RHONY'S RAMONA SINGER DENIES Racism ALLEGATIONS ... Says She's Always Liked Eboni

Ramona Singer's insisting she is NOT racist, and says she has no ill will toward her former 'Real Housewives of New York' castmate Eboni K. Williams ... who says she nearly quit the show over Ramona's alleged behavior.

Sources close to Ramona tell TMZ ... she's upset she's embroiled in claims of bigotry and racism -- especially because the 'RHONY' production company investigated the allegations 2 years ago, and gave her the all-clear to continue working on various reality TV projects.

We're told she also believes the whole affair's been blown way out of proportion ... referring to this week's Vanity Fair report, which alleged Ramona used a racial slur in conversation with a Black crew member during season 13.

We should point out, multiple sources told us in 2021, Ramona was cleared following a third-party investigation because nothing was found to corroborate Eboni's claims.

Our sources are adamant Ramona never used a racial word during season 13 and she is not racist in any capacity.

The VF piece also featured an interview with Eboni, the show's first woman of color to become a full castmate in its 13-season run.

She claimed Singer had asked why "most" Black people didn't have fathers in their lives during a training call, ironically, centered on racial insensitivity.

Eboni claims Ramona said, "What if they don't have a father? Why can't I say that? Most of them don't." Mind you, she allegedly spoke those words to 2 racial justice representatives, a Bravo publicist and an NBCUniversal communications expert.

Despite the allegations, our sources say Ramona's insisting she always liked Eboni and wishes her nothing but the best.

She is also still friendly with Luann de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan and Dorinda Medley -- as well as all the other ladies featured on the show with her. However, due to fallout from the controversy, she hasn't seen them as often.

FIRING BACK

She's also been pulled from the upcoming BravoCon in Vegas, after digging a deeper hole for herself while talking to Page Six to refute the VF report allegations.

A source with direct knowledge says Ramona self-sabotaged herself, because her removal from BravoCon was only due to her Page Six remarks, NOT the past racism claims.

JUSTIN TRUDEAU Slammed FOR SON'S 'BEHEADED' COSTUME 'Tone Deaf' Amid Israel & Palestine Conflict

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has come under fire for his son's "insensitive" headless Halloween costume ... with followers pointing out how tone-deaf the PM is given the situation in the Middle East.

In snaps shared to Instagram Tuesday, the PM gleefully posed with his nine-year-old son Hadrien, whose head pops out of his black robe to give the illusion of him carrying his own severed head in his hands.

Justin joked about nothing stopping Hadrien from trick-or-treating, even though he "seems to have misplaced something," -- but users on the platform argue it's Justin whose forgotten something -- that a few weeks back, babies and others were beheaded.

Political commentator Tyler Popp labeled Justin's post as "tone-deaf," while Toronto-based Saba Khan, who runs the page @fictionallyflawless, said online that her "heart says this is the most tone deaf thing he can do at a time when children are getting their heads blown off in Palestine."

Others branded Justin's Halloween snaps as "disgusting, insensitive and disrespectful" as well as "mightily inappropriate" and "callousness is beyond belief."

Some folks weren't as disapproving ... criticizing those who turned Hadrien's Halloween costume into something political.

This isn't the first time Justin has come under fire for an insensitive costume. We all remember his apology tour in 2019 when snaps emerged of him sporting a darkened complexion in an Aladdin costume back in 2001.

Maybe he should sit Halloween out next year.

Madre y niños ¡¡Son atrapados llevándose todos los dulces!! Todo capturado en video

110123_candy_stealing_kal
Atraco de Halloween

Una madre codiciosa está siendo criticada en Internet por dejar completamente vacío un recipiente lleno de dulces de Halloween que estaba afuera de una casa en Texas... Un atraco que la mujer llevó a cabo con sus hijos, ¡en cuestión de segundos!

Los golosos fueron capturados en la cámara de seguridad del músico Cody Tate después de que pusiera una generosa ración de dulces para truco o trato, cosa que él pudiera instalarse en su casa sin ser molestado, mientras veía la Serie Mundial.

