Justin Bieber Sideways Burrito Photo was Fake ... Staged Prank by Yes Theory

You know that viral photo of Justin Bieber eating a burrito from the side? Yeah ... that was fake news, courtesy of the same guys who got Will Smith to jump into the Grand Canyon.

As it turns out, this pic of "Justin" that made the Internet go crazy this past week is a complete farce staged by the YouTube group, Yes Theory ... which they meticulously documented and broke down in an explainer vid posted to their channel Sunday.

It's crazy ... seemingly every major news outlet picked up the story of what appeared to be JB eating a burrito by himself in the park ... biting it from the side, like corn on the cob. Everyone thought it was weird as hell and roasted the pop star for it.

And, get this -- it wasn't even Justin in the photo ... it was a dead-on doppelganger (who's also from Canada) named Brad Sousa. They dressed him up in some Bieber-esque clothes, and voila ... instant viral fame achieved.

Check out their vid to see how the whole thing came together. And, let's remember this lesson ... appearances can be deceiving.

Oprah Throws a Mean Pizza Party For 'Project Runway' Star

O-MAZING SURPRISE
TMZ.com

Oprah partied like it was 2004 ... invoking her most famous catchphrase when she delivered trays upon trays of pizza to surprise "Project Runway" star Michael Costello.

It all went down in downtown L.A. at the fashion designer's store where she showed up with servers and 14 pepperoni pizzas in tow. Michael was celebrating the 1-year anniversary of his joint on Monday, but had ZERO clue about what was gonna happen next.

With everyone gathered around, in came Oprah ... who earlier this month held an "O, That's Good!" pizza contest. Michael just so happened to enter the contest and, yes, he was one of the winners.

Cool moment is when Michael peels off a pepperoni and feeds it to Oprah, who congratulated Michael. They sipped on some bubbly but not before Michael dropped the obligatory "You get a slice! You get a slice!" reference.

Oprah, of course, had to join in. Party attendees included Anastasia Soare of Anastasia Beverly Hills, entertainment reporter XiXi Yang and host Diana Madison. And, an awesome time was had by all.

Kevin Spacey Gets the Boot from Catch LA ... Torn Off Famous Mural!!!

The verdict is in on Kevin Spacey ... at least as far as one Hollywood hot spot is concerned ... he's been 86'd from the restaurant's wall of fame mural.

Spacey used to have a prominent spot on the wall at Catch LA -- right next to NBA superstar and all-around good guy Chris Paul, and not far from Mr. Clean. Irony much? Now, he's been replaced by Sony Music honcho Clive Davis.

It's been a year since the wave of Spacey's sexual misconduct accusers started coming forward. There are multiple active investigations -- in the U.S. and the UK -- however, he has not been criminally charged.

That's all fine in a court of law, but the jury at Catch has already ruled.

George Lopez on Hooters Incident I'm Trump's Kind of Guy Now!!!

PART OF THE CLUB NOW
TMZ.com

George Lopez and Donald Trump may finally see eye-to-eye on something after a scuffle GL was involved in last weekend at a Hooters ... according to George himself.

We got the comedian Sunday at LAX, where we asked about his run-in with a fan who claims George grabbed his neck in a video of the altercation obtained by TMZ. In our clip ... you can see what appears to be George getting handsy with the dude.

George stays tight-lipped on the whole thing -- not wanting to reveal who he thinks was at fault -- but, he does drop one interesting nugget on us ... Trump probably would've been down for the way George handled it -- ya know, 'cause of that whole body slamming thing.

In case you forgot ... Trump praised Congressman Greg Gianforte for putting a reporter on his back last year, saying anyone who could do a full body slam was "my kind of guy."

George certainly remembers the comment, and he seems to imply that his own run-in might've been more than just a neck grab. Oh ... he's also got some (hilarious) thoughts on the Dodgers returning to the World Series to face the Boston Red Sox.

Drake Drops Bars, Serves Trays of Mickey D's At Concert After-Party

Drake just knew his fans were hungry for more ... of him and evidently McDonald's.

Champagne Papi showed up to Poppy in WeHo Wednesday night and didn't come empty-handed ... serving up trays upon trays of cheeseburgers and french fries. Needless to say, the crowd was lovin' it.

Drake had just finished his concert with Migos at The Forum but he wasn't done quite yet. At the nightclub, he grabbed the mic and gave the crowd a bonus performance.

The place was packed like sardines, but everyone -- including Magic Johnson's son, EJ -- seemed to be able to get their hands on some late night grub. Basically, Drizzy saved everyone from making a drive-thru run on their way home.

