A medical authority tells GLOBE, “Any heart attack is serious, but especially one where you have to have three…

Thomas Howell, Tom Cruise and Rob Lowe filmed the cult movie based on S.E. Hinton’s bestselling novel.

Then Gary was given to Carrie’s daughter — Scream Queens actress Billie Lourd — since he got along so famously with Billie’s dog, Tina. But that pairing didn’t work out, as Billie and her uncle, Todd Fisher, decided Gary had a greater connection with Corby McCoin, Carrie’s longtime personal assistant. Todd says nobody should worry about Gary or late mom Debbie Reynolds’ dog, Dwight. “None of these pets will ever go without what’s best for them,” says Todd. “They all have trust funds. Let’s put…

THE upcoming FOX revival of Love Connection will feature same-sex couples for the first time — but media experts question whether this gay twist will be too much for viewers to handle! Like the original romance romp — a game-show hit in the 1980s and early 1990s that revitalized host Chuck Woolery’s flagging career — this modern update will feature singles sent on three blind dates, who will then tell all in front of a live audience. But questions remain about whether viewers will relate to the show, which is hosted by Real Housewives mastermind Andy Cohen. “What’s next, a gay Dating Game?” scoffs one media mole. “Networks love to rehash old ideas. The gay angle will grab headlines, but I don’t know if it will grab viewers. Remember, nobody…

In another, she says, “This is awful. I hate it!” The University of North Texas coed got stranded when her vehicle ran out of gas driving from the canyon to Arizona’s Havasu Falls.

GLADIATOR star Russell Crowe has packed on so much weight, he looks like he couldn’t fight his way off of a couch — and doctors warn the movie chunk is facing a deadly health crisis. Recent photos show the 53-year-old actor, who’s shaved his head, looking bloated and flabby. “He looks like he’s 270 pounds,” estimates an eyewitness. A source says Russell has a history of gaining and losing weight for movies, “but he just can’t seem to get rid of the extra pounds this time.” And doctors warn his inand- out waistline puts him at higher risk for deadly diseases and wrecking his metabolism. “Yo-yo dieting increases the risk for heart disease, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure and many other illnesses,” New York internist Dr. Stuart Fischer tells GLOBE.…

OLYMPIC great and former Dancing with the Stars champion Kristi Yamaguchi, 45, made a world-class flub, while cheering on current DWTS competitor Nancy Kerrigan. “Can’t wait to see you grace that ballroom floor.

And it’s no once-a-month thing! “She has a specialist come to her home in Malibu every week to get rid of any masculine hairs on both her body and her genitals,” dishes an insider. “Her waxing tech charges $500 for home visits.” The cost, frequency and agony have Caitlyn “considering permanent laser hair removal” like stepdaughter KIM KARDASHIAN. “With Kim, it was understandable — she had all that dark hair,”…

Shifty Florida native Ignatius Pollara was living the sweet life, scamming about $1 million operating as a quickhanded crook while his own mother acted as a lookout. When Florida lawmen busted him for a 2012 burglary spree boosting more than $2 million in Lego sets and toys from the Toys “R” Us chain, his activities were put on hold. But back on the street in 2015, the toy thief, 51, lied to his parole offificer, concocting a tale about needing to visit relatives in the Midwest.

AMERICANS are too busy to get busy — and are having less sex today than they did 25 years ago, according to new research! A recent study published in the journal Archives of Sexual Behavior reviewed sex data tracked from 1989 to 2014. Researchers found adults were having sex 60 to 62 times a year in the 1990s, but by 2014 that number dipped to less than 53 times a year. Shockingly, the biggest drop was among married people, who went from 73 times a year in 1990 to only 55 times a year in 2014 — meaning they’re having less sex than singletons. Experts say our jampacked schedules may be to blame. ‘‘I would say the No. 1 cause for a lack of sex is fatigue,’’ says Pepper Schwartz,…

A PAIR of merry pranksters rocked the mainstream media by conning TV morning shows into booking them as strongmen. Fakers Joe Pickett and Nick Prueher issued a press release touting the availability of “inspirational strongmen” Chop and Steele. The hype-happy article cited a tour and an America’s Got Talent appearance that never happened! But naive newsmen and booking agents across the country clamored to have Chop and Steele appear on their shows — thinking a legit muscle-bound act would show up in the studio! But when Joe, appearing as Chop, and Nick, who played Steele, stopped by for morning shows on WFMZ in Pennsylvania, WEAU in Wisconsin and KXMD in North Dakota, the anchors and viewers were in for stunning displays of silliness. The average-looking “strongmen” showed off their muscles…

ENEMIES, A LOVE STORY GENERAL Hospital newcomer Chloe Lanier (Nelle) had a total blast shooting the heated confrontation with Laura Wright (Carly). The fierce showdown scene — after Carly learns Nelle slept with Sonny — only looked atomic. “It was so fun!” Chloe says. The duo grabbed dinner together after the face-off — and Laura paid. “I would never think that Laura actually felt about me the way Carly felt about Nelle, but it was still nice to kind of just decompress and pig out for a little bit afterwards,” says Chloe. “It’s nice to relax after scenes like that, because they can be very soul-sucking!” TWIST AHEAD FOR Y&R STAR TWENTY-EIGHT years after joining The Young and the Restless, Peter Bergman (Jack) is thrilled to still be in the mix of…

EVERYBODY knows MICKEY MOUSE, but until the early 1950s, when this photo was snapped, few recognized the creator of the squeaky-voiced critter — WALT DISNEY. That’s when Walt began appearing as host of his hit TV show, Disney’s Wonderful World of Color, which ran from 1954 to 1968. Walt first introduced beloved Mickey to the world in his 1928 cartoon, Steamboat Willie. From there, the brilliant illustrator graduated to full-length animated films like 1937’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, family movies like 1964’s Mary Poppins and eventually founded his world-famous Disney theme park empire.…
