The FOX News boss and the ultra-religious 66-year-old former wife of country-western music legend Chester Smith were spotted enjoying the sun in Barbados.

COURAGEOUS Christina Applegate is plunging into a heavy workload yet again — while battling crippling multiple sclerosis — leaving pals fearing the bloated beauty could run herself into the ground. After packing on 40 pounds while battling the dreaded disease, the former Married with Children sensation admits she was “nervous” while making her first red-carpet appearance in 18 months at the Jan. 15 Critics’ Choice Awards.

MOVIE superhero Jeremy Renner was trying to help a stranded person when he was nearly crushed to death by his seven-ton snowplow, suffering injuries so massive it’ll take years for him to recover. But the 52-year-old star, who plays the archer Hawkeye in the Avengers flicks, is finally home from the hospital after he “nearly bled out” and “almost died” while waiting for help following the turn-of-the-year incident, says a source. He was run over by his 14,330-pound plow after he stopped to help a relative whose car broke down near Renner’s snowbound $3.25 million Lake Tahoe mansion at about 10 a.m. on New Year’s Day. “It’s much worse than anyone knows. Jeremy is very aware of the fact that he almost died out there,” says a source. “The right…
