This husband will be on the couch for the rest of quarantine -- but this video of him ruining his wife's jigsaw puzzle right before she could add the final piece ... is pretty priceless.
Mr. Prankster (not his gov't name) was recording his wife as she prepared for her one shining moment -- sticking in the last piece after about 3 weeks hard labor on the puzzle.
The guy set it up perfectly, saying ... "and this is the final moment, she gets to put the final piece in ... or does she?" Then, with lightning-quick speed, he slid the whole puzzle off the table in one fell swoop. Even before it all crashed to the floor, his wife was going OFF!!!
He ran for cover in another room ... smart move, but then his wife threatened to get revenge by destroying his fishing rods.
Yep, this is where we are in lockdown life ... couples snapping over puzzles. Buckle up, folks.
Will Ferrelldropped in on a Seattle Seahawks Zoom meeting this week ... making fun of new tight end Greg Olsen and showing off his "yoga bod" -- and it was all absolutely hilarious!!
Ferrell and 'Hawks coach Pete Carroll have a friendship that dates back more than a decade (it's a USC connection) ... and to liven up a mundane football talk Thursday -- PC had the comedian call in.
The results?? They were laugh out loud funny ... with Ferrell pretending to be Olsen and firing off jokes left and right.
"Coach [Brian] Schneider, I just want to let you know -- I want to be real clear -- I do not do special teams," Ferrell said. "Not ever. Not if all 52 guys are hurt."
Ferrell also joked about a bromance with Russell Wilson -- "let's make a baby" -- and even took shots at Olsen's aspiring broadcast career.
But, the best part ... Ferrell poked fun at his bod -- and when the comedy legend pulled up his shirt, everyone on the call busted out in laughter.
"Does this look like the body of a 36-year-old!?" Ferrell said, still pretending to be Olsen. "I don't think so! I don't think so!"
The call eventually ended with the real Olsen joining ... and even he couldn't help but laugh at all the jokes, saying, "That was awesome!"
If we can't have football yet ... at least we've got this. Thanks, Seahawks!
President Trumpfinally coming around to the idea of wearing a face mask during a pandemic would be huge -- but a wax statue figured it out before he did.
The President's wax figure at Madame Tussauds in Berlin is sporting a new look amid the outbreak ... the famed wax museum has added a red mask protecting Trump's mouth and nose.
Of course, it's just wishful thinking on the part of Madame Tussauds ... while the CDC strongly recommends wearing masks and face coverings to slow the spread of the novel virus, POTUS has refused to get with the program.
There are some obvious benefits to wearing a face mask. Even though it's not a substitute for other defenses against COVID-19, like social distancing and hand washing, it's way easier than, say ... ingesting disinfectant.
There is a big update ... Trump's VP Mike PenceIS finally wearing a mask. He put one on Thursday while touring an Indiana General Motors plant.
Interesting, since the veep did not wear one earlier this week at the Mayo Clinic ... and said he didn't NEED to because he's tested all the time, and knew he did not have COVID-19. So, what's changed?
Janet Jackson got mistaken on "Jeopardy!" for another singer you'd never expect her to be confused with -- Ariana Grande ... but we think this is really a famous ponytail mix-up.
Here's what happened -- contestant Alwin Hui chose the $800 clue from the Billboard Music Awards category, and it was ... "As the recipient of the 2018 Icon Award, she took 'Control' and took to the stage in her first live TV performance in nearly a decade."
The answer was followed by a clip of Janet performing "Nasty" at the awards show, so ... pretty simple, right?
Not for Hui, who buzzed in first and guessed, "Who is Ariana Grande?"
Alex Trebek gave him a quick "no" before returning champ Sarah came correct, but naturally, people only care about Hui's gaffe ... and have been roasting him online.
To be fair, Jackson was rocking a hairstyle and getup similar to what Grande's known for ... but the Icon Award doesn't go to artists in their 20s, and Ariana hasn't had a chance to take a decade off from TV performances. Plus, the song clue was a dead giveaway.
Now, this is a story all about how life in America got flipped-turned upside down, and now Will Smith would like to take a minute, so just sit right there, and he'll tell you about reuniting the cast from "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air."
That's right, big Willie is wrapping up his Snapchat show, "Will From Home," with a 2-part finale featuring some of the show's favorite cast members. That, of course, includes Alfonso Ribeiro, Tatyana Ali, Karyn Parsons, Daphne Maxwell Reid, Joseph Marcell and DJ Jazzy Jeff.
