EMILY’S TOO SEXY Can an actress hurt her career by being too sexy? That’s the ditzy claim of brunette bombshell EMILY RATAJKOWSKI. The Gone Girl beauty, who got noticed with her topless stint in ROBIN THICKE’s “Blurred Lines” video, whines, “There’s this thing that happens to me: ‘Oh, she’s too sexy’… People don’t want to work with me because my boobs are too big.” Later, the bra-buster backtracked, saying models with melons are just a no-no for fashion shoots — but do get some bounce with Hollywood. No doubt! O’REILLY, THE MUSICAL! Radio shock jock HOWARD STERN says he’s planning a Broadway musical about the sexual harassment scandals of ousted pervy pundit BILL O’REILLY and kinky kingpin ROGER AILES! “I’ve written an outline” for FOX News the Musical, says Howie.…

JUST days after playing the squeaky-clean family man, backstabbing Ben Affleck gave his ex Jennifer Garner a cruel slap in the face by publicly hooking up with a younger beauty — and even bringing her home! Sources tell GLOBE, Jennifer, 45, was “disgusted” when photos splashed showing Ben, 44, out on cozy dates with blond bombshell Lindsay Shookus, a 37-year-old producer on Saturday Night Live. Adding insult to injury, Ben and Lindsay have reportedly been in a sizzling affair since 2015 — when he and Jennifer were still married!

Although Lindsay was spied sneaking into a car outside Ben’s house back in June — by July,…

SEX swapper Caitlyn Jenner wants to make another transition — from single woman to mom! Inspired by the news stepdaughter Kim Kardashian and hubby Kanye West are hiring a surrogate to have their third child, the man-made woman wants a family of her very own! Insiders say the former I Am Cait reality TV star, 67 — who fathered six kids with three different wives as Bruce — has always wanted more children. “Caitlyn froze her sperm some years ago, long before she started her [maleto- female] transitioning journey, so she’s always had this option if her adoption plans fell through,” a snitch spills to GLOBE. “As much as she likes the idea of a d o p t i n g , surrogacy is starting to appeal to Cait,…

NBC is pulling the plug on The Biggest Loser amid shocking charges staffers stuffed show fatties with illegal weight-loss pills! Now the show’s resident doctor, Robert Huizenga, is claiming the show was killed — and his career was ruined — because of doping charges by 2008 contestant Joelle Gwynn, who filed suit against the program. She insists trainer Bob Harper illegally gave her and other hulks the appetite suppressors Adderall, normally prescribed for attention deficit patients, and FDA-banned ephedra capsules. Joelle says the dangerous drugs left her feeling “jittery and hyper.” Although Harper denies giving drugs to contestants, Joelle says, “ P e o p l e chastise Bill Cosby for allegedly offering meds to women, but it’s acceptable to do it to fat people to make them lose weight.…

TELLING little white lies is totally normal — and it’s no crime to become an even better liar! “Lying has long been a part of everyday life. We couldn’t get through the day without being deceptive,” says Dr. Leonard Saxe, a polygraph expert and professor of psychology at Brandeis University. Here are expert tips on how to polish your fibbing techniques: 1 Spin a very elaborate story. Embellish it with lots of details. Scientific research shows people remember false descriptions well because of the effort it takes to make them up. 2 Be thorough in your research. Work out the details of your story before you start talking. 3 Lie only when you have something to gain. “Pathological liars can’t stop lying, so they tell a lot of little lies…

SINGER Paul Anka has won sole custody of his son, Ethan, after an emotional battle with ex-wife Anna Aberg — who’s been barred from having contact with the 11-year-old! Anka, the (You’re) Having My Baby singer who also wrote Frank Sinatra’s signature song My Way, says, “It’s the greatest day of my life. This was all about protecting Ethan.” But Lisa Helfend Meyer, Aberg’s attorney, argues, “There is no evidence” Anna is “an unfifit mother,” and claims Paul, 76, prevailed because of his wealth. Anna, a one-time Miss Sweden runner-up didn’t help her case by confronting Anka’s current wife, Lisa Pemberton, outside the courtroom during proceedings to shout, “Get a life!” That prompted Pemberton to respond, “I have a life ... with your child.”…

