UCLA's Josh Rosen Hot Tub Removed Soak In the Disappointment
The hot tub fun is over for UCLA quarterback Josh Rosen ... school officials tell TMZ Sports it's been REMOVED from his dorm room after photos of the party pool went viral.
We spoke with UCLA Associate Media Director, Ricardo Vazquez, who tells us, "We have been told that the hot tub has been removed from his room. It’s gone."
Vazquez says the tub violated the UCLA residential housing policy which states, "Furnishings which are not officially designated as part of a residential room’s accessories may not be moved into any resident’s room at any time."
Sucks for Rosen ... dude seemed to be putting the tub to good use.
The good news ... Rosen's still a freshmen -- so, he can bring back the tub whenever he decides to move off campus.

Rapper T-Wayne 22-Year-Old Woman Claims Rape
8:30 P.M. PST -- A rep for T-Wayne tells TMZ, "We deny the allegation. It is unfounded, untrue and without merit!"
Rapper T-Wayne is under investigation for allegedly raping a woman in a hotel room.
A 22-year-old female from Dallas claims she and the rapper met on Instagram in June and he flew her to Houston in late July for a visit.
The woman tells TMZ she and T went to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory and when they returned to her hotel room she says he got aggressive, trying to guilt her into having sex. When she refused, she says he pinned her down and had sex with her.
The woman filed a police report and cops opened a rape investigation.
She waited 5 weeks to file the report ... she says because she was in shock and it was hard to process.
We've reached out to T-Wayne for comment ... so far, no word back.

During the break you can hear Hillary ask a guy named Dave if he'll be coming to the Katy Perry concert this weekend. It's unclear if she knew her voice would be picked up on an ABC News microphone.
Hillary's throwing a campaign event in Iowa Saturday where Katy will perform.
Dave hopes to go.

German Soccer Star Fuhrious at Toy Company ... You Made Me a Nazi!!!
A German soccer superstar is declaring war on a Chinese toy company -- claiming they ripped off his name and image to make a Nazi action figure ... but wait'll you hear the company's defense.
The man at the center of the controversy is Manchester United player Bastian Schweinsteiger -- who played on Team Germany's World Cup team last year ... he's a big deal.
He also looks A LOT like the WWII German Army Supply Duty toy named "Bastian" that's being hawked by Chinese toy company DiD.
Well, Bastian doesn't feel like imitation is the sincerest form of flattery ... when Hitler's involved ... so he's preparing to sue the company.
But a rep for DiD says it's all one big misunderstanding -- "We think that all Germans look like that. Bastian is also a very common name in Germany.”
Wow.
The DiD rep added, "It is a complete coincidence that the figure ‘Bastian’ looks like Schweinsteiger."
Vell, vee guess Bastian vill see you ass in court.

Ben Carson Chuckles Again After Repeating What He Would Have Done to Oregon Shooter
Dr. Ben Carson isn't wavering a bit -- he would have done things differently if he were a potential victim of the Oregon shooter ... but just like the first time, he followed his comment with a chuckle.
Carson was in NYC Tuesday, when he was asked if he stands by his comment that he would have quickly organized a mob to subdue the Oregon gunman, because the guy could only shoot one person at a time.
Carson, who initially made his point on "Fox & Friends," has been skewered by some who feel he was calling the victims cowards. A lot of people were upset he chuckled after making his comment.
Chuckle he did again.

Ben Carson I Used to Outrun Cops Before They Shot You ... JK!!
Ben Carson flashed some energy and personality on the campaign trail Wednesday ... by cracking a joke about cops shooting black kids.
The good doctor was stumping in New Hampshire, and reliving his childhood -- telling a story about how he and pals used to throw rocks at cars and run from the police.
Innocent enough tale about his wayward youth, and then he said ... "That was back in the day before they would shoot you."
Hard to tell if the GOP presidential candidate's comment was truly off-the-cuff or planned, but considering the current climate ... it seems like a risky door to open.
Especially for a guy who's moving up in the polls.

