We want you to be a part of TMZ, so every weekday, between 10:30 AM and 12:00 PM PT, we take you inside our newsroom via live stream.

You never know what you're gonna get ... a big story that breaks, an argument erupts in the room, or someone's just joking around.

Your comments are a big part of the stream, and the staff spends a lot of time speaking directly to you. Every day is different!

Katy Perry and Chief Keef just pulled off one of the most unexpected celebrity linkups ever ... because after years of bad blood, the two were all smiles while hanging out together!

Videos of the pair kicking back together are making the rounds online ... and there wasn’t even a hint of awkwardness in sight. Katy and Keef looked totally relaxed, laughing it up and seemingly having the time of their lives.

Pretty wild considering these two were going at each other back in 2013. The feud kicked off after Katy criticized Keef’s song "Hate Bein' Sober," tweeting that it gave her "serious doubt for the world."

Things got a little out of hand during a Florida traffic stop earlier this year ... when a cop pulled a woman over for holding a phone in her right hand.

Here's the thing ... she doesn't actually have one.

ICYMI, Katie -- an adaptive athlete with a limb difference -- got a copy of the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office deputy's bodycam footage, and you've gotta hand it to her ... she has a pretty perfect response.

Ray J is punching back at claims that he threw his celebrity MMA fight against Supa Hot Fire, calling the allegation pure BS.

The R&B singer tells TMZ ... "There's no way this fight was rigged" because Ray says he would not have allowed himself to get hit that hard by Supa. 

As everyone knows, Ray got knocked out in the second round after the famous YouTuber punched Ray in the head with such force that Ray collapsed into the ropes before falling limp to the canvas during Saturday's co-main event in Las Vegas.

Talk about a broadcast going from sweet to stale real quick -- a Texas news anchor is getting absolutely dragged online after making a bizarre comment about BTS-themed Oreos.

Check out this wild FOX 34 segment featuring anchor James Eppler, where the crew was casually discussing BTS' new limited-edition hotteok-flavored Oreo collab ... before Eppler suddenly claimed the cookie designs somehow spelled out "death to America."

Yeah ... nobody knew where the hell that came from. The comment was completely false, deeply weird, and wildly out of place -- especially since the segment itself was super lighthearted and centered around cookies and K-pop.

The woman from the viral BBQ leftovers clip is making sure the young boy leaves full next time around ... 'cause she's throwing him a pizza party after the video sparked a huge online debate.

Ariel Smith tells TMZ she and her boyfriend were caught totally off guard when a boy named Jacquez knocked on their door asking if they had any BBQ leftovers ... especially because, as she puts it, he "knocked like a grown man."

Watch it all play out as Ariel says they'd just finished bringing food in from the grill when the boy showed up ... and since they'd only made enough for themselves, there wasn’t much left to offer other than some Cheetos.

Palm Beach Pete -- the guy who went viral for looking eerily like Jeffrey Epstein -- is now taking his notoriety to the ballot box ... announcing a run for mayor.

The viral sensation dropped the news on X with a full-on campaign-style selfie Wednesday, revealing he's officially entering the race to become Mayor of Palm Beach in the 2028 election.

This wasn't some random spur-of-the-moment post either. Pete was already decked out in a "Palm Beach Pete for Mayor '28" baseball cap -- because nothing screams political ambition quite like campaign merch.

A Nebraska pup apparently took "shotgun rider" way too literally ... because cops say the dog accidentally fired a real shotgun from inside a parked truck.

The bizarre incident went down Saturday in Scottsbluff ... where police responded to reports of a shooting near a convenience store and discovered a truck with damage from a shotgun blast ripped through the passenger-side door.

Law enforcement officials tell TMZ the alleged canine culprit -- who is reportedly a black lab -- was left inside the parked truck while the owner stepped away.

RFK Jr. was having a Steve Irwin moment when he grabbed 2 black snakes, bare-handed ... just as they were apparently in the process of getting it on!

