Camryn Bynum is hoping his latest viral interception celebration scores him even more TV time ... telling TMZ Sports he would love to parlay his newfound internet fame into an appearance on "The Masked Singer."

The Vikings star set social media ablaze yet again on Sunday ... when he and Josh Metellus recreated the dance-off scene from "White Chicks" after his teammate picked off a Kirk Cousins pass in Minnesota's 42-21 win over Atlanta.

The two hit all of the Shawn and Marlon Wayans moves so perfectly -- even Marlon himself shouted them out on Instagram.

Juan Soto joining the Mets marked a major shift in the New York baseball landscape ... at least that's what Dwight Gooden thinks, 'cause he tells TMZ Sports his former team can no longer be considered the Yankees' "little brother!!"

We caught up with the Gooden -- who spent time with both clubs during his career -- after Soto inked a 15-year $765 million deal with the Metropolitans ... and he says the narrative about the team in Queens is about to be a thing of the past.

"The first time I heard it, Reggie Jackson said it," Gooden said. "I have nothing against the Yankees, but I was somewhat offended by it. I understood what he meant by that, saying that the Mets are little brother, but now things are starting to change."

Kate Upton had her fans concerned last month after posting a worrisome scenario to her Instagram ... but the SI Swimsuit legend is now clarifying the details of the note, saying it had nothing to do with her husband, MLB star Justin Verlander.

As we previously reported, Upton asked her followers about a situation involving a 10-year-old girl traveling with her intoxicated dad ... the father threatens a taxi driver with a gun "if he does not drop them off on the highway at midnight to walk home."

Upton then speculated whether the described scene was an emergency or crime and how "lawyers/judges/advocates/law enforcement/parents" would feel about the matter... but did not explain what exactly was going on until Monday.

The Ohio State athletic department just announced a member of its men's soccer team was a victim in an off-campus shooting on Saturday ... revealing the student-athlete is currently surrounded by family members after receiving medical treatment.

The school said redshirt junior Nathan Demian was shot following the team's match against Wake Forest ... but made it clear he is not a suspect in the criminal investigation, nor was he involved in any sort of altercation prior to the incident.

"The soccer program is thankful for the incredible university support and medical care available to Nathan and his family during this difficult time," the athletic department said in a statement.

Juan Soto is a Met ... and actor/diehard New York fan Nick Turturro is summarizing how Yankee supporters are handling the news -- going absolutely nuts on the MLB superstar in a passionate video reaction.

Turturro posted the nearly minute-long clip to his X account Sunday night ... saying he had two words for Soto after his record-breaking $765 million deal was reported -- "F*** you!!!"

"I'm taking it personal," he said. "We gave you our love. We f***ing gave you our heart and soul. It wasn't enough! You turned your cap around after the World Series, I saw that f***ing move."

Jack Del Rio had a miserable night in handcuffs following his OWI arrest last month ... TMZ Sports has obtained police video showing he begged an officer to let him "take a leak" -- before he repeatedly screamed and moaned in pain while in the back of a squad car.

The scene all unfolded in Madison, Wisc. back on Nov. 8, after Del Rio had allegedly rammed his vehicle through a person's fence ... and then attempted to flee the area on foot.

Cops say they were able to catch up to the former NFL head coach on a street near the crash site -- and in a police report, officers wrote he reeked of booze.

Anthony Edwards' potty mouth just cost him some dough -- the NBA just fined the Minnesota Timberwolves star $25K for using "profane language" during a postgame interview.

Joe Dumars, the NBA's Executive Vice President and Head of Basketball Operations, announced the punishment on Monday ... three days after AE dropped the f-bomb while analyzing the Wolves' 107-90 win over the Golden State Warriors.

Even though the words were complimentary of his teammates, Dumars said the two-time All-Star's comments wouldn't fly ... resulting in the hefty fine.

Bill Belichick just confirmed on "The Pat McAfee Show" that he does indeed have interest in the UNC job ... and he did speak further about the role with Tar Heels officials earlier this week.

Seems Bill Belichick's girlfriend wouldn't mind seeing him in Carolina blue ... 'cause Jordon Hudson's social media activity on Monday indicated she's a fan of him accepting the vacant UNC head coaching job.

Hudson wrote in a comment on her Instagram page to a Tar Heel supporter that sure appeared to be a stamp of approval on Bill potentially going to Chapel Hill in 2025.

The UNC backer wrote to Jordon, "Tell Bill to come to UNC!!" ... and she responded by saying, "I'll pass the message along..."

