PEEVED movie mobster Joe Pesci wants to whack his neighbors’ plans to extend the docks outside their Jersey Shore homes! The Goodfellas gangster fired off a letter to state authorities urging them to ax the two proposed piers in Lavallette. Pint-sized Pesci, 77, gripes the new docks, which are set to extend 300 feet into Barnegat Bay, would block homeowners’ views. The Irishman actor also insists his own dock is a standard 120 feet and a different neighbor’s 2018 extension “negatively impacted” boat travels. Urging officials to act “before it’s too late,” Pesci charges the larger docks could be dangerous because they “would force boaters, kayakers and paddlers in this area — which include children in addition to adults — to operate in waters far from land.” Everything you can…

CHARLIZE THERON doesn’t need no stinkin’ man! The 45-year-old South African stunner — who’s never been married — reveals she told her daughters that she’s dating herself! “Two days ago I was in the car with my two little girls and my little one said something like, ‘You need a boyfriend, you need a relationship,’” the Oscar-winning Monster star said on the podcast InCharge with DVF. “And I said, ‘Actually, I don’t. Right now I feel really good.’ Four-year-old August — whose big sis is Jackson, 8 — was stunned at the idea her mom could date herself. “She had this look in her eye like she had never really contemplated that that was even a possibility,” the Atomic Blonde beauty told designer Diane von Furstenberg. “Her mind was blown.”…

WORRIED Washington State scientists trapped their first live murder hornet — a massive Asian insect nearly three times the size of an average wasp with potent venom that can kill a man — late last month near Birch Bay! Now the researchers are hunting for new nests that could indicate the ferocious bugs are spreading to other states. As GLOBE reported earlier this year, the two-inch-long critters with three-inch wingspans invaded Washington last December and created panic. Their sting contains a neurotoxin that can kill humans by heart attack or anaphylactic shock. Scientists hope to tag captured hornets and track them back to their nests before they mate in mid-September, breeding new queens and drones. “If it becomes established, this hornet will have negative impacts on the environment, economy and…

THREE monster moms in Ohio pimped out their young kids to a depraved sex creep in exchange for drugs and money, officials charge. Tasha Stringer, 37, Kathryn McMullen, 36, and Magan Richmond, 32, are charged with felony rape after authorities said they allowed pervert Larry Dean Porter and others to repeatedly molest their youngsters, who ranged in age from 3 to 13. The FBI has accused Porter, 69, of providing illegal drugs and cash to junkie parents for access to their children. According to court documents, Porter often videoed his abuse of the kids, and his twisted trafficking scheme went on “potentially for decades.” Shockingly, investigators say one source claimed children “believed to have been previously abused by Porter” grew up and took “their own children to Porter in exchange…

WELL, this is a sure way to get an early taste for booze! The Busch family, owners until 2008 of Budweiser brewers Anheuser-Busch, required each firstborn son to taste the company’s beer just after birth — even before they had their mothers’ milk! PROBABLY not a good idea to swim too far away from Georgia’s Tybee Island — there is an unexploded nuclear bomb lying on the ocean floor! The Mark 15 explosive device was dumped by a B-47 after a 1958 mid-air collision and could not be found. The Air Force says it’s best left undisturbed and has no plans to attempt a retrieval. GET your head around this … The white hats fancy chefs wear, called toques, have 100 folds in them — to signify how many ways…

THE movie version of the superhit stage musical Cats was such a train wreck that even its composer, Andrew Lloyd Webber, thinks it stinks The 2019 bomb seemed to have everything going for it, including the star power of Taylor Swift and Rebel Wilson. But it was ripped by critics, shunned by audiences and lost a whopping $113 million. Webber described the movie as “ridiculous” and slammed director Tom Hooper for refusing help from “anybody who was involved in the original show.” ›› I love them. Love them. I think the more positive approach you have to smoking, the less harmful it is.— Sienna Miller…

PRINCE HARRY’S snooty, high-maintenance wife, Meghan, was a demanding diva long before she met and trapped the lust-crazed Lothario in marriage! A videographer who shot promotional teasers for Suits, the hit USA Network show in which Meghan, 38, had a second-rank role, recalls the future royal as prickly and standoffish. “They used to call her ‘the princess,’” he reveals. Meghan’s troublesome antics remind insiders of insecure screen superstar Marilyn Monroe, who was notorious for being late and holding up shootings. “Meghan was always having to be coaxed out of her dressing room … because she didn’t think she looked pretty enough, or her outfit wasn’t right or she felt she wasn’t getting prominent enough placement [in the pictures],” a set source recalls. “There were always tears. Every time. “Everyone thought,…

BLOATED bigmouth Alec Baldwin has been read the riot act by his health-nut wife, Hilaria, who’s demanded the doughy dad get rid of his bevy of bulges, GLOBE has learned. “She worries about him carrying so much baggage but also wants him to trim down for the sake of his self-esteem — and their love life,” says an insider. “It’s sad for Hilaria to see him let himself go like this, and she’s telling him to sort it out — if he knows what’s good for him!” The 62-year-old father of five recently showcased his scale-crushing state as he and Hilaria, 36, enjoyed a beach day in the Hamptons. Yoga instructor Hilaria — who’s pregnant with the pair’s fifth child — married the 30 Rock cutup in 2012 and is…