Sin embargo, una mujer no identificada prestó poca atención a su cartel que claramente instruía a la gente a tomar solo UNA porción de caramelos.

Ustedes pueden ver en el video que ella corre al recipiente junto a un grupo de niños y todos frenéticamente agarran dulces a puñados para meterlos en sus bolsas.

Aparentemente ajena a la cámara, la mujer que creemos puede ser la madre de los niños, se ve sonriente y se cerciora de que todas las bolsas estén llenas hasta el tope. Antes de irse con su equipo, echa un último vistazo al tazón y se va.

Cody, que toca la guitarra en la banda de rock Whiskey Myers, estaba bastante devastado y publicó el video y dijo "por eso no se puede confiar en la gente", y agregó que estaba particularmente sorprendido de ver a adultos comportarse de esa manera.

De todos modos, Cody está reclamando justicia y le pidió a sus seguidores que compartieran el video para tratar de identificar a los autores, quienes, según señaló, arruinaron Halloween para todos los otros niños que no tuvieron posibilidad de tomar sus dulces.

Por suerte, no fue una causa perdida para Cody, porque un vecino de buen corazón vio el atraco en tiempo real y se acercó a reponer el tazón.

Todos recuerden... compartir es cuidar.

MOM & KIDS Halloween Hogs CAUGHT on Cam!!! Scoop Up ALL the Candy

110123_candy_stealing_kal
HALLOWEEN HEIST

One greedy mom is getting blasted by the internet for emptying an entire bowl of Halloween candy left outside a Texas home ... a heist she pulled with her children in a matter of seconds!!!

The spooky season mercenaries were caught on musician Cody Tate's ring camera after he put out a generous helping of candy for trick-or-treaters ... so he could settle in at home, undisturbed, to watch the World Series.

However, an unidentified woman paid little attention to his sign clearly instructing people to take just ONE piece of candy.

You can see in the video she races to the bowl with a group of kids ... and they all frantically grab handfuls of sweet treats and shove them in their bags.

Seemingly oblivious to the camera, the smirking woman in a gray hoodie -- potentially the kids' mother -- ensures everyone's bags are full to the brim, takes one last look at the bowl and then leads her fleeing crew.

Cody, who plays guitar in the southern rock band Whiskey Myers, was pretty devastated and posted the vid and said "this is why you can't trust people" -- and added he was particularly shocked to see adults behaving like this.

He wants justice, though, and asked his followers to repost the video, and try to identify the perpetrators, who, he pointed out, ruined Halloween for all the other kids who hadn't come by yet for candy.

Luckily, it wasn't a lost cause as one of Cody's kind-hearted neighbors saw the candy grabbing caper in real time, and came over to restock the bowl with candy.

Remember, everyone ... sharing is caring.

KHLOE KARDASHIAN ¡BAJO FUEGO POR HACER BLACKFISHING OTRA VEZ!

Khloe Kardashian está siendo acusada de blackfishing... OTRA VEZ. Para aquellos que no lo sepan, el término "blackfishing" se utiliza para describir a las personas blancas que utilizan filtros, maquillaje o bronceado excesivo para hacerse pasar por negros, ya sea para conseguir un valor monetario o beneficio personal.

En varias publicaciones compartidas en su Instagram este martes de Halloween, la fundadora de Good American fue vista posando mientras jugaba a disfrazarse de muñeca Bratz.

Khloe llevaba un minivestido amarillo sobre una camisa blanca de manga larga, una boina amarilla a juego, una peluca rubia platino hasta la rodilla y un bolso de mano con el logo de Bratz incrustado.

Pero, para su desgracia, la atención de los usuarios no se fue a su atuendo, sino a su tono de piel, el que según muchos de sus horrorizados seguidores era "10 veces más oscuro".

"¿Cómo no es esto blackfishing?", echó humo una persona, mientras que otra afirmó que quería "ver cómo se vería negra". Otros remataron diciendo que ni siquiera la reconocían cuestionando: "¿Así que Khloe está haciendo blackface?".

