Social Media

A YouTuber's bodyguard punched a guy's lights out -- all of which was caught on video ... and which reeks of déjà vu considering he did this before while working for DaBaby.

We're talking about Jack Doherty, who's pretty famous among the Gen Z crowd ... and who posted a wild clip of a violent altercation that went down Friday night during what looks to be some sort of Halloween party here in L.A. alongside fellow YouTuber Corinna Kopf.

It looks like Jack was arguing with a couple guys who were rolling with Corinna and her crew -- all stemming from an apparent snub she dished out to Jack while at the party -- and they're all bickering back and forth for a while ... until this security dude rolls up.

Eventually, he confronts one of the fellas Jack's facing off with ... and they start to exchange words -- which ultimately ends with JD's hired muscle throwing a haymaker out of nowhere.

The guy who gets punched -- who's way smaller than the bodyguard -- falls straight to the ground ... and his friends (including Corinna) start to yell at the perpetrator, asking him why he did that. The bodyguard backs away and tries cussing them out in his defense.

Jack seemed happy to post the clip online, and he added "context" underneath ... writing, "they were pressing us," which seems to mean that the guys he was initially arguing with were threatening him. But based on the longer version of this incident ... that's iffy at best.

Now, here's the kicker ... this bodyguard was actually wrapped up in something similar a few years back while working for DaBaby -- something the Internet was quick to remember.

We actually covered this at the time ... DB was performing in New Orleans, when he started getting swarmed by fans as he waded into the crowd -- at which point, this same man (who was working for DaBaby) threw a similar punch ... only then, he KO'd a freaking lady.

A closer look shows it is, indeed, the same man ... and we've figured out who the hell he is. He goes by Kane Kongg on social media. He's a content creator himself -- but obviously does bodyguard work on the side for the rich and famous.

Meta de Mark Zuckerberg se aseguró de diseñar Facebook e Instagram para que sean muy difíciles de dejar y el resultado ha sido negativo para la sociedad, al menos esa es la alegación del Fiscal General de Tennessee y otros 41 estados.

Jonathan Skrmetti, el policía más importante del Estado de Voluntarios, se unió a nosotros el miércoles en "TMZ Live" para exponer por qué 41 estados  —y Washington, DC— están demandando a Facebook y a la compañía matriz de Instagram por supuestamente perjudicar a la juventud de nuestra nación.

Alegan que las aplicaciones de redes sociales están diseñadas intencionalmente para aprovechar la forma en que todos estamos conectados, haciendo las plataformas extremadamente adictivas con características como el desplazamiento infinito, recordatorios y notificaciones, solo por nombrar algunas.

Skrmetti dice que Meta es plenamente consciente de que las aplicaciones son difíciles de dejar y lo malo que es para la gente. Dice que causan problemas de sueño, ansiedad, déficit de atención, depresión y suicidio potencial.

En sus ojos, solo hay mucho que los padres pueden hacer para detener a sus hijos de engancharse a las redes sociales, y es en un punto ahora donde el gobierno tiene que intervenir para hacer cambios.

Mark Zuckerberg's Meta made sure to design Facebook and Instagram so they are super hard to quit, and the result has been bad for society ... at least that's the allegation from Tennessee's Attorney General, and 41 other AGs.

Jonathan Skrmetti, the Volunteer State's top cop, joined us Wednesday on "TMZ Live" to lay out why 41 states -- and Washington, DC -- are suing Facebook and Instagram's parent company for allegedly harming our nation's youth.

He says the social media apps are intentionally designed to take advantage of the way we're all wired -- making the platforms extremely addicting with features like infinite scrolling, reminders and notifications, just to name a few.

Skrmetti says Meta is fully aware the apps are hard to quit and bad for folks -- he says they cause sleep deprivation, anxiety, ADD, depression and potential suicide.

In his eyes, there's only so much parents can do to stop their kids from getting hooked on social media, and it's at a point now where the government needs to step in to make changes.

No, Jake Paul was NOT doing bumps of cocaine in the ring after his brother Logan's boxing match last weekend ... so says the Problem Child himself, who's combating the allegations with comedy.

The 26-year-old internet superstar and pugilist was spotted on camera touching his nose as he stood behind his older bro following his win over Dillon Danis in Manchester ... with many going to social media to accuse him of sniffing the booger sugar in plain sight.