You see in the video he posted on Tuesday, from Dr. Oz's house ... the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services walked over to the snakes and snatched them up.

The snakes were separated when he went to grab them -- double-fisting one in each hand ... but as he manhandled the reptiles, someone off-camera said ... "They're having sex." RFK Jr. laughed as he gripped their tails.

5/26 -- 11:50 AM PT -- Zayn responded to the video on IG, making it clear his fans are "always respectful and amazing" -- and said, "the issue was the multiple fully grown men that were blocking the doors of the hotel and the car for 10 minutes not letting us or security out."

Zayn Malik only had one direction on his mind -- straight into his waiting car ... but unfortunately for him, fans had other plans!

Check out this clip of Zayn leaving his hotel in Manchester, UK -- where a swarm of fans got way too close and blocked him from even opening the car door ... leading to the very frustrated singer yelling, "Get the f*** out of the way!"

Zayn eventually forced the door open and jumped inside -- while a female member of his entourage can also be heard trying to figure out how she was supposed to squeeze into the car chaos too.

Arthur Gea had more than his opponent to worry about at the French Open over the weekend ... because the dude suffered a full-blown bathroom emergency in the middle of his match and had to sprint off the court ASAP.

The French tennis star was making his French Open debut against Karen Khachanov Sunday when he suddenly stopped playing and pleaded with the chair umpire for an emergency bathroom break.

"I need to go to the bathroom. I can't move anymore," Gea said before rushing off court. At one point, he even warned ... "I'm going to (go) on the court."

Ray J went down in flames during his celebrity MMA match Saturday night, getting his ass whooped by Supa Hot Fire.

The artist went toe-to-toe with the popular YouTuber for just two rounds during their co-main MMA fight at Adin Ross' UFC Apex event in Las Vegas. 

In the second round, Ray had Supa against the ropes, throwing a few body punches ... which was directly followed by Supa hitting Ray with a hard right hook square in the face, and Ray fell into the ropes before hitting the canvas.

Brandi Glanville didn't get any sexual healing from her last dude ... more like a sexual itching -- because she thinks he gave her ringworm with his you-know-what.

The reality star spoke with prolific former pornstar Lisa Ann on the most recent episode of her podcast "Brandi Glanville Unfiltered with James Maas" ... and she asked Lisa if she knew anything about "sexually transmitted ringworm."

Lisa says it's a huge problem in the industry because it's so contagious ... and asks how Brandi thinks she got it.

The gunman who allegedly fired shots outside the White House on Saturday has died ... according to a statement from the United States Secret Service.

The Chief of Communications for the United States Secret Service, Anthony Guglielmi, tells TMZ ... shortly after 6 PM ET an individual on 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue -- very close to the White House -- "pulled a weapon from his bag and began firing."

Secret Service returned fire, Guglielmi says ... striking the suspect who was taken to a hospital where the suspect died. A bystander was also struck during the shooting. Officers did not sustain injuries during the shooting.

Ray J and Supa Hot Fire are already going at it ahead of their big MMA bout, s***-talking each other during a presser in which Ray shouted "Free Diddy"!

Ray was sitting on stage near Supa during Friday's pre-fight press conference -- and things quickly turned ugly between the two men.

Supa Hot kicked things off by bringing up that Ray's estranged wife, Princess Love, once had a fling with boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr. Ray jumped up and tried to confront him face-to-face, but was stopped by his handlers, and he went back to his chair.

A Vice Admiral's recent interview on Fox News has caused the internet to go into a full-blown meltdown ... with many insisting he wore a mask on TV for some reason -- and now the network's weighing in.

Here's the deal ... Vice Admiral Robert Harward -- a retired Navy SEAL and the former Deputy Commander of the United States Central Command -- appeared on the network earlier this week to discuss the ongoing war in Iran.

While he spoke, a dark shadow near the base of his throat drew audience members' eyes ... and people took to social media to question whether Harward wore a mask for the TV spot.
