LISA DILLON insists she’s “in turmoil” over married Star Trek skipper Patrick Stewart’s “shameless” memoir suggesting he never really loved her! Although the two remained on good terms after their 2007 breakup, Lisa says “the impression he gives is that our relationship was very fleeting — that I was a silly affair that broke up a marriage.” But she claims her five years with the Star Trek actor, then 62 to her 23, was “the most enduring friendship of my life. Or it was.”…

SONGBIRD Taylor Swift has fallen hard for football hunk Travis Kelce’s rugged charms, but insiders say some of his crude jock ways are starting to wear thin, especially his potty mouth and hygiene. The 34-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end dropped some more cuss words in a recent segment of his New Heights podcast with brother Jason, leaving prissy Taylor, 34, appalled, sources snitch. “Taylor adores Travis but wishes he wouldn’t use so many F-bombs,” spills an insider. “There are other expressions that would be less offensive, but Travis can’t seem to rid himself of the habit.” And his table manners could use help, too, blabs the source. “He shovels back his food so quickly and talks with his mouth open,” notes the snitch. “The more time they spend together,…

VICIOUS voodoo-crazed gangs are turning Haiti into an apocalyptic hellscape of terror and death in a bloody uprising that threatens to swamp America with fleeing migrants and leave an outlaw-run state just off the coast of the U.S.! Intelligence sources tell GLOBE the violence shows no signs of abating with an estimated 5,000 people dying in brutal street fighting and another 33,000 displaced from their homes. As many as 1.4 million Haitians are believed to be on the verge of starvation. Many of the bloodthirsty rebel bands are said to be using black magic to strike fear into the hearts of citizens. One gang leader — 400 Mawozo boss Wilson Joseph — has even taken to dressing like the voodoo spirit of the dead, Baron Samedi! “You’re seeing beheadings, ritualistic…

STAR Trek icon William Shatner has boldly gone where few have gone before — including getting shot into space — but there’s still one big regret plaguing the 93-year-old: how badly he FLOPPED as director of the 1989 turkey Star Trek V! “I failed,” he boldly brays. “My concept was Star Trek goes in search of God,” but he says the studio hated it. “I regret not being equipped emotionally” and leaving a “power vacuum” that got filled with other people’s boneheaded decisions!…

PRINCE HARRY has been dragged into a shocking $30 million lawsuit accusing music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs of throwing disgusting sex-trafficking parties at his mansions where guys and gals were abused. The Duke of Sussex is not accused of any wrongdoing, but record producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones claims Combs used his “access” to the royal to boost his influence with other celebrities. Diddy met Harry and his brother, William, at a party they hosted to thank him and others for their part in the 2007 Concert for Diana, a tribute to their late mom. Due to his link with Harry, Combs, 54, was able to attract many rich and famous people to his pervy parties, where hookers were recruited to have sex with guests, claims Jones’ lawsuit. Jones is asking…

A COLONY of adorable penguins at the Detroit Zoo is waddling into the nation’s heart via a viral video capturing them courting their mates with gifts of colored stones! On St. Patrick’s Day, zookeepers dumped a grab bag of multicolored “lucky charms” — pretty pebbles decorated by children using nontoxic paint — into the penguin pen to see what the aquatic cuties would do. Just as humans express love by putting a ring on it, the gentle gentoos, as well as some other types of penguin, demonstrate their amorous intentions by dropping a rock at the peachcolored Happy Feet of their black-and-white beloveds. The male gentoos made a mad dash for the treasure trove and carefully selected stones with just the right cut and clarity for their queens. TikTok immediately…

MONEYBAGS Kris Jenner has turned into a grouchy, cheapskate granny who refuses to spend time or dough on her 13 grandkids, moaning if she did they’ll leave her “broke.” The 68-year-old Kardashian momager is even griping she recently made a “mistake” by taking 14-year-old Mason, son of daughter Kourtney and her ex-beau Scott Disick, to dinner. Kris currently has 13 grandchildren ranging in age from 14 to five months. Four of her five daughters and son Rob Kardashian have all spawned. Model Kendall Jenner, 28, is childless. The Kardashian matriarch, who has no problem lavishing time and chunks of her $200 million fortune on toyboy lover Corey Gamble, 43, whines “getting to know” that many kids by spending quality time with them is too much effort — and too costly!…

SHOCKING new images of the notorious Loch Ness Monster have been trashed as an elaborate hoax by experts, who blast the dramatic photos as a pile of rocks, a hunk of driftwood or shadowy waves. Steuart Campbell, author of the acclaimed book The Loch Ness Monster: The Evidence, debunks the supposed photographic proof, saying the pics show “a typical wake-effect wave caused by a boat plowing through the waters of the Scottish lake some distance away. “Waves travel a long way on a calm surface,” he explains. “This is the predominant explanation for most reports of Nessie, who doesn’t exist.” Another expert, who has spent decades researching the phenomenon and has published articles on the subject, says the supposed monster caught on camera is likely only some driftwood floating around…

