Social Media

A comedian in Spain got cracked after making a sexual joke about another guy's baby boy, with Papa Bear showing up at one of his shows and letting his fists fly ... which is on video.

The brutal attack played out on camera Monday night in Madrid, where comic Jaime Caravaca was doing a stand-up act. In the middle of the show, however, Alberto Pugilato rushed the stage and confronted Jaime, squaring up and landing a punch.

Alberto -- who's been described as a "far-right activist" and is very active on social media -- accused Jaime of making a dirty joke about his 3-month-old on X ... and told stunned onlookers he was just a father defending his son.

X -- previously known as Twitter -- has tweaked its rules ... now, formally allowing NSFW content to be posted on the site, even though it's low-key always been on there.

People have been sharing explicit porn on Elon Musk's social media platform for a while now since there were no rules against it. But, over the weekend, the site officially announced X-rated content is now allowed -- but with a few caveats.

According to their updated Adult Content Policy, X states, "You may share consensually produced and distributed adult nudity or sexual behavior, provided it's properly labeled and not prominently displayed."

Some scumbag pretending to be NBA prospect James McCain has been scamming fans out of their hard-earned money on Snapchat ... and now, the REAL James McCain's team is working to get the account removed from the app.

TMZ Sports has learned -- someone completely unaffiliated with 20-year-old McCain has been reaching out to people on the platform recently ... and after weeks of talking and building up trust, the user will eventually offer gifted items from SKIMS and other companies at a discounted price.

We're told some users have fallen for it -- after all, Kim Kardashian's brand recently partnered with the NCAA for March Madness ... and McCain was all over the campaign.

SKIMS also has a relationship with the NBA ... McCain's next employer.

F1 star Esteban Ocon is addressing the backlash he's faced after wrecking into Alpine teammate Pierre Gasly on the first lap of the Monaco Grand Prix ... saying he's been on the receiving end of some nasty abuse and negativity online.

It was a tough weekend for the 27-year-old French driver -- he was forced to retire after making contact with Gasly ... going airborne and damaging his car in the process.

Ocon admitted it was his fault for trying to pass Gasly when an opening wasn't available ... but despite owning up to the mistake, there were rumblings he could get benched over it all.

Rhett McLaughlin just got a temporary restraining order against a man whom he claims has threatened seriously violent behavior ... including a terrorist attack on the scale of 9/11.

The comedian/YouTube personality filed the TRO request earlier this month, claiming a man named Josiah Galvin had made repeated threats against him ... with this alleged online correspondence dating back to May 6.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, Rhett alleges that Galvin threatened to commit a "911 attack" and blow up Rhett's offices -- which he allegedly identified by physical address. Rhett also claims this guy threatened to kill him specifically.

5/23 -- 3:20 PM PT -- Chaka Khan tells TMZ ... "In these troubling times, I'm reminded that the energies of violence and abuse can take many forms, affecting individuals and communities worldwide. As someone who has faced personal lessons, I believe in the power of meditation, prayer and inner peace to bring light and hope to our lives and the world around us."

"We can address most issues, prevent negativity, and cultivate compassion by seeking Self. Let us take responsibility for our actions, strive to be better, and support those who are hurting."

She concluded, "May we find strength in grace and wisdom as human beings, walking towards a more loving and just world."

No, Joe Burrow doesn't have a new mane that would make Simba jealous ... but a ton of NFL fans thought that was the case this week -- when an edited pic of the Cincinnati Bengals superstar spread like wildfire on social media.

The Photoshopped snap shows No. 9 sporting some luscious locks as he poses for the camera ... with many comparing the look to Anakin Skywalker in "Star Wars" or Sunshine from "Remember The Titans."

A quick search on Joey B's Instagram confirms the guy has maintained a short cut throughout the offseason ... but apparently, people just blindly wanted the fake image to be true, so they just ran with it.

Simone Biles is tired of hearing the trolls chirp about her husband ... telling Jonathan Owens' critics this weekend to "f*** off."

The gymnastics star took to Instagram to send the message to the haters on Sunday night ... after they had crawled out yet again following the NFL player's appearance at her competition on Saturday in Hartford, Connecticut.

You'll recall, the NFL safety has received heat from fans ever since he referred to himself as "the catch" in the couple's relationship while doing an interview on the "The Pivot" back in December ... and when he was shown on TV as "Simone Biles' Husband" at the event over the weekend, the negative comments cropped up again all over social media.

The new documentary about Ashley Madison's infamous cyberattack isn't warning people away from the service ... according to one exec, it's actually boosting membership, including famous folks!

