RICHARD HARRISON of Pawn Stars fame cut a spiteful deal before he died in June at age 77 — he axed son Christopher from his will! A previous document split his fortune among wife JoAnne and his three adult kids, but the reality show’s Old Man had a change of heart in 2017, which has not been explained. “I have intentionally and with full knowledge failed to provide for Christopher,” reads the revised document, which put co-star son Rick in charge of his estate.…

STUNNING model Amanda Cazalet claims lovestruck Madonna “stalked” her for two years — with a series of sizzling notes and come-ons — after they shared a passionate kiss for the pop queen’s music video! Now 53, catwalker Amanda auctioned off one of the Material Girl’s mash notes for more than $7,000 in 2004. But it was recently resold online for $50,000 — and Amanda insists the letter is proof of Madonna’s obsession. In a note penned in Valentine-red ink, Madonna scribbles: “I think you are the most beautiful woman in the world. I’m dying to kiss you again. I fantasize about you all the time.” Known for her many flings with dudes and kinky images in her coffee table book, Sex, the 59-year-old diva fell like a ton of bricks…

BALDING bozo Kathy Griffin may be suffering from an incurable disease, doctors warn! Exclusive GLOBE photos show the ranting redhead’s hair is thinning, and her noggin has noticeable bald patches — which experts say are symptoms of two serious autoimmune diseases, including lupus! “Kathy’s gone to extremes to cover up her thinning hair by covering her forehead with long bangs and, rumor has it, wigs,” snitches an insider. “Her hair always looked too perfect. People suspected she was wearing a weave to hide baldness.” The caustic comic’s career nosedived last year after she posed with a bloodied fake severed head of President Donald Trump. Griffin, 57, followed that stunt by shaving her head, revealing a badly receding hairline. “Kathy says it was to show support for her cancer-stricken sister going…

SCOTTISH actor Ewan McGregor won widespread acclaim for his breakout role as a heroin addict in Trainspotting. But this summer, he’s showing his softer side by taking on the title role in Disney’s Christopher Robin, playing a grown-up version of Winnie the Pooh’s pal. Here are ten things you don’t know about the 47-year-old father of four. 1 Jude Law was his roommate before they both became famous — and Ewan says they’re still friends. 2 Portraying a movie junkie had real-life consequences. “An airport customs inspector once recognized me from Trainspotting and strip-searched me looking for drugs,” says Ewan. 3 He played young Obi-Wan Kenobi in three Star Wars prequels, but Ewan’s uncle Denis Lawson was the family’s first sci-fi screen hero, having appeared in 1977’s Star Wars as…

RAINBOW-HAIRED rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine was flashing his cash and jewelry at a notorious New York City strip club when he caught the eye of crooks, who later beat the blowhard black and blue — and robbed him of nearly $800,000 in money and gold, say law enforcement sources. The recording artist, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, has called himself “untouchable” after emerging unharmed from dustups with rivals. But Hernandez now confesses he’s “happy to be alive” after being jumped by thugs last month. After Hernandez, 22, left the jiggle joint CityScapes in Maspeth, Queens, he says he was traveling back to Brooklyn in an SUV, which was tapped from behind at a red light. That’s when the rhymester claims two men with guns jumped out and dragged him into…

PARANOID creep Matt Lauer played the victim in his first interview since getting booted from Today, complaining the sexual harassment accusations that cost him his job last November have made him an “easy mark!” The 60-year-old crybaby made the shocking statement while whining about his 26,500-acre homestead in New Zealand. After leasing Hunter Valley Station ranch for $9.2 million before his career imploded, Lauer’s now locked in a battle with government groups who want him to allow hunters and hikers to pass through his property to reach a public park. The disgraced newsman thinks people “are taking advantage of some difficult times I’ve been through over the past six months” and swears there’s “misinformation that’s out there and it’s out there on purpose!” The axed anchor grumbles, “I think they see…

JOHN SCHNEIDER says he’d rather get locked up than pay his ex-wife — because he’s flat broke! The headstrong Dukes of Hazzard star spent a day behind bars after failing to fork over $150,000 in alimony to Elvira Schneider.