Khloe no ha sido la única de sus hermanas acusada de blackfishing. Kylie Jenner también ha sido criticada a lo largo de los años, más recientemente cuando anunció su colección de muñecas Bratz en agosto.

Por ahora, Khloe no dejó que las acusaciones la afectaran y siguió compartiendo imágenes en su Instagram con sus compañeras Bratz, su hermana Kim y sus amigas Natalie Halcro y Olivia Pierson.

KHLOE KARDASHIAN UNDER FIRE FOR BLACKFISHING AGAIN! ...'You didn't have to be darker to be a Bratz doll'

Khloe Kardashian has found herself at the end of blackfishing accusations ... AGAIN.

In several posts shared to her Instagram for Halloween Tuesday, the Good American founder was seen posing away while playing dress up as a Bratz doll.

Accessorizing with a crystal-encrusted Bratz logo handbag, she wore a yellow minidress atop a long-sleeved white shirt, complete with a matching yellow beret over a knee-length platinum blonde wig.

But, unfortunately for Khloe, the attention was not on her outfit -- it was on her skin tone, which, according to many of her horrified followers, was "10 times darker."

"How is this not blackfishing?" one person fumed, while another claimed that she wanted to "see what she would look like black." Others chimed in they don't even recognize her questioning, "so khloe is doing blackface?"

For those who don't know, the term "blackfishing" is used to describe white people using filters, makeup, or excessive tan to masquerade as Black for monetary value and personal gain.

Khloe hasn't been the only one of her sisters accused of blackfishing ... Kylie Jenner has also come under fire over the years -- most recently when she announced her Bratz doll collection back in August.

As for now, Khloe didn't let the blackfishing accusations get to her as she continued to share images on her Insta with her fellow Bratz dolls ... sister Kim and friends Natalie Halcro and Olivia Pierson.

JUSTIN TRUDEAU CRITICADO POR EL DISFRAZ DE "DECAPITADO" DE SU HIJO Sordera en medio del conflicto entre Israel y Palestina

El primer ministro canadiense, Justin Trudeau, ha sido criticado por el "insensible" disfraz de Halloween de su hijo decapitado y sus seguidores han señalado que el primer ministro hace oídos sordos a la situación en Oriente Medio.

En las fotos compartidas en Instagram el martes, el Primer Ministro posó alegremente con su hijo Hadrien, de nueve años, cuya cabeza sale de su túnica negra para dar la ilusión de que lleva su propia cabeza cortada en sus manos.

Justin bromeó diciendo que nada impedía a Hadrien pedir caramelos, aunque "parece haber olvidado algo", pero los usuarios de la plataforma sostienen que es Justin quien ha olvidado algo: que hace unas semanas se decapitó a bebés y a otras personas.

El comentarista político Tyler Popp etiquetó el post de Justin como "sordo", mientras que Saba Khan, con sede en Toronto, que dirige la página @fictionallyflawless, dijo en línea que su "corazón dice que esto es lo más sordo que puede hacer en un momento en que los niños están recibiendo sus cabezas voladas en Palestina".

Otros tacharon las instantáneas de Halloween de Justin de "repugnantes, insensibles e irrespetuosas", así como de "tremendamente inapropiadas" e "insensibles más allá de lo creíble".

Algunas personas pusieron paños fríos, criticando a los que convirtieron el disfraz de Halloween de Hadrien en algo político.

Esta no es la primera vez que Justin recibe críticas por un disfraz insensible. Todos recordamos su gira de disculpas en 2019 cuando surgieron fotos de él luciendo una tez oscurecida disfrazado de Aladino en 2001.

Tal vez debería saltarse Halloween el próximo año.

French Montana Drug Search On My Plane in Colombia

C'MON, COLOMBIA
Instagram / @frenchmontana

French Montana's flying private, but his travel plans are still coming with headaches ... because he says authorities in Colombia searched his jet for narcotics.

The rapper says he was trying to fly out of the South American country Tuesday, but he was grounded at the airport while officers combed through his plane in search of cocaine.

