'Rick and Morty' Co-Creator Sorry 'Bout the Szechuan Sauce ... We Had No Idea!
The guy who co-created Adult Swim's cult hit show, "Rick and Morty," wants to apologize for making McDonald's Szechuan sauce a thing again. Hear him out.
We got Justin Roiland -- who also voices Rick and Morty -- at LAX and asked what he thought about Mickey D's deciding to bring back the infamous dipping sauce, partly due to him writing it into his show. It caused HUGE customer lines ... and Justin's got some regrets, for sure.
For one, he feels badly for McDonald's workers who got raked over the coals by rabid customers.
Bonus fun: Justin told us how he nailed the perfect level of drunkenness to play the mad scientist on his show. Cheers to that, bud.

Diddy 'Brother Love' Was Just Boozy Talk ... But I Still Got Love!!!
Sean Combs gets a little drunk, talks a little smack and next thing ya know he's got a full-blown name change -- and that's the real deal ... according to the former Brother Love himself.
We got Sean -- aka Diddy, Puffy, P. Diddy, etc. -- chilling in NYC, where he broke down how his birthday celebration sent him down the Brother Love path. He says the booze has worn off, but the love-in' is far from over.
The 'Bad Boy' honcho admits the whole thing got too confusing -- not to mention pissing off WWE's Bruce Prichard. Still, Diddy explains he ain't picky when it comes to handles.
Always good to have options!

Wanna see how fast ice hockey players can move on land?
You're in luck ... because when the Nashville Predators team bus left Catch LA restaurant without 2 guys ... they busted out the footspeed to stop their ride from ditching them!
The NHL team was celebrating Sunday night after beating the L.A. Kings the night before -- they were all in a good mood ... signing autographs and taking pics with fans.
But 2 guys were draggin' ass when it came time to leave ... so the bus took off without 'em. That's when the race was on!
Unclear who the guys are -- couldn't see their faces -- but don't worry, this story has a happy ending.

Alec Baldwin SNL's Trump Says Here's How Weinstein Could've Gotten Away with It
Alec Baldwin jumped in the shower with SNL's Alex Moffat to mock the paranoia in Washington that everyone is wired.
Baldwin reprieved his Donald Trump character, who took Moffat -- who plays Paul Manafort -- to the shower where it would be impossible to record their conversation.
And then, of course, the Harvey Weinstein joke from Baldwin ... "What an idiot that Harvey Weinstein is, he could've gotten away with all of it if he was elected president."
Equally funny ... Larry David playing Bernie Sanders on "The Price is Right."
Selena Gomez Just a Kid at Heart
Selena Gomez became the cool new kid on the block ... 'cause she went for a bike ride and conquered a school yard.
Selena was hangin' out with a bunch of L.A. school kids Monday after a bike ride with a pal ... and rather than shy away, she embraced the attention.
Selena posed with the posse as they chaotically flocked around her. She kept her cool, though ... even putting up some shots.
No sign of Justin Bieber -- we guess he was all tapped out after Sunday. As for new solo Selena ... seems like she's very much over Abel by the looks of her biking face.

Gwyneth Paltrow Gets A-Head of 'Se7en' Spoilers ... With Halloween Costume
If you're reading this, it's too late to not know Gwyneth Paltrow loses her head in the movie "Se7en" ... but it's not too late to get a kick out of her Halloween costume.
Gwyneth posted a photo Sunday of her costume this year -- and it's a straight tribute to her role in the 1995 thriller she starred in alongside then-boyfriend Brad Pitt.
It shows her in a tub with a box around her head ... and her current boyfriend, Brad Falchuk, dressed as Kevin Spacey's character from the film. In case you're 22 years behind in seeing the flick, Spacey sends Brad Gwyneth's head in a box ... BTW, this is a spoiler.
An interesting backdrop here ... "Se7en" was made a few years before Harvey Weinstein allegedly put the moves on Gwyneth, and Brad confronted him about it.
Scary stuff all around ...

Kourtney Kardashian's PLT Launch Anyone Who's Anyone Got In, But Not 'ANTM' Don Benjamin!
Kourtney Kardashian's launch party for her collection at PrettyLittleThing was a who's who of Hollywood -- except for one of "America's Next Top Models" ... who had security saying "who?".
A flock of A-listers arrived to Poppy in WeHo Wednesday night to support Kourt's launch of her PrettyLittleThing collection, and there were lots of familiar faces -- Diddy, Wiz, Christina Milian ... you name it.
No one was down to chat a whole lot -- not even about George H.W. Bush's alleged groping -- except for Don Benjamin ... who says he got the boot from security at the entrance.
Don tells us he apparently wasn't famous enough to attend, even though he got invited. That's too bad ... looks like it was lit inside with Diddy taking the mic.

'Stranger Things' Star Spoilers for Season 2? Nope ... Bad Paps!
One of the kids on "Stranger Things" has been so well trained on not giving away spoilers for the new season ... he sounds like a dad telling his kids no dessert before dinner.
We got Gaten Matarazzo, who plays Dustin, and asked if he had just one little juicy tidbit he could share before Season 2 drops in a couple of days.
Besides him saying "It's gonna be good," Gaten hilariously insists on keeping a lid on things -- but he was happy to tell us about the new pressure on the whole cast, now that Season 1 "raised the bar" so high. He also opened up about his favorite stuff from the '80s ... and it's pretty funny.
Note to Gaten: That "thing" is called a cassette tape.

