You Might Want to Rethink

In case of an emergency, the 23-year-old may be used as a flotation device.

The hills are alive!

John Mayer is apologizing for using the N-Word in that explosively controversial Playboy interview in which he compared his penis to a white supremacist.

During the interview, Mayer stated that "black people" love him -- and then he brought up the topic of a "hood pass."

While explaining the meaning of a hood pass, Mayer said, "It's sort of a contradiction in terms, because if you really had a hood pass, you could call it a n*gger pass."

But moments ago, Mayer issued an apology, via Twitter, saying "I am sorry that I used the word. And it's such a shame that I did because the point I was trying to make was in the exact opposite spirit of the word itself."

John Mayer is at the center of a racial controversy -- and it's all because he compared his penis to a white supremacist.

It's all over an interview Mayer just gave to Playboy Magazine -- in which he was asked, "Do black women throw themselves at you?"

Mayer's response: "I don't think I open myself to it. My d*ck is sort of like a white supremacist. I've got a Benetton heart and a f*ckin' David Duke c*ck. I'm going to start dating separately from my d*ck."

Mayer goes on to name some African-American women he's attracted to, but we gotta ask ...

Snooki apparently regrets flipping the bird at the city of Philadelphia this morning -- and is now apologizing for her fowl finger.

The "Jersey Shore" star just apologized on her Twitter, posting "Sorry philly for the reaction this morning I got caught up in the moment and wing bowl is nuts!"

This is the second time the delusional 23-year-old has gone under the knife, having already had a nose job and a breast augmentation in 2007.

Unreal.

The ad shows a very distressed white guy, surrounded by a crowd of black people at a cricket match, who wonders, "Need a tip when you're stuck in an awkward situation?" He gets out of the "awkward situation" by handing them a bucket of chicken.

A rep for KFC Australia told a local paper, "It is a light-hearted reference to the West Indian cricket team ... The ad was reproduced online in the US without KFC's permission, where we are told a culturally-based stereotype exists, leading to the incorrect assertion of racism."

TMZ has obtained photographs of Katt in Hollywood early yesterday morning -- which show the comedian with what looks like a handgun holstered in the back of his pants.

Sources at the scene say Katt was involved in a verbal altercation with a group of people outside of Bar Lux Club at around 1:15 AM. We're told during the spat ... Katt went to his car and retrieved the alleged weapon, stuffing it in his jeans.

After a lot of yelling, everyone parted ways.

Katt's lawyer could not be reached for comment.

The 42-year-old has taken powdering her nose to the extreme.

The insensitive gesture occurred during Will Smith's rendition of "Rapper's Delight," when Toby slanted his eyes as Will rapped the word "yellow" -- but according to Toby's rep, "No one at the concert thought Toby was out of line."

Toby's rep also said, "Everyone was impressed with his rapping skills and that's it ... all of the artists liked each other, hung out, and it was a very friendly, genuine, and supportive atmosphere."

We're guessing the woman who sued Miley Cyrus for $4 billion over the same gesture would disagree.

According to documents obtained by TMZ, the day the music died was November 18, 2009 ... when Pratt was declared the humble owner of "King Spencer Music."

Pratt was granted the name for a filing fee of $23 -- which is ironically the same price as a pair of Aearo Peltor Low Profile Folding Ear Muffs.

We smell a stocking stuffer!!

Spirit Airlines -- a discount carrier based out of Florida -- is running an ad on their website featuring an animated tiger (the animal) crashing an SUV into a fire hydrant -- sound familiar?

After the animation, a graphic pops up promoting their "Eye of the Tiger Sale" -- with fares starting at $9.

Sure, sounds like a good deal -- if you like your airline using a CRASH to promote itself!

Didn't take Sherlock Holmes to notice -- investigators immediately confiscated the necklace from Courtney Ames' neck because it looked just like the one stolen from Lindsay Lohan's home ... in fact, we already did a story about Courtney wearing the same exact necklace last week.

For the record -- Whoopi "rape rape" Goldberg was the only one who looked disturbed by the joke. You can hear someone on the set say, "Whoaaa!" -- but it's unclear whose mouth it came from.

Thanks to Jezebel for pointing it out.

Jen should have heeded the warning and not drank the water.
