Sen. Chuck Schumer was airing his grievances over President Trump's Iran war when the Democrat appeared to air something else on the Senate floor ... a loud fart!!!

Check out the clip ... Schumer is discussing Iran and the National Defense Authorization Act when a long, unmistakably flatulent noise cuts through the chamber. The 75-year-old seems to briefly fight back a grin.

Schumer quickly regains his composure and goes back to ripping on Trump.

Listen closely ... the first part of our video has the live sound, but we boosted the audio later in the video.

Usher's serving up some hot cakes during his tour with fellow R&B star Chris Brown ... exposing his bare butt to fans during a sensual number ... and it's on video.

The pop star is currently touring the country with Breezy ... and during a recent performance in Maryland, he stood up from a bed on stage and exposed his buck naked bottom.

Usher flashed some serious booty while performing "Seduction" ... he was simulating sex with a woman and he got out of bed while buttoning his pants.

The sculptor behind the viral Charlie Kirk statue says he's being harassed online ... receiving messages from haters who he fears may confront him in the streets.

Sergio Furnari shared some alleged messages from these online trolls with TMZ ... one of which reads, "I really want to come to NYC just to burn and piss on that s*** Charlie Kirk statue."

Another message insists no one would care if Sergio suddenly died ... not quite a death threat -- but certainly a horrible thing to send someone.

A KTLA reporter giving updates on the Los Angeles heat wave proved she is not easily bugged ... powering through when a pretty big cockroach tried to bug bomb her live shot.

L.A. field reporter Rachel Menitoff was reporting live from a sidewalk in Sherman Oaks -- a neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley -- when a massive bug that looks like a cockroach started crawling up her neck.

The huge insect flitted around in her hair before moving down her chest and into her shirt. YIKES!!!

Patti LaBelle had the honor of singing the national anthem in her hometown before the MLB All-Star Game ... but by the time she hit the final note, social media was already debating her performance.

The 82-year-old "Godmother of Soul" belted out "The Star-Spangled Banner" Tuesday night at Philadelphia's Citizens Bank Park before the Midsummer Classic. Patti put her own spin on the anthem ... stretching out a few notes and appearing to stumble over a couple of lyrics before powering through to a standing ovation inside the ballpark.

The internet, however, was a whole different crowd. Take a listen ... then you be the judge.

Well, this is one way to make it rain ... a Texas woman accidentally flooded her living room while practicing her pole dancing.

Asha Gilbert was working the pole in her Houston apartment, following along to a video tutorial on her TV, when the pole suddenly dislodged from the ceiling and hit a ceiling sprinkler.

Water started spraying all over the place ... flooding her living room.

The bison that tossed a Yellowstone tourist in the air in an insane viral video will NOT be put down ... TMZ has learned.

Yellowstone Park officials tell us ... no "management action" will be taken against the wild animal ... meaning it won't be euthanized -- and that's that.

This update comes after Carl Isom-McDaniel was hurled in the air on Friday at the Bridge Bay Campground near Yellowstone Lake. The 65-year-old suffered a few broken bones from the scary encounter ... but is on the mend.

Bet you never thought an epic soundtrack for a fight would be an Ariana Grande song ... but here we are ... her fans are on video fighting at one of her concerts.

Ya gotta see the footage ... Arianators looked more like Terminators during Ariana's "Eternal Sunshine Tour" stop Thursday at State Farm Arena in Atlanta ... pulling each other's hair and swinging their fists while Ariana performed "Into You."

While a couple folks try to break the cat fight up ... the other concertgoers sort of just hang back awkwardly ... guess they realized Ariana shows aren't the best place for wicked fights.

Waffle House better give Rockstar Riley a raise and a lifetime supply of waffles ... because the guy going viral for rapping his Waffle House-themed song says a seven-figure recording contract isn't enough to make him quit his day job.

The viral rapper tells TMZ ... he would still work at Waffle House if a record label came to him with a $1 million deal.

While it may sound crazy, Rockstar Riley says he loves his Waffle House so much, he wouldn't walk away ... telling us the work environment feels like a community.

The dude says he's seen servers and cooks put their families through college and pay off medical expenses, all while working at the famous chain restaurant.

There was a lot more "get on the ground" than "fore" being yelled at the Ohio golf course where Julius Edwards -- a suspect in an attempted murder case -- tried to escape cops ... and the wild car chase is all on police video.

Check out the body cam footage ... cops pursue Edwards in a high-speed chase past tons of shocked golfers ... and it ends with a horrible collision. The attempted murder suspect then flees on foot ... with the cops hot on his tail.

As officers chase him down, one cop is head yelling, "He's a got a gun ... somebody go lethal!!!"

The viral Yellowstone National Park tourist who was tossed into the air by a massive bison has been identified ... and despite his injuries, he seems to be taking the wild encounter in stride.

Carl Isom-McDaniel was cracking jokes as he lay in severe pain after suffering multiple broken bones in Friday's harrowing encounter with the massive beast at the Bridge Bay Campground near Yellowstone Lake.

A witness told The New York Times ... the 65-year-old was traveling with his grandson when the bison became enraged and went after Carl. Viral video shows Carl running around trees trying to get away ... before the bison catches up to him and tosses him into the air like a rag doll.

The West Coast may just be the best coast ... because E-40 didn't have his audience waiting for hours to see him perform at SeaWorld ... unlike the Jay-Z concert at Yankee Stadium.

SeaWorld got lit Saturday when the Bay Area rapper made a huge splash at the Bayside Amphitheater in San Diego ... and the crowd was dancing, going dumb and getting hyphy.

E-40 had a sea of people turning up ... and they weren't just in the stands. People swarmed around the banks to dance to his hits ... and tons of ladies -- and even an old head -- were twerking!

A deadly fire engulfed a bar in Bangkok ... killing at least 28 people and injuring dozens more ... and the massive blaze is on video.

Horrifying footage shows giant flames shooting out of the beer hall like a giant blowtorch ... as people scream and escape onto the street.

A thick pillar of black smoke billowed out of the doors and windows, creating a haze around the establishment as people continued to flee the scene.

Jeezy was supposed to perform in Las Vegas on Sunday night, and when he finally took the stage, he was across the country at Yankee Stadium ... and it's all because of Jay-Z.

The rapper pulled the plug on his scheduled residency performance at PH Live inside Planet Hollywood ... opting instead for a surprise cross-country trip to New York City, where he reunited with Jay during the legend's star-studded "Extra Innings" concert.

Folks back in Vegas were wondering why Jeezy's show was abruptly canceled ... and they got their answer late Sunday when the Snowman emerged onstage alongside Hov to perform their longtime collaborations "Seen It All" and "Go Crazy" ... sending the Bronx crowd into a frenzy.

A grandfather got an up-close look at nature he never wanted ... because a behemoth bison sent him flying in a wild new video.

The incident went down Friday night at Yellowstone National Park where Mike MacLeod -- a professional photographer -- was filming the erratic behavior of a bison rolling around in the dirt when a couple of people, an older man with a white beard and a younger guy, walked by and took a couple pictures.

The National Park Service recommends being at least 75 feet away from bison and elk -- which it appears these two were. Plus, Mike says they weren't being disrespectful ... they were just snapping a quick pic or video like him.