Walnuts good for your heart WALNUTS boost heart health and slash the risk of strokes, according to a review of 25 years of research! Scientists led by Dr. Marta Guasch-Ferré of Harvard University examined studies focusing on the link between walnut-enriched diets and cardiovascular disease. They found the tasty snack seemed to promote lower cholesterol levels in the blood — without causing weight gain. The benefits of walnuts, which Guasch-Ferré calls “natural health capsules,” come from their omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants. MS risk linked to iron in brain AN EXCITING new MRI-based brain-mapping method may predict if multiple sclerosis patients will get worse and even identify people who are likely to come down with the crippling nerve disease.

A NEW high-tech study using CSI-style techniques has concluded the Shroud of Turin is a fake. The controversial religious relic kept at Italy’s St. John the Baptist Cathedral is touted as the burial cloth used to wrap Jesus’ body after he was crucified. The body, face and crucifixion wounds are somehow burned into the wrapping. Despite claims the shroud is nearly 2,000 years old, scientists carbon-dated the cloth in 1988 and determined it originated between 1260 and 1390 A.D., supporting claims it was a hoax as Jesus is thought to have been crucified in 33 A.D. Now British researchers have employed modern forensic techniques on the shroud, focusing on bloodstains from the supposed wounds. Scientists used a volunteer and a mannequin, along with human and synthetic blood — and applied…

BASKETBALL giant Shaquille O’Neal thought he’d face his greatest fear by diving with sharks, but his courageous TV stunt turned terrifying when one of the razor-fanged man-eaters squeezed through the bars into the safety cage. The seven-foot-one former terror of the NBA hardcourts later rebounded from his close call, boasting: “I survived a shark attack, you b**ches!” But Shaq wasn’t boasting — or trash-talking — when the chilling moment was caught on camera during Discovery Channel’s annual Shark Week. Co-hosting with comedian Rob Riggle, the 46-year-old hulk confessed: “I’m terrified of sharks. I’ve watched When Animals Attack 1 through 10. “Remember Jaws? And I live in Florida, so all the shark attacks are in Florida.” Still, he bravely climbed into the specially made, 12-foot-tall, six-foot-wide cage and was dunked into…

MICHAEL STRAHAN is doing a sweet victory lap — after one-upping former partner Kelly Ripa yet again! The former NFL star will co-host GMA Day, the new third hour of Good Morning America — and it could topple the daytime diva from her perch! “Revenge tastes especially sweet for Michael right now,” spills a source. “He always felt like a second banana to Kelly — as if she never really wanted him.” Michael, 46, joined Kelly on the syndicated morning show Live! in September 2012, and the show’s ratings surged. But the two were locked in a bitter feud from the start, insiders reveal. Sources say Kelly never wanted to team up with Michael, but network bigwigs insisted on hiring him to replace Regis Philbin. “Kelly constantly lobbied ABC and…

HERE’S a dream job! Houston-based Mattress Firm is looking for a paid intern whose “greatest skills include sleeping in, constant napping and a passion for a good night’s rest” to rate bedding for an internet marketing campaign this fall! A 153-YEAR-OLD ghost town in California’s Owens Valley has been purchased for $1.4 million by an investment group planning to turn the old silver mining center into a tourist attraction. Cerro Gordo, which was abandoned when the mine closed, features a dance hall, hotel, bunkhouse, chapel and outlying buildings. THERE’S no Boy Wonder on the CW’s new Batwoman TV show — the curvy costumed crime-fighter is a lesbian!

