He was the CEO of Dunder Mifflin ... he terrorized Andy Bernard ... but former "Office" star James Spader tells TMZ he just didn't care enough about the show to watch the series finale back in May.

A well-dressed Spader -- who played Robert California on the NBC sitcom -- was hanging out at Comic-Con yesterday when he asked if he enjoyed the way the show wrapped up after 9 seasons on the air.

"I didn't see it," Spader revealed ... which is kinda shocking considering he was a major character on the show for all of Season 8. He was essentially hired to replace Steve Carell.

So why didn't he watch the finale? Was it a diss? Was he just really busy? Or, like the rest of America, did he just get bored with the storyline?

The U.K. finale was better anyway.

The rumors are true ... Number 5 is still alive!!! A remake of the classic 80s robot film "Short Circuit" is actively in development -- so says the actor who played the brownfaced, ambiguously Indian character Ben Jabituya ... and he tells TMZ, he might be back for more.

It's pretty crazy considering the film has taken a lot of heat for Stevens' character, even though the guy had some classic lines ... so we gotta ask ...

Posing with porn star Andy San Dimas -- while wearing a UNICORN HEAD -- has a Pittsburgh cop in huge trouble, but San Dimas claims the whole booty-shaking mess is a giant misunderstanding.

This all went down last weekend during a Pirates game at PNC Park, where Andy says she was doing her best to get on the jumbotron ... by shaking her ass in cut-off shorts, while wearing a unicorn head mask!

Awesome, right? Wrong ... because Andy says when an usher asked her to sit down, she tried to rile up the crowd by shouting back, "Oh, I'm sorry I was trying to have a good time at the f**king Pirates game!"

Not smart ... Andy was hauled off to the Pittsburgh PD station at the ballpark.

Andy says the cops were very friendly, and told her they had to boot her from the park -- but not before one officer asked to try on the mask.

Not smart again. That "unicorn cop" is now reportedly under investigation. It's unclear if it's the unicorn mask, the porn star -- or both -- that got him in trouble.

Tyra Banks would flip if she saw this -- the shocking bruised mug shot of former "America's Next Top Model" star Renee Alway, following her insane arrest in Palm Springs last month.

As we reported, 27-year-old Alway -- who placed 3rd on cycle 8 of the show -- was arrested on June 28th following a six-hour standoff with police ... after she was allegedly spotted wandering around a vacant home while carrying a gun.

Among the charges ... Alway was booked on suspicion of burglary, fraud, possession of narcotics, forged bills, and committing a felony while on bail.

Alway had been out on bail following her prior arrest just weeks before ... when she was popped for drug paraphernalia, petty theft, and fraud.

Sad.

Travis Tritt is a one-man alligator wrecking crew -- 'cause the country music legend put down a 13-footer recently that would even make the "Swamp People" blush.

Tritt was hanging in NYC yesterday when we asked about his penchant for hunting -- and Travis explained that he'll basically go after anything: "Gators, elk, deer ... you name it."

We did some digging and found out ... he's not kidding. Just last year, Tritt went out with the Beach Boys Gator Hunt in Florida ... and got himself a monster.

Fun Fact -- Travis is a big political activist and happens to be pro-death penalty ... for humans.

Look out Manhattan ... THE FLYING SHARKS ARE COMING TO THE EAST COAST!!!!!

Syfy has officially greenlit a sequel to "Sharknado" -- the Ian Ziering/Tara Reid flick about sharks invading Los Angeles -- only this time, the great whites will touch down in New York City.

One of the honchos at Syfy released a deliciously cheesy statement saying, "Every once in a while, there is a perfect storm – on television. The fans are clamoring for a sequel. Or perhaps it will be a prequel."

"What we can guarantee is that Sharknado 2 will be lots of fun. We’ll be announcing more details very soon. But we didn’t want our fans to worry they wouldn’t get their fill of more shark fin, I mean, fun next year."

Hot chicks catch all the breaks in Hollywood ... just ask The Game, who appeared to give a full pardon to a woman who smashed into his BMW last night ... just because she was attractive.

Game was outside Tru nightclub with his posse ... when some lady in a Mercedes punched the gas pedal -- while her car was in reverse -- slamming her ride into Game's white Beemer while he was standing right in front of the car.

But Game didn't even get upset ... 'cause when the driver emerged from her car and walked over to the rapper to apologize, he instantly forgave her ... and it's obvious why.

"She cracked the whip! She cracked the Beemer ... but I'm such a G, that I ain't even trip!"

There's been ENOUGH testosterone in the White House -- it's time for a WOMAN to lead the country, this according to Mama June.

The "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" star was leaving an NYC Barnes & Noble (yes, they still have those) ... when June explained why the next Commander-In-Chief needs to have lady parts.

Fun Fact -- June and her family recently visited the White House in D.C. ... and Mama says one of her daughters was so impressed, she left a "sticky note" for President Obama.

NFL star Brandon Marshall is about to blow your mind -- 'cause it's not every day you meet a wine, yoga and Pilates lovin' football star!

We caught up with the Chicago Bears' wide receiver at the Playboy Mansion -- probably not the best time to remind him training camp starts in 9 days, but we did ... and his response was awesomely honest.

"It sucks. Right now ... you got stuff like Espys and Playboy parties. Now you gotta go to camp, you gotta go to a dormitory for a month?"

Brandon also revealed he and Jennifer Aniston have more in common than we would have ever thought -- you gotta see him light up talking about his love of Pilates, yoga ... and fine wine.