Bill Cosby Another Honor Yanked Brown Univ. Rescinds Degree
Bill Cosby's mantel is almost bare, because another university has stripped him of an honorary degree.
Brown University revoked Cosby's doctorate of humane letters it bestowed on the comedian in 1985. The University Prez says Cosby's admission he drugged women is "contrary to the values of Brown."
This is the third college to yank degrees from Cosby in less than a week. Fordham and Marquette also rescinded their honorary degrees.

August Alsina I Feel for You ... Gropes Fan Onstage
August Alsina gave a female fan a VERY touching performance -- so touching, it might be criminal.
The R&B singer did a show in Baton Rouge this weekend and invited a woman up onstage. While he crooned, he stood behind her and started massaging her shoulders ... and quickly headed south.
Watch the video ... Alsina full on groped her breasts, and she definitely seems uncomfortable with the situation. It's unclear if the woman was randomly selected from the crowd, or if she's a plant -- a paid performer in the act.
Either way ... audience members were shocked, and fans have been ripping Alsina on social media.

Rich Homie Quan Smoking Video Triggers Child Services Investigation
Rich Homie Quan learned not to wave a red flag in front of a bull, because he just got gored ... Child Protective Services is now on his case for smoking what looks like a blunt in front of his kid.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Georgia authorities saw the video of RHQ's 1-year-old on his lap as he puffed away, and they were alarmed. Child Protective Services and the Fulton County Police Department have now teamed up to investigate.
Our sources say CPS wants to sit down with Quan and ask a slew of questions ... notably, what was he smoking? They also want to know if this was a one-off or his standard operating procedure.
Law enforcement tells us the probe goes beyond RHQ's fitness as a parent ... he could face possible criminal charges, including endangering a child and reckless behavior.
Washington Redskins Fan Goes Full Red-Skinned
If you name your pro football team the Washington Redskins, you're just inviting this kind of BS -- a fan decorating himself like he's a "Blazing Saddles" extra ... except there's nothing funny about it.
Some guy painted his face red and donned a black wig with long side braid ... then plopped himself down at MetLife Stadium to watch his team perform pitifully, and lose to the New York Giants.
See, the play on the field was NOT the most offensive part of that game.

Channel 4's Matt Frei used the unfortunate turn of phrase on-air during a taped report on Wednesday about the Pope coming to America.
Frei pleaded ignorance when the inevitable social media backlash began, claiming ... "It was intended as an entirely innocent phrase that apparently has a history I simply wasn’t aware of."
Dear Matt,
To be safe, please also refrain from quips about poultry ... when talking about our President.
Sincerely,

Little Caesars Singles Out White Women
Little Caesars caters to white women ... the problem is, they referred to one of them as "white woman."
We've learned a Caucasian woman went to a Little Caesars last Friday in Fallbrook, CA ... near San Diego. She ordered 2 large pizzas -- a Hawaiian and a pepperoni. When the employee handed her the order, a piece of paper with the words "white woman" was Scotch-taped on the top box.
The woman complained that identifying her as a "white woman" was wrong, and if it were another race everyone would be up in arms.
It didn't end there. The woman contacted Little Caesars' customer service department and demanded an apology.
She says someone from the pizza company contacted her and said the employee was not using race to ID her ... he claimed he was describing the shirt she was wearing. She was forgiving enough that she asked L.C. not to fire the employee.
For their part, Little Caesars gave her 4 large pizzas and breadsticks ... for free.

The Game My Joke About Murdering Someone Didn't Go Over So Well
The Game was joking this morning when he suggested he might have been involved in the murder of a Blood gang member who claimed to have kicked his ass in a LA mall 4 years ago. Bad joke?
Game called into "TMZ Live" ... saying people were twisting his words because he never copped to being involved in the killing when he was on "The Breakfast Club" earlier in the day.
The guy was killed 40 days after the shopping mall confrontation.
Game says when he made reference to the 40 days, he was yakking with Charlamagne Tha God, it was in no way bragging about a killing.
Game then gave us the real life expectancy on anyone threatening his kids ... and it's a lot shorter than 40 days.
