President Donald Trump just introduced the U.S. men's hockey team as his special guests at the State of the Union address on Tuesday -- showing the gold medal winners grinning from ear-to-ear.

They were honored for about five minutes full of applause, cheers and U-S-A chants that rang throughout the Capitol building. Trump congratulated them -- and noted it was the first time he saw Democrats rise from their seats.

"Here with us tonight is a group of winners who just made the entire nation proud," he said as the team entered the House chamber.

Trump also congratulated the U.S. women’s team for its gold medal … saying they “soon will be coming to the White House.”

Eminem's ex-wife, Kim Scott, was arrested for DUI in Michigan last week ... and now we have bodycam footage of her bizarre interaction with the cops.

Watch the video ... in the first one, Kim looks totally out of it as she's given a preliminary breath test. She clearly didn't pass the test, because cops immediately started putting handcuffs on her.

Kim doesn't put up a fight ... just asks to let her family know what's going on, which the cops oblige to.

When officers arrived, they found Kevaughn Goldson with a stab wound to his chest and back. He was airlifted to University Hospital, but sadly succumbed to his injuries.

The FCC received a ton of complaints after Jimmy Kimmel made a controversial comment regarding Charlie Kirk ... but a vast majority of them weren't knocking Jimmy.

We've received the complaints sent to the federal agency back in September 2025 through a Freedom of Information Act request to see how many people bashed Kimmel to the government ... and we actually found that a lot more were fans of the star writing in -- alleging censorship by the feds.

Many people argued the government was infringing on the First Amendment by forcing Kimmel off the air ... and they called out FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr for his comments about the talk show host.

3:00 PM PT -- Benny Blanco's dirty bare feet have made it onto wikiFeet -- which is a website where all feet lovers can gather and rate feet ... Benny has an overall score of 3/5.

Benny Blanco's not exactly putting his best foot forward for his wife Selena Gomez ... and we mean that literally.

The record producer was on his "Friends Keep Secrets" podcast Tuesday ... and while the vibes were chill, his feet were doing the absolute most. At one point, he kicked back, threw those bare dogs up on the couch and ... let’s just say the soles told a very dusty story.

Completely oblivious, Benny was rubbing his feet together for peak coziness … meanwhile, fans were spiraling, clutching their pearls and reaching for disinfectant through the screen.

A neighbor says "American Idol" alum Caleb Flynn was the model citizen and ideal father ... before the singer allegedly shot his wife in the head.

As we reported ... court documents show Caleb was charged with murdering his wife Ashley in their Tipp City, Ohio, home while their two daughters slept in another room. But one neighbor tells us no one in the town would've seen this coming.

The neighbor calls Tipp City a Mayberry-like suburb where everybody knows everyone else. And in a city that represented wholesome 1950's-era Americana -- Caleb and Ashley were the perfect embodiment of the town's squeaky-clean image.

A TON of American fans set their alarms to catch the Red, White and Blue's gold medal win ... with NBC announcing the 2026 Winter Olympics finale averaged 20.7 million viewers!!

The folks over at the Peacock released the numbers for the contest on Tuesday ... saying the game was the most-watched pre-9 AM ET sporting event in U.S. history.

The audience only grew once the showdown reached overtime -- with the network saying "An astounding average of 26.0 million viewers on NBC and Peacock were watching between 10:45-11 AM ET" as Jack Hughes scored the game-winning goal ... which ended a 46-year gold medal drought for the men's team.

A woman who claims to have been attending service during the Minnesota church protest covered by Don Lemon last month is now suing Lemon and other protesters, saying she suffered severe emotional distress as a result of the incident.

In court documents, obtained by TMZ, Ann Doucette claims she was attending a worship service at The Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, on January 18 ... when she alleges Don and others "unlawfully interfered" with her ability to "freely exercise her religion in a private place of worship."

Remember ... the demonstration was held in the wake of Renee Good's death and was meant to confront the Cities Church pastor David Easterwood, who is a Minneapolis ICE official.

Doucette is suing for an unspecified amount, claiming she suffered "severe emotional distress, fear, anxiety, and trauma" as a result of the protesters' conduct.

He said, "The only thing I wish for is that this is not a strain on the family ... I just hope it does not become a circus."

HBO’s steamy hit "Heated Rivalry" has fans going feral -- and now they can take their obsession offline ... 'cause they can officially rent out the actual Canadian cottage from the show!

Yes, seriously. The iconic lakeside Barlochan Cottage tucked away in Muskoka, north of Toronto, is hitting Airbnb -- and bookings open March 3 at 12 PM ET.

The price? $248.10 in Canadian dollars per night (about $181 USD) -- a cheeky nod to "24" and "81," the jersey numbers of Hudson Williams’ Shane Hollander and Connor Storrie’s Ilya Rozanov, the duo at the heart of the show’s fiery, queer hockey saga.

As any fan knows, the 3-bedroom forest-core fantasy in the pics wasn’t just set dressing -- it was the setting. From Connor’s now-legendary "I’m coming to the cottage" line to Shane and Ilya’s off-ice moments, all the way to that finale ... it’s basically a fandom pilgrimage site with throw pillows.

Gavin Newsom wasn't making racist remarks during a recent event -- since it looked like he was the intermission entertainment at a Coldplay concert -- so says our own Harvey Levin.

The TMZ executive producer tore into the misinformed outrage directed at the Governor of California after he related his own education and background to the audience at a book event in Atlanta, Georgia.

If you haven't seen the clip ... Governor Newsom basically says he had a mediocre SAT score and he can't read well due to his severe dyslexia ... so he's no better than anyone in the audience.

John Davidson's Tourette's tic -- which resulted in the disability activist screaming out a racial slur during an awards broadcast -- isn't necessarily about his true feelings coming out ... so says a reality star with firsthand knowledge of the disorder.

Baylen Dupree -- star of the hit show "Baylen Out Loud" -- released a statement Tuesday about Sunday's incident ... saying she felt she needed to say something as a person who deals with tics as well.

Baylen writes these verbal tics are not thoughts, opinions, or beliefs hidden deep beneath the surface -- they are involuntary impulses -- no different than a hiccup or a sneeze.