MORGAN IS FIRED UP JOINING Days of Our Lives as Anjelica has Morgan Fairchild flashing back to the end of her first soap experience. The sex symbol, who scored her first major TV gig as Jennifer on Search for Tomorrow in 1973, was unexpectedly axed in 1977. “I had gone out to L.A. to test the waters on my vacation, and they seemed to be a little stressed out about that,” she recalls. “I was in shock when they said, ‘We’re going to let you go,’ because Susan Lucci [ex-Erica, All My Children] and I had become sort of the b***h goddesses of daytime, so I was kind of surprised they made that decision.” The Falcon Crest star, of course, found great success in prime time. “Rather than panic, I just…

NOW that he’s out of the White House and doesn’t have to keep up the sham image of a loving hubby, former President Barack Obama has kicked wife Michelle to the curb and has yanked off his wedding ring. “Everyone knew there have been tensions with Michelle for years, but he’s had to stay with her for the sake of the presidency and their daughters, Sasha and Malia,” says a source. “But the girls are grown, so there’s no reason for him to continue the charade.” After partying up a storm with Virgin airline mogul Richard Branson at his swanky Necker Island paradise, Barack was gushing, “This is the life for me!” Now, the former commander in chief wants to “cut loose and party with billionaires like Branson — and…

MEAN-SPIRITED Dance Moms star Abby Lee Miller can’t sidestep around her harsh, new reality. The sharp-tongued con, who pleaded guilty to bankruptcy fraud earlier this year, is getting shipped to a California prison that’s notorious for vicious sex attacks! Former inmates at the Federal Correctional Institution at Victorville have accused staff of sexual assault! “Abby is going to find a big target on her back,” says a snitch. “Both guards and inmates will want to make an example of her. They’re going to be dancing on the Dance Moms star!” After a 20-count indictment, Miller, 50, admitted to hiding $775,000 from her Lifetime series and its spinoff — Abby’s Ultimate Dance Competition — from creditors during a bankruptcy case. She will spend 366 days in the perilous Victorville penitentiary. ››…

REGGAE icon Bob Marley hired Gambino mob soldiers to watch his back during his landmark 1980 shows at New York City’s Madison Square Garden, according to a new biography. Roger Steffens, author of So Much Things to Say, claims the I Shot the Sheriff singer — who still carried a failed assassin’s bullet in his arm from an earlier attack in his native Jamaica — paid the Mafia for protection because he feared another ambush. According to Steffens, Marley brokered the deal with the late Joe (Piney) Armone at Sparks Steak House — the future site of crime boss Paul Castellano’s rubout, just five years later. The wise guys did their job — but no one could save Marley from the cancer that took his life the very next year.…

BIG-SCREEN toughie Kurt Russell is stuffing his face with food after his romance with Goldie Hawn collapsed, insiders say. Now the Escape from L.A. hunk has blown up to a blubbery 300 pounds — and it’s put his life on the line! “He looks like he’s gained AT LEAST 40 pounds,” diet and nutrition expert Dr. Stuart Fischer tells GLOBE. “It’s all in his gut — and indicates he’s shortened his life span by up to seven years!” All that fat puts the 66-yearold actor, who’s 5-foot-11, at risk of high blood pressure, diabetes and cardiovascular disease, warns Dr. Fischer: “He needs a much better diet, better nutrition and LOTS of exercise. But his muscle has turned to flab — and that’s very difficult to reverse.” Pals say The Thing…

RAPPER Tupac Shakur penned a jailhouse confession to his superstar ex, Madonna — saying he’d dumped her because she was white! The shocking note was written by the 24-year-old hip-hop icon — 18 months before he was fatally wounded in a 1996 Las Vegas drive-by shooting. The Material Girl, now 58, dated Shakur in the ’90s, but their relationship had cooled by the time of the Jan. 15, 1995, letter — which is going up for auction and is expected to fetch more than $100,000! “For you to be seen with a black man wouldn’t in any way jeopardize your career,” wrote the imageconscious All Eyez on Me rapper. “But for me ... I would be letting down half of the people who made me what I thought I was.”…

