Justin Bieber blew into Cleveland to take in game three of the NBA Finals on Wednesday, and things quickly blew up -- when he got into a short-but-not-so-sweet fistfight outside his hotel.

TMZ captured some grainy footage of the Bieb starting a verbal dispute with a much bigger dude, then flipping out when the guy tossed a playful punch at him. Justin let loose with a hard right that didn't seem to have much effect on the bodyguard-sized stranger, who quickly knocked the singer to the ground.

The whole thing lasted less than a minute, but Bieber clearly lost this one by TKO. Here's the video

 


BRISTOL PALIN: Just Married


Bristol Palin and Dakota Meyer have done more than just rekindle their romance -- they've actually tied the knot.

The couple, who share a five-month-old daughter named Sailor Grace, were previously engaged in 2015 but split up days before the wedding. From then on their relationship was on-again, off-again and they recently decided to elope. Palin told Entertainment Tonight, "Life is full of ups and downs but in the end, you'll end up where you're supposed to be. We are so happy to share with loved ones the wonderful news that we got married!"


RICHARD SIMMONS: Not Transitioning Into a Woman


Richard Simmons won't be following in the footsteps of Caitlyn Jenner.

Despite a report that the fitness guru was transitioning into a woman, his rep Tom Estey tells People magazine the story is "not true." He explains that Richard "has decided to live quietly the last few years. He had knee surgery a few years ago and has a bum knee. He is still on Twitter and Facebook and works behind the scenes continuing to inspire and motivate people to lose weight. When he decides to come back, he will come back."

This comes on the heels of Richard spending a few days in the hospital after reportedly exhibiting "bizarre" behavior.

DAVID LETTERMAN: "Couldn’t Care Less" About Late-Night Television


David Letterman says he “couldn’t care less” about late-night TV -- including his Late Show replacement, Stephen Colbert.

In a rare interview with NBC News, Tom Brokaw asked Dave if he missed being on CBS every night. He said, “You know, I don’t. And it’s interesting. I thought for sure I would. And then, the first day of Stephen's show, when he went on the air, an energy left me and I felt like, ‘You know, that’s not my problem anymore.’ And I’ve kind of felt that way ever since. I devoted so much time to the damage of other aspects of my life. The concentrated, fixated, focusing on that… It’s good now to not have that. I couldn’t care less about late-night television."

As for his replacement, Dave said he thought CBS gave the job to the wrong person. "There should be more women. And I don’t know why they didn’t give my show to a woman. That would have been fine."

The interview airs on On Assignment, a limited series from Dateline NBC, Sunday at 7 p.m.
