Shannon Sharpe Breaks Out Goat Head, Biceps ... For LeBron James
Shannon Sharpe wanted to rub Skip Bayless' nose in LeBron James' greatness Monday morning -- so, he put on the goat head, ditched his sleeves ... and even busted out a Black & Mild!
... and it was HILARIOUS (and weird).
Sharpe LOVES Bron -- Skip's a lifelong doubter -- so ... after James brought the Cavs back to life with a dominating 30-point win on Saturday, the ex-NFL star was hyped about it on FS1's 'Undisputed.'
By the way, 49-year-old Shannon is insanely jacked -- dude looks like he could still play a couple of downs!

Antoine Griezmann Busts Out Fortnite Celebration After Europa League Goal
The Fortnite craze continues to infiltrate pro sports ... this time, it's Atletico Madrid star Antoine Griezmann busting out the "Take The L" dance after scoring a goal in the Europa League final.
Griezmann's goal gave Madrid a 1-0 lead over Olympique de Marseille in the first half ... and he was pretty fired up about it.
The 27-year-old is a pretty huge gamer -- he's always posting Fortnite videos on Instagram and has actually used the celebratory dance move in a game before ... but not in a game this big.
Just last week, boxer Teofimo Lopez used the same Fortnite dance to celebrate after knocking out his opponent ... and added a backflip for good measure.
😲 KO + Fortnite Dance + Backflip. The disrespect...
@MichaelBensonn
🚂 All aboard the Teofimo Lopez hype train! #LinaresLoma pic.twitter.com/xOly5I4TmT
With the NFL season right around the corner, ya gotta think EVERYONE'S gonna use the move when they get to the endzone.

Danielle Bregoli I Matched a LeAnn Rimes Record ... Now, Who the Hell is She??
Danielle Bregoli is celebrating a huge achievement in the music biz by dropping an inadvertent, but freakin' hilarious, diss on the last person to do it ... LeAnn Rimes.
We got Bhad Bhabie Tuesday in Chicago -- the latest stop on her tour -- and the photog asked how it felt to be the youngest female artist since '97 to score 3 Billboard Hot 100 hits. Her single, "Gucci Flip Flops," just peaked at #80 this week.
She was stoked, and wanted to know who else did it. The photog told her it was LeAnn, and you have to see Bhabie's reaction. Gotta hand it to her, it's hysterical ... IF you're not LeAnn Rimes.
As for her future in music -- Danielle says she's gonna, "Do what I do."
We'd expect nothing less. BTW, if you ARE LeAnn ... shout out to your glory days.

Martha Stewart Oprah Smokes Weed? Whaaaaaaaa?!?!
Martha Stewart literally stopped in her tracks when our photog told her Oprah smokes weed ... and hilarity ensued.
We got Martha leaving ABC Studios in NYC on Tuesday and wanted to know what she'd recommend to O, now that Gayle King revealed earlier this week Oprah dabbles in a little Mary Jane every now and then.
Martha's genuinely shocked but then plays it coy when our guy asks her about her own recreational use with her boy, Snoop. Sounds like the start of a great joke -- Martha Stewart, Oprah and Snoop walk into a weed shop ...

Vanilla Ice Rap Battle with TMZ Photog
Vanilla Ice was game to spit lines with our photog ... and, although we're not really in the matchmaking biz, a bromance was born!!
We got the rapper out at LAX on Sunday and our guy didn't waste any time ... reminding Ice they rapped the first verse to his 1990 track, "Hooked," last time around. With a second run-in, our guy gave the second verse a shot, and Vanilla didn't skip a beat.
Even more hilarious? Our poor guy spilled his heart out to Ice ... telling him he never officially got to be part of Ice's so-called posse. Watch ... Vanilla makes things right.