French posted video of his encounter with law enforcement, and you see a handful of police officers going through the plane along with a drug-sniffing dog.

He's keeping a cool head about it, for the most part, even petting the K-9 in front of officers. He's also proclaiming his innocence ... saying la policia got the wrong idea about him.

Yes, he named his label (and mixtape series) Cokeboys, but French declares there's no contraband on his ride.

Despite the hard time from Colombian police, French says he's still got love for the country ... though he adds, "you don't have to do me like this!!!"

We're guessing he was eventually cleared for takeoff -- or he wouldn't have posted the video -- but his last IG story says, "I need bail!! 👀."

CRÍTICO GASTRONÓMICO DE TIKTOK Provoca cambios en restaurantes de Atlanta ¡Haremos ajustes!

La escena gastronómica de Atlanta ha estado bajo la lupa desde que un crítico de TikTok con cientos de seguidores llegó a la ciudad y empezó a hacer malas críticas de los restaurantes, y ahora, algunos de esos lugares están prometiendo cambios.

Keith Lee, que tiene un alcance masivo en TikTok y cuyas críticas de comida han hecho que pequeños negocios, usualmente desapercibidos, se conviertan en los favoritos de la gente, trajo su talento a la ciudad de Atlanta la semana pasada y tenía mucho que decir.

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

El crítico hizo una serie de comentarios en video y un buen puñado de ellos en realidad terminaron siendo retrospectivas de lo difícil que resultó pedir comida a domicilio en un montón de establecimientos conocidos y populares en la ciudad. Algunos de ellos incluyeron The Real Milk & Honey, y el restaurante Old Lady Gang, de Kandi Burruss, y según cuenta ambas experiencias lo dejaron sin comida.

Al parecer, hay un montón de "reglas" que Keith y su familia tuvieron que pasar para hacer un pedido e incluso para sentarse, algo que caracteriza a un mal servicio al cliente a su juicio, y desde que criticó a estos lugares un montón de personas ha concordado.

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

Como resultado de todas estas críticas y comentarios, parece haber un consenso de que es un poco difícil cenar en Atlanta, y por ninguna buena razón.

103123_kandi_burruss_kal
Esto es lo que pasó

Kandi abordó parte de la crítica de Keith, particularmente el hecho de que Keith y su equipo no pudieron pedir comida para domicilio fácilmente, y dijo que su restaurante pone el foco y los recursos en los que comen en él. Sin embargo, no se refirió a su afirmación de que solo se le ofreció una mesa debido a su nombre.

En cualquier caso, Kandi le abre las puertas nuevamente y espera que el equipo de Old Lady Gang pueda tener otra oportunidad. Los dueños de The Real Milk & Honey (que es un restaurante franquiciado) tomaron un enfoque ligeramente diferente, pero en última instancia salieron a aclarar un poco las cosas y a pedir disculpas también.

Después de que uno de sus dueños criticara a Keith en una estación de radio local, en un intento por defenderse de las prácticas estrictas de su restaurante, el negocio en sí emitió una larga declaración el martes, donde aparentemente admitió estar equivocada.

La cuenta corporativa dice que han hecho un examen de conciencia en el transcurso de la semana y ahora The Real Milk & Honey se compromete a ajustar la forma en que operan.

1031--Cardi-B-audio-3
¿No les interesa el dinero?

No dicen exactamente lo que cambiarán, pero parece que la crítica de Keith los hizo pensar dos veces.

Por cierto, toda esta discusión se tomó las redes sociales durante varios días y dejó a algunas grandes celebridades de peso comentando sobre los "problemas" que existen en la supuesta escena de comida en Atlanta, incluyendo a Cardi B, que en términos inequívocos se puso del lado de Keith y le dio las gracias por exponerlo.

Como muchos han señalado, el efecto Keith Lee es real, para bien o para mal. Tomen nota, amigos, el hombre critica la comida y el servicio al cliente, ¡y les hará saber si no le gusta!