It's not even playoff time yet, but the Vikings have already taken the crown for best celebrations ... with Cam Bynum, along with teammate Josh Metellus, knockin' it out of the park with another epic choreographed dance -- this time from the White Chicks movie!

The hilarious moment went down on Sunday during the Vikings vs. Falcons game at U.S. Bank Stadium ... moments after Metellus picked off Kirk Cousins in the second quarter.

The Vikings' defense ran to the end zone after the interception to celebrate, and that's when the two safeties came together to perform the dance-off scene from the 2004 movie.

If you haven't seen the movie (it's hilarious), two FBI agents, played by Marlon and Shawn Wayans, go undercover as white girls ... and at one point, get into a dance battle against the Vandergeld Sisters, the movie's antagonists, at a nightclub.

How does one celebrate becoming the richest player in baseball?? For Juan Soto, he soaked in the milestone by getting a beer shower!!

Soto's younger brother and member of the Nationals organization, Elian, showed off the $765 million party on his Instagram story ... with the new New York Met chilling in a hot tub as booze was poured all over his head.

While the star hitter is excited about his new $50 million annual salary, Mets fans are just as pumped for him to switch boroughs -- shortly after the news broke, Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell posted himself on a FaceTime call with Soto -- with both giving wide grins.

Shohei Ohtani didn't seem fazed about losing his title of highest-paid player in baseball on Sunday ... 'cause he was busy enjoying the Los Angeles Lakers game with his stunning wife!!

The Dodgers superstar and Mamiko Tanaka left their adorable pup, Decoy, at home for a date night at Crypto.com Arena ... and with LeBron James out for the contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Shohei provided plenty of star power.

The 30-year-old and his former hooper bae had great seats for the Purple and Gold's 107-98 victory ... and at one point in the night, they were shown on the scoreboard to a massive ovation.

The commonly used phrase "all good things come to an end" applies not only to us mere mortals, but also to Taylor Swift!

After almost 2 years, 149 shows spanning 5 continents and record-smashing ticket sales, the pop superstar has finally come to the end of her "Eras" tour. Turns out, it was the most profitable concert tour ever -- grossing $2 billion -- and was virtually sold out from start to finish with her "Swifties" relishing every moment of it.

On Sunday, Taylor performed her last gig at BC Place Stadium, Vancouver, Canada, where she dazzled the packed crowd with her typical 46-song set over 3.5 hours.

Bill Romanowski tells TMZ Sports despite the repeated head trauma he suffered during his NFL career, he's still feeling great ... although he admits he has to work at it daily.

The legendary tough guy played linebacker for four different teams in the league from 1988 to 2003 ... and he revealed to us this week he ended up with "20 documented concussions" in that timeframe.

But, he said as of now, he's showing no signs of ill effects from the brain blows -- although he did relent he's working like a dog daily to make sure things stay that way.

Sports Illustrated model and actress Brooklyn Decker was in her mid 20's when she was cast to play Palmer -- the hot 6th grade math teacher with divorced parents -- in the rom-com film "Just Go With It" back in 2011.

Decker was part of an ensemble cast including Adam Sandler as the comedic and self-involved plastic surgeon interested in dating Palmer, Dr. Danny Maccabee, Jennifer Aniston as Dr. Danny's assistant and friend posing to be his pending ex-wife, Katherine Murphy, and Nicole Kidman as Katherine's sorority sister and competition who's totally into herself, Devlin.

OnlyFans model Ava Louise is living for the perks of her job ... scoring free tickets to an NFL game on the guarantee she'd flash a rival team.

Check it out ... the Internet personality took to Instagram Sunday and documented her journey to MetLife Stadium, where she cheered on the New York Giants as they faced off against the New Orleans Saints.

Ava said she was there with a purpose, however ... sharing an OnlyFans exchange between herself and alleged member of the Giants' roster.

Newly released body cam footage from New Jersey state police captures the moment the driver, accused of killing Johnny Gaudreau and his brother while driving drunk, struggles through a field sobriety test right before being taken into custody.

Check out the clip -- Sean Higgins, puffing on a cigarette, tells officers he was "freaked out" as they questioned him about the crash, claiming he’d had beers but the last one was two hours ago.

Cops ran some tests to see if he was intoxicated, and after eventually being slapped in handcuffs, Sean is heard asking, "Is everybody okay back there? I mean, what happened?" A trooper responds, "We’ll talk about that when we get to the station."
