Her sordid new revelations include she suggested a throuple with Tom and his then-girlfriend, Ariana Madix, and she bedded her former BFF’s boyfriend while Ariana was at the funeral of her beloved granny! “I think that I’ve been lying and being so deceitful this entire time,” whines the 28-year-old reality star, whose fling with 39-year-old Tom is still in play. “Like, the worst is out, yet I’m still finding myself having to lie about specific timeline things!” The Vanderpump reunion did not pump the brakes on accusations, with Ariana, 37, tearing into…

EXPLOSIVE, newly released prison logs and reports from child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s last days prove the twisted billionaire blackmailer — who targeted the rich and the powerful — was murdered in his cell and DID NOT commit suicide, expert analysts say! But Epstein’s money trail — and the activities of his closest associates — have apparently been buried for keeps after a shocking sealed $290 million class action settlement between about 100 of the pedophile’s victims and JPMorgan Chase Bank, which kept his cash between 1998 and 2013 — seven years after he was convicted of hiring underage prostitutes in Palm Beach, Fla. The financial institution was accused of providing cover for Epstein’s kinky lifestyle by serving as his banker even though some employees were well aware of his…

JERKY Joshua Dummar is facing a domestic battery charge in Florida for striking his galpal in the face with a slab of meat, authorities say. The 29-year-old woman, whose name was withheld by cops, locked out her bickering beau after an argument at her Pinellas Park pad. But an arrest affidavit states once she allowed Dummar, 32, back inside, he “picked up a steak,” ambushed her on a couch and “smacked the victim two times” — “leaving seasoning” on her cheek! According to a sheriff’s deputy, the fat’s now in the fire for dumbass Dummar because a camera in the home captured the salty assault! Lawmen’s beef with the landscaper isn’t a rare occurrence. The suspect’s rap sheet includes convictions for DUI and possession of cocaine and marijuana.…

HOLY roller Rev. Pat Robertson painted himself as a soul-saving do-gooder, but before his death at 93 the televangelist partnered up in a get-rich scheme with one of the most bloody dictators in African history. The founder of TV’s cash-spinning 700 Club, who also ran for president against George W. Bush, was in cahoots with Liberia’s evil tyrant Charles Taylor — a monster convicted in 2010 of war crimes and crimes against humanity — who killed, enslaved, mutilated and raped countless numbers of his own people and others in next-door Sierra Leone. The monster racked up 100,000 victims during his brief but brutal five years as the country’s boss from 1998 to 2003. Taylor, now 75, is serving a 50-year sentence in an English slammer for his unspeakable crimes. But…

Licorice fights breast cancer ✚ HERE’S some sweet news — a recent study from researchers in Chicago suggests licorice may help prevent estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women! In lab tests, the licorice-derived compound liquiritigenin (LigF) suppressed the creation of disease-fueling estrogen in tissue samples from high-risk gals by suppressing aromatase, an enzyme responsible for the hormone’s synthesis in body fat. The scientists say LigF appears to have preventive qualities similar to existing pharmaceutical aromatase inhibitors — without the pills’ substantial side effects. Disinfectants are dangerous ✚ EXCESSIVE use of common disinfectants may cause more harm than good by spawning drug-resistant superbugs and endangering human health via exposure to dangerous chemical levels, experts say. Researchers at the California Department of Toxic Substances Control linked overuse of antimicrobials containing quaternary…

BOOMERANGING Wendy Williams has checked into a wellness center after her 22-year-old son, Kevin Hunter Jr., lashed out at her posse for “taking advantage” of the 58-year-old trainwreck and enabling her bad boozing habits! “Wendy is at a facility doing her best to be her best,” announced Kevin Will Selby, manager of the former chat show host. “She’s taking it day by day.” Wendy lost her show after 13 years on the air amid a crushing load of medical issues and absences. “There are a lot of people who are very aware that there is an issue with her drinking,” spouts son Kevin, but “whoever has been hired” to watch over his mom “are taking advantage of someone who needs to get better!”…

TODAY show stars Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb are back bickering over who’s getting the best treatment by bosses — and the bigwigs love the feuding because it fires them up to do better work, tipsters tattle. Bad blood’s now flowing after Savannah, 51, nabbed cushy travel gigs, most recently in Paris ahead of the 2024 Summer Olympics, while 58-year-old Hoda’s glued to her desk job. “Savannah is getting trips to Paris and other glamorous cities plus her expense accounts are limitless,” dishes an insider. “And she’s trilling about all the designer clothes they’re throwing at her. “It’s bugging Hoda, who has seniority and doesn’t get nearly as many perks.” Hoda joined Today in 2008 while Savannah hopped onboard in 2012. They’ve been teamed up since 2017. As GLOBE previously…

GEEKY songbird Susan Boyle has beaten the stroke that threatened to kill her career last April and returned to her roots — Britain’s Got Talent — to perform in triumph. The frumpy 62-year-old singer burst out of a shut-in life to become an international star following her 2009 stint on the talent show, but her success came crashing down with the medical crisis. But Boyle beat the odds and returned to the BGT stage June 4, singing her heart out after 14 grueling months of rehab. “She basically had to learn to sing, and talk, all over again,” notes a source. “But she says her voice is now as strong as ever.” The source adds the Scottish star delights in the trappings of her singing fame that has seen her…

AXED pundit Tucker Carlson’s attempt to restart his blow-hard career with a new Twitter show is being muzzled by his old bosses at FOX News, who whacked him with a “cease and desist” letter. Tucker on Twitter drew a combo of 169 million views for its first two episodes, but FOX charges he’s still under contract and being paid by them until Dec. 31, 2024 — and until then, he can’t open his yap for anyone else. However, his lawyer insists: “Tucker will not be silenced by anyone.”…

Following an exhaustive investigation, GLOBE can reveal special counsel Jack Smith’s shocking family ties to top Democrats, why he refuses to talk to the media, what he’s hiding from America, and why he teamed with Georgia D.A.

