BAWLING Britney Spears had a blowout fight with hubby Sam Asghari in a crowded restaurant, according to sources who fear the fledgling lovebirds could soon be flying off to divorce court! The spiraling songbird, 41, was caught on leaked cell phone footage looking out of sorts as she and stud muffin Sam dined at a posh bistro near her suburban L.A. home. Spywitnesses claim Britney was “manic” and “talking gibberish” to such an alarming degree her beefcake boytoy stormed out! While Asghari, 28, later moved to downplay the incident — insisting there was no “meltdown” and he left only to fetch the car — it’s the latest drama to rock the pair’s marriage of just eight months. Insiders say the fitness hunk and aspiring actor has had a bellyful of…

BUTCHERED bride Anggy Diaz’s decapitated body was found in a blood-soaked Texas home — and her husband of less than three months was arrested for the young newlywed’s brutal murder! According to Sheriff Troy Guidry, Jared Dicus confessed to killing his 21-year-old spouse after deputies discovered the Nicaraguan native’s carved-up corpse in the gore-spattered cottage the couple shared behind his parents’ Waller County house. Lawmen say one of Dicus’ rattled relatives squealed after he uttered concerning comments, which made them check the duo’s digs — where they found Anggy’s dismembered remains. Guidry calls the scene “gruesome” and adds, “Evidence shows the suspect used a kitchen knife.” The sheriff reveals the murder weapon — and the gal’s head — were recovered elsewhere on the property. Guidry explains there were prior calls…

BLOODTHIRSTY Sicilian Godfather Matteo Messina Denaro boasted he “killed enough people to fill a cemetery,” but when the murderous Mafia boss was finally nabbed after being on the lam for 30 years, he went with a whimper — and cops didn’t even need cuffs! The onetime womanizing Cosa Nostra kingpin was a pathetic 60-year-old cancer patient when cops busted him outside a Palermo, Sicily, clinic on Jan. 16 where he was due for bloodwork under the fake name Andrea Bonafede. “They discovered he was ill and compiled a list of patients in Italy with colon cancer,” notes crime author Giacomo Di Girolamo. Cyprien d’Haese, director of the Netflix documentary The World’s Most Wanted, says: “I thought he would never be caught.” A flashy dresser with a fleet of Porsches, Denaro…

Experts at the South China University of Technology explain their synthetic hydrogel patch successfully mimics the behavior of tunica albuginea, a fibrous sheath that is responsible for pumping blood into the male sex organ’s tissues.

HORROR flick actor Mark Patton is ravaged by AIDS and at death’s door in a Mexican hospital — and begging for help, say sources. The 63-year-old, who played Jesse Walsh in 1985’s A Nightmare on Elm Street 2, has been living South of the Border with hubby Hector Morales Mondragon, but now is battling the killer virus and hoping to raise enough money on a GoFundMe page to transfer to a U.S. medical facility. His manager Peter Valderrama revealed he’d raised $27,000 by Jan. 14. Ironically, Patton has been living on borrowed time. In 1998, his boyfriend was killed by AIDS and a year later, Patton, then 40, was given a year to live. But he miraculously beat the death sentence for decades thanks to improvements in treatments, say sources.…

PAUL NEWMAN cemented his leading-man reputation by playing a rebellious WWII vet stuck on a chain gang in the 1967 prison drama Cool Hand Luke. Perhaps the most famous scene is the one where he downs 50 hard-boiled eggs on a bet — with his fellow prisoners egging him on by massaging his throat to make him swallow the last few. But co-star George Kennedy wrote in his autobiography Newman ate only eight eggs while filming the scene — and threw them up off-camera!…

GENEROUS John Travolta is offering to do whatever he can to help late pal Lisa Marie Presley’s grieving loved ones — especially the tragic mom’s 14-year-old twins, Harper and Finley, sources spill. A source confides, “John can only imagine how devastating and bewildering this must be for her kids.” Lisa Marie, who was also mom to Zola actress Riley Keough, 33, had 60 percent custody of the teens, while their dad — Michael Lockwood, 61 — was granted the remaining 40 percent. Sources tell GLOBE the musician could become embroiled in a battle for the twins with Lisa Marie’s relatives. Meanwhile, the insider adds, “John’s making it known that if he can help by taking care of them — in person, emotionally, whatever — then he’s right there with open arms.”…

KATE BARES HER BIG NIPPLE SECRET We all now know JENNA BUSH HAGER doesn’t wear panties — thanks to her bigmouth tattletale Today co-host HODA KOTB — but here’s a titillating secret about GOLDIE HAWN’s movie star daughter, KATE HUDSON: She abhors wearing a bra and keeps “nipple covers” in her purse! Kate, 43, admits bringing the doohickeys “everywhere so, you know, nothing ever gets too aggressive.” BEADOR’S BROKER BEAU BREAKS HER ACHY HEART Real-life tears for Real Housewives of Orange County star SHANNON BEADOR, 58, who got dumped by her boyfriend of almost four years, JOHN JANSSEN, 59, right after shooting the Bravo series’ 17th season. “We were in a great place,” says the blindsided reality star. “But seven days later, when the cameras were down, it was a…

BOOZY bozo Tanner Watson went the extra mile during a field sobriety test in Ohio — by performing a backflip in a failed attempt to prove he wasn’t driving drunk, according to police. When Watson, 27, was pulled over for speeding, authorities say the stinker admitted to downing as many as four beers — but still insisted he was A-OK to be behind the wheel! The exchange was captured on an officer’s body camera, and in the recording a doubtful cop tells the suspect, “Your driving’s pretty bad. Your eyes are super glossy. I can smell booze coming from you, so I want to run some sobriety tests on you.” But after Watson is instructed to walk in a straight line, he instead volunteers to show off his gymnastic skills,…

