Taylor Swift Obsessed Fan Shows Up At Home to Marry Her

Published | Updated

Taylor Swift got an unwanted groom on her Rhode Island doorstep ... and no, we don't mean Calvin Harris.

According to cops, the man drove to her Westerly, RI mansion Wednesday ... claiming he was scheduled to see Taylor. Witnesses tell TMZ the man was crying and told officers Taylor was supposed to marry him, but now she's with Tom.

Taylor's security team first stopped him at her gate and called police, who transported him to a hospital for mental evaluation. His car was towed from the scene.

It's unclear if Swift was home at the time of the incident. She hopped a flight to Australia late on Wednesday.

NFL's Davone Bess Video Of SWAT Team Raid During Arizona Standoff

THE INTENSE FOOTAGE

TMZ Sports has obtained police body cam footage from the SWAT team raid on ex-NFL wide receiver Davone Bess ... including the moment officers sicced an attack dog on him.

27 police officers assisted in the June 19th incident -- including the SWAT team, which was called in because Bess had barricaded himself in his Arizona home, brandished a knife and had threatened to shoot cops.

According to the police report, obtained by TMZ Sports, the whole thing started when Bess fled during a routine traffic stop -- and locked himself in his Gilbert, AZ home.

The report paints a picture of a very mentally disturbed person -- with 30-year-old Bess repeatedly making bizarre demands, incoherent statements and losing track of where he was.

Cops ultimately used a K9 unit to apprehend Bess, fearing he was a danger to himself and others. According to the report, the dog bit Bess for 30 seconds.

After he was taken into custody, Bess demanded a hamburger and K-Y Jelly ... fell asleep while being questioned by officers ... and eventually explained that he initially fled from cops because he was "searching for peace."

Earlier in the evening, Bess' mother told officers her son suffered from depression and had multiple head injuries from playing in the NFL. Bess was in the league from 2008 to 2013.

She also said he had been hospitalized weeks before the incident, had made suicidal statements in the past and that the family was trying to get him help for mental health issues.

A seemingly confused Bess admitted to smoking marijuana, drinking vodka and taking Zoloft (an anti-depression, anti-anxiety drug) before the police incident.

Bess was ultimately arrested and charged with unlawful flight from a law enforcement vehicle. If convicted, he faces up to 2 years in prison. His family clearly wants a judge to order him to get mental help instead of a jail sentence.

Bess has since plead not guilty and is due back in court in August.

Pablo Escobar's Brother Threatens Netflix Over 'Narcos'

Published | Updated

Pablo Escobar's brother just put Netflix on alert -- cut us in on "Narcos" ... or else.

Roberto Escobar -- the accountant in Pablo's empire -- fired off a letter to Netflix in which he demands the media company put the brakes on season 2, unless the company gets a sign off from him.

He claims season 1 was riddled with inaccuracies and lies and says his brother would not like the portrayal one bit.

Roberto calls his letter -- obtained by TMZ -- "a friendly request for cooperation." He wants a cut of the profits.

The letter itself is interesting for several reasons. Our sources say it was written by Roberto at an undisclosed location in Colombia. And it's stamped with the Escobar family seal.

Roberto claims undying loyalty to Pablo, saying, "I was Pablo's closest ally, managing his accounting and he is my brother for life."

Software Giant John McAfee Mime Changing Careers At 70

Published | Updated

Antivirus software legend John McAfee should be counting his piles of money and settling into retirement, but no -- he says he's looking for face paint and a park to pester people ... as a mime.

We've seen the hilarious email McAfee fired off to L.A. publicist Domenick Nati -- who's looking to rep McAfee. He says at the age of 70, he's "finally come to terms with the full nature of my ambitions. I have always wanted to become a mime."

McAfee wisely asked Nati if he has experience working with mimes, and adds, "Specifically, have you advanced their careers?"

We reached out to McAfee and, while there was no "LOL" in his original email, he says he was kidding ... he's actually considering becoming a puppeteer.

We're guessing this is a joke since John's already juggling a lot. Besides his alleged mime and puppeteer ambitions ... the multimillionaire inventor of McAfee AntiVirus software has been trying to get the Libertarian presidential nod.

Never hurts to have a plan B or C.

THE SCARY EXPLOSION

Nick Young came thiiiis close to losing his hand in a stupid fireworks accident ... when the NBA star picked up a tube holding a lit artillery shell ... and it exploded while he was holding it.

It all went down at Nick's massive 4th of July party at his L.A. home -- when Nick saw the lit fuse ... and thought it would be fun if he set it off while holding it over his head.

Lucky for Nick, he escaped from the situation unscathed ... but it was a verrrrry close call.

The whole situation is eerily similar to the story Jason Pierre-Paul told in his PSA where he describes the moment he blew up his hand in a July 4th fireworks accident.

Careful Nick, now that Iggy's out of the picture ... you're probably gonna need that hand.

'Love & Hip Hop' Star Alleged Saks Spree Might Cost Her 3 YEARS!

Published | Updated

"Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" star Karen King is staring down some serious prison time for allegedly going on a shopping spree ... with someone else's identity.

King was arrested in May after cops say she strolled into Saks Fifth Ave in ATL and racked up a $5k bill on dresses, perfumes, shoes and other accessories. The D.A. just hit her with 3 felony charges -- one for financial identity fraud, and two for credit card fraud.

Each carries a sentence of at least a year behind bars if she's convicted.

TMZ obtained video of the arrest when it went down, and at least Karen can say ... she was dressed to the nines for her arrest! Unclear if the outfit came from Saks though.

A shame actually ... we found a video that proves T-Mac actually has some real ball-kicking talent.