We talked with Paul Keable -- the Chief Strategy Officer for Ashley Madison -- and he tells us memberships are up in recent days thanks to "Ashley Madison: Sex, Lies, and Scandal" going #1 on Netflix. Paul figures it's partly 'cause people forgot the site exists until they saw the doc.

Paul says celebs do still use the site despite the 2015 hack that leaked many prominent people's names as allegedly having accounts. He thinks this is because they're dealing with the same issues as normies, feeling trapped in monogamy and it gives them a chance to explore in a safe space.

If ya don't know, Ashley Madison launched as a dating site for married people, and still promotes itself with the tagline ... "Life is Short. Have an affair."

Dean McDermott's firing off at trolls shocked at Tori Spelling's acceptance of his new girlfriend ... this despite seemingly obvious tension between the exes.

The actor jumped into the replies of a post featuring his new girlfriend, Lily Calo, to defend himself and his estranged wife after several fans said they couldn't believe Tori liked the post ... essentially showing her support.

In response to one comment which seemed to really upset him, Dean wrote, "It’s because she is a highly evolved and compassionate loving person, which is a lot more [than] I can say for the trolls commenting on this post."

Britney Spears says she's healing all on her own after a trip to Mexico -- which she says included cursing out strangers -- but visuals of her battered foot seem to tell a drastically different story.

Late Friday, the pop star posted a disturbing video of her horribly swollen right foot ... there's no way to tell how current the clip is, but in her caption, she claims she fixed it all on her own. As Brit says, "I was stubborn and did it my way !!! I didn't listen to a motherf***ing soul !!"

That doesn't seem like the wisest plan, based on the dark bruising around her heel, on top of the swelling. Remember, this is the injury she sustained during her notorious meltdown at the Chateau Marmont earlier this month.

Public distancing from Diddy is in full swing in the hip hop community as artists watch the brutal footage of him assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura ... and some are calling for his head.

50 Cent didn't react with his usual jokes this time around, but tossed a sarcastic jab at Diddy's legal counsel for their inevitable defense of their client ... quipping the entire saga gave him "Maury vibes."

The G-Unit rapper previously announced he's putting together his own Diddy documentary ... so, he's not only watching this from his usual vantage point -- as social media troll supreme -- but also as a producer.

Jennifer Lopez liking romance advice online happened organically -- as the relationship coach behind the post has no connection to her, but her inbox is getting flooded regardless.

Lenna Marsak -- who threw up the IG post that J Lo liked Thursday, touching on unhealthy relationships -- tells TMZ ... she definitely doesn't know J Lo personally, noting that they don't even follow each other, but has a sense of how her upload made its way to Jen's feed.

Lenna says the post in question had already been doing well -- in terms of performance and shares -- so it's possible Jenn just stumbled across it on her explore page on IG and liked it.

Harrison Butker got disowned by Kansas City following his controversial commencement speech -- at least briefly on social media -- with the city's official X account dissing the Chiefs kicker amid the backlash ... before later issuing an apology.

The @KansasCity page -- which dons the gray badge for government-verified handles -- shaded the hell outta the three-time Super Bowl champion on Wednesday ... saying, "Just a reminder that Harrison Butker lives in the City of Lee's Summit."

FYI -- Lee's Summit is about half an hour outside of Kansas City, and a solid 20 from Arrowhead Stadium. Essentially, the account was saying "dude's not one of us!!!"

Noah Cyrus is continuing to shout out her mom, Tish ... and it seems any inkling of love triangle drama is almost all but faded, and the newfound love is going both ways.

Noah hit up her IG Stories Monday to wish her mom a happy birthday by sharing a throwback pic of her with Tish on a past birthday -- this coming hot on the heels of another throwback pic the day earlier ... where she was honoring Tish for Mother's Day.

The Sunday snap of Tish cradling her as a baby was pretty telling in and of itself -- and now, it feels like mother and daughter are in a better place ... 'cause Tish has reciprocated.

Dating apps aren't exactly the best for finding love among normies -- and celebs aren't having much luck on them either -- including Zayn Malik ... who tried (and failed) using Tinder.

The One Direction heartthrob dished about his attempt to find love on the dating app after moving to a farm in Bucks County, PA ... which ended up with his hopes crushed when locals swiping through the small town couldn't believe he was the real deal.

Zayn told Nylon, "Everyone accused me of catfishing. They're like, 'What are you using Zayn Malik's pictures for?' I've been kicked off once or twice."