TikTok Food Critic Keith Lee Spurs Responses from ATL Restaurateurs ... Changes Are Comin'!!!

Atlanta's food scene has been under the microscope since a viral food critic came to town with bad reviews -- and now, some of these places are promising change.

Keith Lee, who has a massive TikTok following and whose food reviews have turned small, unseen businesses into out-the-door favorites brought his talents to the ATL last week -- and had a lot to say.

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

He did a number of video reviews ... and a good handful of them actually ended up being retrospectives into how difficult it turned out to be to order takeout at a bunch of well-known/popular establishments in town. His stops included The Real Milk & Honey, and Kandi Burruss's Old Lady Gang restaurant -- both experiences, he says, left him without food.

Apparently, there are a ton of "rules" Keith says he and his family had to go through to even place an order or to be seated -- stemming from what he characterizes as bad customer service -- and since calling these places out ... a lot of folks have chimed in to agree.

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

In the aftermath of these reviews -- and amid all the discourse that's followed -- there seems to be a consensus ... it's kinda difficult to dine in Atlanta, and for no real good reason, either.

103123_kandi_burruss_kal
HERE'S WHAT HAPPENED...

Kandi addressed part of Keith's critique -- the fact he and his crew couldn't easily order takeout -- and said her restaurant puts the focus and resources on those who eat in. However, she didn't address his claim he was only offered a table because of his name.

In any case ... Kandi welcomes him back and hopes she and the OLG team can get another shot. The folks who own The Real Milk & Honey (which is a franchised restaurant) took a slightly different approach ... but ultimately landed with a bit of a clarification/apology too.

After one of the RMH honchos reportedly torched Keith on a local radio station -- in trying to defend his restaurant's stringent practices -- the restaurant itself issued a lengthy statement Tuesday ... seemingly admitting to being in the wrong.

The corporate account says they've done some soul-searching over the course of this week-long saga ... and now, The Real Milk & Honey is vowing to tweak how they operate.

1031--Cardi-B-audio-3
Y'ALL DON'T LIKE MONEY?!

They don't exactly say what's in store -- but it appears Keith's review made 'em think twice.

BTW, this whole chapter took over part of the Internet for a good several days ... and it got some big-time celebs weighing in on the supposed Atlanta food scene "problem" -- including Cardi B, who in no uncertain terms sided with Keith ... and thanked him for exposing it.

As many have noted ... the Keith Lee effect is real, for better or worse. Take note, folks -- he critiques food AND customer service ... and he'll let ya know if he's not feeling it!

Sacramento Kings Ex-Dancers Sue ... Your Choreographer's A Creep!!!

Two former Sacramento Kings dancers are suing the team ... alleging one of the org's choreographers was a total creep who prevented them from making this year's dance squad.

The two dancers -- ID'ed only as Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2 -- filed the lawsuit against the NBA franchise in a California court on Tuesday.

Doe 1 said in the suit she was hired by the Kings in 2022 ... and a short time later, she noticed a pattern of misconduct from team choreographer Matthew Day.

According to the woman, Day would inappropriately touch dancers as he worked with them, "causing emotional discomfort." She said she went to HR over it ... but she claims in the suit "no changes were made."

Doe 1 alleged Day's unprofessional behavior continued as he remained employed by the team ... claiming Day sent her various messages on Instagram, including some that contained "flirtatious comments and emojis." She said in the suit she never engaged "in any flirtatious behavior in response."

Doe 2, who was also hired by the Kings in 2022, listed similar allegations against Day in the suit.

Both Doe 1 and Doe 2 said when they attempted to rejoin the team for the 2023-24 season ... Day was on the judges panel, much to their surprise.

And, when the two were not picked for the team following auditions -- they said in the lawsuit they were sure it was retaliation for their complaints against Day.

Both are suing the Kings and Day for unspecified damages.

"This is an absolutely stunning case of management at the Sacramento Kings turning a blind eye to Day's lecherous and illegal behavior," said Ron Zambrano, the attorney for Doe 1 and Doe 2. "Day committed these creepy acts, and he is certainly responsible for his own conduct, but the team's inaction amounts to condoning such horrendous working conditions so both are equally liable for the plaintiffs' pain and suffering."

