You Might Want to Rethink

The L.A. Dodgers fan who had a firework explode in his hand during a viral World Series celebration-gone-wrong last week has lost two of his fingers, his dad announced this week.

Kevin King Sr. told Fox 11 Los Angeles his 25-year-old son, Kevin King Jr., is now without the pointer finger and the middle finger on his left hand ... and has already undergone two surgeries to repair the damage the firework caused.

Unfortunately, King Sr. said King Jr. will require a third procedure soon.

Martha Stewart's criticism of Ryan Reynolds' "very serious" off-camera persona should be taken with a grain of salt ... given the fact the actor's been quite vocal about his past anxiety hurdles.

A source close to Ryan tells TMZ ... the actor has made no secret about his anxious and racing mind ... which means sometimes he shuts down around people.

As our source puts it ... Blake Lively's husband likes being quiet over being "on" ALL the time.

New body cam footage from the Florida Gators-Georgia Bulldogs game on Saturday shows more fighting in the crowd between cops and a spectator — with the n-word being thrown around like punches.

Check it out ... it starts off with two cops — one Black and the other white — approaching a Caucasian man kicking back in a stadium chair with a woman standing behind him.

The officers tell the man he needs to move because he's sitting on private property — but the guy doesn't budge and threatens to "kill a cop."

A Broadway star is slamming Patti Lupone for saying the hit show "Hell's Kitchen" is "too loud" ... saying it's a total microaggression.

Here's the deal ... Kecia Lewis -- who plays Miss Liza Jane in the Alicia Keys-inspired jukebox musical and won her first Tony Award for it back in June -- took to Instagram Saturday and directed an open letter to Lupone about her comments regarding the show.

Patti has been filmed publicly saying the show -- with a primarily Black cast -- is far too loud for her liking ... a phrase Kecia says is "racially microaggressive."

2:40 PM PT -- TMZ has just obtained exclusive video ... showing Jason clearly saying "Who is the f***** now?" 3 times to the person who first hurled the slur at him -- this after Jason got shoved to the ground by the dude.

12:56 PM PT -- More video has emerged from the incident involving Jason Kelce ... with the new angle showing the person whose phone Kelce smashed demanding it back.

A scuffle ensues, broken up by people standing near Kelce ... before he appears to yell back at the man "Who is the f***** now?" -- seemingly referencing the comment that was screamed at him earlier.

Ryan Reynolds is known for his often-humorous roles in movies like "Deadpool & Wolverine," but he isn't so funny in real life, so says Martha Stewart.

Martha was a guest on the "Rent Free" game show produced by Bilt Rewards, and she got into a discussion with Bilt CEO Ankur Jain about which celebrities are the most fun to hang out with.

She first said her good bud Snoop Dogg would make the cut before moving on to Ryan, who would likely appear on the list because he gets into costume and covers his face in his films, many of which are comedic roles.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz appeared to call Elon Musk a "gay guy" on the campaign trail ... but the billionaire is brushing off the apparent gaffe.

Kamala Harris' running mate was giving a speech Friday in Detroit, Michigan when he started talking about Elon getting a big tax cut.

Walz appears to say ... "If you're a billionaire, Elon Musk for example, say. That guy, that gay guy got" before stopping himself and laughing ... playing it off by saying, "Michigan knows that word."

Not every celebrity goes all out for Halloween like Heidi Klum and Kim Kardashian ... a lot of them mail it in, and we've got the photos to prove it!!!

Patti Harrison went as Michael Jackson and his infant son Blanket ... Emma Roberts threw on a pink wig and a sequined jacket.

Diplo looked like he put in even less effort ... and his Halloween costume has lots of folks asking the dreaded, "And what are you supposed to be?" Frankly, we haven't the slightest clue.

Halloween usually brings out a controversial Halloween costume or two ... but, 2024 went a bit extra -- with a group in Pennsylvania catching a lot of heat for a costume featuring a tied-up Kamala Harris.