Snapchat's "Will From Home
It's the first time the cast is reuniting on-screen since the incredibly popular NBC sitcom ended its 6-season run in May 1996. The Snapchat Original series followed Will practicing social distancing at home with his family. The show proved popular ... with 15 million unique viewers in the first 3 episodes.
The 2-part finale -- broadcasting Wednesday morning with part 2 set for Thursday at 6 AM ET on Snapchat's Discover page -- will include a special tribute to Uncle Phil, the late James Avery.
Tom Green's either up to his old tricks or just needs more sleep during the pandemic, but lucky for him, his fans are feeling compassionate these days ... especially his his old pal, Harland Williams.
Tom was on Instagram Live late Monday night when he appeared to conk out hard in the studio at his L.A. home. Apparently, Tom's fans and friends were concerned and began hitting up Williams ... who decided to drop by to make sure Tom was okay.
Check it out ... the camera's set up just right to catch Harland climbing over Tom's outside wall by his pool, then walking over with a flashlight to knock on the glass door to wake him up.
He popped up and seemed pretty confused, but Tom was clearly fine. Harland told Tom he got a ladder and came over because Tom wasn't responding to texts for 2 hours. Some fans watching even worried he might be dead.
Another viewer called the cops but by the time they got his address he was already awake and alert so they didn't need to go.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
It's got all the earmarkings of a Tom Green prank -- albeit not a very funny one.
Real or not, Tom said he appreciated everyone's concern and eventually got some more sleep.
"I'm mad, I'm pissed off. But, they're just kids."
That's Denny Hamlin trying to keep his composure after his adorable 7-year-old daughter accidentally SHUT OFF HIS SCREEN DURING A VIRTUAL RACE!!!
The video is HILARIOUS (unless you're Denny) -- showing the 39-year-old driving competition in an iRacing Pro Invitational Series event on Sunday ... when all of the sudden, his daughter, Taylor, enters the room mid-race!
Taylor clearly doesn't understand that daddy is in the middle of a very important race -- and starts asking him if she can play with the go-karts.
She also happens to be holding the remote control to the screen Denny is using to race ... and accidentally HIT THE POWER BUTTON!
Once the screen goes black, Denny is eliminated -- which made him finish LAST in a 39 car race at the virtual track at Talladega Superspeedway.
You can hear Denny say, "My screen just went black" ... as Taylor sheepishly says, "Uh-oh."
"That was unfortunate," Hamlin said after the incident ... "That's just something you don't hear every day, folks."
It's not the first time we've seen an athlete disqualified after a technology blunder -- an Ironman champ lost a virtual race earlier this month when her husband accidentally unplugged the power cord that tied her to the event!
A Bronx storefront is a perfect example of when keeping it real goes RIGHT -- the owner is giving his customers some straight talk, in very explicit terms, over coronavirus protocol.
Check out this sign posted in the window of what appears to be a liquor store or bodega of some sort in the NYC borough, which tells its patrons exactly what's expected of them as they come in and shop ... without any room for misunderstanding, or coddling at all.
The sign reads, "COVID-19 IS SOME REAL S***! Cover your f***ing mouth! Shut the f*** up! Buy your s*** and leave immediately." Oh, it gets better ... the owner lets it rip!!!
They continue, "Absolutely NO titty or sock money! Stand back at least 6 feet, playa. Store capacity limited to 5 motherf***ers at once. You cough, you die. Drink responsibly."
It's interesting ... the scientists and doctors aren't getting through to a large number of Americans with rock-solid data, so this seems like a viable Plan B.
We gotta say, the dude (or dudette) who put this up deserves an award of some kind, because instead of tip-toeing around what NEEDS to be said, they just came right out and told it how it is. No pussy-footing or sugar-coating ... just to-the-point, NYC instructions.
It's funny too -- this very much reminds of us of Michael Rapaport (a New York-native himself) coming out with an expletive-filled PSA telling youngsters and their parents to stop screwing around and stay indoors, while other celebs came out with PC/watered-down takes of their own. Those Big Apple dwellers sure do have a way with words, huh?
Anyway, here's hoping the message finally gets through -- maybe the powers that be can take a cue from this and start talking about the issue with the seriousness it deserves.
It was brilliant ... Dr. Anthony Fauci said if someone ended up playing him on 'SNL' he'd be happy if it was Brad Pitt -- last night the good doc got his wish!!!
