaya's young son got in on the action as well.

She posted a stitch to one of Rife's jokes from the special -- during which he's making fun of women for relying on astrology and getting a "rings" punchline in there with the planets -- and it featured her boy who corrected MR on which planet actually featured rings ... Saturn.

The kid also said Rife was "mean to girls" ... so not a huge burn, but one to which Rife apparently felt the need to respond. He wrote in a since-deleted comment, "Jupiter also has (a) ring. OH!... and Santa isn't real. Your mom buys you presents with the money she makes on OnlyFans. Good luck." Yeah, it ain't great ... and worse yet, Bunny says he hasn't said sorry.

She tells TMZ ... while Rife has yet to apologize, she says she would only accept one through changed behavior -- namely, switching up his tune on how he talks to/about women. However, she says based on what she's seen about him ... she ain't holding her breath.

Bunny says Rife doesn't seem like the type of guy to take accountability -- see his response to the special needs helmet joke controversy -- and she believes he needs to look deep inside himself to figure out why he feels so much aggression toward women and children, and to attempt to heal himself once he figures out the root cause.

Anna "Chickadee" Cardwell's battle with cancer was something that was well-documented, TMZ has learned ... and will be shared with fans in an upcoming season of Mama June's reality series.

Family sources tell TMZ ... Anna was very open about her health issues, and wanted it to be included on "Mama June: From Not to Hot" so people could better understand the struggles she went through, and those of cancer patients, in general.

She also wanted fans to know everything she faced, since she was always candid with them.

We're told Anna had no problems with the production team filming her journey, and the crew was by her side just hours before she passed away -- Anna was in hospice for a little over 3 weeks toward the end, and she was open to documenting everything.

Sources say production felt it was best to not be there when she passed, and they won't be there to record the funeral, either ... despite Anna being alright with it, the crew wanted to give the family some privacy while they mourn.

As we reported, Anna was suffering from stage 4 adrenal carcinoma and died on Saturday -- we were told Anna requested that her fans be able to attend her open-casket funeral, and our sources say the family's honoring that as one of her last wishes.

Shannen Doherty y su marido separado tienen un recuerdo muy distinto sobre cómo terminaron. La versión de él niega las acusaciones de infidelidad que ella ha alegado en su podcast, pero Shannen asegura que esa es "la verdad".

Esta es la cuestión, Shannen fue noticia la semana pasada cuando dijo en su podcast 'Let's Be Clear' que se había sometido a una cirugía para extirpar un tumor cerebral después de enterarse de que Kurt Iswarienko "había estado teniendo un romance durante dos años" y que su matrimonio de 11 años estaba "esencialmente destruido".

Fuentes cercanas a Kurt están cuestionando la narrativa de Shannen, diciéndole a TMZ que Kurt y Shannen en realidad habían estado viviendo vidas separadas al menos dos años antes de su cirugía en enero de 2023, y que él había sido franco con ella sobre empezar una nueva relación más mientras estaban viviendo en diferentes estados.

En su podcast, Shannen dice: "Entré a esa cirugía temprano en la mañana y lo hice después de enterarme de que mi matrimonio estaba básicamente acabado... me sentí tan traicionada".

Sin embargo, nuestras fuentes dicen que Kurt le dijo a Shannen de su nueva relación justo después del Año Nuevo de 2023. Nos dicen que Shannen se cayó unos días después de que Kurt le dijera acerca de la otra mujer, y fue entonces cuando fue enviada a realizarse una resonancia magnética y los médicos descubrieron su tumor cerebral.

Shannen niega totalmente esa versión de los hechos. El martes por la noche, en su Instagram, la calificó de "mentira absoluta" y acusó a las personas relacionadas con Kurt de tratar de eludir la verdad.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que Kurt estaba viviendo en Texas en ese momento y Shannen en California cuando le descubrieron el tumor cerebral. Él voló de regreso y fue a las citas con los médicos con ella, solo para que ella le dijera la mañana de la cirugía que no lo quería allí.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que Shannen haciendo parecer que Kurt había estado husmeando a sus espaldas no es exacto, pero obviamente, el momento fue bastante duro.

