RAVAGED by agonizing, incurable cancer, beloved icon Jackie Kennedy Onassis masterminded her own death — with help from son John Jr.! And there was no autopsy to uncover the truth! But, in a bombshell revelation, a family insider now admits the widow of both assassinated President John F. Kennedy and shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis ended her life by an “assisted suicide. “She chose to die on her own terms,” says the insider. The 64-year-old former first lady “knew her secret would be safe” because she’d previously been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and “there would be no autopsy to reveal what really caused her death,” says the source. “She made it clear when she was diagnosed in early 1994 that she did not want to suffer through grueling treatments that would…

DYING Queen Elizabeth’s 65-year marriage is about to be ripped apart by a candid TV series exposing her husband as a serial cheater and shameless hypocrite! Palace courtiers fear the ugly truth — being aired for all to see — could kill the frail 89-year-old monarch, who has always turned a blind eye to her Greek-born Prince Philip’s antics. Philip, 94, is reviled for his sharp tongue and high-handed ways — and has the reputation of being a complete phony. “Philip thinks there are rules for everyone else, but he can do what he pleases,” says a Palace insider. “He’s been cheating on Elizabeth since they first married. But with him it’s do as I say, not as I do.” The two-faced Prince actually slammed his daughter-in-law, Princess Diana, over…

BARBARA WALTERS RIDING TO RESCUE! CREATOR BARBARA WALTERS is fit to be tied over the turmoil on “The View” and is considering coming out of retirement to save the all-girl chat fest. ABC bigwigs would love her to do just that — but pals are telling the 86-year-old TV icon that the show is beyond redemption and she should just let it go. However, the smart money is on a big comeback. BOBBY FLAY’S BOOBY PRIZE! Celebrity chef BOBBY FLAY, 50, is STILL being roasted over his nasty divorce from STEPHANIE MARCH, 41, who got the heave-ho in July.

BELOVED game show host Bob Barker is facing his sad last days after a terrifying fall put him in the hospital with a nasty two-inch gash on his forehead and an injured knee. The 91-year-old former host of “The Price Is Right” and “Truth or Consequences” stumbled, fell and split his head open as he tried to negotiate uneven pavement outside his Hollywood Hills home. Cops, who just happened to be in his neighborhood, saw him go down and rushed to his side. He was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he received stitches for the head wound. He was later released. But the fall has sparked fears by pals that Bob is facing his tragic end. “We’ve all been worried about him for some time,” says an insider. “He’s…

GLOBE columnist Jeff Rodack tells it like it is about celebrities – how they get under his skin with their stupid antics and the nonsense they try to put over on the public. Here is his unique take on Hollywood newsmakers and fakers. I hereby pledge to vote for the first presidential candidate who vows to outlaw the Kardashian family. I don’t care about foreign policy, taxes or anything else. It’s time this long national nightmare came to an end! This talentless clan of publicity whores makes me sick to my stomach! I’ve had enough! They just couldn’t wait to use Lamar Odom’s tragedy to steal the spotlight. An out-of-control Lamar was found face down in a grim Nevada brothel where he had spent four days and $75,000. Cops revealed…

JOHN RITTER’S body should be exhumed and subjected to an autopsy to prove the beloved “Three’s Company” star DIDN’T die from natural causes — but was MURDERED! That’s the demand of a friend, who insists the star’s death was covered-up to make it appear the 54-year-old comic genius died of an aortic dissection, a rip in the largest blood vessel in the body. The pal says he believes Ritter, who fell ill on the set of the sitcom “8 Simple Rules” in September 2003, was POISONED! “He died at 10:48 p.m., almost five hours after being brought to the hospital by paramedics,” says the source. “But he had been sick on the set all day, with vomiting and sweats — classic symptoms for poisoning. “Because there was no autopsy, no…

COMIC Robin Williams’ death at his Tiburon, Calif., home on Aug. 11, 2014, was ruled a suicide by hanging by the Marin County coroner – but now an expert says the investigation may have overlooked murder! “It seems the coroner was ready to close the case and didn’t want to look at any alternate theories,” says private investigator Dan Hanks, a former technical advisor to the Marin County Sheriff. Robin was last seen alive by his third wife Susan before she went to bed in a separate room at 10.30p.m. the previous night. His body was found by his assistant the following morning hanging against a closed closet door in his bedroom The coroner noted that the door to Robin’s room was locked from the inside. “But the door had…

SECRET tape recordings made by screen legend Marlon Brando reveal his hatred for Hollywood and how he branded his glittering movie career as nothing more than bull***t. And when it came to his notorious sex drive, the actor — who fathered 16 children from three marriages and countless affairs — admitted he was “a beast” who “had women coming in the door, going out the window.” ‘Lying for a living, that’s what acting is’ A good conman The Oscar winner, who died in 2004 at age 80, bared his hidden anguish in more than 200 hours of never-beforeheard audio recordings, some made under selfhypnosis. They are revealed in an explosive documentary, “Listen to Me Marlon.” “I didn’t make any great movies. There’s no such thing as a great movie,” says…

