Famous Food

Here's Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori on a dinner date in Tokyo ... where the conversation looks anything but riveting.

Ye and Bianca hit up Ukiyo restaurant in Tokyo ... and judging by a photo of the couple at their table for two, they look pretty glum-faced and depressed.

Kanye and Bianca have been doing a lot of traveling lately ... she was in Los Angeles last week -- going shopping and hitting up Disneyland -- before flying back to Tokyo, where they spent time together earlier this month.

President-elect Donald Trump tapped Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to Make American Healthy Again ... so you can imagine our suprise when RFK was photographed with a plate of fast food on a private jet with Trump and Elon Musk.

RFK Jr. has been railing against bad things in our food for years, so it's fair to wonder if he actually took a bite of the McDonald's burger, nuggets and fries he was given for a photo op on a plane ride to Mar-a-Lago ... and we examine it all on today's edition of TMZ TV Hot Takes.

Check out the clip from "TMZ Live" ... Harvey and Charles kick start the debate ... did RFK Jr. really eat the Golden Arches. Some of us in the office are having a hard time believing it, and the picture kinda says it all.

A 145-year-old bakery in Staten Island wants an apology from Whoopi Goldberg ... because they say her claim they denied her order over her left-leaning politics couldn't be further from the truth.

Here's the deal ... Whoopi had Charlotte Russe -- the dessert, not the store -- on "The View" this week as a sweet treat for her 69th birthday, and during the segment, she said she wouldn't name the bakery that made the cakes, because she felt they initially refused to make them for her ... because they didn't like her politics.

Whoopi told the audience the bakery blamed their ovens when she tried and failed to pre-order some Charlotte Russe cakes ... but she said someone from the show was able to go over to the bakery and pick up the grub on the morning of her birthday, leading her to suspect her support for Kamala Harris was the real culprit.

Katy Perry's enjoying the local cuisine in Mexico ... enjoying a taco fiesta with a big group of friends, gulping down the delicious dish.

The singer-songwriter was filmed in Mexico City this week ... grabbing a bite to eat in a regular restaurant -- and she's not in a VIP section, she's sitting dead center.

Check it out ... Katy's sitting with pals at a big table, and she takes a big bite out of a taco, covering her mouth with her hand as she chews.

John Krasinski has a seat at the table with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck ... joining them for dinner after being anointed People magazine's 2024 Sexiest Man Alive.

The actor broke bread with Matt and Ben in New York City, hitting the town Tuesday night after accepting the big honor on Stephen Colbert's late-night TV show.

It's pretty cool to see John hanging with Matt and Ben ... Affleck was named People's Sexiest Man Alive way back in 2002 and Damon took home the honor in 2007 ... so these guys have another thing in common now, as all 3 are originally from the Boston metro area.

Take a bite out of these two cheesy photos of Sommer Ray and Jennie Kim! Both gals are sure to give you an appetite, but which lovely lady are you chowin' down some pizza with?

Michael Cohen's defending hismelf from haters who say he's gotta leave the country ... telling them he's not going anywhere -- though his message was muddled by a fowl prank.

Here's the deal ... the former lawyer and alleged fixer to President-elect Donald Trump said back in September he'd leave the country if DJT won relection -- joking he was "already working on a foreign passport with a completely different name."

Cohen also says he'd have to leave his wife and kids behind because he doesn't want them moving to the country he plans to flee to. Clearly, he was joking ... but, a few internet trolls didn't forget.

Donald Trump is on his way back to the White House ... and his former chef hopes he cuts back on the crap and really takes eating healthier seriously.

Chef Andre Rush tells TMZ ... 78-year-old Trump is not the man he was in 2016, and it is imperative he eats better to make sure he's as healthy as possible for his age, and the demands of the job.

And, if DT is not going to do it on his own ... it's up to the kitchen staff to get creative when it comes to meals -- basically, tricking him into eating healthier via tasty dishes, AR tells us.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori went out for a fast-food run in Japan ... and the couple is so famous it's easy to identify them from the back -- thanks to BC's tight, skimpy outfits.

Check out this photo posted to X early Monday morning ... it shows BC and KW from behind, standing at a kiosk ordering their meals at a McDonald's in Tokyo.

Kanye is customarily dressed down in baggy white pants and a green jacket. Bianca, on the other hand, is wearing shiny silver spandex leggings with a matching strapless brassiere.

Lil Durk is hanging in there despite his recent murder-for-hire arrest ... with sources telling us his only complaint is about the food on the inside.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us the Grammy-winning rapper -- who is currently locked up at the Federal Detention Center in Miami -- says he's in "great spirits" while he's going through processing.

We're told he's getting along well with the FDC Miami staff as well as his fellow inmates inside ... with those in the know describing the guy as "super charming" and "agreeable."

Logan Paul is clapping back at all the negativity surrounding his Lunchly company ... saying despite haters praying for its downfall, the sales tell a different story.

The WWE Superstar made one of his usual fact-checking videos on Monday ... this time, addressing his Lunchables alternative -- specifically, the rumblings that the product has been yanked from shelves at the FDA's instruction.

Logan -- who partnered with KSI and MrBeast for the venture -- claimed he got to the bottom of the rumor ... tracking down a grocery store employee who allegedly fessed up to typing a note, printing it out and posting it after hearing chatter about a recall -- but took it down after learning it wasn't true.

Logan Paul, KSI and MrBeast's moldy Lunchly fiasco is on the FDA's radar ... with the agency telling TMZ Sports it has received numerous complaints surrounding the internet superstars' most recent business venture.

The Food and Drug Administration says as of Friday, more than 10 consumers have reported issues with the product ... including one that cited an illness that might be linked to the Lunchables alternative.

The FDA said it is currently reviewing all submissions ... and will provide updates as it determines whether issuing an advisory is necessary to protect public health.

The popcorn bucket wars are heating up, and they are getting downright extreme ... with "Gladiator II" now leading the buttery charge.

Here's the kernel of truth ... the elaborate popcorn bucket for the 'Gladiator' sequel just dropped ... it's an insane design that includes freakin' augmented reality -- and it's leaving social media users in awe.

The impressive snack receptacle for 'G2' is a miniature Colosseum with a QR code ... that when activated shows gladiators doing battle inside!

Donald Trump's photo op at a Pennsylvania McDonald's sparked an avalanche of faux Yelp reviews ... and things got so negative ... or hilarious, depending on how you see it ... the website had to step in and stop it from continuing.

Yelp is no longer allowing reviews for a Mickey D's in Bucks County, PA after Trump's highly-publicized Sunday visit ... and the website tells us it's because folks were flooding the page with fake news.

Honchos at Yelp tell TMZ ... Yelp has a system in place that detects abnormal traffic influxes and that triggers a staff review, and that's what happened with Trump here.

A new dessert at a pizza chain in Washington, D.C. is sparking a big controversy ... and some folks say the treat named after late D.C. Mayor Marion Barry is straight-up racist.

Here's the deal ... a popular restaurant called &pizza recently rolled out a new dessert called "Marion Berry Knots" ... but the big issue seems to be the advertising campaign, which is leaning hard into Marion's infamous crack cocaine arrest.

The food item is a doughy knot stuffed with berries, drizzled with vanilla icing and topped with powdered sugar ... and &pizza says, "Bump up the party with our all-new Marion Berry Knots! It's criminal how good these are."