RUNNIN' WITH ROCKY

A$AP Rocky was more than willing to chat it up with TMZ Hip Hop during his daily workout, and although his workout is jogging at a swift pace ... he invited us to come along -- and, umm, we did our best!!! 😂

The superstar rapper ran our photog straight outta her shoes as he was jogging Monday afternoon in WeHo .... and belted out a hearty laugh when we asked him about Rihanna's desire to have a couple more kids.

Rocky and Rihanna just welcomed their 2nd child, Riot Rose, this past August and have their hands full ... juggling parenthood and their long-delayed projects!!!

Rocky tells us he's currently working on his next album, "Don't Be Dumb," in real-time and fans will be on the edge of their seats wondering if he'll respond to Drake's shots from his "For All the Dogs" album.

Champagne Papi referred to his sexy time with RiRi as "average," and made it clear he didn't envy Rocky's current situation.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

He didn't have much to add to that topic, but did recommend the perfect running shoes for our photog. Watch the clip ... we should definitely take the suggestion. 😉

"Don't Be Dumb" is still expected to drop this year, and we're having lunch on Rocky when it does!!!

A$AP Rocky estaba más que dispuesto a charlar con TMZ Hip Hop durante su entrenamiento diario, y aunque este consiste en trotar a paso rápido, nos invitó a acompañarlo y... mmm, ¡hicimos lo que pudimos! 😂

El rapero superestrella estaba trotando tranquilamente cuando lo encontramos y se echó a reír a carcajadas cuando le preguntamos sobre el deseo de Rihanna de tener un par de hijos más.

Rocky y Rihanna acaban de dar la bienvenida a su segundo hijo, Riot Rose, el pasado mes de agosto y están muy ocupados ¡haciendo malabares con la paternidad y sus proyectos largamente retrasados!

Rocky nos dice que actualmente está trabajando en su próximo álbum, "Don't Be Dumb", en tiempo real y los fans estarán en el borde de sus asientos preguntándose si va a responder a los disparos de Drake de su álbum "For All the Dogs".

Champagne Papi se refirió a su momento sexy con RiRi como "promedio", y dejó claro que no envidiaba la situación actual de Rocky.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

No tenía mucho que añadir a ese tema, pero sí recomendó las zapatillas de correr perfectas para nuestro fotógrafo. Mira el clip, definitivamente deberíamos tomar la sugerencia 😉.

Se espera que "Don't Be Dumb" salga a la venta este año, ¡y vamos a celebrar cuando lo haga!

KEVIN BRENNAN EX-GUIONISTA DE 'SNL' SE BURLA DE LA MUERTE DE PERRY .. HAHAHAHA

Kevin Brennan  —un ex escritor de "SNL" y comediante— se está refiriendo a la muerte de Matthew Perry con muy mal gusto. Esto podría explicar por qué no tiene más éxito en el mundo del espectáculo.

Kevin  —quien estuvo un período de dos años escribiendo para el famoso programa de sketches de comedia en el pasado y que alguna vez fue un cómico en ascenso— tomó Tuiter este fin de semana después de la noticia de la muerte de Perry y publicó un mensaje increíblemente insensible burlándose del difunto actor de "Friends".

Escribió: "SE AHOGÓ EN UNA TINA CALIENTE. HAHAHAHA"... mientras enlazaba a nuestra historia.

El tuit no fue visto por mucha gente —Brennan solo tiene alrededor de 5.900 seguidores más o menos— pero sin duda dejó un mal sabor en la boca de la gente que lo vio, con muchas personas furiosas en los comentarios y condenándolo por hacer una broma de tan mal gusto.

Aunque Kevin no es tan relevante como lo fue en los años 90 / principios de 2000, todavía tiene una famosa conexión con Hollywood a través de su hermano menor Neal Brennan, de quien está distanciado. Neal, por supuesto, es el cocreador y guionista de "Chappelle's Show".