An Ohio man claims Justin Bieber confronted him inside a bar and SPIT IN HIS FACE this weekend ... all because JB thought he was secretly taking pics.

The man -- a DJ who performed at the Social Room on Park Street in Columbus, OH earlier that evening -- called in to the Dave and Jimmy show on WNCI and explained the saga ... saying it all started in the VIP room.

"Two of Bieber's bouncers approached me and said I was trying to take pictures of Bieber."

The man thinks JB was concerned because it was a 21+ night in the club ... and Justin's only 19.

The DJ says Bieber's people grabbed his phone and started going through it looking for pics -- but didn't find any. Still, the man claims, the bouncers told JB the DJ was trying to take pics.

According to the DJ, Justin approached him moments later ... and spouted off a couple of "choice words."

"He called my mom something, called my dad something, called me something ... and spit in my face."

TMZ spoke to the DJ ... who tells us he plans on filing charges. He's also been tested for hepatitis ... but says the tests came back negative.

The DJ's story is interesting because it's not the first time Bieber has been accused of spitting in someone's face. The singer's neighbor in Calabasas made the same allegation when he confronted Justin about speeding in their gated community.

Bieber's official rep refused to comment -- but a source in JB's camp tells TMZ, "Everything's been going really well on the tour and it's just really sad that someone would copycat others' baseless claims just to try and get attention for themselves."

Amanda Bynes secretly wants to be just like Miley Cyrus ... at least in the grill department ... so says the man hired to construct her gangster bling, Ben Baller.

Ben is the artist making Amanda's mouth piece -- which he says cost her $10,000 -- and recently Instagrammed a mold of the actress' chompers. So when our pap saw him out in NYC ... he HAD to ask ... what was it like working with crazy the future rapper?

Ben says it was a trip -- watch the video -- he goes into detail about her nutty behavior.

But more shocking ... Ben also revealed Amanda's number one request for her grill, explaining how she wanted it to be just like Miley Cyrus'. Interesting considering Amanda previously blasted Cyrus on Twitter as "Ugly."

Talk about a 180.

LeBron James has sent out his wedding invites -- problem is the nuptials are SO top secret they don't list a time or location ... but instead send invited guests on a clandestine retrieval mission.

According to the invites -- obtained by TMZ -- LeBron and Savannah Brinson are still tying the knot on the weekend of Sept.13th to 15th, somewhere in San Diego (which we knew from the Save the Date).

But the invites are super vague ... only listing a "Welcome Barbeque" at 7pm on Friday, Sept 13th (which is the beginning of Yom Kippur. Sorry Jews). Then listing a "Farewell Brunch" at 10:30 am Sunday.

THERE IS NO MENTION OF AN ADDRESS OR SATURDAY'S CEREMONY!!!!!

Instead, guests are instructed to call a top secret phone number by August 1st. After guests call the number, someone will get back to them with actual details.

Korn has been hard at work the past few months using their indoor hydroponics setup to grow a few pounds ... of CORN!!!

Turns out the guys got real health conscious while recording their new album "The Paradigm Shift" -- and bought a micro-indoor farm to grow corn and other vegetables inside of the studio so they wouldn't have to buy from a store (photo below).

"TPS" will be a historic album when it's released in October since it marks the return of co-founding guitar player Brian "Head" Welch ... who left the band in 2005 for religious reasons.

Fergie Ferg from the Black Eyed Peas is in the middle of a serious identity crisis -- 'cause she's petitioning the court to legally change her FIRST and LAST name ... TMZ has learned.

Ferg -- born Stacy Ann Ferguson -- has filed legal papers requesting to officially change her name to Fergie Duhamel ... roughly 4-and-a-half years after marrying Josh Duhamel.

The reason for wanting to change her last name is obvious ... but in the docs, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Ferg's lawyer says she wants to swap Stacy for Fergie in order to "conform to the first name which she is commonly and professionally known as, and has been for many years."

In other words ... no one's called her "Stacy" in YEARS.

In order for the court to grant her request, Ferg ... or Stacy (for now) ... must publish a notice in a local newspaper for four consecutive weeks (just like Ron Artest was required to do in order to become Metta World Peace).

She'll most likely get her wish if she completes her task by August 16 -- when a hearing is scheduled for the matter.

Justin Bieber's got less respect for the little people than Godzilla ... so says a rep for the biggest janitor union in the country, after TMZ posted video of the singer taking a leak in a restaurant mop bucket.

A rep for 32BJ SEIU -- aka the largest property services workers union in the US -- tells TMZ, “Unfortunately, people are often oblivious to the fact that workers like our members are faced daily with the consequences of such thoughtless acts."

The rep adds, "[Bieber's behavior] serves as a stark reminder of the essential jobs that building workers perform and the very difficult conditions under which they perform them. We welcome a heightened awareness of workers’ dignity among young people, and hope many will be moved to work for economic justice.”

Maybe Bieber should suit up for a day or two and see what it's really like to clean up after spoiled little twerps.

Here's the pee bucket video again for good measure.

Kanye West obviously needs a brand new music video after his other one fizzled online this week -- so we decided to do the man a solid and make him a new one ... BY REMIXING THIS WEEK'S PAPARAZZI TANTRUM!!!

You can read the story behind the video here, but that's not really today's lesson.

Today's lesson is obvious ... D-D-D-DON'T TALK TO KANYE!!! AT ALL!!!

Subscribe to our YouTube channel here. Just be quiet about it, so Kanye doesn't hear you.
