White House

George Clooney is reportedly pissed at President Biden and his administration over their handling of the Israel-Hamas war – and he let them know it in a not-so-friendly phone call.

Last month, the Oscar-winning actor dialed up the White House and spoke to one of Biden's senior aides, Steve Ricchetti, complaining to him about the commander-in-chief criticizing the International Criminal Court (ICC) for seeking an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to the Washington Post.

The newspaper reported Clooney was really miffed because his wife – attorney Amal Clooney – played a role in the ICC's efforts to try to obtain the warrant.

Pro-Palestinian protesters had a hot take of their own on Kamala Harris, Ray J is taking tons of credit for the Kim K sex tape and Delonte West is in trouble ... and the TMZ crew has hot takes on all three.

Over on "TMZ Live" Harvey and Charles break down the off-air protest that interrupted Kamala's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's talk show.

50 Cent and Rep. Lauren Boebert hung out at the White House during the rapper's visit to Capitol Hill ... and there are some definite flirty vibes in the air, or so it seems.

Fiddy and the Colorado Republican cheesed for the cameras Wednesday in D.C. ... and as you can see, they're locked into a pretty snug embrace here and flashing some huge smiles to boot. So yeah, they're definitely cozy.

Boebert fired off the first flirty social media post ... telling 50, "I'd still love you if you flipped burgers at Burger King ... I used to do that myself! Thanks for the photo, great to meet you!"

Travis Kelce appears to be going stag to the Chiefs' White House party ... Kansas City just posted a vid of him getting on a bus to 1600 Penn Ave. -- with no Taylor Swift in sight.

Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and the rest of the 2023 Super Bowl champions are slated to be honored by Joe Biden at a title celebration later on Friday afternoon ... and many had wondered if the K.C. tight end's famous girlfriend would make the trip.

After all, she's on a break from her "Eras" tour shows -- albeit a very brief one -- and White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said all of the Swifties in the building were sure hoping to see her.

President Joe Biden has suffered yet another gaffe at a podium ... this time, he incorrectly ID'ed WNBA superstar Candace Parker as a "coach."

The flub happened as Biden was hosting Parker's Las Vegas Aces at the White House to celebrate their 2023 championship.

Speaking to a crowd that had assembled inside of a room at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Biden tried to praise Parker, who couldn't make the ceremony, but he misspoke.

Tom Selleck once jumped to Princess Diana's aid by taking her for a spin on a dance floor -- and he says he did it to spare her from petty gossip about John Travolta and her.

The actor tells this interesting story in his new memoir, 'You Never Know' ... explaining he was lightly cajoled into slow dancing with the late Princess of Wales in 1985 at a White House state dinner in order to ward off rumors she and Travolta were hooking up.

The way Selleck tells it, he was minding his own business -- hanging with Clint Eastwood in the East Room -- when Princess Di and the "Grease" actor decided to hit the dancefloor for a second time, and a woman rushed up to them speaking rapidly.

El Servicio Secreto está investigando un accidente mortal, en el que un carro chocó contra una barrera de la Casa Blanca, obligando a los agentes y a la policía de Washington a intervenir.

La acción se produjo a última hora la noche del sábado, sobre las 10:45, cuando un carro que circulaba a gran velocidad colisionó contra una de las verjas del perímetro exterior que rodea los terrenos de la Casa Blanca.

Los agentes de la policía metropolitana respondieron, al igual que los agentes del Servicio Secreto, rodeando el sedán plateado que se estrelló de frente contra la barrera de hormigón.

The Secret Service is investigating a fatal crash -- a car slamming into a White House barrier sent agents and D.C. police scrambling.

The action went down late Saturday night, around 10:45, as a speeding car collided with one of the outer perimeter gates surrounding the White House grounds.

Metropolitan PD officers responded, but Secret Service agents were also immediately on the scene, surrounding the silver sedan ... which smashed head-on into the concrete barrier.

Donald Trump's first criminal trial is getting underway, and on the first day of court proceedings -- he was reportedly dozing off ... now, a new nickname is among us.

The ex-Prez showed up in court Monday in NYC, where his hush-money case kicked off -- the first of his three criminal trials -- and where Donald had to sit through a day full of lawyers talking about the ins and outs of how this thing is gonna go.

Of course, they have to start with jury selection ... and as the attorneys were going back and forth, NYT reporter Maggie Haberman went on CNN to claim Trump appeared to be sleeping.

Everyone seems to be reacting to the O.J. Simpson death news -- and the White House was no exception ... but their response to his passing is raising eyebrows, at least to some.

Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre addressed O.J.'s passing Thursday during a press briefing -- but only when she was asked by a reporter ... at which point KJP directly acknowledged it by saying the administration was thinking of the family ... his brood, specifically.

She says, "Our thoughts are with his family during this difficult time. Obviously with his family and loved ones. And I say this, I know that they have asked for some privacy -- and so we're going to respect that."