Paul addressed it all in his most recent YouTube video ... poking fun at the wild claims by surrounding himself with Coca-Cola cans and tossing a white powder in the air like LeBron James.

"Y'all want some Coke?" Paul asked his friends as he pretended to be drugged out.

After laughing it off, Paul got serious ... saying his gesture was the result of being a sweaty guy -- even zooming in on his nose to show how moist his skin gets from "five minutes of existing."

On top of that, his involvement in the post-fight scuffle certainly didn't help his perspiration problem.

"This is the thing, is I go to brawl in the ring to save my f***ing brother," Paul added. "Forty grown men around me, everyone's huffing and puffing, I'm yelling, 'You bitch, you're lucky I didn't kill you.' and I'm literally drenched in sweat."

"I come out, everyone knows I'm the most sweatiest person in the world. So I get into the ring to like, go be there for my brother and s***, and I put my hat on and I'm literally sweating down my face, so I'm just like this, trying to get the sweat off of my f***ing face."

Paul's girlfriend, Jutta Leerdam, backed her man ... saying she's seen first-hand how seriously he takes care of his body -- and all the haters need to quit trying to create a false image of him.

Influencer Eugenia Cooney's very thin physique has resulted in her local police getting bombarded with calls and emails ... but we're told the YouTuber isn't in any sort of danger.

Concern for Eugenia's well-being ramped up in recent weeks after she posted TikToks of her dancing -- with many in the comments focusing less on the moves and more on her appearance.

A story also came out about her, sparking even more concern -- Greenwich Police Sergeant Brent Reeves tells TMZ ... calls and emails have been coming into his department about Eugenia from all over the world -- even getting people calling from as far away as Egypt and New Zealand.

We're told the callers are looking to make sure she's doing okay and isn't being forced by her mom to make content and keep up her appearance -- a couple of things that Sgt. Reeves says are untrue.

Sgt. Reeves says he's known Eugenia for more than a decade and they have a good relationship ... they even have a special code. She puts a certain object in her videos so he knows everything is alright.

If that object isn't there, however, he'll know to get her help.

The Sarge says Eugenia has always been skinny ... adding they can't really make her eat more if she's at the size that makes her comfortable. He says she's of sound mind and always has a bubbly personality when he chats with her.

Other agencies have checked on her in the past, but we're told she's never met the criteria to force her to get any kind of help.

This isn't the first time fans have been asking Eugenia to get help -- people have reached out over the years, notably in 2019 when YouTube star PewDiePie asked his followers to send her words of positivity.

She's also spoken out in the past about being put on a 5150 hold by her friends when she lived in California ... saying in 2020 she felt betrayed and ambushed.

El delgadísimo aspecto de la influencer Eugenia Cooney ha hecho que la policía de su localidad reciba una avalancha de llamadas y correos electrónicos de preocupación por su salud, pero nos dicen que la YouTuber no corre ningún tipo de peligro.

La preocupación por el bienestar de Eugenia aumentó en las últimas semanas después de que publicara TikToks de su baile, con muchos de los comentarios centrándose en su apariencia más que en sus pasos de baile.

También se supo otra historia sobre ella, que provocó aún más preocupación, según cuenta el Sargento de la Policía de Greenwich, Brent Reeves, a TMZ. Su departamento ha estado recibiendo llamadas y correos sobre Eugenia de todo el mundo, incluso con personas llamando desde lugares tan lejanos como Egipto y Nueva Zelanda.

Nos dicen que las personas quieren asegurarse de que ella está bien y no esté siendo obligado por su madre a hacer el contenido y mantener su apariencia, cosas que el sargento Reeves dice que son falsas.

El oficial comenta que conoce a Eugenia desde hace más de una década y tienen una buena relación. Incluso tienen un código especial. Ella pone cierto objeto en sus videos para que él sepa que todo está bien.

Sin embargo, si ese objeto no está allí, él sabrá que debe pedirle ayuda.

El sargento dice que Eugenia siempre ha sido delgada y añade que en realidad no pueden hacerla comer más si tiene el tamaño que la hace sentir cómoda. También dice que está en su sano juicio y siempre ha tenido una personalidad chispeante cuando hablan.