Neal y Kevin se pelearon hace años y el hermano pequeño se forjó un sólido camino. Neal ha escrito para un montón de programas, e incluso tiene su propio especial de comedia en Netflix, mientras que Kevin presenta un podcast bastante oscuro y hace actuaciones aquí y allá.

Vale la pena repetir que Neal NO es cercano a Kevin y basándonos en las entrevistas que ha hecho últimamente, se puede decir que es un tema delicado. Podemos notar rápidamtene que sus personalidades son muy diferentes.

Por supuesto, los comentarios groseros de Kevin no son en absoluto un reflejo de Neal. Podemos notar que se ocupa de sus asuntos y se centra en su trabajo y que no ha hablado de Perry o "Friends" en lo absoluto públicamente.

Kevin parece que todavía se imagina a sí mismo en un stand-up, y se la pasa haciendo comentarios acerca de los comediantes con los que sin duda alguna vez se ceodeó. Sin embargo sus últimos comentarios están lejos de ser un asunto de risa. Neal no parece haber reaccionado al post de su hermano.

Hemos llegado a él para hacer comentarios; sin embargo, no hay respuesta

Kevin Brennan Ex-'SNL' Writer Mocks Perry Death ... 'HAHAHAHA'

Kevin Brennan -- a former 'SNL' writer and comedian -- is making light of Matthew Perry's passing in a real ugly way ... which may speak to why he isn't more successful in showbiz.

Kevin -- who had a 2-year stint writing for the famed sketch comedy show way back when, and who was once a rising comic -- took to Twitter this weekend after news of Perry's death broke ... and posted an incredibly insensitive message mocking the late 'Friends' actor.

He wrote, "DROWNED IN A HOT TUB. HAHAHAHA" ... this while linking back to our story.

The tweet wasn't viewed by very many people -- KB only has about 5,900 followers or so anyway -- but it certainly left a bad taste in the mouths of folks who did see it ... with many people calling him out in the comments and bashing him for making a joke out of it.

While Kevin isn't nearly as relevant as he was in the '90s/early 2000s ... he still has a famous connection to mainstream Hollywood through his younger brother Neal Brennan -- from whom he's estranged. Neal, of course, is the co-creator/writer of 'Chappelle's Show.'

Neal and Kevin had a falling out years ago -- and the younger sibling went on to forge a solid path for himself. Neal's written for tons of shows, and even has his own Netflix comedy special now ... whereas Kevin hosts a pretty obscure podcast, and does gigs here and there.

It bears repeating ... Neal is NOT close to Kevin -- and based on interviews NB has done of late, where he was asked about his relationship with Kevin ... you can tell it's a sensitive topic. Based on this reaction to Perry alone, you'll see their personalities are very different.

So, of course, Kevin's crude remarks here are in no way a reflection of Neal -- who, as far as we can tell, minds his business and focuses on his work ... and who doesn't seem to have talked about Perry or 'Friends,' for that matter, very much at all publicly.

Kevin appears to still fancy himself standup-adjacent -- regularly commenting on mainstream comedians that Neal undoubtedly rubs shoulders with ... although, what he pulled here is far from a laughing matter. Neal doesn't seem to have reacted to his brother's post.

We've reached out to him for comment, nonetheless ... so far, no word back.

Gorilla Glue Girl No Sticky Situation ... I Got Engaged!!!

The woman everyone called "Gorilla Glue Girl" -- after going viral for dangerously trading hairspray for the adhesive -- has big news, but it ain't another sticky fiasco ... she's engaged!

Tessica Brown tells TMZ ... she said "yes" to her boyfriend of over 2 years, Brymon Brocks. They first met at her dad's church and, clearly, hit it off.

We're told Brymon proposed to Tessica at her home in Violet, Louisiana on her birthday earlier this month ... and they're both extremely happy for the next chapter in their lives.

Who can forget Tessica's infamous moment in 2021 when she dropped jaws on TikTok ... saying her hair was rock solid for a month after using Gorilla Glue.