Drake's L.A. shows already included bringing LeBron James onstage for his Staples Center gig ... but feeding an entire club's gonna win him even more fans.

So, the answer is yes, Drake fans -- you CAN get some fries with that shake.

Mischa Barton Cheers to 'Hills' & New Beginnings ... Already Shooting Reboot

Mischa Barton's already sliding into the reality TV world with an assist from her new pals, Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag -- the new 'Hills' amigos are kicking off their reboot season with raised glasses in hand.

The trio grabbed dinner and drinks Tuesday night for what appears to be the start of filming for "The Hills: New Beginnings." Cameras were rolling while they dined at Bottlefish in Brentwood.

Spencer was still holding a bottle of white wine as they continued chatting outside. Only time will tell what follows from this meetup ... fingers crossed for juicy drama -- or whatever the producers dream up for 'em.

Not too much drama though, for little Gunner's sake. Remember, Speidi are parents now.

As we reported ... Spencer says he's thrilled to have Mischa cross over to the reality of "The Hills" from "The O.C." scripted world -- something he's apparently been wanting for a long time.

Justice Kavanaugh Serving Meals to Homeless ... Hold the Beer, Please

Justice Brett Kavanaugh isn't letting his first week on the High Court throw him off his routine, not when it comes to charity, anyway.

The newly confirmed Supreme Court Justice slipped on a ball cap and rubber gloves to dish out meals to the homeless Wednesday in Washington, D.C.

Kavanaugh was working with Catholic Charities to help feed people in need.

Cynics might see this is as a blatant attempt at image repair after the nightmare of his confirmation hearing, but the truth is ... this appears to be a regular thing for him. The Justice was also seen serving up grub to the homeless back in July with the same organization.

No truth to the rumors Donkey Dong Doug accompanied Kavanaugh to pitch in at the event.

Bill Cosby Chicken Cutlet Prison Smackdown ... It Wasn't Me!!!

Bill Cosby's comedy is not bombing in prison ... at least not to the point where inmates are hurling food at him.

There are reports out that Cosby cracked a joke that another inmate found distasteful and reacted by removing a chicken patty from the bun and throwing it at Cosby, smacking him in the face.

An official from the Pennsylvania Dept. of Corrections tells TMZ, "This did NOT happen, and I am unhappy with anyone who is reporting such fake news."

The official says Cosby isn't even mingling with other inmates yet ... he has no contact whatsoever. That's because he's being evaluated by prison staff and, until they determine the extent to which he should interact with other inmates, he's by himself and in his own cell.

Cosby's 2 weeks into his 3 to 10 year sentence for sexual assault.

Bruce Springsteen The Boss Watches a Tough Loss ... For Giants Game at NJ Bar

Bruce Springsteen looked the way a lot of NY Giants fans felt Sunday after a gut-wrenching loss against the Carolina Panthers ... with the game slipping away in the final seconds.

The Boss was spotted at Wonder Bar in Asbury Park, New Jersey watching the Giants game with friends. The team was up by a point after a clutch touchdown by rookie Saquon Barkley in the last minute of the game -- but Cam and co. came charging back up the field.

As great of a play as Saquon made, it was trumped by Panthers kicker Graham Gano in the last 6 seconds of the game ... when he kicked a 63-yard field goal to win it 33-31.

Now, we don't know if Bruce was watching these last few plays -- but based on how down and out he looks here ... we're just gonna say it's very possible. Eyewitnesses tell us he rode to the bar on his motorcycle earlier in the day, and had some beer and a burger while there.

As you might know, Bruce is no stranger to Asbury Park. He's a local boy -- and this is a place we're told he frequents from time to time with loved ones. His hometown, for sure.

Kanye West Celebrates Dad Beating Cancer In Weirdest Way Possible

Kanye West and his father are buggin' out -- in a good way -- to celebrate his old man beating cancer.

Ye just announced in a very unique way that his dad, Ray West, has kicked cancer's ass ... by sharing a photo of a plate full of bugs.

West says ... "My dad and I are going to eat this plate of bugs to celebrate him beating cancer. No more fear."

Kanye's in Detroit Tuesday ... so it's unclear where he was able to find this cuisine.

We broke the story ... Ray was diagnosed with prostate cancer in July -- not stomach cancer as was first believed -- and Kanye dropped everything to help out upon getting the news.

Fortunately, it seems like it's all good for his dad now.

Can't wait to see how they celebrate when Ye releases his new album.

Lil Xan Here's How Hot Cheetos Sent Me Straight To the Hospital

CHEETING DEATH
TMZ.com

Lil Xan says he ain't about to quit Hot Cheetos cold turkey ... even if they did burn a hole in his stomach -- as he claims -- and he proved it right in front of us.

