COUNTRY stud Blake Shelton is flexing his muscles and demanding The Voice bring back his secret bride, Gwen Stefani, when the competition returns to the air next month! “Blake wants Gwen beside him on Season 16 — and that’s that,” spills an insider. “He misses working with her and he’s afraid they’re not spending enough time together. Having her back on the show seems like the best solution.” The Hollaback Girl served as a coach on the NBC hit during Seasons 7, 9 and 12, an adviser on Seasons 8 and 10 — and sources say the cash-strapped cutie needs another Voice gig. Gwen, 49, handed over half of her $75 million fortune to ex-hubby, British rocker Gavin Rossdale, in their divorce. She’ll also owe him a chunk of what…

SCIENTOLOGY poster boy Tom Cruise is still so gung-ho over the space-alien cult he’s targeting his Top Gun costars as religious recruits, insiders say. In the jet-jockey film sequel, Tom’s character, Maverick, trains characters played by Miles Teller, 31, and Glen Powell, 30, to be fighter pilots. But when the cameras aren’t rolling, the 56-year-old church leader is barraging them with Scientology teachings, say sources. “They like Tom and they’re thrilled to be working with him, but he does come off as too overbearing sometimes,” notes the source. “Tom brings his books by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard to the set and shares his insights and revelations with them, expecting them to be bedazzled. “He hands out books and pamphlets and it’s considered rude if you don’t take one! “Miles…

SUCCESS wasn’t all it was cracked up to be for Jada Pinkett Smith, who says her booming career worsened her fragile mental health — and nearly caused her to take her own life! “I was extremely suicidal.

A DAD and his new wife are accused of being cruel monsters who tortured a nine-year-old girl as if she were a terrorist — waterboarding her as punishment! Utah residents Joseph Mitchell, 29, and wife Ilaria, 28, now face child abuse charges for using the excruciating torture technique — forbidden by the U.S. military — on their young daughter, say Provo cops. The girl revealed on three occasions her dad and stepmom bound her hands behind her back so she was helpless, held her down in the bathtub, put a towel over her face and ran water over it while she suffocated, police say. “The nine-year-old stated she cannot breathe and it hurts when this happens,” says the police report. Waterboarding was a torture used on terrorists to make them…

STONEY WESTMORELAND, the 48-year-old actor who played loving grandpa Ham on Disney’s Andi Mack family series, has been sacked after police charged he’s a twisted sicko who tried to bed a kid the same age as his TV co-star!

The twisted actor found the minor on an online site for “meeting people for the purpose of…

STAR TREK legend William Shatner is scared to tell women they’re looking good or have great legs because he doesn’t want to be accused of sexual harassment! The former Captain Kirk, 87, blames the #MeToo movement, which exposes male sexual predators! “I’ve changed my behavior to quite a degree because it’s a revolution!” he says. While he supports #MeToo for the changes it’s made in society, the father of three daughters believes it’s become too extreme. “It’s changed the whole man-woman relationship,” charges the star.…

HOLIER-THAN-THOU Mia Farrow is being slammed on social media — after a former model claimed she did threesomes as a teenager with the Rosemary’s Baby legend and Woody Allen! Mia famously accused Woody of sexually molesting her daughter Dylan — after he dumped Farrow for another daughter, Soon-Yi!

SCIENTOLOGY’S most feared enemy Leah Remini is being treated like a leper by cult members, who literally run for the hills when they see her, the actress says. When Leah gave her acceptance speech for a Television Critics Association Award in 2017 for her series exposing the church’s bizarre and frequently cruel practices, she says actress and sect member Elisabeth Moss actually bolted from the building to avoid hearing her comments trashing the faith. Leah says the cult demands members “not watch or listen to anything or anyone who speaks out against the abuses of it,” and orders its followers to shun family members who leave the church. “They literally run away from me,” says Remini. “It’s really sad to watch.” When everything seems to be going against you, remember…

HEARTLESS deer poacher David Berry Jr. got what he deserved — he was ordered to watch the tear-jerking Disney film Bambi every month for a year while he rots in the slammer! The 29-year-old Missouri creep brutally murdered hundreds of the critters with the help of family members over a three-year period. “The deer were trophy bucks taken illegally, mostly at night, for their heads, leaving the bodies of the deer to waste,” says Lawrence County prosecutor Dan Trotter. In addition to a year behind bars, the judge decided to teach pity to the shameful butcher. So he ordered Berry to watch Bambi once a month. The classic 1942 animated feature boasts one of the saddest episodes in movie history, where little fawn Bambi sees his loving mother brutally gunned…

So I thought, ‘Let me get an eye on him,’” Lee says. The two were later introduced by a mutual friend and sparks flew. But Lee says Hudson worked overtime to hide his sexuality — to avoid wrecking his career! “We couldn’t take any pictures together.

HYPNOSIS is twice as effective in treating the painful symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome as other methods, according to a recent study. The mental therapy, which includes soothing imagery and progressive relaxation techniques, helped 50 percent of test subjects find relief after one year, say researchers from University Medical Center in the Netherlands. IBS is an incurable gastrointestinal disorder that affects as much as 16 percent of the population and typically causes abdominal pain, vomiting and bouts of diarrhea and constipation. “We do not know exactly how gut-directed hypnotherapy works,” says study leader Dr. Carla Flik. “But it may change patients’ mindset and internal coping mechanisms, enabling them to increase their control over autonomic body processes, such as how they process pain and modulate gut activity.”…

A COMPUTER glitch at Circle K stores around the Midwest reduced the price of gas — which is averaging $2.38 a gallon nationwide — to a mere two cents per gallon!
