President Trump Should Chill for Comey Testimony Says Sen. Lindsey Graham
The only thing President Trump should be stressed about while James Comey testifies is his golf game ... according to Sen. Lindsey Graham.
We got Sen. Graham on the Hill -- just before the Comey hearing began -- and he gave us his pre-game analysis. While the whole nation's got Comey fever, Graham says, "it's gonna be a lot of theater."
His point is the Prez has nothing to worry about, and this whole hearing is just a lot of posturing.
Graham's advice for Trump -- in a word? Fore!

Earlier this week, Cosby arrived at court locked arm-in-arm with Keshia Knight Pulliam ... and on Wednesday with another former co-star, Sheila Frazier.
As we reported, the person who hasn't been by his side yet is his wife, Camille Cosby -- something the jury has, no doubt, noticed.

Gaga's role was previously played by Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand, neither of whom went red.
We looked ... Gaga's had orange hair before, so nothing new for her. Just a regular day at the office.

Derek Fisher DUI Crash Car Is Registered to Matt Barnes
Talk about making a bad situation worse ...
The SUV that Derek Fisher wrecked over the weekend in his DUI crash is registered to one Matthew K. Barnes... TMZ Sports has learned.
Fisher was driving the white 2015 Cadillac Escalade early Sunday morning when he hit a guard rail on the 101 Freeway in L.A. and flipped it while driving home with his girlfriend, Gloria Govan.
The car was completely totaled. Fisher was arrested for DUI.
Of course, Govan was previously married to Matt Barnes. They have two children together.
In fact, we're told the Golden State Warriors star had given the Escalade to Gloria specifically "for the kids."
So far, no comment from Barnes ... but we're guessing he's gonna want Fisher to pay for the replacement.

Anne-Marie Johnson Maher Way Too Comfy with N-Word ... I Know, Firsthand!
Bill Maher has history with the n-word, but doesn't understand the history behind the word ... according to Anne-Marie Johnson.
The actress tells us she wasn't surprised when Maher got blasted for saying the n-word on 'Real Time' ... because she was front and center when he did the same thing 16 years ago.
Johnson says the problem is Maher's not getting the message from black people that the word causes pain ... and she doesn't think he ever will. The difference this time is he got called out for it.
It's interesting -- Anne-Marie doesn't think Bill's racist ... just stubborn. And she doesn't seem too hopeful he'll change.
Maher's said he regretted using the word last week, but back in 2001 he got into a heated exchange with Anne-Marie on "Politically Incorrect" -- and it included multiple n-bombs.

Sen. Richard Burr Intel Cmte Chair Knows Comey Will Be Greatest Show on Earth

Just to get him warmed up ... we put Burr on the hot seat, and asked if he thought senators who aren't on his committee -- not to mention everyone in the House -- will get any work done Thursday?
With supreme confidence, Burr said ... "Oh, I think there's gonna be a big national and international viewership of this."
Man knows of what he speaks. We'll be live streaming when Comey starts testifying.

Diddy & Suge Knight See Eye to Eye ... On 'All Eyez on Me'
Diddy and Suge Knight will not reignite the East Coast-West Coast war over the new Tupac biopic -- in fact, Death Row and Bad Boy finally agree on something.
Production sources on "All Eyez on Me" tell us ... producer L.T. Hutton reached out to both moguls about how they're portrayed in the film, and to get their thoughts on the story. We're told Diddy loved it so much he gave his blessing for Biggie's "Who Shot Ya?" to be used on the soundtrack.
We're told Suge wasn't able to watch the movie due to his situation -- sitting in jail awaiting trial for murder -- but lawyers did, and described it to him. Suge gave it his stamp of approval, mostly because he goes way back with Hutton and trusts him.
Think about it ... if Diddy signs off on a movie that includes "Hit 'Em Up," it's gotta be good! Right?

Obama's Press Secretary I Feel for Sean Spicer ... Trump Won't Let Him Do His Job
Barack Obama's former press secretary says Sean Spicer is having a real hard time for one big reason ... his boss.
We got Josh Earnest, now an NBC political analyst, at LAX and asked if he sympathized with Sean and his nearly daily battles with the media. Sean's been doing less press briefings lately.
Despite their political differences ... Josh clearly feels for the guy who has his old job, but says Sean's woes could be fixed if Donald Trump followed Obama's lead in one crucial way.
He's also got some advice for Spicey, not unlike what you'd tell someone clinging to a cliff.