TMZ publicó la historia, Shannen pidió el divorcio en abril, cuando su representante, Leslie Sloane, nos dijo: "El divorcio es la última cosa que Shannen quería. Desafortunadamente, sintió que no le quedaba otra opción. Puedes contactar a la agente de Kurt, Collier Grimm en PICTUREKID, ya que está íntimamente involucrada".

Shannen y Kurt se casaron en 2011 y ella fue diagnosticada con cáncer en 2015. Nuestras fuentes dicen que él estuvo con ella durante todo el proceso de diagnósticos, tratamientos y visitas al médico.

Nos dicen que los tratamientos de Shannen funcionaron al principio, pero el cáncer regresó y a finales de 2020 su matrimonio no estaba funcionando. La pandemia de COVID jugó un papel importante en el deterioro de la relación.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que Kurt todavía quería ser parte de su vida y estuvo alquilando casas en su área entre enero y julio de 2021 mientras intentaban resolver las cosas, pero cuando no pudieron, se mudó a Austin y finalmente conoció a la otra mujer.

Shannen Doherty and her estranged husband have a much different memory of how and when they split up -- his version flies in the face of the infidelity she alleged on her podcast, but Shannen is doubling down on "the truth."

Here's the deal ... Shannen made headlines last week when she went on her new 'Let's Be Clear' podcast and claimed she had surgery to remove a brain tumor right after learning Kurt Iswarienko "had been carrying on an affair for two years," and their 11-year marriage was "essentially over."

Sources close to Kurt are disputing Shannen's narrative, telling TMZ ... Kurt and Shannen had actually been living separate lives for 2 years before her January 2023 surgery, and he had been upfront about starting a new relationship with someone else while they were living in different states.

On her podcast, Shannen said ... "I went into that surgery early in the morning and I went in after I found out that my marriage was essentially over ... I felt so betrayed.”

However, our sources say Kurt told Shannen of his new relationship just after New Year's of 2023. We're told Shannen fell a few days after Kurt told her about the other woman, and that's when she was sent for an MRI, doctors discovered her brain tumor and then she had the surgery.

Shannen's fully shooting down that version of events -- Tuesday night, on her Instagram, she called it "an absolute lie" and accused people connected to Kurt of trying to skirt the truth.

The sources close to Kurt say he'd been living in Texas, and Shannen was in California, when doctors found the tumor. but he flew back and went with her to doctor appointments ... only for her to tell him the morning of the surgery she didn't want him there.

Our sources say Shannen making it seem like Kurt had been sneaking around her back isn't accurate, but obviously, the timing was pretty rough.

TMZ broke the story ... Shannen filed for divorce in April, when her rep, Leslie Sloane, told us, "Divorce is the last thing Shannen wanted. Unfortunately, she felt she was left with no other option. You can contact Kurt's agent, Collier Grimm at PICTUREKID as she is intimately involved."

BTW ... the new woman Kurt revealed to Shannen was indeed Collier, and we're told they're still together.

Shannen and Kurt tied the knot way back in 2011, and she was diagnosed with cancer in 2015 ... with our sources telling us he was there for her throughout all of her early diagnosis, treatments and doctor visits.

We're told Shannen's treatments worked at first, but the cancer came back and by late 2020 their marriage was not working ... with the COVID pandemic playing a role.

Our sources say Kurt still wanted to be part of her life, and was renting homes in her area from January 2021 to July 2021 while they tried to figure things out -- but when they couldn't, he moved to Austin, and ultimately met Collier.

Chad Johnson's been in a similar spot to the one Kadarius Toney is currently in ... and he's telling TMZ Sports he's got one big piece of advice for the Chiefs star to get out of it all -- ignore the haters.

"F 'em," he said.

Johnson sent the message loud and clear on Tuesday -- after Toney received a ton of criticism for lining up offsides on what would have been the potential game-winning play against the Bills at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday.

"As a former player, I've also been in the situations before where I've made mistakes and those mistakes have cost the game," the ex-Bengals wide receiver said. "It's happened to me. It happened to me early in my career."

Johnson said the moment he remembers specifically went down during a game against the Colts -- when he dropped a key pass that could've led to a Cincinnati W.

"You know, you go back to the drawing board," Johnson said of how he fixed it all, "you bust your ass this week in practice, and you make sure you make up for that play. And, I think [Toney] will do that."