WEIGHT-challenged country star Wynonna Judd has gobbled back the 55 pounds she lost for “Dancing With the Stars” and is now so huge she needs help just to walk! As these shocking and tragic photos show, the 51-year-old songbird, now crushing the scales at a whopping 295 pounds, needed assistance while also steadying herself with a hand on a car when she arrived in Las Vegas for a series of shows with mom Naomi. “She went on a starvation diet for ‘DWTS,’” says a source. “Now she’s piled it back on.” Adds a family friend: “Wy’s thrown in the towel. “She’s struggled with her weight for years and has finally sworn off diets for good. “The poor woman can’t even walk without help, but even that hasn’t convinced her to…

THREE lights have gone out in Hollywood, leaving the entertainment community and fans devastated. Pat Woodell, who died of cancer on Sept. 29 at age 71, was the original Bobbie Jo Bradley on the 1960s hit “Petticoat Junction.” After two seasons, Pat felt her role “was going nowhere.” She quit in 1965. But Pat was always sorry she left, a source says. Meanwhile, Shirley Jones’ husband, actor and talent agent Marty Ingels, passed from complications due to a stroke on Oct. 21. He was 79. “There’s not a day I won’t miss him and love him to my core,” the “Partridge Family” actress said. Three Dog Night singer and founding member Cory Wells, 74, died unexpectedly on Oct. 20 at his home. Bandmate Danny Hutton mourned: “We had been together…

VIOLET-EYED vixen Elizabeth Taylor got her start in seduction with some of Tinseltown’s and Washington’s most notorious playboys: Errol Flynn, Mickey Rooney, Orson Welles, and future presidents Ronald Reagan and John F. Kennedy! A scandalous recent biography, “Elizabeth Taylor: There Is Nothing Like A Dame,” reveals a long, raunchy roster of older guys who helped turn little Liz into a ravenous maneater — with the future President Kennedy right at the top! Authors Danforth Prince and Darwin Porter insist Liz lost her virginity to actor Peter Lawford, a future Kennedy in-law, in a limo at 15 — and she made her own Kennedy connection thanks to “A Date With Judy” co-star Robert Stack. The handsome Stack hooked her up with young Massachusetts Congressman John F. Kennedy, and they had an…

OPRAH WINFREY, who has waged a lifelong losing battle of the bulge, is facing a bitter backlash after buying a stake in Weight Watchers and becoming a diet spokesperson! The former talk show queen is being ridiculed by fans and turning into an even fatter fatcat out to add a mountain of cash to her $3 billion fortune! “How can she be an inspiration to lose weight when she has a private chef and still can’t shed the pounds?” asks one irate woman in an Internet post. “ Oprah’s going to try another diet platform? What a joke!” blasts a critic. “She has reinvented herself every five years — fat to thin to fat. It has made her millions. Just another business move.” As her best friend, “CBS This Morning”…

THE graphic autopsy report that followed the murder of John Lennon has never been released. And it’s led to explosive claims the document may contain scandalous medical facts about the slain ex-Beatle that his widow, Yoko Ono, wants to keep secret forever. On the night of Dec. 8, 1980, the 40-year-old superstar and Yoko were about to enter their historic New York City apartment building, The Dakota, when crazed stalker Mark David Chapman, 25, fired five shots at close range from a revolver. Four of the lethal hollow point bullets hit Lennon — three of them in the chest and back. Minutes after the 10:50 p.m. shooting, Lennon was pronounced dead at Roosevelt Hospital. The next day, New York’s chief medical examiner Dr. Elliot M. Gross conducted an autopsy and…

PRINCESS Kate is furious with little sister Pippa Middleton, who is blaming the Royals for her failed career, Palace insiders reveal. Pippa, 32, wants her blueblooded in-laws to land her a high-profile position, and it’s caused a major rift with Kate and Prince William. “Kate is embarrassed by Pippa’s desperate efforts to cash in on the Royal connection,” says the source. “And the squabble is ripping the Middletons apart! Even Kate’s mother, Carole, is taking Pippa’s side! That’s not sitting very well with Kate, who is fighting with William’s stepmom, Camilla. She doesn’t need problems from her own flesh and blood.” But fame-hungry Pippa just can’t seem to find success. She’s flopped as an author, newspaper columnist and TV correspondent. Her romance with wealthy stockbroker Nico Jackson just went belly-up,…