MAFIA princess Victoria Gotti lost her 16-year fight to keep the lavish Long Island mansion featured in the reality show Growing Up Gotti when the property finally went into foreclosure for keeps! Real estate records show the gaudy digs were scooped up late last year when JP Morgan Chase National Bank made a $2.65 million offer that couldn’t be refused. Victoria, 60, nearly lost the opulent Old Westbury estate in 2007. After a two-year court battle, the TV personality told a judge she planned to pay off the pillared property’s financial obligations with part of her $7 million divorce settlement from mobbed-up ex-husband Carmine Agnello. The compound, which boasts a horse stable, basketball court and a pool with a swim-up bar, was first owned by Victoria’s notorious mafioso father, John…

A SHOCKING new rigging scandal is tarnishing Miss USA R’Bonney Gabriel’s claim on the Miss Universe crown after she won the competition in New Orleans last month. Critics are charging Gabriel, 28, was pre-picked to be the first Filipino-American Miss Universe because transgender Thai media mogul Anne Jakraju-tatip owns Miss USA and Miss Universe — and she played a hand in the beauty’s selection as Miss USA last fall. But Miss Universe pageant CEO Amy Emmerich slams the “rigging” charges, saying: “People saying that it’s ‘suspect’ JKN Global Group owns both Miss Universe and Miss USA aren’t familiar with the history of the organizations.” Jakrajutatip bought Miss Universe from JKN last year when she paid $20 million for the contest and Miss USA and Miss Teen USA pageants, which were…

VANDERBILT University scientists have determined the fearsome Tyrannosaurus rex had a genius-level IQ and carried the same number of brain cells as modern primates. Experts believe the dinosaur used tools, solved problems — and had culture! WHEN you pour a handful of salt into a glass of water, the level of the liquid actually goes down — not up! Try it. Very weird. MASKED Singer host and human baby factory Nick Cannon has nothing on President John Tyler, who served from 1841 to 1845. Tyler fathered 15 kids, the most of any commander-in-chief. So far, Nick has a dozen — and counting. EYEWITNESSES claim a Loch Ness–style monster surfaced in the waters off Atlantic Beach, S.C., last month! The mysterious creature was caught on camera. Some suspect the critter was…

A GLOWING UFO has been shot down by Russian anti-aircraft over a region infested by bizarre sightings and eerie encounters — and U.S. intelligence sources fear the wreckage could help Kremlin scientists reverse-engineer alien space technology! The War of the Worlds–style incident was so terrifying, panicked residents of Sultan Sala, near the Sea of Azov by the Russia-Ukrainian border, flooded the government with reports. The region’s Gov. Vasily Golubev was forced to issue a statement to calm residents and prevent chaos by noting the military was alerted to the UFO incursion. “I urge everyone to remain calm. To ensure security, all forces and means are involved. The sky is covered with anti-aircraft defenses,” Golubev said. While Ukrainian drones have been seen in the area, local news Pivyet Rostov reported the…

IT’S a new, overhauled bod for The View host SUNNY HOSTIN, who’s thrilled with results from a breast reduction and liposuction! “I thought I would feel shame, like, ‘Oh my God, I’m doing plastic surgery like all these crazy celebrities.’ But I don’t feel shame at all,” reveals the attorney turned TV panelist, 54, who’s gone from a size G bra cup to a more manageable C! “I feel like a better version of myself.” The ABC chatterbox calls her procedures “a health decision and self-care decision.” Sunny explains: “By the time I was 16, I was a double-D,” and “couldn’t imagine my breasts would get bigger with childbirth — however, they did.” After joining the morning gabfest in 2016, the mom of two wore “a minimizer bra and a…

DESPERATE to hide his aging as he preps for a 2024 White House run, Joe Biden, the oldest president in American history, has plunged into a secret series of nip/tuck fixes in a frantic attempt to convince the nation he’s younger than his 80 years! “The president has had a long list of procedures he believes will give him the appearance of a younger man,” snitches a Beltway insider. “But the only person he seems to be fooling is himself! “The cosmetic procedures are clearly a political move to help him make the public and colleagues believe he’s fit and hearty enough to run again in 2024 when he’ll be 82 years old. “Some people see it as shrewd — but most say it smacks of desperation!” GLOBE consulted a…

A FLORIDA town is being terrorized by invading iguana lizards that are sabotaging power grids and plunging residents into darkness! This winter, the scaly monsters, which can reach a scary six feet long, have triggered 16 blackouts in Lake Worth, a community just north of trendy Boca Raton, according to municipal mouthpiece Ben Kerr. “It’s so frustrating. These iguanas are a nightmare,” Kerr says. “We are doing everything in our power to correct the problem. We’re not just ignoring it.” Fed-up resident Susannah Amygdalitsis, who was one of 1,400 to suffer a blackout in December, says: “Some answer has to be devised to thwart these scaly chompers!” She notes the only solution seems to be cold winter temperatures, which put the lizards in a hibernation-type sleep and make them literally…

NIGHT Court star John Larroquette confesses he didn’t get a dime for his first acting gig — narrating 1974’s horror classic The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. He was paid in pot. Now reprising his role as public defender Dan Fielding in NBC’s reboot of the legal sitcom, former bartender Larroquette first met director Tobe Hooper in 1969 while working as a radio deejay. “Tobe asked for an hour of my time to narrate something for this movie he just did. I said, ‘Fine!’ It was a favor,” says John. When he finished recording, Larroquette says Hooper “gave me some marijuana. I walked out of the studio and said, ‘Good luck to you!’”…
