Marlon Wayans says he's enjoying a simplified sex life these days ... preferring good old-fashioned missionary to more acrobatic lovemaking.

The actor-comedian got real about himself doing the deed during an interview with People, published Saturday ... admitting he's less inclined to go for circus-like sex as he's gotten older.

Marlon says he appreciates the simple stuff like "Missionary — it's great. I don't need to swing from ceilings and twist up nothing, because after we're done, I can just go right to sleep."

Khloe Kardashian slimming down had an effect in a unique way -- 'cause she says dropping pounds trimmed those hard-to-reach areas as well -- including her freaking vagina.

The reality star opened up about losing weight on Thursday's episode of "The Kardashians" on Hulu ... and she says ever since she's lost weight, she's lost her close friend "Camille" -- the name she gave to her camel toe.

Watch ... what starts out as a lovely conversation about micro-penises between Khloe and her half-sister Kylie Jenner, takes a personal turn when KK uses the term "microp***" -- before admitting she wishes she had a smaller hoo-ha herself.

Lenny Kravitz's decision to go nearly a decade without taking anyone to bed is baffling for Ice-T ... so much so, he thinks the rock star is completely off his rocker.

After LK randomly revealed he's been on a spiritual journey that's led him to be celibate for 9 years, Ice-T reacted with the purest response you could imagine -- saying ... "9yrs without Sex? F that BS. Weirdo s***."

LK also revealed a deeply rooted reason why he's stayed celibate ... his parents split up when he was a teen and he watched his father spiral into a playboy lifestyle ... which became Lenny's reality once he divorced his ex Lisa Bonet.

Matt Rife's taking some much-needed time off from his comedy tour -- putting a pause on a string of shows after nearly passing out from exhaustion ... TMZ has learned.

According to a message received by upcoming date ticketholders -- viewed by TMZ -- Rife was on his way to his show at the University of Indiana to perform two shows Wednesday when he experienced symptoms of extreme exhaustion and nearly passed out.

Rife's medical team advised him to immediately take a break ... and, that's exactly what he's doing -- scheduled to pick up the tour again on June 12 in Memphis. So, 2 weeks off.

A bunch of Indianans missed out on comedy shows from Matt Rife this week -- this after he abruptly canceled two sold-out gigs ... something he says he's very sorry about.

The comic was scheduled to perform 2 comedy shows Wednesday in Bloomington, IN -- and according to reports on the ground ... MR and co. pulled the plug on both of them very last-minute, apparently about 20 minutes or so after the first show was already set to start.

Of course, people were pissed and started firing away on social media ... slamming Matt for the late heads-up, and were extra pissed since these shows had already been postponed from February.

A Michigan judge was left practically speechless after a suspended driver video called into his courtroom ... while doing the one thing he definitely shouldn't have been doing.

Check it out ... Corey Harris joined his court hearing for driving with a suspended license via Zoom on May 15 ... and to the surprise of the court, is visibly driving a car.

Corey makes it no secret that he is driving either ... when a shocked Judge J. Cedric Simpson asks him if he is, in fact, operating a vehicle, CH replies ... "I’m pulling into my doctor’s office actually."

Jerry Seinfeld's calling for the grand return of dominant masculinity -- even though, he ironically acknowledges he's not exactly the poster boy for that trait himself.

On the "Honestly with Bari Weiss" podcast, Jerry admitted his comedy career's taken him on quite a childish journey instead of his desire to embody traditional masculinity. Still, he's not backing down on his ideas about what it means to be a "real man."

JS gave examples ... reminiscing about the icons of masculinity who wowed him during his childhood -- names like John F. Kennedy, Muhammad Ali, Sean Connery, and Howard Cosell, guys who grew up admiring and aspiring to be like -- all of which he says are gone.

Sarah Silverman's comedy style has changed quite a bit since she first burst onto the scene -- and she says there's a very good reason for it ... Donald Trump.

The comedian recently hopped onto David Duchovny's 'Fail Better' podcast, where she explained how Trump becoming president inspired her to ditch the "arrogant ignorant" persona she became known for when in the 2000s.

She noted that her first comedy special and subsequent Comedy Central show was all centered on a character/shtick she was putting on ... which was an offensive caricature of herself.

A TV news anchor in Boston appeared to swallow a fly live on the air -- but rather than cough up a storm or make a big fuss ... she just downed it and kept on going.