HE’S been a stoner, a yogi and a Brat Pack creep. Plus he’s obsessed with ritual and order. And can you believe he owns more than 30 hats? It’s no wonder James Spader has been called “The Strangest Man on TV.” Here are 10 things you don’t know about the eccentric 55-yearold star of NBC’s “The Blacklist” that definitely prove he’s earned the title. 1. James worked as a busboy, a truck driver and a yoga instructor — he even met ex-wife Victoria Kheel in a yoga studio! 2. “When I was 16 and 17, I was a potsmoking hippie,” he admits. 3. He was such a convincing sleaze when auditioning for the “Pretty in Pink” role of Steff that the casting director hated him on sight! 4. He won…

ABRUTALLY battered teacher who ran over her abusive husband has avoided a murder rap — thanks to a shocking 911 recording that had angry citizens leaping to her defense. Police arrested second-grade teacher Angela Luke, 40, the day after her bank vice president husband, Daniel Luke, 42, was pronounced dead, socking her with two homicide charges! But that was before a desperate 911 recording surfaced that captured Angela being mercilessly beaten. The deadly drama unfolded at the couple’s home, near Canal Winchester, Ohio, where Angela was attacked by her blotto husband in front of their two kids. Their terrified 12-year-old daughter called 911. “My dad is hurting my mom. He’s making marks on my mom!” she yells on the recording, telling the dispatcher her dad had been drinking. “Get off…

BEHIND her trademark smile, legendary child star Shirley Temple was so tormented by the pressures of fame, she secretly turned to cigarettes to calm her nerves. In the 1930s, Hollywood portrayed smoking as glamorous. But Shirley’s lifelong obsessive habit led to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and her death at age 85 in her Woodside, Calif., home in February 2014. COPD causes coughing, wheezing, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and makes even basic activities like walking, bathing and cooking, difficult. “Shirley became a recluse,” says a source. “She knew smoking had caused COPD, and there was no cure. “As her health deteriorated, she insisted there be no services, memorials or gravesite — and no autopsy, when she died. “It was a secret she wanted to take to her grave.” Even…

Shocking new autopsy evidence reveals pro grappler Chris Benoit was suffering from fatal drug and steroid damage — and had less than 10 months to live when he murdered his wife and son before killing himself. After suffocating wife Nancy, 43, and their boy Daniel, 7, the wrestler hung himself at their Fayetteville, Ga., home in June 2007. Autopsy experts later determined 40-year-old Benoit had severe brain damage due to the concussions he’d gotten over decades in the ring. But former sister-in-law Sandra Toffoloni says new evidence reveals Benoit’s long use of drugs and steroids damaged his heart and triggered a murderous paranoia. “The medical examiner told us Chris was on his way to death within 10 months,” she says. “His heart was huge, three times larger than normal, and…

Medical news YOU can use! THE SECRET to aging well — and living to 100 — is staying active, socializing and NOT acting your age! “Age is not a problem — society makes it a problem,” says aging expert Rudi Westendorp, a professor at the University of Copenhagen who stresses society needs to change its attitudes about the elderly. “Old age and illness are two separate things.” The researcher insists it’s not healthy — or correct — to automatically assume getting older will make you sick and infirm. And today’s Americans can’t base their thinking on the lives and experiences of their parents or grandparents. Modern science has changed the way we live and often offsets genetic factors that impact longevity, he says. Westendorp says leaps in science, medicine and…

GEORGE “SPANKY” McFARLAND looks awfully wary while perching in the lap of 7-foot-5 Tex Madsen! This shot captures a classic scene from the 1934 “Our Gang” short “Mama’s Little Pirate,” in which the little rascal discovers a giant’s treasure. The careers of both actors would end up hampered by their size. Roles for giants were understandably limited — and Spanky soon outgrew the “Our Gang” series. Acting jobs proved scarce for the adult McFarland, who had starred in 95 classic film shorts in just 11 years. Before he died in 1993, a bitter Spanky said, “I started at the top and worked my way down.” He wasn’t entirely joking!…

DYING Cher is desperately begging her transgender son, Chaz Bono, to find a wife! The 69-year-old superstar, who is battling a killer virus and emotional stress, is fading fast, fear friends. “Cher’s last wish is for Chaz to find real love and happiness,” says a source. “She blames herself for much of the agony Chaz has endured as he changed gender. It was a really tough thing for Cher to deal with and she wasn’t very supportive. “But as she faces her final days, all she wants is to see him happily married.” Cher’s dramatic plea came as Chaz, 46, made the shocking confession that he’s striking out in his bid to find a permanent partner — or even a date. “I seem to repel women that I am attracted…