We got Xan Wednesday at Irving Plaza in NYC, where he told us exactly what happened when he landed in the back of an ambulance a couple days ago. He eventually laid blame on eating too many Hot Cheetos ... calling it "one hell of a drug."

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

A lot of people thought Xan was just trolling, but he assures he absolutely wasn't. It's kind of a wild story -- one filled with Chile Limon, stomach aches, vomiting ... and blood.

Despite the medical crisis, Xan's still down to clown around with his fave snack. Watch what happens when he busts out a bag. Let's just say he didn't shy away.

Fingers crossed he's fully recovered!

Patrick Mahomes Turning Down Big Endorsement Deals ... Says Agent

092418_leigh_steinberg_kal
ALL SIGNS POINT TO GREATNESS
TMZSports.com

The NFL's MVP through the first 3 weeks ain't cashing in on his early season success ... 'cause Patrick Mahomes' agent tells TMZ Sports -- NO BIG DEALS UNTIL THE OFFSEASON!!

Leigh Steinberg -- the super agent who represents the Chiefs' QB -- says it's all part of a plan to make sure Patrick keeps a level head throughout his first year as a starter.

"We're being very, very careful to allow this season to proceed without his face on every billboard," Leigh tells us.

"Without it creating a situation where he throws the first interception and people are saying, 'Well, why's he on every billboard??'"

Don't get it twisted ... Mahomes -- who's tossed 13 TDs with no picks in K.C.'s 3-0 start -- has done SOME deals ... BUT, the big fish are currently on ice.

"We're keeping it low key," Leigh says. "And, once the season is successfully over, then we'll go into marketing in a lot of different brand categories."

BTW ... if you were wondering what Patrick's eyeing for his first big endorsement -- Steinberg tells us Mahomes' mug could be on a cereal box near you this winter.

Bill Cosby 1st Meal in Jail Includes Pudding ... Yes, Seriously

Bill Cosby will be facing his pudding-peddling past this week in the slammer, 'cause he's being served the custard dessert as part of his first meal behind bars ... TMZ has learned.

Sources at Montgomery County Correctional Facility -- where Cosby is being held before he eventually gets transferred to prison -- tell us inmates will be eating good Tuesday night with a nice helping of a chicken patty with gravy, mixed veggies, mashed potatoes, iced tea mix ... and, of course, vanilla pudding for dessert.

No official word on the brand of pudding ... but hopefully it's Jell-O. That'd be poetic justice, wouldn't it?

As we reported ... Cosby was sentenced to three to ten years in a Pennsylvania state prison Tuesday after being convicted on three counts of aggravated assault earlier this year. He was remanded and locked up immediately after the sentencing.

Ted Cruz & Wife Heidi Run Out of D.C. Restaurant ... By Kavanaugh Protesters

Sen. Ted Cruz and his wife got a taste of what Sarah Huckabee Sanders was served, as they were both heckled out of a D.C. restaurant by people protesting Brett Kavanaugh.

Ted and the missus, Heidi Cruz, were trying to dine Monday night at an Italian joint called Fiola, when they were confronted by a group of protesters who were chanting, "We believe survivors." One woman from the group tried to get the TX senator to speak on Kavanaugh in the wake of a second accuser alleging sexual misconduct ... but TC wouldn't bite.

He told the woman, "God bless you, ma'am" ... and it looks like he even tried taking off his jacket off and sitting down for dinner in an attempt to ignore the protesters. They were relentless though, and Ted and Heidi eventually hightailed it out of there.

The couple seems to have left out of a side exit, much to the protesters' shared delight. They were all cheering as the Cruzes exited. Thursday should be fun, huh?

Kylie Jenner Cereal with Milk Saga ... Takes Udderly Adorable Turn

Kylie Jenner's discovery -- that putting milk on cereal is pretty fantastic -- was so moooooving to a California dairy farmer, he decided to pay tribute ... by naming his baby cow after her.

David Jones -- whose family owns Jones Farms in Stevinson, CA -- literally had a cow after Kylie sent shock waves through Twitter Tuesday when she revealed she'd tried cereal with milk for the first time and it was "life changing" ... and that cow's now her namesake.

Kylie the calf was born Wednesday on the farm, and as you can see ... she's so freaking cute.

We broke the story ... Kylie the human may have lied about just trying milk with cereal for the first time this week, because we found an Instagram post of hers from 2013 in which it appears she had bran flakes with milk.

Then again, it might have been yogurt.

Either way ... she's milking it for all it's worth.