Caitlyn Jenner is blasting President Biden over what she seems to think is a coordinated effort to conflate a Christian holiday with a day that also celebrates transgender people.

The reality star sounded off on Saturday -- a day before International Transgender Day of Visibility, which just so happens to fall on Easter this year -- and took aim at Joe specifically ... as it appears she believes he might've made one land on the other on purpose.

She writes, "I am absolutely disgusted that Joe Biden has declared the most Holy of Holy days - a self proclaimed devout Catholic - as Transgender Day of Visibility. The only thing you should be declaring on this day is ‘HE is Risen’."

The amenities on Air Force One are so damn good, journalists apparently can't keep their filthy paws off of them, and are even taking some home ... so says a new report.

According to Politico, an inventory was taken by the Air Force after a multi-day trip with the press out to the West Coast last month -- and several items were missing.

The outlet claims it was enough of a problem that the White House Travel Office was alerted ... prompting the WH Correspondents' Association prez to send an email reprimanding her peers. Among the items that were taken ... pillowcases, glasses, and gold-rimmed dinnerware.

Joe Biden took time out of his Sunday night to throw a jab at Donald Trump ... trolling the former president for receiving golf awards at his own course.

No. 45 got the honors at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida ... earning the titles of Club Champion and Senior Club Champion -- and afterward, he gloated about it on Truth Social.

In his post, Trump said he got the trophies over a talented field ... writing, "The qualifying and match play was amazing."

GloRilla never thought in a million yurrrs she'd be partying up at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue -- but that was the Memphis rapper's real life as she met President Biden face-to-face!!!

But, on the heels of that White House visit, Glo went on CNN to talk about whether it would impact her vote.

The "F.N.F." rapper told Laura Coates she was basically just at the White House for the vibes. When asked about possibly campaigning, she said ... "That ain't got nothing to do with me."

She punctuated her seriousness about not getting all political by singing along to Jill Scott's good mood anthem, "Golden."

Big Glo was amongst the handpicked Gen-Z influencers invited to kick it with Biden and VP Kamala Harris at a Women’s History Month event on Monday -- but her presence at the ballots on Election Day is still up in the air.

Biden's administration is feverishly trying to round up young voters ... their State of the Union watch party on March 7 had swarms of TikTokers and IG stars inside the WH, but TBD if those invites will translate to votes.

We spoke to finance guru Tiffany Aliche following the event, but she was still unsure if the glitzy galas would drive young voters to the polls.

NFL superstar quarterback first ... Vice President of The United States of America next?

If things go the way Robert F. Kennedy Jr. hopes, that could be how life turns out for Aaron Rodgers, because the presidential hopeful confirmed Tuesday the Jets' signal-caller is at the "top" of his running mate list.

According to the New York Times, RFK Jr. said he's been communicating with Rodgers for most of the last month, and they've talked about the role ... and Rodgers is said to be interested.

Of course, the two -- who share similar stances on vaccines and other issues -- have grown close recently, with Rodgers throwing his support behind the independent candidate publicly multiple times in the last few months.

It's unclear, however, just how Rodgers would do his New York Jets job if he were to join the ticket with Kennedy.

The election is in November ... when football is in full swing.

The NYT also reported Tuesday that former WWE star and actor Jesse "The Body" Ventura is a strong candidate to be on the ticket.

The 70-year-old -- who has reportedly also considered Andrew Yang, Rand Paul, and Tulsi Gabbard for the role -- is expected to name his official running mate within the next few weeks.

Whoever RFK Jr. ultimately chooses, he's got an uphill battle ahead, despite polling strongly for an Independent.

President Biden invited a bunch of Gen-Z influencers to the White House to watch his State of the Union address -- and one person in the mix has the inside scoop on how it went.

Tiffany Aliche -- an author and renowned financial expert -- came on "TMZ Live" Friday to break down what it was like Thursday evening at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. with all these young whipper-snappers and Tiktokers around ... 'cause there were a crap ton of them.

Aliche -- who's built a massive following on Instagram and TikTok educating people about money -- tells us that she was one of over 60 influencers who attended the highly publicized evening ... and that there was a mix of internet personalities in attendance.

So, no ... it wasn't just political influencers -- fashionistas were there, too, it seems.

The message was clear for those in attendance ... Biden and his staffers wanted to reach Gen Z -- with Tiffany recalling that POTUS praised the content creators as "critical" to his campaign since they have a massive reach. Out with the old, as they say!

On whether this influencer effort will sway young voters to vote for Biden this fall ... Tiffany isn't certain -- but she does think it helped with raising awareness.

As for the vetting process required ... Tiffany says she was surprised that she wasn't asked about her political preference before being invited. The only conditions ... respect the White House as a historical building and a military compound.

She didn't even have to post if she didn't want to -- which sat well with Tiffany.

Other influencers invited to the White House ahead of the State of the Union included strategist Keith Edwards, activist Aaron Parnas, and "The Real Friends of WeHo" star Joey Zauzig.