HOLLYWOOD legend Mickey Rooney’s passing on April 6, 2014, raised red flags after a doctor signed the death certificate without an official autopsy — even though two of his daughters believe he was poisoned! Ed Winter, assistant chief medical examiner for L.A. County, examined 93-year-old Rooney’s corpse after his office received reports the star was abused — which “turned out not to be true.” But he admits his office didn’t conduct toxicology tests to detect any chemicals in his bloodstream, which Rooney’s daughters, Kelly, 56, and Kerry, 54, suspect were present. They became suspicious after learning their dementiastricken father signed a new will on March 11, 2014. It cut out his seven surviving biological children and basically left his entire estate to stepson Mark and his wife, Darlene. They lived…

NFL stud TOM BRADY’s ex BRIDGET MOYNAHAN is definitely over the football hero — she wed businessman ANDREW FRANKEL. Congrats! Meanwhile, “The View” co-host RAVENSYMONÉ has split from girlfriend AZMARIE LIVINGSTON after three years together. “Jersey Shore” star JENNI “JWOWW” FARLEY shared some doubly good news. She married her longtime boyfriend ROGER MATHEWS and announced during their wedding that she is expecting baby No. 2. Comedian JEFF DUNHAM, 53, just welcomed twin boys Jack Steven and James Jeffrey Dunham into the world with wife AUDREY. “Dance Moms” sensation ABBY LEE MILLER has been hit with a 20-count indictment accusing her of defrauding a Pittsburgh bankruptcy court by hiding $750,000 in assets. Oops! Grateful Dead bassist PHIL LESH revealed he is in a battle with bladder cancer. Good luck, Phil. Original…

IT’S sweet revenge for Michael Easton, who’s having the last laugh at the “General Hospital” bosses who fired him! Since Michael’s character was killed off in July, the soap has lost more than 140,000 viewers. “Just months before he was axed, Michael was named the No. 1 ABC soap actor in a viewers’ poll. He was shocked as anyone they kicked him to the curb,” a source tells GLOBE. Dr. Silas Clay was written out of the show last summer after “producers just felt they could go with cheaper, younger actors without any big backlash,” the insider explains. Now, the source says, Michael, 48, should be expecting a desperate phone call in the near future. “It’s only a matter of time before they ask him to come back,” the source…

TRAGIC Joan Rivers died while undergoing surgery — but the true causes of her death will never be known because the motor-mouth comic and star of “Fashion Police” wasn’t given an autopsy! Rivers, 81, went into cardiac arrest during a routine procedure to evaluate acid reflux at New York’s Yorkville Endoscopy clinic on Aug. 28, 2014. She died on Sept. 4. Famed forensic pathologist Dr. Cyril Wecht noted doctors pumped 120 mg of the powerful anesthetic propofol — which killed Michael Jackson in 2009 — into the comedienne. “That’s a lot,” says Wecht. He says if evidence showed her two doctors bungled the procedure and that led to her death, they could’ve been charged with involuntary manslaughter. “You have gross negligence here,” says Wecht. “This is a death that should…

SUPERSTAR Whitney Houston and her tragic, 22-year-old daughter Bobbi Kristina were BOTH murdered — but key evidence is being withheld in a massive double cover-up, sources charge. Whitney’s sister-in-law Leolah Brown says the deaths of mother and daughter, which are nearly identical, were “no accident.” And damning evidence is in the autopsies. But John A. Carman, a former Secret Service agent turned law enforcement consultant, says the fact authorities are still refusing to release their findings after “Krissi” passed away in July “smacks of a double cover-up.” He also notes the similarities between the women’s deaths calls for a murder investigation. “Whitney ends up dead in a bathtub, covered with bruises, under hinky circumstances,” he says. “Three years later, her daughter dies in a bathtub, covered with bruises, under hinky…

HENPECKED millionaire Simon Cowell is joining the judges’ panel on “America’s Got Talent” — after his baby mama told him to get to work! Sources say the 56-year-old showbiz mogul was reduced to pestering AGT producers for the chance to replace radio shock jock Howard Stern. He told them, “If you are looking for a very goodlooking British judge which sort of fits this show, I know someone.” Cowell’s pals dish that he was pushed into a comeback on American television by Lauren Silverman — the mother of his only child, 20-month-old Eric. The 38-year-old knockout told Cowell she wanted to move back to America to be closer to her mom in Miami, and to see more of her 8-yearold son Adam, who attends school in Manhattan and often stays…

A HARD-AS-NAILS military man is sure to shock his wartime buddies at the next reunion — especially when they see his stunning curves! That’s because huge and hairy 240-pound Marine Matthew Avedian has transformed into a stunning, busty woman named Sona. It was only a few years ago that Sona, who served multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, was living “the American Dream” in Detroit. The vet had a great job, a neurologist wife and a beautiful little girl to drive home to in a flashy TransAm. But Sona battled a soul-destroying secret — he wanted to be a SHE! “I could only hide so much. I was exhausted,” says Sona. “All these years I’d been living a lie and I realized it was time to be true to myself.”…
