John Travolta Don't Be a Nimrod The Teleprompter Thing Was a Joke

Published | Updated

John Travolta did a funny callback to his "Adele Dazeem" 2014 Oscar blunder ... problem is, a lot of people didn't remember.

Travolta was leaving the Interscope after-party in WeHo Sunday night, when he had to do what funny people dread ... explain his joke. John pretended he couldn't read the teleprompter when he introduced Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban.

You may recall -- or not -- John introduced Idina Menzel at the 2014 Oscars as "Adele Dazeem."

SNL Kellyanne Conway's 'Fatal Attraction' on SNL

Published | Updated

Kellyanne Conway did everything but boil a rabbit on "SNL" ... and it was brutal.

Kate McKinnon channeled her best Glenn Close in an epic "Fatal Attraction" spoof. You gotta see this ... it makes Alec Baldwin's Trump skits look like a love letter.

Plus, Melissa McCarthy returned in top form as Sean Spicer ... easily as hilarious as the first.

Senator Al Franken SNL's In My Past ... But These Trump Skits Are Gold!

Published | Updated

Senator Al Franken says Saturday Night Live is as good as it's ever been with their Donald Trump skits -- and he should know ... as an original writer for the show.

We got the performer-turned-politician in D.C. Sunday, where he gave kudos for SNL's latest Trump spoofs, especially Melissa McCarthy's turn as Sean Spicer. The proof's in the numbers ... SNL had its highest ratings in 6 years as of this week.

Al even touches on his old SNL role as self-help guru Stuart Smalley. Doesn't sound like he's interested in getting back into character anytime soon, though.

Charlie Day Green Man Successfully Distracts Player ... At ASU Game

Published | Updated

GREEN MAN!!

Charlie Day brought out his neon green bodysuit Wednesday night to serve as the PERFECT addition to Arizona State's "Curtain of Distraction" Wednesday night ... and it worked!!

FYI -- The Curtain is what ASU students do to mess with the opposing team's free throw shooters by revealing someone acting like a jabroni as the player is about to shoot.

"It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" fans will easily recognize Charlie's signature tailgating outfit -- and it proved effective, 'cause the Cal player missed his free throw.

As for the game ... ASU could've used some more of Day's distracting skills, 'cause the Bears ran away with the W.

Harambe-Shaped Cheeto Ridic $100k eBay Bid May-eBay BS

Published | Updated

If a Flamin' Hot Cheeto shaped like Harambe the gorilla selling for nearly $100,000 sounds too good to be true, it's because it very well might be ... according to the guy waiting for the dough.

The Cheeto Harambe owner, named Chris, tells us bidding closed at $99,900. Sounds awesome on paper, but Chris says eBay's still contacting the person behind the bid to make sure he/she is serious. If not ... eBay will go down the line, checking with the next highest bidders until someone's willing to pay up.

Chris says the good news is there were several bids over $90k ... so he still stands to make a bundle, plus he was only aiming for a price in the thousands.

Whatever the final sale price, Chris says he plans to split the cash with a coworker who suggested the eBay auction, and also make a donation in Harambe's name to an animal organization.

Right now, the golden Cheeto's just chilling at Chris' home until it finds a new one.

NOT IN MY HOUSE!

George Lopez went nuclear on a woman in his audience ... calling her a bitch and booting her from his show because she reacted poorly to one of his jokes.

It went down Saturday night at the Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix. George quipped, "There are only 2 rules in the Latino family -- don't marry somebody black and don't park in front of our house."

Most people in the crowd burst into laughter except a woman in the front row, who flipped Lopez the bird. And that's all she wrote.

Tom Brady GRAMMAR FAIL At Super Bowl Practice

Published | Updated

Tom Brady is an apostrophe abuser.

Here's Tom at Super Bowl practice on Thursday rocking one of those QB wristbands -- complete with what we believe to be some throwing motion notes.

We don't really know what "Light Light G.P." means ... but we DO know Tom didn't have to put apostrophes in "toes" and "knees."

Then again, who are we to talk ...

Boxing Champ Anthony Joshua Sucks At Dunking Basketball

Published | Updated

Heavyweight boxing champ Anthony Joshua is a freak of an athlete.

6'6", 234 lbs and explosive as all hell.

Yet he sucks at dunking a basketball.

Here's video of the K.O. king getting rocked by the rim at the Under Armour headquarters in Baltimore -- where he's been promoting his upcoming superfight with Wladimir Klitschko.

Don't worry AJ, even superfreak athletes like Dez Bryant get stuffed by the rim every now and then.

Still funny though.

Ray Lewis Whoa Nelly, You've Grown Lip Sync's 'Hot In Herre'

Published | Updated

Here's Ray Lewis showing us all what a live show of "Hot In Herre" would look like if Nelly was 250 pounds ... punishing a lip sync performance of the song.

Ray's on this week's episode of "Lip Sync Battle" on Spike TV ... and we got a little preview clip of his performance of the Nelly classic (it totally is) and the dude's really, really bringing it.

If you're wondering why Ray's going so hard ... it might just be because of his opponent ... Tony Gonzalez, a guy you KNOW Lewis would love to bring down just one more time.

FAN SERVICE

Shia LaBeouf is taking New York by storm -- literally and figuratively -- because his anti-Trump demonstration/performance art is officially a thing for residents and tourists alike.

Shia is committed and at the same time pretty damn lovable as he dances, protests, ties a kid's shoes, mugs with protesters, and on and on.

He's clearly unfazed by Jon Voight's incendiary comments that Shia's protest is treasonous.

'Lethal Weapon' Cop Crashes Set ... Gets Her Depp Bubble Burst

Published | Updated

"Lethal Weapon" star Clayne Crawford was shooting a scene when an LAPD officer busted it up ... purely by accident, but that's not the most embarrassing part for the cop.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... one of their own made the blunder last week while the FOX show was filming near city hall. We're told the director had to cut the action until the cop got out of the way.

To make matters worse, she told everyone afterward her Hollywood faux pas was totally worth it because at least Johnny Depp waved and smiled at her.

Her joy turned to disappointment when she was later told Johnny was nowhere near the set. Turns out her "Depp" was really Crawford ... who does bear a striking resemblance to Donnie Brasco.

Better luck next time, officer.

Steve Harvey My Bad Apologizes to Asian Men

Published | Updated

Steve Harvey caved and apologized after joking that Asian men are not attractive.

The "Family Feud" host mocked Asian men on the 'Steve Harvey' show last week during a segment in which he poked fun at some self-help books ... including one titled "How to Date a White Woman: A Practical Guide for Asian Men."

The comedian tweeted an apology Tuesday, saying, "I offer my humblest apology for offending anyone, particularly those in the Asian community, last week. It was not my intention and the humor was not meant with any malice or disrespect whatsoever."

It's interesting -- Steve said on Jerry Seinfeld's "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" ... comics cave when sponsors are on the line.
