DESPERATE duo Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi are trying hypnosis to bring the mojo back to their marriage, which has been struggling since the former talk show queen’s big ouster from Hollywood, say sources. “Ellen’s undergone hypnosis before and now she’s got Portia hooked on it too,” tattles a tipster. According to snitches, their union of 16 years nearly crashed and burned after Ellen was forced to quit her daytime talk show in 2022 over rampant accusations that she was a bully who oversaw a toxic workplace. “Portia stood by Ellen through that nightmare, but it wasn’t easy,” spills the spy. “She was in a foul mood all the time and people wondered if they were going to split.” As GLOBE readers well know, Ellen, 66, and the 51-year-old…

COUNTRY music vet Shania Twain says she still gets stage fright — even though she’s been performing since she was eight! The You’re Still the One singer, 59, says getting onto a stage is “not a step, it’s a leap!” Before she goes on, she thinks about everything that could go wrong — including forgetting the words to her songs. “[That’s] normally what somebody with stage fright does, you go through this panic for a bit, and then once you’ve crossed that threshold, you’ve taken the leap. Now I feel once I’m there that I’m embraced by the audience, and [the stage fright is] over.” Shania also worries she’ll start rambling off topic during a performance and “they might have to take the hook out and get me off the stage!”…

TEENAGE terror Haegan Ray Sagers fatally shot his younger stepbrother during an explosive family feud in Utah — and now the scrawny 16-year-old is facing a felony murder charge as an adult, lawmen say.

The deceased minor was identified in court papers as M.P. Authorities did not disclose why the siblings were allegedly squabbling — but determined no other individuals were present when the death occurred. County Attorney Stephen Foote says an investigation suggests the incident was not self-defense and adds, “There’s evidence the discharge of the firearm was not accidental.…

PRINCE HARRY and his wife Meghan’s Archewell Foundation pocketed more than $6 million in contributions from a charitable fund that also distributes big bucks to help anti-LGBTQ and anti-immigrant organizations spreading messages of hate, critics charge. Now, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are facing a firestorm of criticism for accepting the dough from Fidelity Charitable — which receives donations from undisclosed benefactors who are said to influence where money managers funnel their dollars. Shockingly, Fidelity has doled out nearly $25 million to about 30 organizations identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) as hate groups! Fidelity forked over millions to alleged anti-gay nonprofits such as the Family Research Council, Family Watch International and American Family Association. Alleged white nationalist organizations have also accepted donations via Fidelity — including…

TRAGIC Lisa Marie Presley’s problems with her mom, Priscilla Presley, are still manifesting from beyond the grave! Sources say Priscilla, 79, is “crushed” she was deliberately kept out of the loop on her late daughter’s memoir, From Here to the Great Unknown. “Priscilla is hurting,” whispers a Graceland and Presley family insider. “She’s crushed because her own granddaughter Riley Keough didn’t want her to have anything to do with the book. “Riley wouldn’t even let Priscilla get an advance copy or a peek at the pages because she knew her granny wouldn’t like some of the things her daughter had to say about her — and Riley wasn’t about to change anything. “She wanted to stay true to her mother’s voice and her words!” And although Priscilla has had a…

The 43-year-old big-bootied Skims founder thinks she deserves more respect than she’s getting — especially from momager Kris, 68. “Kim has always insisted she’s the hardest-working member of the family and it’s hard to ignore her claim since she’s now risen to a different level than the rest of them,” spills an insider. “She’s producing a documentary on Elizabeth Taylor, plus her acting career is finally getting legs and she’s doing all her legal advocacy work. “It’s all a lot more prestigious than what any of her sisters are doing.” The lawyer-in-training, who’s scored as a reality…

DANGER may be lurking in your kitchen as a dozen brands of cinnamon powder and spice blends were found to contain excessive levels of lead! Researchers at Consumer Reports tested 36 products containing ground cinnamon and found all had detectable amounts of the toxic metal. But the watchdog group determined a third contained more than one part per million — a concerning finding that prompted multiple manufacturer recalls! “Even small amounts of lead pose a risk because, over time, it can accumulate in the body and remain there for years, seriously harming health,” says microbiologist James Rogers, director of food safety research and testing at Consumer Reports. The Environmental Protection Agency warns children are particularly vulnerable to lead as even low levels of exposure have been linked to damage to…