Brad was in top form ... nailing the gravely voice of the infectious disease honcho as he sat behind a desk, trying to reconcile the views of Dr. Fauci and Donald Trump.
But, first things first ... 'SNL' Fauci mused about the emails he's received from some of his older, female fans.
Then -- down to business. When Trump said a vaccine was coming "relatively soon," Tony explained the word "relatively" is, well, relative.
Then, the words, "Everyone can get a test," actually means virtually nobody can get tested.
As for ingesting disinfectant ... well, ya gotta watch Brad's facial expressions.

CNN
What makes Brad's appearance especially hilarious ... Dr. Fauci was on CNN and actually chose Brad Pitt to play him. Actually, he chose very reluctantly, and his choices were Ben Stiller or Pitt.
The end of the skit is great because Brad takes off his Fauci-esque headgear and delivers a heartfelt thank you to Dr. Fauci.
The comedians teamed with the world-famous Comedy Store on Sunset Blvd. to raise $100k for their less fortunate comrades in stand-up by creating 3 episodes of a live, on-camera podcast.
Dave was a special, unannounced guest on the final episode, which ended up being a virtual reunion for "Chappelle's Show." The comic legend brought it back to his old Comedy Central days, telling jokes alongside Neal Brennan, Burr and Donnell Rawlings-- and it was a huge hit.
Social distancing was in effect ... everyone joined in from home for some virtual comedy.
Whitney hosted the benefit's first episode, along with D'Elia, Bobby Lee, Andrew Santino, and Tim Dillon. Tom Segura hosted the second episode with Joey Diaz, Bert Kreischer and Theo Von ... but the big draw was Dave getting the band back together.
If you missed the live broadcasts Tuesday night, don't worry, the episodes are on YouTube and will also be available Monday on demand through The Comedy Store Channel on Roku, Apple TV and Xbox.
Audiences donated $100,000 directly to The Comedy Store Family Fund -- a safety net for comics with ties to the venue, as well as staff -- by text message during the live broadcast, and fans can keep donating by texting TCSFamily to 41444.
Jeff Ross couldn't stay away from what he does best -- roasting people on a big platform -- so he got right back to it with some newbie volunteers ... quarantine-style, of course.
The comedian held an Insta-Roast Saturday on IG Live, which didn't feature any big celebs like his usual roasts do -- instead, he picked out random users who were joining the chat to hop on up and have him take some light-hearted shots at them, impromptu and off the cuff.
Safe to say, the roasting did NOT disappoint -- Jeff didn't skip a beat in pinpointing the goofiest thing about anyone who was brave enough to let Jeff have at 'em. He made fun of a guy who apparently resembled the garbage man version of Boy George. Nice!
He also asked why one gal was bent forward on her elbows while talking to him, with Jeff asking if she was getting banged from behind. She laughed, and then showed off her BF, who was NOT doing that. He went on to tell one couple that they looked like they'd eaten all their toilet paper, while telling another woman she looked like she just got out of jail.
Everybody got a laugh out of it, and Jeff himself even noted he needed this ... sounds like he's going a little stir crazy too and wanted to get back to normal as safely as possible.
Looks like people were down with the digital roast -- if it becomes a regular thing, more power to him.
Travis Scott went live to join in with the fans enjoying his virtual concert on Fortnite, but had to cut it short ... because his adorable daughter, Stormi, demanded more of his attention.
The rapper debuted his new track, "The Scotts," Thursday night within the insanely popular video game, and although it attracted an all-time record audience of 12.3 MILLION concurrent players ... one little 2-year-old was the star of the evening.
Travis, Stormi and mama Kylie Jenner were all online to watch the historic musical/gaming performance ... but the toddler seemed to have other interests.
HOLY... the Travis Scott event in Fortnite was the one of the COOLEST events yet! Absolute UNREAL! pic.twitter.com/dvGLzuPCO4
Check it out -- once Travis finds the remote, thanks to whoever Josh is, Stormi briefly greets her dad's large audience ... then wants to watch a movie. Of course, 2-year-olds usually get what they want.
As for Travis' new hit song ... there will be encore presentations on Fortnite until Sunday. All players who are signed up can enjoy the virtual performance ... which is all there is until artists can start doing real concerts again.
It sure LOOKED like Mike Vrabel's son was busted on the can during the NFL Draft ... but the Titans coach insists he was NOT POOPING!
Social media blew up when live NFL Draft coverage switched over to Vrabel's home, which was weird from the jump!