SELF-PROCLAIMED pastor Samuel Davalos Pasillas paid two dudes almost $40,000 to gun down his daughter’s boyfriend in California — but the unholy terror was arrested after the would-be hitmen simply wounded their target, authorities say. The gal’s injured beau — whose name was not released by investigators — drove himself to a hospital after being ambushed in Riverside. The bullet-riddled victim was driving his car around 7 p.m. on Oct. 21 when another vehicle pulled up alongside him and gunmen opened fire, striking him several times. Detectives say they found evidence Pasillas, 47, met with men he enlisted to rub out the Romeo. They also charge the disapproving dad conducted surveillance on his girl’s suitor in the weeks before the shooting — and told gunmen where to find him! “He…

PSYCHIATRIC disorders may one day be diagnosed with a simple blood test! Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they’ve identified a method of detecting disease-associated changes in the brain by analyzing genetic material found in extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the blood. The fatty sacs — which are released by all tissues in the body — contain messenger RNA reflecting the gene activity within their tissue of origin. The team’s study built on the institution’s earlier findings, which determined EV changes in pregnant women who go on to develop postpartum depression. An analysis of mRNA gespe As tion cific mRNAs in EVs were involved in certain functions of the organ. As a result, the scientists believe such mRNA could be ideal biomarkers for a variety of psychiatric conditions, including mood disorders…

TV’s cowboy king Kevin Costner is hankering to look his best after galloping back to the dating scene — so the aging stud plans to pin back his enormous elephant ears, tipsters tattle. The grumbling geezer, 69, has long loathed the look of his large lobes and tries to hide them whenever he can, sources snitch. “He managed to cover them up in Yellowstone, but the truth is they do protrude a bit — even under a hat,” dishes an insider. “He’s quite insecure about them — especially when people’s eyes go straight to that general area of his head. He’s finally gathered the courage to get them nipped and tucked.” According to the spy, Costner — who’s been linked to folk singer Jewel since splitting from Christine Baumgartner last year…

FOUR accused terrorists charged with slaughtering more than 137 people at a Moscow concert are wishing they were dead, too, instead of being caged in barbaric Russian prisons where fiendish torture and brutal gang rapes are part of official policy! Suspects Dalerdzhon Mirzoyev, 32, Saidakrami Rachabalizoda, 30, Shamsidin Fariduni, 25, and Mukhammadsobir Faizov, 19, got a blood-stained taste of Kremlin justice when they faced a judge — already badly battered and bruised — in Moscow’s Basmanny District Court just two days after the bloody March 22 massacre at Crocus City Hall. Teen Faizov was in such bad shape, he was in a wheelchair. Rachabalizoda’s head was bandaged after having his ear cut off — and being forced to eat it — during vicious interrogation by savage security cops. Gut-churning state…

SEXPOT Sharon Stone’s belief in astrology is fizzling after the starstruck beauty was told 2024 was going to be her year of love and the prediction hasn’t come true, sources tattle. Four months into the year, the 66-year-old Basic Instinct beauty’s phone has stayed silent while no new lover has come knocking on her door. Pals claim the blonde’s to blame because she rarely ventures out of the house where she could bump into a possible Romeo. “Now that her kids are pretty much grown and gone, Sharon would really like to have a meaningful relationship with someone new,” tattles a source. “But lately she’s gotten wrapped up in her love of painting, and that’s all she thinks about.” The Casino cutie grew up loving to paint, and her Aunt…

TRANSFORMERS sexpot Megan Fox is plunging ahead with even more cosmetic surgery including yet another boob job, while pals warn she’s already gone too far and needs to stop before disaster strikes! The 37-year-old Expend-4bles star — who admits suffering from body dysmorphia, or extreme anxiety over perceived body defects — just confessed to a third boob job and reveals she wanted to go even BIGGER. Right now her breasts are “a 32D, which is not that big,” insists the mom of three. “They just look big ’cause my body’s tiny … but I would have had [the plastic surgeon] go bigger.” Megan, who just called off her engagement to stringbean rapper Machine Gun Kelly, 33, has also copped to a nose job and wants a facelift, too. “She’s been…

MANY experts believe COVID was developed in a Chinese bioweapons lab where it accidentally leaked out to infect the world, and now a bombshell report reveals similar blunders — that could have spread dangerous diseases across the U.S. — have been covered up at a Colorado facility. Chilling files reveal 50 safety errors — including workers who were bitten by a COVIDcarrying hamster, getting smeared in blood from tuberculosis-infected rats and being scratched by cats with rabies — occurred at a government-funded lab at Colorado State University from 2020 to 2023. Just as scary, a worker was bitten by a bat infected with a COVID-like virus while putting the critter back in its cage in 2022! The series of bungles involving disease-infected critters at the taxpayerfunded site was uncovered and…

And the new data reveals the tearful tuskers bury their fallen friends and hold funerals and death watches at elephant graveyards!

JEFFREY EPSTEIN’s monster madam Ghislaine Maxwell — a convicted child sex trafficker — has been transferred to cushy quarters in a federal prison, the latest outrage in her revolting story. It’s also probably another example of rich man’s justice since the British socialite’s worth at least $20 million and is appealing her 20-year sentence for pimping out kids. As GLOBE reported, late media tycoon Robert Maxwell’s heiress daughter, 62, was moved from the dirty “snake pit” unit of her Tallahassee, Fla., lockup to the “honor” dorm, where she’s likely to have her own room and is safe from brutal inmates. Sources say Ghislaine got the transfer by repeatedly haranguing prison officials about disgusting conditions in the lockup, but let’s face it, she’s got a fortune and money talks. But the…