The costume came out during the Mount Pleasant Annual Halloween Parade ... and, showed a group of dudes on a golf cart impersonating Secret Service -- with one dressed up as Donald Trump.

A fake machine gun was mounted to the roof of the cart ... which all might've been fine -- except, behind the cart, a person outfitted like Kamala Harris had their hands tied by a rope connected to the cart and was slowly walking behind the vehicle.

An unidentified fan chose a poor time to heckle Dodgers star Freddie Freeman ... shouting "You Suck!" at the first baseman during a moment of silence at the World Series, honoring people afflicted with cancer.

The Dodgers slugger was honoring his mother ... whom he lost to cancer at the age of 10.

Major League Baseball carved time out of the broadcast to allow players, fans, umpires, and others to pay tribute to those either battling cancer, cancer survivors, or sadly the people lost to the horrible disease, teaming up with "Stand Up To Cancer" for the powerful moment.

Two New York Yankees fans with great seats to Tuesday night's World Series Game 4 were forced to watch almost the entirety of the action on a TV ... after they were ejected for trying to rip a ball from Mookie Betts' glove.

The bizarre scene unfolded in the first inning of the Pinstripes' matchup with the Dodgers at Yankee Stadium ... when Gleyber Torres hit a pop fly down the first-base line.

As the ball came crashing down, it landed in foul territory, though Betts was still able to snag it with his glove before it hit fans' hands. Yet right after he secured it in his webbing, two Yanks supporters attempted to wrestle it away from him.

7:50 AM PT -- Ryan Girdusky is doubling down on his controversial comment ... defending his "beeper" remark was nothing more than a joke.

He tells TMZ ... "You can stay on CNN if you falsely call every Republican a Nazi and have taken money from Qatar funded media. Apparently, you can't go on CNN if you make a joke. I'm glad America gets to see what CNN stands for."

Ryan also penned a lengthy essay in response to the controversy, sharing he warned the network he wouldn't apologize for being Republican.

While he confessed to having a "go big or go home" mentality heading into the roundtable, he said he genuinely thought Hasan said he supported Hamas, rather than Palestine.

The Chicago Bears lost in heartbreaking fashion against the Washington Commanders ... and one Bears player is owning up to his role in the end result -- apologizing for taunting fans in the middle of Jayden Daniels' game-winning Hail Mary.

Bears defensive back Tyrique Stevenson was in a celebratory mood after his team went up 15-12 with less than half a minute left in the contest ... but it was a bit premature, as the Commanders had one final shot to steal the victory.

Instead of concentrating on his coverage, Stevenson turned his back on the action ... and chose to send a message to the home crowd -- all while Daniels was scrambling for his life.

Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe is taking some heat after his appearance at Donald Trump's Madison Square Garden rally ... cracking a joke about Puerto Rico that's got some big names up in arms.

The controversial comic -- who is known for pushing the envelope in his sets -- took the stage in NYC Sunday before the former POTUS came out ... and, he made jokes skewering people of all races and creeds.

While many of his jokes drew positive or mixed reactions from the crowd, one did not seem to go over well in the building ... when Hinchcliffe joked there's a floating island of garbage in the ocean -- and, it's called Puerto Rico.

Michelle Obama says Donald Trump's not competent enough to be president ... blasting the former prez for the mistakes she feels he made in his first term -- saying he straight up tried to steal the job.

The former first lady of the United States spoke at Kamala Harris' rally in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Saturday afternoon ... and, she kicked off her remarks by taking aim at the Republican nominee for president.

A Kick streamer has officially gotten the boot from the platform after a video he posted seemed to show him dining and dashing ... and, leaving an alleged homeless woman to pick up the bill.

Here's the deal ... a streamer -- who goes by the name Dumbdumbjeez on the platform -- posted a video of sitting across from a woman named Mabel, who he says is homeless.

Dumbdumbjeez opens the bill, sees the $76 price tag and tells his dinner companion he needs to go get his wallet out of his car ... before walking out the front and taking off for a waiting car down the street.