GLOBE UPDATE COLD-BLOODED killer Thomas Randolph got TWO death sentences for hiring a hitman to slaughter his sixth wife — and gunning down the assassin to cover his tracks! The Las Vegas resident, 62, claimed he shot Michael James Miller, 38, in self-defense, after Miller murdered his wife, Sharon Causse Randolph, in 2008 — but the jury didn’t buy it. Cops say the hubby from hell wanted Sharon, 57, dead to collect a $360,000 insurance payout. As GLOBE reported previously, the case echoed the 1986 shooting death of Randolph’s second wife, Becky Gault, which was later ruled a suicide — but scored Thomas $250,000 in insurance money. Star witness Eric Tarantino testified Thomas had asked him to murder Becky — but he’d refused. Sharon’s daughter, Colleen Beyer, was overjoyed with the…

ONLY IN GLOBE! CARRYING the weight of family scandals and tragedies on her shoulders has taken a shocking secret toll on dying Queen Elizabeth! The beloved 91-year-old — Britain’s longest-reigning monarch — is a hunchback! “Her Majesty desperately tries to hide her deformity with clever dress and coat designs,” says a royal insider. “She disguises the droop she has on one side by adding an extra shoulder pad. “But the truth is she’s battling the debilitating bone-thinning disease osteoporosis. “Despite her condition, she performed an incredible 332 engagements in 2016, almost double what Princes William and Harry each did! But her condition is worsening and it’s too exhausting to walk or stand for long now.” According to experts, osteoporosis causes compression fractures in the vertebrae that result in loss of…

BURT Reynolds has nothing on ex-Marine Chick Donohue! While the Smokey and the Bandit star drove from Georgia to Texas and back in the film on a 28-hour Coors beer run, civilian Chick sailed from New York to Vietnam at the height of the war to bring his soldier pals some brews — braving heavy machine gunfire, sniper attacks and more! Now, almost 50 years later, Chick has recounted his crazy journey — filled with chilling firefights, sniper attacks and bizarre encounters — in a new book, The Greatest Beer Run Ever. Ticked off that protesters weren’t supporting the troops in 1967, Chick decided to visit all his buddies fighting the war and give ’em a pat on the back.

NO BUTTS about it, reality TV star Kris Jenner’s gluteus has gone maximus! The 61-year-old’s sweet cheeks are now booty-full Ñ just like her famous daughter Kim Kardashian! And medical experts tell GLOBE it’s likely Kris has gone under the knife to boost her bottom line! “I do think Kris Jenner had a butt augmentation,” Dr. Zara Harutyunyan of Cosmetic Rejuvenation Medical Center in L.A. tells GLOBE. “It seems to be a Brazilian butt lift, which combines liposuction from one part of the body with gluteal reshaping to enhance the buttocks using unwanted fat from other parts of the body. “This treatment gives more of a sculpted and natural lift.” Dr. Anthony Youn, who is known as America’s Holistic Plastic Surgeon, adds, “It’s possible she’s undergone either a Brazilian butt…

“WHAT you see is what you get!” was the signature line of funnyman FLIP WILSON’s most famous creation Ñ trash-talking Geraldine Jones. Of course, what audiences saw wasn’t what they got — since Wilson dressed in drag to portray Geraldine on his NBC variety show! Delivering sassy catchphrases like, “The devil made me do it,” and talking about her boyfriend Killer, Flip’s Geraldine act was a huge, hilarious hit. Sadly, when The Flip Wilson Show went off the air in 1974 after a four-year run, the comic rarely reclaimed the spotlight. When he did, the news was often bad. He was busted for cocaine possession in 1981 and succumbed to liver cancer in 1998 at the age of 64. He deserved a much better second act!…
