Sen. McCain to Putin

Hand Over That Super Bowl Ring



Exclusive


090213_john_mccain_launch

Enough is enough ... Russian President and alleged Super Bowl ring snatcher Vladimir Putin needs to get that ring back on U.S. soil ASAP ... so says Senator John McCain.

Our photog caught up with Sen. McCain in Georgetown Sunday and broke down President Obama's chances of resolving the greatest threat to US-Russian relations since that thing in Cuba.


McCain -- a true American war hero (just sayin') -- says he's outraged and makes it clear ... the SB bling Putin took from New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft ... belongs back in the U.S. of A.


FYI --- Putin denies stealing the ring in 2005, his people say it was a gift. Riiiight.


So, can Prez O -- who's heading to Russia this week -- get it back? Check out JMC's take.

When Tyrese Gibson's daughter Shayla turned 5, he threw her a massive 300-PERSON birthday party ... complete with countless expensive gifts, TMZ has learned.Tyrese revealed the insane party details in new court docs, and he used them as ammunition against his ex-wife's bid to increase his child support payments.

Tyrese's ex Norma Gibson claims he's an absentee dad and she deserves more support because he consistently blows off daddy duties -- but he says the birthday bash proves otherwise.


In addition to the party -- at which Shayla received roughly 200 gifts -- Tyrese says he pays for Shayla's private school and her nanny, he regularly buys her new clothes, shoes, and around the holidays ... he spends "thousands" to play Santa.


Ultimately, a judge saw things Tyrese's way -- Norma's child support increase was denied last week.

Dear Tony Parker's rap career ...

You were only 6 years old ... but Tony has decided to put you out of your misery.


You were cheesy ... you were part French ... and you were terrible.


You also inspired YouTube comments like, "Tony, what the f*ck is this?" and "Bad bad bad."


Maybe it's a good thing Tony decided to pull the plug ... at least according to L.A. Lakers player Nick Young ... because, as we said before, you were really, really bad.


But we're not too sad, 'cause as long as YouTube exists, you'll never really die.


Au revoir for now ...

Sasha Grey -- '50 Shades' Is Bush League ... E.L. James Is a Sex Amateur


Exclusive


082913_sasha_grey_launch "50 Shades of Grey" author E.L. James is a hack with no REAL sex experience ... at least according to porn legend Sasha Grey, who tells TMZ, she's way more qualified to write erotic fiction than some horny middle-aged woman.

In case you didn't know, 25-year-old Grey -- who starred in 271 adult films before officially retiring at age 23 -- just released her own erotic novel called The Juliette Society.


We asked Grey if she thinks she's more qualified to write erotica than 50-year-old former "Twilight" fanfic writer E.L. James ... and her response, "HELL YES."


She also tossed in a subtle insult, calling "50 Shades" a "romance" novel ... not real erotica.


But does she think she'll earn $95 million this year like James did? Watch the video. Sasha's hot.
