A famous psychiatrist who has worked on some notorious cases -- including the murder of JonBenet Ramsey -- has been murdered.

Steven Pitt was shot and killed Thursday night outside his office as he was leaving work. Witnesses say they heard a loud argument and then shots rang out.

Pitt was involved in the police investigation into the 1996 murder of JonBenet Ramsey. He believed the key to the case was pineapple in JonBenet's digestive tract, which showed she had eaten some not long before she died. However, Patsy Ramsey -- her mother -- had said JonBenet hadn't eaten any of the fruit in the hours before she went missing, but her fingerprints were found on the fruit bowl, leading Pitt to believe someone was covering up.

Pitt had also worked on the Baseline Killer case and many others.

Buffalo Wild Wings just became the latest victim of a Twitter hacking -- perhaps by the Russians, perhaps by a rogue employee -- but either way ... it wasn't very nice.

The sports bar franchise's official Twitter page fired off several racist and vulgar tweets Friday night, which were up for about 20 minutes before somebody realized and got them deleted.

Some of the hacked tweets contained hateful comments including the n-word, while another claimed the restaurant's secret wings recipe contained ... well, something very gross.

There was also a vile joke directed at Wendy's.

It's unclear who's responsible, but BWW's Twitter account is back to normal and any activity from the past 6 hours has been deleted.

6:00 PM PT -- There was also this tweet during the hack -- a photo of a man covering up half of his face ... so it's possible he's the culprit.

Legendary producer Rick Rubin is the architect behind Jay-Z, the Beastie Boys and now... Lil Tay?!

The foul-mouthed 9-year-old rapper posted this video on her Instagram story for her more than 2 million followers to soak up. It's a quick video ... but the mere hangout's got everyone wondering if Rick's gonna get in the Tay game, or if they just met by chance.

"Roseanne" may be on the verge of rising from the dead with a second reboot, but this time centered around Sara Gilbert's character ... TMZ has learned.

Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... the powers that be at ABC are exploring the possibility of re-branding the show and focusing on the character Darlene instead of Roseanne.

We're told Sara's been calling cast members to gauge their interest in the event ABC gives the reboot the green light. We're told John Goodman is "very interested."

Our sources say Tom Werner, who produced "Roseanne" through his company Carsey-Werner, is involved in the effort to reboot the show around Sara.

What's more ... ABC is desperately trying to salvage the jobs of those who were affected by its swift decision to cancel the show earlier this week ... especially for the writers and crew.

"Dancing with the Stars" pro Sharna Burgess made a splash -- literally and figuratively -- after a night of some heavy partying.

Sharna hit the beach Friday in Miami ... wearing the hell out of her navy blue, strapless bikini. For good measure ... she matched her Apple Watch with a blue-trim strap. Shades were also a must.

The Australian beauty also brought her pooches with her for a little fun in the sand. Sharna was out partying the night before ... turning up with the "Total Divas" crew.

UFC champ Tyron Woodley is ALL ABOUT Snoop Dogg's new foray into MMA -- and now he's breaking down Snoop's fighting video on "The Hollywood Beatdown!"

Snoop just started MMA training at Jay Glazer's Unbreakable gym in L.A. -- and Tyron says he'll probably get on the mat and spar Snoop himself at some point!

But the question ... which skinny, MMA-training rapper would win in a fight -- Snoop or Wiz Khalifa?

There's a lot more ... including Tyron's take on the Nick Diaz arrest and Cris Cyborg's future in the UFC.

Cedric the Entertainer has a theory on why it SEEMED (keyword: seemed) Tracy Morgan was hating on Tiffany Haddish ... so hear him out.

We got Cedric at LAX on Friday and he went to bat for his buddy and fellow 'Last O.G.' costar, Tracy ... who is taking some heat -- particularly from Lil Rel -- for appearing jealous as hell of Tiffany during an appearance on 'Vulture Spot' last week. ICYMI ... Tracy was asked what it's been like watching Tiff's career take off.

Tracy responded, "We're not gonna go there ... because this isn't Tiffany's show. This is Tracy Morgan."

Cedric chalked it up to exhaustion -- rounds and rounds of interviews. Cedric takes it a step further and says Tiffany can relate.

And it's true ... Tracy eventually shows some love to Tiffany and the rest of the cast and crew towards the end of the clip.

Caitlyn Jenner won't be attending her son's weekend wedding ... because she's more than 7,000 miles away from Bali preparing for another big event.

Caitlyn touched down in Vienna, Austria Friday, where she'll be attending Life Ball 2018 ... a benefit raising money for amfAR's research to find a cure for HIV/AIDS.

We broke the story ... Brody Jenner's deeply hurt his dad is taking a pass on going to his wedding in Bali Saturday, which our Brody sources say was due to Caitlyn having a lucrative business opportunity she couldn't pass up.

It's unlikely the "lucrative deal" was the Life Ball, but it seems pretty certain she won't be surprising Brody last minute by showing up to see him say "I Do."

If Disney is so high and mighty, as they showed by canceling "Roseanne," then why are they screwing over a couple family-run businesses that delivered them a hit kids show? ... is the question posed in a new suit.

Production companies Milk Barn and Microseries claim they spent 2 years creating "Goldie & Bear" ... only to get kicked to the curb by Disney once the company realized it had a hit on their hands.

According to the docs ... Disney secretly lined up a rival production company to replace the family businesses for Season 2, and made it "virtually impossible for these companies to ever be in the children's television or feature business again."

