Bill Maher has no kids, but he was all about them Friday night as he RAILED on Hollywood and others for putting them at risk.

The 'Real Time' host began with 'Quiet on the Set,' lambasting Nickelodeon for putting child actors in highly-charged, sexual skits.

He then pivoted to Disney, and it quickly became political. Maher noted how Ron DeSantis was skewered as a "hick" and a "bigot" for going after Disney, which Maher says is like an aphrodisiac for pedophiles.

Andy Cohen's not leaving Bravo despite reports claiming he's negotiating a departure package amid legal troubles -- with a network rep blasting the unsubstantiated rumors.

A spokesperson for Bravo tells TMZ ... there is absolutely no truth to the rumor Andy's negotiating an exit from the network -- and they're shutting down any such notion as patently false.

Sources with direct knowledge also tell us a report that cited an anonymous source to run their headline was way off base, and that none of the info that got published was accurate.

Scheana Shay was slinging drinks somewhere other than SUR this week -- working a shift at a Chili's Grill & Bar instead ... going back to her server roots, pre-fame!

In videos obtained by TMZ, the "Vanderpump Rules" star was seen rocking a Chili's uniform Wednesday night while running food to tables and whipping up drinks behind the bar in L.A.'s San Fernando Valley.

It was pretty surreal to see, especially considering Scheana used to work at a Chili's back in the day -- before she skyrocketed in Hollywood by landing on the hit Bravo show.

Mariska Hargitay -- known as Olivia Benson on 'Law & Order' -- temporarily became a real-life cop after a lost little girl was searching for her mother ... and came to her for help.

The child is said to have thought Mariska was an actual police officer as she clocked her prop cop badge .... bolting straight to her for help while the actress was in the middle of filming an 'SVU' episode in NYC last week.

Witnesses report the little girl -- who became separated from her mom while at Anne Loftus Playground in Fort Tryon Park -- didn't even notice the filming crew or Mariska's scene partner, Ice-T, in her search for help. She just went straight for Mariska, apparently.

Kim Kardashian kisses Emma Roberts in the star-studded crowd at the Oscars. Who would think that would ever happen?

Well, it did Wednesday on Fox's latest episode of "American Horror Story: Delicate," starring Kim and Emma.

"The Golden Bachelor" stars Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist divorcing after just 3 months of marriage is throwing Tyler Cameron for a loop, destroying his faith in love ... he says.

Tyler, who was runner-up in the 2019 Bachelorette, sounded off about Gerry and Theresa on SiriusXM's TODAY Show Radio saying the split isn't just a bummer ... it puts a "true stain on love in 'The Bachelor' world."

A bold statement, for sure, from a guy who also didn't find love on the show -- but Tyler explained why the 'Golden divorce' was like having a rug pulled out from under him.

It's only Wednesday, but TMZ's already reported on tons of hot topics this week. Check out some of the best clips below.

On "TMZ Live," Harvey and Charles break down Hollywood producer Carol Baum's comments about Sydney Sweeney's looks and talent.

A poor woman lost her life because both she and her alleged murderer were being scammed by a nefarious third party -- and we talked to some experts who say ... this ain't gonna stop.

Tech expert Lance Ulanoff -- who's covered this field as Editor at TechRadar -- came on "TMZ Live" Wednesday to discuss the fatal shooting of Loletha Hall ... who was gunned down late last month in Ohio after 81-year-old William Brock mistook her for someone trying to secure a ransom out of him.

Lance tells us this is an extreme case of these types of stories -- which he says happen all the time, but usually don't rise to this level of violence and tragedy.

Unfortunately, here it did, and he says it's a cautionary tale on the dangers of these bad actors.

Siggy Flicker's stepson has been arrested -- now facing charges for his alleged role in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot after authorities say his stepmom posted pics of him in the building.

Tyler Campanella -- the former 'Real Housewives' star's stepson -- was taken into custody in New York City Wednesday and booked on five misdemeanor charges, according to NBC News.

The feds claim Campanella's stepmom posted pictures of him from inside the Capitol Building alongside the caption, "I love patriots so much. Stay safe Tyler. We love you.”

Brian Cox has never been one to mince his words, and Joaquin Phoenix is on the chopping block this time over his performance in the "Napoleon" movie.

The "Succession" star unleashed a rapid-fire tirade at London's HistFest this week ... slamming JP's 2023 portrayal of the historical figure as downright awful -- even suggesting he would've done the role more justice.

Brian says, "Terrible. It's terrible. A truly terrible performance by Joaquin Phoenix. It really is appalling. I don’t know what he was thinking. I think it’s totally his fault and I don’t think Ridley Scott helps him."

Mama June is hopping on the weight loss injection bandwagon -- that's after her own efforts to lose 100-plus pounds failed recently.

The reality star dropped an IG clip Tuesday, showing her at the clinic getting a dose of semaglutide -- an FDA-approved prescription commonly known as Ozempic or Wegovy, that had previously been reserved for type 2 diabetes and chronic obesity treatment.

June pretty much admits the shots are her last straw -- turning to them after a long weight loss saga, which kicked off back in May 2015, when she went from 550 lbs down to 311 lbs with the help of gastric sleeve surgery.

Even Zendaya is uncertain about the future of "Euphoria" -- sharing she has zero insight into whether season 3 will ever happen.

During Tuesday's Los Angeles premiere for her new movie, "Challengers," Zendaya let it be known ... she has no say on whether production starts up again for the HBO drama, even though she's credited as an executive producer.

Zendaya told Variety, "I am not in charge. But, of course, if it's right for the characters and everything turns out the way it should, of course. But it's beyond me."

Kate Beckinsale has kept the cause for her recent health issues close to the vest ... until now it seems ... although the signal is literally close to the vest.

The actress posted a series of photos and a video, showing her sitting on a bed while wearing a t-shirt that read, "Tummy Troubles Survivor." If we had to guess, Kate must have been experiencing stomach troubles that landed her in the hospital last month.

Throughout March, Kate uploaded several now-deleted pictures from her hospital bed, even one on UK Mother's Day with a tribute to her mother, but no explanation as to why she was in the hospital.

The week has only just started but, in case you're behind, here are some TMZ TV hot takes to catch up on.

First up, on "TMZ Live," Harvey and Charles discuss Courtney Love's biting criticism of Taylor Swift. She even came for Beyoncé, too!!!