Otras agencias la han examinado en el pasado, pero nos dicen que nunca ha cumplido los criterios para obligarla a recibir ningún tipo de ayuda.

Esta no es la primera vez que los fanáticos le piden a Eugenia que reciba ayuda. Los usuarios le han tendido la mano a lo largo de los años, en particular en 2019, cuando la estrella de YouTube PewDiePie le pidió a sus seguidores que le enviaran palabras positivas.

También habló en el pasado de que sus amigos la pusieron en retención, por el código 5150, mientras vivía en California, diciendo en 2020 que se sintió traicionada y emboscada.

Emily Blunt is apologizing for insulting an anonymous waitress on TV more than a decade ago -- this after social media resurfaced a clip of her mocking the woman's weight.

The actress issued a full-throated mea culpa to People Mag -- acknowledging a clip from an appearance she made on the 'Jonathan Ross Show' in 2012 ... when she was plugging "Looper" and yukking it up with the host.

At one point, Ross jokes about Americans being "enormous" at Chili's ... citing the size of burgers they get served/eat. Emily laughs and adds her own anecdote to it -- saying a Chili's server who was waiting on her during the filming of "Looper" was, indeed, humongous.

EB recreates the convo, playing up the woman's Southern accent ... and noting that this lady actually recognized Emily. It was mostly light-hearted -- but Twitter wasn't having it. Countless users accused her of fat-shaming ... and, per usual, demanded accountability.

Of course, Emily caved ... saying, "I just need to address this head on as my jaw was on the floor watching this clip from 12-years ago. I’m appalled that I would say something so insensitive, hurtful, and unrelated to whatever story I was trying to tell on a talk show."

She adds, "I’ve always considered myself someone who wouldn’t dream of upsetting anyone so whatever possessed me to say anything like this in that moment is unrecognizable to me or anything I stand for. And yet it happened, and I said it and I’m so sorry for any hurt caused. I was absolutely old enough to know better."

Emily Blunt se disculpó por insultar a una camarera en televisión hace más de una década. Esto, después de que las redes sociales revivieran un clip de la actriz en el que se burla del peso de la mujer.

Emily realizó un mea culpa en People Mag, en donde se refirió al clip de "Jonathan Ross Show" de 2012, en donde se la ve haciendo chistes con el anfitrión, en medio de la promoción de su película "Looper".

En un momento dado, Ross se ríe sobre los estadounidenses que son "enormes" en Chili's, citando el tamaño de las hamburguesas que les sirven a sus comensales. Emily se rió y contó una anécdota que ella misma vivió, diciendo que una camarera de Chili's que la estaba atendiendo durante el rodaje de "Looper" era, de hecho, enorme.

Emily recrea la conversación, haciendo hincapié en el acento sureño de la mujer y señalando que la señora la reconoció. La conversación fue más bien desenfadada, pero Twitter no lo toleró. Innumerables usuarios la acusaron de avergonzar a los gordos y, como de costumbre, exigieron responsabilidades.

Por supuesto, Emily cedió diciendo: "Solo tengo que abordar esto de frente, me quedé boquiabierta viendo este clip de hace 12 años. Estoy horrorizada de haber dicho algo tan insensible, hiriente y sin relación con la historia que estaba tratando de contar en el programa de entrevistas".

Y añade: "Siempre me he considerado alguien a quien no se le ocurriría molestar a nadie, lo que me llevó a decir algo así en ese momento es irreconocible para mí y lo que represento. Sin embargo, pasó, lo dije y siento mucho el daño causado. Era lo suficientemente grande para saberlo".

NLE Choppa's mom is worried sick for her son, saying she hasn't heard from him in hours ... and asking anyone who may have contact to get in touch with her ASAP.

Choppa's mom, Angela Potts, posted the concerning message Friday, writing, "Y’all help me pray over my child. He plans on moving back to Cottonwood where we worked hard to get out of just for a mixtape SMH! I ain’t talked to this boy in hours and he usually doesn’t do this. One thing I know about my son is that he doesn’t go ghost for any reason."

She continues with a message to her son, "Whatever your working on I pray GOD is guiding you. If y’all hear from him PLEASE CONTACT ME ASAP ! To the fans he wants to please thanks a lot."