Lil Tay I Got Mama Jokes for Ugly Ass TMZ Even Though Mine Had to Quit Her Job
Lil Tay's talking serious smack about mamas -- especially the one who birthed our camera guy -- but her own mother suddenly has employment issues ... due to Tay's antics.
The foul-mouthed 9-year-old rapper strolled into Mastro's Steakhouse in Bev Hills Thursday evening -- with her pal Swaggy the husky -- and when we dared to ask a question about Danielle Bregoli ... she went off.
Sure, bringing up her archenemy probably wasn't the smartest tactic, but damn!
Meanwhile, Tay's outrageous social media video clips might have cost her mother a sweet job with a real estate agency.
Turns out the Mercedes in this vid belongs to her mother's boss, who was pretty pissed it was a prop for the trash-talking kid. Mama Tay reportedly saw the writing on the wall, and quit before she could be fired.
This rap thing better work out ... Tay's bringing home the bacon now!

Hugh Jackman to Ryan Reynolds Wolverine in 'Deadpool 2?' That Ship's Sailed!!
Hugh Jackman said it with a sexy grin but it still hurt like hell -- Wolverine will NOT appear in "Deadpool 2." A thousand apologies, Ryan Reynolds.
We got Logan himself in NYC on Thursday and pressed him about Ryan -- who plays Wade Wilson's alter ego, Deadpool -- still desperately trying to get him to hop on the Marvel flick crossover. Ryan said as much last week ... even though "Deadpool 2" is being released next Friday.
Hugh was asked about it on 'GMA' Thursday morning and straight-up said Ryan's coming off a little too thirsty ... saying, "Ryan ... back it up a little. Play a little hard to get. It's too much. It's not sexy."
But just hours later ... Hugh hammered the final nail in the coffin on the whole idea. Watch.

Michael Blackson Schumer Knows Better ... Don't Crash a Set and 'Lose Some Weight!'
Amy Schumer broke a huge rule on the comedy club circuit by crashing an up-and-coming comedian's stand-up set, according to fellow comic Michael Blackson.
We got Blackson at LAX Thursday afternoon where he told us what Amy did this week at Carolines in NYC was just plain rude. If ya missed it, she interrupted Brendan Sagalow Tuesday night, right in the middle of his set to practice her monologue for 'SNL.' She's hosting this week.
Sagalow has said he's cool with how it went down, but other comedians are taking Amy to task. Michael says it's not that an A-lister like Amy doesn't get preferential treatment -- it's just that there's a way to do it, and Michael says Amy should know that.
He had some harsh advice for her, for which we suspect HE's gonna catch some flak.

Jeremy Roenick Slams Brad Marchand Over 'Disgusting' Face Licks
Jeremy Roenick says he's sick and tired of Brad Marchand's face-licking antics on the ice ... and says the guy needs to save his tongue for the bedroom.
Marchand went on a mouthy tear during the NHL playoffs -- licking opponents faces at close range to try and piss them off. Shocker, it worked.
"It was disgusting," Roenick tells TMZ Sports.
"I love Brad Marchand. Love the way he plays, but he's a superstar. Superstars don't need to lick other people's faces."
Roenick says he's no stranger to the oral attack on the ice -- noting that Matthew Barnaby once kissed him during a game to try and get in his head.
Turns out, they actually became close friends afterward!
As for Marchand, Roenick says at the very least the NHL should fine him -- and maybe consider creating a new rule, so other players don't try and copy his schtick.

Tiffany Haddish Madonna's Unofficial Hype Man ... At Met Gala
The crowd at the Met Gala was silent as Madonna dramatically laid on the floor during her highly anticipated performance ... building up suspense before singing "Hallelujah."
... and that's when Tiffany Haddish chimed in!
The actress -- feeling the moment -- shouted at the stage (in a good way) trying to hype Madge up before the second part of her show.
Madonna had come out singing "Like a Prayer" -- but slowed things down before "Hallelujah" ... performing an artsy dance routine while surrounded by a bunch of people dressed like monks.
Don't worry, Haddish didn't break Madge's concentration -- in fact, she absolutely slayed the Leonard Cohen classic.

Katy Perry Nearly Missed Met Gala After Old, Classic Car Stalled ...
Katy Perry almost didn't make it to the Met Gala this year, all because her ride started acting like an old hunk of junk ... but she had a prayer somewhere there in the engine.
Katy was literally en route (parade style, it seems) to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC ahead of the Gala Monday, when all of the sudden her 1930s-style whip wouldn't start about a block away from the venue. Eyewitnesses say it was working just fine moments earlier.
In the video -- obtained by TMZ -- you see the panic set in as her driver tries a couple times to get it turned on, to no avail at first. Luckily for her ... the third (fourth? fifth?) time proved to be a charm. She got a big cheer from the crowd around her ... and someone even called her "such a babe" and "so hot" in her fallen angel outfit.
It's a good thing Katy got there, too -- she ended up being one of the many talked about fashionistas of the night. Must've had someone looking out from above ... it was kinda hard to miss her.