Triple H In-Ring Twerk Sesh ... The Rock & Steph Likey
How did pro wrestling legend Triple H celebrate his return to the ring?
TWERK! TWERK!! TWERK!!!
The WWE exec strapped on his boots for an event in Santiago, Chile ... and let loose some serious dance moves after his match -- waggin' his hips and shakin' his booty like his life depended on it.
Triple H twerking is all I needed from today pic.twitter.com/Jk3xqiYG0V
@ConnorJA_
But don't forget -- HHH is a HEEL ... so after boogieing down, he laid out The New Day's Kofi Kingston with his signature pedigree.
Triple H's wife, Stephanie McMahon, clearly didn't think he had it in him -- but The Rock could smelllllllll what The Game was cookin'!!

French President Macron's Dog Wee Wee!!!
President Emmanuel Macron's dog got a leg up on his owner Sunday ... when he pissed on a fireplace during an official meeting ... and the Prez lost it!
Listen as you watch the video ... you hear the pee stream loud and clear and Macron busts up.
He was meeting with the junior minister for ecology, and other junior members of his government.
Nemo's a black lab that was the first Presidential pet to come from a rescue shelter. We're guessing he gets a pass.
What a relief.

Courtney Love I'll Take a Pass On Weinstein 'I Told You So' Jokes
Courtney Love is taking the high road when it comes to gloating about Harvey Weinstein -- and best of all for her ... she's doing it with a couple of hot young dudes.
We got Courtney Wednesday night arriving at Delilah in WeHo with 2 "sexy men" -- her words -- and, as expected, she got a bunch of softball Weinstein questions. Seeing as how she fired a warning shot about Harvey way back in 2005 ... this could've been her chance to drop several I-told-you-so's on Hollywood.
You'll recall, Courtney says CAA banned her after calling out Weinstein -- and maybe that explains her response to all the questions about him.
Or maybe she's just busy enjoying her company.

Kevin Hart's Sex Tape Partner He's Cashing in On Scandal While I'm Still Getting Screwed!
Kevin Hart is turning his sex tape scandal into a big joke that will ultimately make him richer, but his partner on the tape isn't laughing ... TMZ has learned.
In the new promo for Kevin's upcoming "Irresponsible" comedy tour, he openly takes shots at himself for getting caught in bad situations -- such as the Las Vegas hotel room sex tape with Montia Sabbag.
The spot, which started airing this week, is a slap in Montia's face ... according to her attorney, Lisa Bloom. She says both she and Montia find Kevin using the scandal "very distasteful" because Montia's enduring social media hacks, death threats and slut-shaming.
Bloom says, "This stuff takes a toll mentally and physically, and now with this tour it's like this whole thing was a joke."
She adds Montia will continue working with cops tracking down the extortionists.

Post Malone How to Be a Rockstar ... Multiple Attempts Required
Post Malone quickly realized technique is everything if you wanna be a guitar-smashing rock star -- but he was still able to live up to his own song title. Eventually.
Post was doing a show Tuesday night in Fort Lauderdale, when he had Postmates deliver a sweet red guitar from a local Guitar Center. We're told it cost him about $1,000.
help @Postmates I wanna order 100 guitars to smash on tour but it's only letting me order 10!
@PostMalone
He originally asked for 100 guitars, with the idea of smashing 'em onstage while performing his new #1 hit with 21 Savage, "Rockstar." Fortunately, he stuck with just one ... 'cause it was a bitch to break.
For those about to rock, Post salutes you! Slowly.

Donnell Rawlings on Weinstein Most Women Were Fine with His Sexual Aggression
Harvey Weinstein actually had a good track record sexually harassing women, because most didn't complain ... so says Donnell Rawlings.
We got an inebriated Donnell Monday night outside the Peppermint Club in WeHo, and he spoke at his peril, saying 29 women complained but 1,000 didn't have a problem with him.
But wait, there's more. He also says Harvey's career in Hollywood is far from over ... but his reason is pretty anti-Semitic.
The good news? Donnell says he's down to collab ... on one condition. Let's just say no massages below the belt.

Artie Lange Hospitalized for High Blood Sugar ... Cancels Comedy Show
Artie Lange never made it to his show in Ohio this weekend -- but ya can't blame the guy ... he stayed grounded on doctor's orders.
Sources close to Artie tell TMZ ... he wasn't feeling well Saturday ahead of his comedy show in Akron, Ohio because of high sugar levels. We're told he suffers from this due to his diabetes.
Rather than risk further injury by taking a flight from his home in New Jersey to Ohio, we're told Artie followed his doctor's instructions to hit a hospital and skip the show. Sources say Artie had a bad reaction the last time he flew with high blood sugar, so it was a no-brainer.
Artie checked into a local ER in NJ and we're told he's feeling better now.