Was there a guy wearing a Frozone costume from "The Incredibles"? Yes.
Was there a guy with a blonde mustache and mullet-wearing Vrabel's old Pro Bowl jersey? Indeed.
Is that guy pooping in the background?! Not exactly ...
Vrabel says the alleged dumper is his son, Tyler -- but Coach is adamant he was NOT dropping a deuce with the door open!!!
Mike claims Tyler was simply sitting on a stool -- which makes sense.
Do you REALLY think the guy would do his biz with the door open with a live TV feed running inside the house? Probably not.
Still, what a weird night.
Oh, and did you see when the Titans drafted lineman Isaiah Wilson from Georgia and his mom basically physically removed his girlfriend from his lap?!?!?
Leslie Jordan is fast becoming a social media darling, but it's what he's NOT doing with his sudden IG fame that sets him apart ... especially in Hollywood.
The viral sensation joined us Wednesday on "TMZ Live" and we asked Leslie how he's been able to skyrocket from about 80,000 Insta followers to a whopping 3.5 million in only a matter of weeks.
Leslie says the recipe for success is pretty simple ... he's not looking to monetize his videos, he's just being himself -- a silly, funny, goofy, happy-go-lucky senior citizen. You can tell he's genuine, just listen to him talk about learning new IG terminology.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
If you aren't among the millions of folks to recently discover Leslie's page in quarantine, you're missing out on his hilarious videos ... like his back scratch workout, which he breaks down for us in his own special way.
Prior to sheltering in place, Leslie was best known for his work on "Will and Grace" and "American Horror Story" ... but he tells us why he's not watching scripted shows or movies while he's in quarantine.
Besides, who needs scripted content when you've got hundreds of Leslie videos for free!!!
Soccer superstar Paul Pogba is keeping the competitive spirit during the coronavirus pandemic ... and his latest victim is none other than his OWN MOTHER!!!
The Manchester United stud made his mom look straight-up foolish in a hilarious clip this week ... hittin' her with a nutmeg for the ages while getting some fresh air.
"When your mum tell you she played football before 🤣🤣🤣" the French footballer captioned the vid ... while also adding a very thoughtful message:
"Love and spend time with your parents before they leave this world."
Not only is he pulling soccer tricks, Paul's also been keeping busy in the kitchen as well by making desserts like galette des rois for his mama.
We take it mom will be ready for round 2 here soon.
Teddy Riley and Babyface put their reading glasses back on for another round of IG Live battling, but even on take 2 ... the event was technology-challenged.
The two R&B icons hopped back on the 'Gram Monday night to pick up where they left off over the weekend -- which went down in a fireball in what proved to be a huge fail. Welp, fortunately, running it back turned out to be a bit more successful (the guys were actually able to play some music and hear each other this time) but eventually ... it came to a halt.
So here's the gist ... Teddy and Face were on the same page at first, and did exactly what artists are supposed to do for these Live battles -- namely, play their biggest hits back and forth, and let the audience tuning in to decide who takes the round. That went on for a solid hour -- IG Live only lets you broadcast for that long -- before the feed finally went dead.
The guys came back on for another session, but for one reason or another ... Teddy's feed cut out completely not too long after they booted back up -- which caused confusion. Babyface -- at first, not entirely sure why Teddy had hopped out -- eventually stopped down and logged off himself to go and see if he could get on Teddy's IG Live sesh.
At this point, it turned into a game of Who's On First -- Teddy had, indeed, started his own IG Live sesh, but was back with a full musical set-up with live instruments. As he was waiting for Face to join the session, he started playing music to kill time, and was going IN doing it. Sadly, he didn't realize Babyface was at the door asking to be let in -- Teddy was that distracted -- and finally, his team got through to him. Everyone in the comments was trying to tell Teddy too, BTW.
This is where the "breaking the Internet" part happened ... Teddy was not able to let Baby back into the chat, try as he did. People chalked it up to him being an elder and unable to figure out the tech, but that's not the case ... it was Instagram's fault. Their network was jacked up because of how many people -- several hundreds of thousands -- watching.
It got so bad, IG finally had to say, "We love how much you're all enjoying the #TeddyRileyvBabyface Live on Instagram! We're experiencing some technical difficulties on mobile apps but we're working on it. In the meantime, live is available on desktop!"
But, by then, the damage was done. Baby and Teddy cut the battle short ... again. At least this time, people got to hear them actually do their thang. Better than nothin' 🤷🏽♂️
