TRASHING 'THE VIEW'
The Joe Rogan Experience

Joe Rogan crapped on "The View" after his latest guest came on and recounted what he felt was a bad experience on the show -- and he had some choice words for the ladies there.

The comedian/podcaster hosted Coleman Hughes on 'JRE' Wednesday, and they were recapping his appearance on "The View" from last week ... in which Coleman got into a testy exchange with Sunny Hostin over the topic of race and color blindness.

CH -- who has a book that argues that society needs to focus less on race and more so on class and socioeconomic status -- says he believes Sunny unfairly attacked him.

KISS Sells Catalog, Likeness for $300M ... To ABBA Hologram Co.

KISS just sold their entire music catalog -- not to mention their entire image -- to a company that puts on hologram shows for legendary music acts ... and they did it for a pretty penny.

The iconic rock band struck a deal with Pophouse Entertainment, selling off not only their music but their name and likeness for upwards of $300 million, per reports. BTW, this is the same company they were already set to do a full digital avatar residency with.

Pophouse is also the same company that's been doing those hologram ABBA shows -- and like we said, KISS is already teaming up with them anyway ... so this move makes sense.

Diddy Federal Probe Hollywood in Documentary Race ... Multiple in the Works!!!

The ongoing Diddy legal saga is getting the documentary treatment, and it's gonna happen several times with several companies ... TMZ has learned.

Sorry, Big3 fans ... WNBA coach Stephanie White believes you will NOT see Caitlin Clark in the 3-on-3 league this year -- this despite the obvious temptation of Ice Cube's $5 MILLION offer.

The Connecticut Sun head coach told Harvey and Charles on "TMZ Live" on Wednesday she feels the legacy Clark can build in the WNBA will ultimately trump the Big3's cash when it comes time to make a decision.

Of course, Clark has yet to mull everything -- she said last week she wants to wait until Iowa's run in the NCAA tournament comes to an end before she chooses her next move.

Guess Who This Sweet Boy Turned Into!

Before this cool kid born on Easter Sunday turned into an actor, he was just huggin' on his momma's leg, rockin' the bucket hat and growing up in Wales before hittin' the stage in the early 2000s.

After succeeding in plays like "Rent" and "Miss Saigon", his role in the "Clash of the Titans" remake put him on the map. And, he was definitely fast and furious in 2013.

He recently launched his own clothing line, and given his fit physique -- which he proudly parades on social media -- he's definitely reppin' his brand with pride!

Can you guess who he is?

Ex-NFL star Vernon Davis says it's still a mystery as to how exactly his brother, Vontae Davis, died earlier this week ... although he said Monday he believes the former Colts cornerback passed away following a session in a sauna.

Vernon says he believes his brother either collapsed or slipped after spending time soaking in steam -- but outside of that, he really is unsure of how the former NFLer passed at just 35 years old.