Ken Jeong Helps Woman Who Suffered Seizure ... During His Stand-Up Set
Ken Jeong often plays a doctor on TV, but his real-life medical training helped out tremendously when a woman suffered a seizure during his live show ... TMZ has learned.
Ken was doing a comedy set at Stand Up Live Saturday night in Phoenix, where a lady began seizing in the third row toward the beginning of the show. Eyewitnesses tell us Ken appeared to think it was a heckler, but the audience quickly made it clear she needed help.
As soon as he realized what was happening, we're told Ken hopped off the stage and rushed to the woman's aid. Sources say he cleared the area and attended to her while paramedics arrived. An audience member who was also an EMT assisted as well. Oh, and in case you didn't know ... Ken actually obtained his M.D. back in the '90s. So, he's legit.
Ken stayed with the woman until an ambulance arrived -- we're told at some point she regained consciousness while under his care and was brought back to her feet. She was eventually taken to a hospital, and Ken resumed the show. We're told he quickly addressed the situation, saying he was happy to be able to help ... and got a round of applause.
Paging "Dr. Ken" never sounded more serious.

Kevin Hart Left Alleged Extortionist/ Friend on the Curb ... All in Good Fun
Kevin Hart once had a fun guys' night out on the town with J.T. "Action" Jackson -- the guy charged with extorting Kevin in the sex tape case -- and a TMZ photog captured the whole hilarious scene.
J.T. and Kevin were leaving dinner at Philippe Chow back in June 2010 ... and while Kev was anxious to get in his Range Rover and go home, J.T. wanted to clown around and show off his pro bowling card to our camera guy.
Kev eventually got fed up with waiting and bolted. You've gotta see how J.T. reacted. We'll say this -- dude was quick on his feet as he chased down Kevin's SUV.
It was hysterical then, and it shows just how close they were. As we told you, J.T. was charged with attempted extortion and extortion by threatening letter ... both felonies. Prosecutors believe he threatened to release the sex tape shot of Kevin and a woman in a Vegas hotel room.
We're guessing Kevin's wishing he'd ditched JT for real that night, IF he's guilty.

Wayne Brady says the guy who got slammed into the friend-zone on "Let's Make A Deal" only has himself to blame ... 'cause he should've nailed down his relationship status before the show.
We got Wayne outside K Bakery in Pacific Palisades Wednesday, and he swore the brutal-to-watch diss -- which has gone viral -- was painfully real. If ya missed it ... contestants Steve and Jessie dressed in matching '70s prom outfits, prompting Wayne to ask how long they'd been together.
It all went downhill from there.
Wayne says he feels bad for Steve, but it's clear the guy missed some important social cues.
Steve and Jessie ultimately won a trip to Mexico on the show. As far as he knows, the trip's still a go ... but Wayne says it's not clear if it's gonna be booked for one or two.

Danielle Bregoli & David Spade Take Hilarious Jabs at Each Other For New Music Video!!!
Danielle Bregoli called David Spade an "ugly ass" to his face and David fired right back at her ... all part of her new music video for her hit song, "Gucci Flip Flops."
Danielle -- aka Bhad Bhabie -- just dropped the vid featuring Lil Yachty, and Spade as the milk man. Danielle's taken shots at Iggy Azalea in one of her tracks, and went surgical on a faux Kylie Jenner for her "These Heaux" vid ... but this is the first time she's scored a big-time celeb to cameo with her.
Spade and Bhabie have some history. If you forgot, back in May 2017, David posed with Danielle for a pic and posted this caption on IG:

Danielle clapped back saying she thought David was the waiter. That was actually pretty hilarious.
Anyway, it's all water under the bridge. We're told Danielle kept in touch with David via social media and reached out to him for the role in her music video.
Good thing she did ... they're both pretty funny here.