Check out this wild clip that shows Boston 25 News reporter Vanessa Welch leading a newscast late last week when something seemed to fall right into her mouth and down her throat in a flash ... which, of course, happened to be caught on camera.

On its face, it looks to be a bug of some sort -- likely a fly if it was in fact an insect -- but some have suggested it was something else entirely ... maybe an eyelash.

Marc Lamont Hill is over people complaining about nepo-babies in Hollywood ... sharing his stance on the heels of North West's controversial "Lion King" casting.

We got the author Tuesday on "TMZ Live," where he defended Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's oldest daughter for using her celebrity status to land a role in the Hollywood Bowl production of the Disney classic -- despite her lack of singing ability.

Marc said out loud the thing just about everyone in showbiz already knows -- "In every movie, every play, every domain of pop culture, somebody casts somebody who's not that good ... We've put rappers in movies for the last 30 years ... and the reason we do it is because people are famous and famous people bring in tickets."

Terry Crews plans to pull up to Anderson Silva's boxing match in June ... but, he's not going to fight the MMA legend as he recently implied on social media -- he's simply going to support his buddy!

In case you missed it, the shirtless actor went on Instagram last week and delivered a message for the UFC legend, saying he's been training and is ready to see him June 15.

Fans figured Crews was throwing out a potential fight, but the 55-year-old told TMZ Sports that's simply not the case.

"South Park" took direct aim at the whole "body positivity" movement and used Lizzo as its weapon.

The episode -- titled "The End of Obesity" -- uses the singer as the alternative to Ozempic. It features Eric Cartman in a doctor's office trying to score some O, but he can't afford it and insurance isn't an option.

The doc says, “I’m going to write you a prescription for Lizzo. She’s a really good singer who talks about body positivity, and just being happy with the way you look. I want you to listen to Lizzo five times a day, and watch her videos just before bedtime. I’m afraid you’ll have to be on Lizzo for the rest of your life.”

Then the episode gets all official, claiming the FDA gave its stamp of approval, concluding ... “Lizzo helps you eat everything you want, and keep physical activity to a minimum….stop listening to Lizzo if you experience suicidal thoughts. Serious side effects may include pancreatitis, hypothermia, and literally s****ing out of your ears.”

When "South Park" drops a new special called, "The End of Obesity," ya gotta know someone or something's getting destroyed -- and in this case, it's weight loss drugs and Lizzo ... via "body positivity."

Here's the deal ... in the Paramount+ special, which started streaming Friday, the women of "South Park" (and, of course, the buffoon Randy), all turn to Ozempic to lose weight ... while lying by saying they're exercising to drop the lbs.

Cartman, the iconic angry, fat kid on the long-running cartoon, wants some of that sweet Ozempic for himself -- but since he doesn't have diabetes, insurance won't cover it, and he can't afford the hefty price tag.

Michael Richards' Laugh Factory ban could come to an end ... 'cause the owner's open to having him back -- if he's truly learned the error of his ways.

Jamie Masada -- owner of the iconic comedy joint in Hollywood -- tells TMZ ... he booted the actor-comedian for good after his infamous 2006 rant at the club because he believes hate speech isn't acceptable, so Michael earned himself the ban for his racist remarks.

But, Masada says he believes in second chances and doesn't want to hold a grudge, so Michael could make a return to the venue ... but, only if he's truly a reformed man.

"Seinfeld" star Michael Richards is not looking for a redemption arc -- even though he's finally coming out of hiding -- but he does want to clarify a few things related to his infamous Hollywood Laugh Factory incident.

The actor's rarely been seen since the 2006 rant when he shouted the n-word and other racial insults at an African-American man who was heckling him during his standup routine.

Michael told People Mag he was immediately sorry in the aftermath of that meltdown -- and nearly 2 decades later he insists ... "I'm not racist. I have nothing against Black people. The man who told me I wasn’t funny had just said what I’d been saying to myself for a while. I felt put down. I wanted to put him down."

Shohei Ohtani is putting his historic contract to good use -- the Dodgers superstar just snagged a ritzy mansion in Los Angeles for $7.85 million ... a place formerly owned by comedian Adam Carolla.

Details on the deal were released this week ... with the L.A. Times reporting the Japanese two-way athlete is the buyer of the La Cañada Flintridge digs.

The pad -- built in 2013 -- is perfect for a guy like Ohtani. It's a three-story, five-bedroom, six and 1/2-bathroom home that comes with a decked-out kitchen, private movie theater, basketball court and gym ... as well as a pool and spa.