To make it worse, the production companies claim they got stiffed $250k for 18 months of executive producer work ... and Disney crushed their plans to produce other animated children's programming.

The Royal Family will NOT retreat from public view in the wake of an ISIS call to action against 4-year-old Prince George ... sources directly familiar with the situation tell TMZ.

As we reported 32-year-old Husnain Rashid encouraged ISIS to attack the boy who is third in line for the throne -- attack him at his school.

Our Royal sources tell us, Prince George is scheduled to appear June 9 with his family on the Buckingham Palace balcony for a ceremony in full public view, and the event will absolutely take place.

As for attending school, the Palace is well aware the location of the school is public record and the boy will continue attending.

The family has almost remarkably been seen in public ... check out this pic taken just last Sunday at a public park where Kate Middleton, Prince George and Princess Charlotte attended the Houghton horse trials.

This story will blow your mind.

There's a real estate company on the Jersey Shore claiming its company has gone global after -- get this -- one of its signs washed up in France SIX YEARS after Hurricane Sandy blew it into the Atlantic Ocean.

Crazy, right?

The folks over at Diane Turton, Realtors in Point Pleasant, NJ posted on Facebook that a man named Hannes Frank stumbled upon the sign on the shores of France a couple weeks ago. The company confirmed the sign is theirs and say it was from a waterfront listing back in 2012.

But, then came Hurricane Sandy. The house survived but the sign was ripped apart ... ultimately landing in the ocean and floating across more than 3,500 miles.

The company had a good laugh about it, saying, "Having our signage wash up in France on the beach truly proves that Diane Turton, Realtors is a global real estate company."

Arnold Schwarzenegger looked anything but the worse for wear Friday as he strolled out of his Santa Monica office building.

The former Cali Guv looks remarkably healthy ... just 2 months after undergoing a procedure to replace a pulmonic valve ... this the result of a heart defect.

His skin tone underscores his recovery. Dude is fully back at the gym and pretty much fully back to the normal routine.

Danielle Bregoli might not have known who LeAnn Rimes was, but LeAnn definitely knows who she is ... and on top of that, she's down to collaborate with Bhad Bhabie!!

We got LeAnn heading into the Abbey in WeHo on Thursday night and told her we schooled Danielle on LeAnn's legacy. After all, Danielle had just become the youngest female artist since '97 to score 3 Billboard Hot 100 hits. Last person to do it? LeAnn.

But when we told Danielle about this she wondered who LeAnn Rimes was ... asking if she's Busta Rhymes' sister. Hilarious.

Check it out ... LeAnn's down to hook up with Danielle in the studio. And all we can say ... wonder what they'll come up with to blend their unique styles.

BTW ... LeAnn was SLAYING on her way to the Abbey. Pure fire.

Nick Saban finally took a major L.

The Alabama football coach took some of his players on a boat trip in Lake Tuscaloosa for some team bonding on Thursday ... which sounds like a perfectly great time, except for one minor detail:

Somebody forgot to fill the gas tank!!

Thankfully, national championship hero Tua Tagovailoa documented the players' hilarious reactions when they realized they were stuck ... while Saban appears to make a call for help.

But don't get too excited, Auburn fans ... the guys made it back to dry land.

11:25 AM PT -- Benjamin Brafman tells TMZ ... neither he nor his firm ever met with Thompson or any of the other women named in the suit. He says if Alex Spiro met with any of the women he did so on his own time, and not while working with him. Brafman also says Spiro never met with Weinstein while at his firm and had no connection with their representation of Weinstein.

Harvey Weinstein turned a woman's sales pitch into a full-on sexual assault -- which was captured on video -- and followed it up by raping her in his hotel room ... according to an explosive new class action lawsuit.

Melissa Thompson claims she had a meeting with Weinstein at his New York office in September 2011 to pitch her tech company's new video platform to use in the movie biz, but almost immediately he started harassing her. She says there's video evidence of this because her computer's video camera was on for the pitch.

According to the suit ... Weinstein at one point reached down and began caressing her leg and moved his hand under her dress and mumbled, "It's fun when you do this." Thompson claims she ignored it and carried on, fearing he would become angry and aggressive if she rebuffed him.

Thompson says she went to a follow-up meeting with Weinstein at the Tribeca Grand Hotel later that day hoping to secure the video deal, but the meeting quickly moved to his hotel room ... where he forced himself on her. She claims she escaped and went to the bathroom, but when she came out he was naked from the waist down.

According to the suit ... Weinstein tried to force her to perform oral sex on him but she refused, so then he pushed her flat on the bed and raped her. Thompson claims he then masturbated on the bed next to her ... then acted like nothing happened once he was finished.

Thompson claims she felt "dirty and ashamed."

Tekashi69 and Fetty Wap's crew got into a dangerous showdown that ended with shots fired ... according to law enforcement.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... 6ix9ine and his crew hit up a recording studio Wednesday night in L.A. to meet up with Fetty. We're told Tekashi never made it inside because Fetty's posse stopped them at the door.

We're told a confrontation ensued and, at some point, someone pulled out a gun and fired a couple of shots in the air. A witness called cops, but everyone had already left by the time they showed up. We're told cops recovered shell casings and are now on the hunt for the shooter.

Our Fetty sources claim the rapper wasn't even in L.A. the night of the shooting.

Here's what's strange ... Tekashi and Fetty's crew have been hanging out since the shooting ... posting videos together on social media. For what it's worth ... Tekashi and Fetty released a single together this year too.