HEATHER MAKES A BIG BOOB-OO! GASP! HEATHER LOCKLEAR, 58, claimed filming the 1996 flick First Wives Club, starring GOLDIE HAWN, DIANE KEATON and BETTE MIDLER, became “gross” when on-screen husband JAMES NAUGHTON improvised a humiliating move — circling her nipple area with a creepy digit. “He actually outlines my areola with his finger,” complains the former Dynasty beauty on a recent podcast, adding: “It didn’t say that in the script.” But she soon ate her accusatory words when the 74-year-old actor called foul, proving his index’s caress was indeed printed on the page! “James remembers shooting this scene as written in the script,” a rep shot back. “He completely understands that Heather would have felt uncomfortable shooting this scene, as he felt uncomfortable as well,” stated the mouthpiece, sharing a…

BEATLES fans believed the band “hated each other” when they split up, says Paul McCartney — but he insists that wasn’t true! “I suppose when the Beatles broke up, perhaps there was a misconception that we all sort of hated each other,” says Sir Paul, 78. “What I realize now is that, because it was a family … families argue. And families have disputes.” Paul claims his 1970 lawsuit to dissolve the band, which also included John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, was a bid to control their music. But the legal move prompted John to write the song How Do You Sleep? There was an “atmosphere of ‘Let’s get Paul. Let’s nail him in a song,’” recalls Paul. “And those things were pretty hurtful.”…

HUMBLE hitmaker Garth Brooks has permanently pulled his name from consideration for Entertainer of the Year at the Country Music Association awards show — saying it’s time for “someone else” to have the honor. The Friends in Low Places singer, 58, has previously won the prestigious title a stunning seven times — most recently in 2019. But the superstar says he’s stepping aside, so the next generation can grab the spotlight “’cause they’re all out there busting their butts.”…

A CAR-CRAZED Florida fraudster was paid almost $4 million in COVID relief funds — and used the ill-gotten gains for a wild shopping spree that included a pricey Lamborghini sports car, authorities allege. David T. Hines, 29, applied for nearly $13.5 million in Paycheck Protection Program loans for his supposedly ailing moving business, say investigators. But the Department of Justice claims Hines lied on the applications and made inaccurate statements about his companies’ expenses and the salaries of staffers. “Those purported employees either did not exist or earned a fraction of what Hines claimed,” says U.S. Postal Inspector Bryan Masmela. “Collectively, Hines falsely claimed his companies paid millions of dollars in payroll in the first quarter of 2020. State and bank records, however, show little to no payroll expense during…

FURIOUS Queen Elizabeth lit into bratty grandson Prince Harry after he cursed out a palace staffer for not giving in to the demands of his high-maintenance fiancée, Meghan, as their wedding neared! The royal tongue-lashing came after Harry threw a fit at Angela Kelly, the queen’s closest aide, after she nixed Meghan’s sudden insistence to try on the tiara she was to wear at her May 2018 wedding. Royal protocol required an appointment to unlock the cabinet where the gems are kept, but Harry flipped out and spewed a torrent of profanities. “He was put firmly in his place,” by the queen, says a palace source. “He had been downright rude.” ANDREW SEX CASE RECORDS SHREDDED! – Page 24…

POTTY-MOUTHED Kelly Osbourne ripped into an internet troll with a curse-laden comeback after saying she’d received a message crowing how “great” it was that her dad, Ozzy, was dying! Kelly, 35, shared the cruel comment about the Black Sabbath front-man, 71, who’s battling Parkinson’s disease, and called out the “disgusting mother f***er” accused of sending it. “Seems like you need some attention?” she wrote on social media in a now-deleted post. “So here you go … You p***y a** b***h!”…

NINE years after leaving Law & Order: SVU, Christopher Meloni is returning to the franchise as fan favorite Elliot Stabler in a new spinoff — and reuniting with former co-star Mariska Hargitay — because he feels his character “has evolved.” Meloni, 59, is set to star in Dick Wolf’s Law & Order: Organized Crime, which will see him occasionally share the screen with Hargitay’s Olivia Benson. He says of mellowed Stabler, “I think he’s at a much better place with himself vis-à-vis the world.”…

SKY pirate D.B. Cooper — who stole a $200,000 ransom by hijacking a passenger jet and then escaped by parachuting into a dense Washington State forest — may be alive and well, according to bombshell new evidence discovered 49 years after the daring crime. Scientist Tom Kaye’s explosive new findings reveal that $5,800 of the stolen bills was buried more than a half year AFTER the skyjacking. “Cooper is still messing with us,” insists Kaye. The puzzle of what happened to the thieving daredevil remains, with the FBI having closed the case in July 2016. On Nov. 24, 1971, a middle-aged man who gave the name of Cooper took off with 40 other passengers and crew on a Northwest Airlines Boeing 727 flight from Portland, Ore., to Seattle. After downing…

AQUAMAN beauty Amber Heard believed billionaire Elon Musk bugged the Tesla electric car he gave her as a gift, court papers reveal. In a deposition taken in connection with Johnny Depp’s defamation lawsuit against a British newspaper, Heard family friend Jennifer Howell claimed she was told by Amber’s late mother, Paige, her daughter “found out” the car had been fitted with a listening device by the “controlling” tycoon. Amber’s sister, Whitney, labeled Howell’s claims “complete fiction.” Musk declined comment. He did, however, deny Depp’s courtroom accusation that he had an affair with Amber, who has accused the Pirates of the Caribbean star of domestic abuse. He insists she abused him. Both claim the other is lying. Depp is suing the newspaper for branding him a wife beater.…