Johnson said Toney should learn a lot about the play moving forward -- telling us the young wideout will now know to make sure to keep his eye contact with officials long enough to ensure he's always onside.

"It's a mistake that Kadarius can fix," Johnson said. "And, I think he'll be OK."

Pardison Fountaine is officially putting the Hottie era behind him after his split with Megan Thee Stallion -- he's got a new girl, new music and even new listening habits!!!

TMZ Hip Hop chopped it up with the versatile artist/songwriter Tuesday, and he got a kick out of being labeled in a "public relationship" with his new boo, dancehall star Jada Kingdom.

Pardi says he's very much claiming JK, but says all he did was step out for a date night -- and it was the public who blew up their spot. Whoops!

The fan interest shouldn't come as a surprise to Pardi -- he was in a very high-profile relationship with Meg and felt some blowback last month when she dropped her "Cobra" diss track toward him.

Pardi operates in the lover's lane, not a fighter's ring, and gave props to all the female rappers on his radar -- Sexxy Redd, Doja Cat, Latto and GloRilla all rank at the top for him.

He admits he even gave Nicki Minaj's new "Pink Friday 2" album a listen ... a decision that would've put him in the crosshairs had he still been with Meg.

Pardison Fountaine está oficialmente dejando atrás la era Hottie después de su ruptura con Megan Thee Stallion, ¡tiene una nueva chica, nueva música e incluso nuevos hábitos de escucha!

TMZ Hip Hop charló con el versátil artista y compositor el martes y él se divirtió al ser etiquetado en una "relación pública" con su nueva novia, la estrella de dancehall Jada Kingdom.

Pardi dice que está interesado en Jada, y todo lo que hizo fue tener una cita nocturna y el público simplemente explotó.

El interés de los fans no debería ser una sorpresa para Pardi, que estaba en una relación de muy alto perfil con Meg y sintió algo de retroceso el mes pasado cuando ella lanzó su "Cobra" contra él.

Pardi opera desde el amor y no desde la violencia, y le mostró su apoyo a todas las raperas en su radar Sexxy Redd, Doja Cat, Latto y GloRilla todas están en la parte superior para él.

Admite que incluso escuchó el nuevo álbum de Nicki Minaj "Pink Friday 2", una decisión que le habría puesto en el punto de mira si todavía hubiera estado con Meg.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's philanthropy org was said to have been in the red this year -- but there's missing context ... including the fact it's got big-time $$$ stashed away.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... a recent report suggesting the Archewell Foundation was strapped for cash after suffering a substantial decrease in revenue between 2021-2022 is misleading, 'cause it doesn't take into account the org is not a corporation, folks.

In other words, these sorts of things can't simply be measured in mere profit and loss -- as our sources say the Archewell Foundation is still humming like it was when it first launched back in 2020 ... and actually ended the year with more than $8 million in the bank.

What the report harped on is the fact that in the org's most recent tax filing, it shows donations were down between '21 and '22 ... going from $13 million in 2021 to just about $2 million in 2022. The foundation also notes it (technically) came in at a loss at about $674k since its costs somewhat outpaced its revenue this past year ... but like we said, context.

We're told it's not uncommon for donations to decrease after a charitable org's debut year, and oftentimes the first year is often the strongest.

The Archewell Foundation smartly stored that huge influx of cash they got between 2020 and 2021 and are now divvying up the dough based on their long-term goals. So, yes ... donations are down, but AF is not out of the philanthropy game.

There was also a claim in the report in question that Archewell's CEO James Holt had received a fat pay raise between 2021 and 2022 -- jumping up in salary from $59k to about $227k. We're told that '21 figure was just a partial year of Holt's pay -- however, the source was not specific about Holt's full annual salary.

Se dijo que la organización filantrópica de Meghan Markle y el príncipe Harry había estado en números rojos este año, pero hay un contexto que falta y es que tiene una gran cantidad de $$$ guardado.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo le dicen a TMZ que un reciente informe que sugiere que la Fundación Archewell estaba corta de dinero en efectivo es engañosa. La revelación surge después de que esta sufriera una disminución sustancial de los ingresos entre 2021-2022, pero eso es engañoso porque no considera que la organización no es una corporación.