What's unclear is whether or not NLE gave Angela -- who is also his manager -- a reason to believe he could be in trouble, or if he's just faced a lot of pressure in keeping up with his own career.

We should note ... a message on NLE's Instagram story (posted by management) also encouraged fans to reach out to Angela if they see the rapper.

Billie Eilish está mostrando la versión completa de su tatuaje en la espalda y los fans están bastante divididos en sus reacciones.

La cantante publicó una foto el miércoles. Aparece acostada sobre su estómago en lo que parece ser un estudio de tatuajes. Billie tiene su espalda desnuda expuesta, mostrando un diseño intrincado que atraviesa su columna vertebral y se ve recién hecho.

No está claro si se trata de una foto vieja. Hemos visto atisbos de este tatuaje antes, pero nunca completo. No sabemos si Billie está mostrando algún avance o simplemente es un recuerdo de la primera sesión.

En cualquier caso, el tatuaje luce un poco manchado e incompleto. Ha habido reacciones mixtas en línea, a algunos les gusta y a otros no son mucho.

Este es solo uno de varios tatuajes que tiene Billie. Tiene uno en el pecho que dice "Eilish", otro de un dragón en el muslo y otro que muestra las hadas en la mano.

Billie Eilish is showing off the full version of her massive back tattoo, a piece she's teased before ... and fans are pretty mixed on their thoughts.

The singer posted a pic Wednesday as part of a larger October photo dump -- and in it, she's laying on her stomach at what appears to be a tattoo shop. Billie's got her bare back exposed, showing some sort of intricate design that runs down her spine -- and it looks fresh.

Unclear if this is a shot that she's had in her camera roll for a while ... we've seen glimpses of this tat before, but have never seen the entire thing. This is either Billie showing that she's gotten more work on it recently, or just a flashback to when she first got it done.

In any case ... the tattoo here looks a little smeared and incomplete. There've been mixed reactions to the ink online -- some dig it, others aren't big fans.

FWIW, this is just one of a handful of tats she has ... Billie has one on her chest that reads "Eilish," another one of a dragon on her thigh and yet another showing fairies on her hand.

Black Lives Matter came under heavy fire after its Chicago chapter released an online image celebrating Hamas' slaughter of more than a thousand Israeli citizens, including babies.

In a message posted on X, formerly Twitter, BLM proudly wrote, "I stand with Palestine," underneath a picture of someone paragliding with a Palestinian flag sticking up from its inflatable wing. The image was accompanied by the caption, "That is all that is it!"

The despicable illustration is reminiscent of last Saturday's sneak attack by Hamas terrorists, some of whom paraglided into Israel in order to massacre 260 people at the Supernova Festival.

The terrorists then went house to house, fatally shooting men, women, children -- and even babies -- before mutilating their bodies.

Some of the babies were decapitated. Some of the women were raped before being murdered or held hostage. Entire families were slaughtered as the terrorists went door to door.

Hamas also fired rockets into Israel, blowing up buildings and killing everyone inside.

Many on social media blasted the Chicago activist group for its total lack of sensitivity. One person wrote, "Unapologetically standing with butcherers and rapists."

Another said, "This is so disgusting and disgraceful on so many levels."

A third fumed, "Pure. Absolute. Trash.....and whoever had a hand in it is trash as well."

And a fourth raged, "BLM Chicago, like many leftists, comes out in support of slaughtering innocent people they don’t like."

Black Lives Matter fue duramente criticado después de que su sección de Chicago publicara en Internet una imagen en la que celebra la matanza de más de mil ciudadanos israelíes por parte de Hamás, incluidos bebés.

En un mensaje publicado en X, antes Twitter, el grupo escribió con orgullo: "Estoy con Palestina", debajo de una imagen de alguien haciendo parapente con una bandera palestina en la parte superior. La imagen iba acompañada de la leyenda: "¡Eso es todo lo que es!".

La despreciable ilustración recuerda al ataque furtivo perpetrado el pasado sábado por terroristas de Hamás, algunos de los cuales se lanzaron en parapente sobre Israel para masacrar a 260 personas en el Festival Supernova.

A continuación, los terroristas fueron casa por casa, disparando mortalmente a hombres, mujeres, niños -e incluso bebés- antes de mutilar sus cuerpos.