LOVESTRUCK homemaking diva Martha Stewart has fallen into an oddball romance with pothead TV co-star Snoop Dogg and is now spouting his hip-hop lingo and matching his weed-puffing ways, surprised insiders say. Since the 77-year-old strait-laced billionaire launched a cooking show with the Gin and Juice rapper two years ago, she’s been “following Snoop around the set like a lovesick schoolgirl,” tattles a snitch. “She says words like ‘fo shizzle,’ ‘homie’ and ‘beeotch,’ listening to rap and hip-hop and wearing baggy T-shirts — and even got her own pair of diamond grillz! “She says she’s never felt more free from the ties of her uppity image.” And Snoop, who’s been happily married to Shante Broadus, mom to three of his four kids, since 1997, “digs her too,” adds the source.…

SCARY JOHNNY BATTLING EX! Gaunt JOHNNY DEPP is blaming his wasted look on wife-battering slurs by his ex AMBER HEARD. Shrunken to an estimated 113 pounds, Johnny tells pals: “I’m not sick. I’m not battling anything, other than the smears I’m determined to prove are false.” He’s currently in a legal fight over Amber’s claim she was injured when he hurled a mobile phone at her during a 2016 squabble. In court docs, his legal team insists: “The phone did not hit Ms. Heard on the face or elsewhere. Nor did [Depp] pull Ms Heard’s hair or strike her, or grab her face or touch her.” Johnny says he’s got witnesses and his deathly appearance is due to stress — despite friends’ fears he may have liver problems. Meanwhile, Amber…

DAVID CASSIDY didn’t die flat broke! The Partridge Family star’s son Beau, 27, will inherit more money than expected — up to $1.68 million more. The actor’s estate was originally estimated to be worth around $150,000, but he had debts of over $186,000. The estate now claims those debts have been paid, and it has assets and cash worth about $230,000. Beau was also the beneficiary of his dad’s retirement plan, which exceeded $450,000, and estimated $1 million life insurance policy.

SPANKY the spider monkey bit off more than she could chew — after reportedly attacking two people in Florida, the pesky primate and her owner were both slapped down by the law! Tina Ballard is charged with going on the lam with her furry fugitive after Spanky’s hanky-panky in an Okeechobee Home Depot caused employees to call the cops! On May 27, the manic monkey jumped out of a shopping cart and grabbed a cashier’s shirt, leaving red marks on the person’s shoulder and back, according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. But Ballard, 56, insists Spanky “just wanted to hug and play.” At the time, the cheeky simian was not reported — but Spanky was banned from the store.

A BREAKTHROUGH blood test spots deadly skin cancer before it spreads, potentially saving thousands of lives! Researchers at Australia’s Edith Cowan University developed the first-of-its-kind screening, which scans for ten specific skin cancer-related antibodies. The scientists say the test detected early-stage melanoma in 79 percent of cases! Currently, melanoma is only detected through a visual check, with suspect skin patches cut out surgically and biopsied. “This is what makes this blood test so exciting as a potential screening tool — because it can pick up melanoma in its very early stages when it is still treatable,” says lead researcher Dr. Pauline Zaenker. “Patients who have their melanoma detected in its early stage have a five-year survival rate between 90 and 99 percent.”…

BRISTOL PALIN has gotten her mother’s vote of confidence as the 27-year-old reality star joins the cast of MTV’s Teen Mom OG. “Bristol’s gonna be a great messenger for kind of overcoming a little bit of challenge and doing well in life,” says Sarah Palin, whose 2008 Republican “family values” vice presidential campaign was rocked by unwed Bristol getting pregnant at age 17. “I support her doing this, and I’m proud of her,” says the former governor of Alaska.…

Staffers blab when the 32-year-old actress spotted a waitress wearing nude-colored sandals — instead of the regulation white that matches their sexy, super-short-skirted uniform — she saw red. “Wear the same shoes, please — or you’re fired!” Lindsay chillingly snapped at the server. Her social media followers figured the bossy beauty was kidding about her threat to can the gal over the footwear and plastered joking posts with laughing emojis. But the Parent Trap star soberly replied: “Totally serious.” She’d have been a perfect boss on Celebrity Apprentice.…