En otras palabras, este tipo de cosas no se pueden medir simplemente por los meros beneficios y pérdidas. De acuerdo a nuestras fuentes, la Fundación Archewell todavía está en el ruedo como lo hizo cuando se lanzó por primera vez en 2020, y de hecho, terminó el año con más de $8 millones en el banco.

El informe insistía en que la declaración de impuestos más reciente de la organización, mostraba que las donaciones se han reducido entre 2021 y 2022, pasando de $13 millones en 2021 a solo alrededor de $2 millones en 2022. La fundación también señala que (técnicamente) entró en una pérdida de alrededor de $674k, ya que sus costos superaron sus ingresos este año ... Pero como hemos dicho, hay un contexto.

Nos dicen que no es raro que las donaciones disminuyan después del primer año de una organización benéfica y a menudo el primer año es el más fuerte.

La Fundación Archewell almacenó inteligentemente el dinero que recibieron entre 2020 y 2021 y ahora están repartiéndolo en función de sus objetivos de largo plazo. Así que, sí, las donaciones han bajado, pero la Fundación no está fuera del juego de la filantropía.

También hubo una afirmación en el informe en cuestión de que el CEO de Archewell, James Holt había recibido un aumento de sueldo entre 2021 y 2022, pasando de $ 59k a unos $ 227k. Nos dicen que la cifra de 2021 corresponde solo a un año parcial de la paga de Holt. Sin embargo, la fuente no especificó su salario anual completo.

Alyssa Milano's mother is pushing back on Shannen Doherty's claim they blocked her from seeing Holly Marie Combs shortly after she'd had surgery to remove a tumor from her uterus.

Lin Milano tells TMZ ... she categorically denies the story, and questions how it would have been even possible for them to block Shannen from entering a hospital room. She also refutes Shannen's assertion that she and Alyssa tried to create a weird wedge between SD and HMC on the set of "Charmed."

She tells us she couldn't have possibly been meddling behind the scenes because she wasn't on set daily, as her daughter was grown, and also ... she had her own business to focus on.

Lin says she was merely great friends with Holly, who oftentimes came over for dinner as her parents didn't live near -- adding their bond strengthened during Holly's pregnancy.

As for Shannen's claims of competitiveness between herself and Alyssa, Lin says the show's EP, Aaron Spelling, loved them equally ... so there was no need for tension between them.

On the whole, Lin is sad Shannen feels this way in her heart ... and is sorry she's going through her cancer battle alone without parents to support her -- adding she wishes the best for her.

This comes after Shannen was adamant on her "Let's Be Clear with Shannen Doherty" podcast ... telling former costar Holly that 24 hours after Holly's surgery, she went to see her ... but was blocked by AM and her mom.

El exnovio y ex colaborador de Cassie, Ryan Leslie, dice que están a punto de reanudar su relación en el frente musical, mientras ella se prepara para salir de gira.

TMZ Hip Hop se puso al día con RLes el martes en Nueva York y le preguntamos si había visto algo en el pasado que pudiera corroborar las acusaciones de Cassie en la demanda contra Diddy, que se resolvió recientemente a través de un acuerdo.

Ryan y Cassie salieron a mediados de la década de los 2000 y trabajaron juntos en la música en ese entonces, pero nos dice que sus interacciones con Diddy se produjeron más adelante, cuando él ya no estaba cerca.

Ryan dice que él y Cassie volvieron a conectar a finales del 2017, cuando falleció su ex mánager Ed Woods. Y está claro que han seguido en contacto desde entonces. Ryan Leslie nos dio una gran actualización, revelando que ella está planeando regresar a la música con una gira, lo que también podría significar el lanzamiento de nueva música en el horizonte.

RLes es un productor polifacético que ha incursionado en la tecnología a lo largo de los años y aunque está prestando mucha atención a la inteligencia artificial, dice que está realmente centrado en ayudar a los artistas a asegurar su futuro financiero.

Cassie's ex-boyfriend and former collaborator Ryan Leslie says they're about to resume their relationship on the music front, as she prepares to hit the road.

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with RLes Tuesday in NYC, and we asked if he'd seen anything in the past that would corroborate the allegations in Cassie's lawsuit against Diddy, which they recently settled.

Ryan and Cassie dated in the mid-2000s, and worked on music together at the time, but he tells us her interactions with Diddy came later, when he wasn't around.