Algunos de los bebés fueron decapitados. Algunas de las mujeres fueron violadas antes de ser asesinadas o retenidas como rehenes. Familias enteras fueron masacradas cuando los terroristas fueron puerta por puerta.

Hamás también disparó cohetes contra Israel, volando edificios y matando a todos los que estaban dentro.

Muchos en las redes sociales criticaron al grupo activista de Chicago por su falta de sensibilidad. Una persona escribió: "Apoyando sin disculpas a carniceros y violadores".

Otro dijo: "Esto es repugnante y vergonzoso en muchos niveles".

Un tercero dijo: "Pura y absoluta basura y para quienquiera que tenga algo que ver, basura también".

Y un cuarto despotricaba: "Black Lives Matter Chicago, como muchos izquierdistas, sale en apoyo de masacrar a gente inocente que no les gusta".

Woah Vicky has nothing but good things to say about Lil Tay's return to the spotlight after being gone for years ... and she's hoping a collab is in their future, just like old times.

Vicky tells TMZ ... she thinks Tay's looking great and is proud of the online sensation for hitting the internet after 5 long years of radio silence with a brand new song.

She's talking about Tay's new track, "Sucker 4 Green," and Vicky's digging the choreography and the beat that brought it all together. She also gives a shout-out to Tay's marketing team ... which has always included members of her fam.

Vicky even admits she thought Tay was just AI when she first saw the music vid ... but now that she's sure it's the real deal, she's hoping the 2 can collaborate on something to re-cement their relationship.

You'll recall, the girls were homies back in 2018 when Tay was blowing up online for her flexing -- something that perfectly aligned with Vicky's brand.

They hung out quite a bit and were even side-by-side when Vicky got into a brawl with fellow viral star Danielle Bregoli, aka Bhad Bhabie.

As we reported, Tay went live on IG Saturday, speaking out for the first time about her death hoax and calling out her dad for a slew of alleged wrongdoings.

Woah Vicky no tiene más que cosas buenas que decir sobre el regreso de Lil Tay al centro de atención después de haber estado fuera durante años y está esperando una colaboración como en los viejos tiempos.

Vicky le dice a TMZ que piensa Tay se ve muy bien y está orgullosa de la idea de volver a internet luego de 5 largos años de silencio con una nueva canción.

Está hablando de la nueva canción de Tay, "Sucker 4 Green". A Vicky le encanta la coreografía y el ritmo, también felicita al equipo de marketing de Tay, que siempre ha incluido a miembros de su familia.

Vicky incluso admite que pensó que Tay era solo AI cuando vio por primera vez el video músical, pero ahora que está segura de que es real, ella espera poder colaborar en algo para volver a cimentar su relación.

Recordarás que las chicas eran amigas en 2018 cuando Tay estaba explotando en línea por su flexión, algo que se alineaba perfectamente con la marca de Vicky.

Salieron bastante e incluso estuvieron codo con codo cuando Vicky se metió en una pelea con su compañera estrella viral Danielle Bregoli, alias Bhad Bhabie.

Como informamos, Tay hizo un live de Instagram el sábado hablando por primera vez sobre su engaño de muerte y llamando a su padre por una serie de presuntas malas acciones.

Kim Kardashian isn't about to let Kendall Jenner have all the fun in Gucci, posing in a bikini after KJ and Bad Bunny starred in the latest campaign for the fashion giant.

Kim posted a series of night-cam-esque photos Monday -- showing off a shiny Gucci bikini while lounging in bed.

KK's snaps come after Kendall and Bad Bunny's latest gig for the fashion line's latest campaign, Gucci Valigeria.

The couple rocked big smiles while showing off their Gucci luggage -- and the shoot marked the two going Instagram official ... an announcement that wasn't all that surprising.

The timing of Kim's post is interesting, and it's something folks have already been sounding off on in the comments of her post.

Don't forget, Kim got into it with her other sister, Kourtney, on "The Kardashians" ... about how Kim's collab with Dolce & Gabbana had similarities to Kourtney's wedding with Travis Barker.

That disagreement ended up with a serious fight over the phone at the start of the show's latest season, with Kourtney saying she hates Kim and thinks she's a "f***ing witch."
