Madonna Tongues Out with Miley What, Me Old???
Refusing to age with even a hint of grace, 55-year-old Madonna clung desperately to her youth on stage last night with Miley Cyrus ... like a narcissistic mother trying to be hotter than her daughter.
It's just ... painful.
Madonna and Miley (who's 21 by the way) hit the stage together last night in cowboy get-ups for Miley's "MTV Unplugged" show in Hollywood ... but it felt more like a TLC special.
It's just the latest in Madonna's "I'm still hip" campaign -- in 2012, she named her tour "MDNA" an obvious play on MDMA ... and even once asked a crowd if they'd "seen Molly" ... a sad out-of-the-loop reference to the same drug.
Oh yeah, and a couple weeks ago she referred to her white son as "dis n**ga." Good lord.

Dodgers Star Brian Wilson I Got a Brand New Hand Gun ... Tattoo!
Dodgers superstar pitcher Brian Wilson's 100+ MPH right arm ain't the only gun in his arsenal anymore ... 'cause the guy just got a sweet revolver permanently inked on his non-pitching hand.
The '10 World Series champ was walking his beard out of a tattoo parlor in L.A. yesterday ... when he unholstered the freshly-inked pistol on the back of his left hand.
Wilson's already one of the most tatted up players in MLB ... but unfortunately, this one's going to get covered up by his glove while he's on the mound.
Either way, it's pretty awesome.

Jack Nicholson Do I Look Like I'm Joking ... In This Courtside Selfie
Jack Nicholson upped the ante on duck-lip selfies by shooting his own ... of course he did it from $2500 COURTSIDE Lakers seats! Take that 25-year-old chicks.
76-year-old Jack struck the tired-ass pose with a cute blonde fan last night at Staples Center.
This was probably the closest he came to smiling last night since the Kobe Bryant-less Lakers got crushed by the Indiana Pacers 104-92.
Our best guess on Jack's thoughts during the game ... "This town team needs an enema!"

TMZ broke the story ... Goldberg's ex Sonja Dimitrievska filed the request for the restraining order in November, claiming Goldberg -- actual name Shaun Weiss -- had been physically abusing her for two years.
She claims the final straw was a fight in April ... when a drunk Goldberg punched her, threatened to kill her, then tried to pee on her ... saying, "This is all you're worth."
Sonja finally obtained the restraining order on Tuesday, barring Goldberg from coming within 100 yards of her for the next 5 years.

Fun Fact: The U.S. Fire Service and The Ad Council created Smokey in 1944.

Harry Styles Hungry?? Eat My Meat
Harry Styles would make a good Jewish mother ... because the "One Direction" singer thinks everyone should be well fed -- even us.
Harry -- sans Kendall Jenner -- was carrying a doggie bag as he left Swingers in L.A. after a late-night dinner ... when our photog spotted him.
Harry didn't talk, but he seemed concerned our guy Kris was undernourished ... so he offered Kris his greasy leftovers.
Fun Fact: This is the same photog who once rooted around for Johnny Depp's used cigarette butt.
We're sending Kris to a bar ... he'll find something to wash down the half-eaten patty melt.
Jacoby Jones Sued You Ruined Our Super Bowl Party Who Cares If You Were Playing In It!?
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Jacoby Jones is being sued for allegedly SABATOGING a Super Bowl afterparty in New Orleans last year by running late ... problem is, he was all tied up because he was PLAYING IN THE SUPER BOWL!!!
Jones is being sued by After Party Entertainment, which claims JJ agreed to attend a party at the House of Blues in New Orleans on the night of the SB from 11pm to 1am.
In the suit, APE says it paid Jones handsomely -- PLUS sprung for flights, hotel rooms and gifts for Jones and 20 of his closest friends.
But APE says Jones had the nerve to arrive to the party an hour and 15 minutes LATE that night ... and arrived with 40 people in tow, instead of 20. He also demanded that his entire party get in for free.
Plus, APE also says Jones only hung out with his friends that night instead of mingling ... and never promoted the party on Instagram or Twitter, as he promised.
Here's the problem ... Jones was playing in the frickin' Super Bowl earlier that evening -- a Super Bowl that was DELAYED 34 minutes because of a freak power outage. The game didn't end 'til 10:45 pm.
Plus, Jones was also probably tied up by the media ... who were hammering the guy about his record-setting 108-yard touchdown run which played a crucial role in the Ravens victory.
Still, APE is demanding $192k in damages -- plus attorney's fees.
Jacoby's rep tells TMZ Sports, "We strongly believe this will be resolved to the benefit of Jacoby. We are very VERY confident in our position."
CRAZY Grammy Party Cops Shut Down Meek Mill, Diddy ... Plus a Camel and a Lion
Cops swarmed the Grammy afterparty thrown by Meek Mill in the Hollywood Hills -- a party so wild it had more than a thousand celebs and actual WILD ANIMALS!!
Meek rented out a mansion on Mulholland Drive and hosted Diddy, Lil Wayne, Drake, Nicki Minaj, Birdman, Nelly, Jermaine Dupri, Bow Wow and many more -- but the bash was still going at 5 AM ... and that's when the California Highway Patrol stepped in to shut it down.
TMZ sources inside the party tell us most of the guests were shuttled up to the mansion -- but others parked illegally along Mulholland -- and cops were towing cars as the sun came up.
Hundreds of guests were stranded, wandering the street trying to get home.
Still ... it was totally worth the hassle because we're told bottles of Ace of Spades were flowing by the thousands -- and he had a camel and a LION posing for pics with guests!
Ain't no party like a Meek Mill party ...