Ryan says he and Cassie reconnected at the end of 2017 when their ex-manager Ed Woods died and it's clear they've stayed in touch since then. He gave us a big update, revealing she's planning on making a music comeback in the form of a tour, which could also mean there's new music on the horizon.

RLes is a multifaceted producer who's been known to dabble in technology over the years, and while he's paying close attention to the AI movement, he says he's really focused on helping artists secure their financial futures.

Even Oprah, the bonafide queen of TV, needs some comforting now and then ... she says she was totally down for Drew Barrymore's caressing, even if some fans were cringing.

We got O Tuesday morning as she headed into the Empire State Building, and she told us she enjoyed the personal touch she got on "The Drew Barrymore Show" ... saying it actually provided her some solace.

In fact, you could say Drew put the pressure on Stedman Graham -- Oprah told us she's now demanding the same arm-stroking treatment from her longtime partner!

Oprah adds she thought it was endearing, and loved Drew for always being herself.

While she didn't mind Drew being all over her ... it was too much to handle for some viewers who criticized the host for creepily invading Oprah's personal space by propping her hand under her chin and holding it there.

Incluso Oprah, la genuina reina de la televisión, necesita un poco de consuelo de vez en cuando ... Ella dice que se sintió totalmente a gusto con las caricias de Drew Barrymore, incluso si a algunos fans les pareció perturbador.

Nos encontramos con Oprah el martes por la mañana cuando iba de camino al Empire State Building, y nos dijo que disfrutó el toque personal que recibió en "The Drew Barrymore Show", diciendo que en realidad le dio un poco de alegría.

¡De hecho, se podría decir que Drew puso la presión sobre Stedman Graham! Oprah nos dijo que ahora espera el mismo tratamiento de su pareja desde hace mucho tiempo.

Oprah añadió que le encanta Drew por siempre ser ella misma.

Aunque a ella no le importó que Drew estuviera encima de ella, esto sí fue demasiado para algunos espectadores que criticaron a la presentadora por invadir espeluznantemente el espacio personal de Oprah apoyando su mano debajo de su barbilla y manteniéndola allí.

Mama June is taking over mama duties for one of her late daughter Anna "Chickadee" Cardwell's kids ... TMZ has learned.

Family sources tell TMZ ... Mama June is currently in custody of Anna's 11-year-old daughter Kaitlyn.

Anna, who died Saturday after a difficult battle with cancer, had 2 daughters with 2 different men ... and our sources say the younger child, 8-year-old Kylee, is now living with her biological father, Michael.

We're told the family had a plan in place for Kylee to move in with her dad should something happen to Anna, who was diagnosed, back in January, with stage 4 cancer.

Our sources say Kaitlyn and Mama June have a very close bond -- she's June's first grandchild -- so, everyone in the family agrees, moving her to Grandma's house is the best situation for her. We're also told June plans to become Kaitlyn's legal guardian.

As we first told you, Anna secretly married her partner, Eldridge Toney, back in March after learning she had cancer.

We're told Eldridge has a very close relationship with both Kaitlyn and Kylee -- though he's not their biological father -- and he will continue to be involved in both their lives as well.

Bianca Censori's looking like a whole new woman -- it just takes a lap dance to finally see her grinning, relaxing and thoroughly enjoying an afternoon outing with Kanye West in Miami.

Of course, Bianca's been her husband's muse ... serving as a blank and expressionless canvas for his artistic creativity -- no matter how bizarre -- which is why this video of her cutting loose Sunday is so interesting.

With Ye distracted by others, the Aussie model focused her attention on DJ Sky High Baby ... who got to work twerking in Bianca's lap -- and as you can see, she was totally diggin' it.

The stone-cold Bianca we're used to seeing was long gone, as she encouraged her friend's erotic moves. Good thing Mrs. West was dressed for the occasion, in an eye-popping sheer get-up.

She's also vibed along to the music blasting at Dukunoo Jamaican Kitchen -- the same spot where Kanye played some of his new music from his upcoming album with Ty Dolla $ign.

It's a rare light-hearted, carefree sighting of Bianca ... who's trekked around the world with Kanye this year -- although, his critics think he's treated her more like an accessory during their travels.

Case in point, the couple drew the gaze of onlookers while hitting up Art Basel the same day ... with Bianca in her skintight, sheer outfit and teddy-in-hand.