Meanwhile, Manhattan prosecutor Alvin Bragg, who indicted Trump for paying off a porn star, has a legion of skeletons in his closet!…

COUNTRY icon Garth Brooks has become tangled in a ferocious right-wing backlash by promoting Bud Lite beer after the company used sex swapper Dylan Mulvaney to help promote the suds. The 61-year-old cowboy plunged into the controversy by declaring he’s breaking the Bud Lite boycott and his new Nashville saloon, Friends in Low Places Bar & Honky Tonk, “will sell every brand of beer.” As GLOBE reported, self-styled macho man Kid Rock put out a video showing him blasting cans of Bud Lite with an AK-47 rifle as a protest to Mulvaney’s appearance on a Bud Lite can. Some fans slammed Garth on social media insisting they’re boycotting his music, just like the beer, which has lost 23 percent of its sales. But Garth says his bar will be a place where…

GLAM actress CHARLIZE THERON really threw herself into the role of serial killer Aileen Wuornos for the 2003 biographical crime drama Monster. She packed on 30 pounds, shaved her eyebrows, wore prosthetic teeth and uglified herself to play the real-life Florida prostitute who murdered her johns for money to support her lesbian lover! Although other actors have famously gained weight for roles, it was rare to see a beauty like Bombshell star Charlize monkey with her appearance so drastically — and she won a Best Actress Oscar for her troubles!…

HEARTSICK funny-man Bill Murray seems to be getting a lift in life by dating much-younger singer Kelis after finding they have something major in common — grief! The 72-year-old Ground-hog Day dude lost ex-wife Jennifer Butler in January 2021 at the tender age of 54. They were married for over a decade and had four sons together — Caleb, Jackson, Cooper and Lincoln — before she filed for divorce in 2008, claiming Bill was a violent horndog with addictions to sex, alcohol and weed.

CRANKY Pat Sajak’s luck ran out after 40 years on Wheel of Fortune when bosses decided the host’s wild card comments made him a massive liability — and forced him to announce his retirement, tipsters tell GLOBE. Sajak, 76, recently revealed the upcoming 41st season of the hit game show will be his last and called his tenure a “wonderful ride” — but sources dish the sudden decision wasn’t his doing! “Pat is being allowed to hang up his hat with dignity and say he’s leaving on his own terms.

But all the blunders and inappropriate moments over the past year…

Now, years after the show’s ratings sagged, the 54-year-old star’s getting it off her chest revealing an NBC honcho decided her interior designer TV character, Grace Adler, should “have big boobs” — and sent his creepy mammary mandate down an embarrassing chain of command! Yikes. “The very first fitting, they had the chicken cutlets to make me bigger,” reveals the actress, using the industry term for silicone bra inserts used to increase cup size. “I just wasn’t a fan of like the whole idea of it. I was like, ‘You know what? I don’t need that.’ And they’re like, ‘Well, it’s the president of the network [ordering it].’…

NOTORIOUS Unabomber Ted Kaczynski might not have gone on his explosive 18-year spree that killed three and injured 23 if he’d gotten laid, according to his letters where he confessed to being a virgin! Five months before he was captured in a remote Montana cabin hideout on April 3, 1996, the murderous math prodigy wrote to a galpal known as “Tess” he was a “devout practitioner of celibacy,” but “I’m through with depriving myself” with her. In the bombshell Dec. 10, 1995, letter — a GLOBE exclusive — the kooky killer wrote of his plans to visit Tess at her home in the Mormon stronghold of Salt Lake City, Utah. “I don’t care if it’s in the land of the Mormons, who frown on sex — except for procreation, of course,”…

CRIPPLED nun Teresa Agnes Gerlach is being booted into the streets from her convent — the only home she’s known for 25 years — by Texas Roman Catholic Bishop Michael Olson, who claims she had a steamy tryst with a priest. The 43-year-old mother superior at Arlington’s Monastery of the Most Holy Trinity, who went directly into the church from her Catholic high school, is wheelchair-bound and requires an IV drip following surgery, say sources. That didn’t stop Olson from banishing her on June 1 claiming she is “immoral” and violated her vow of chastity with a priest from another diocese. She insists it never happened. Her lawyer Matthew Bobo says she has 30 days to clear out and he’s whacked the bishop and diocese with a $1 million civil lawsuit…

LIVIN’ large Lizzo should be applauded for her body-positivity stance against fat-shamers — but experts warn she’s going off the rails by flaunting her massive bulk as if it’s something to be desired since obesity is a killer. As GLOBE reported last issue, the 35-year-old Truth Hurts singer proudly posted a photo of her huge behind, fat dimples and all, hanging out of a pink thong bodysuit saying she’ll “never beat the fat-ass allegations,” as if folks are lying about the size of her derriere. Meanwhile, her fans responded with a tidal wave of positive messages, one posting: “I love how you represent with confidence and your idgaf attitude is everything!” Another gushed: “I show my daughter your photos so she can see that you don’t have to be any…

ALL land-based dinosaurs died out in only nine months 65 million years ago. Evidence suggests the mass extinction was caused by climate change related to volcanic eruptions and a massive asteroid impact. CHEESECAKE was the ultimate comfort food on The Golden Girls — and the cast consumed more than 100 during the series. But Dorothy, played by Bea Arthur, rarely took a bite because the actress detested the dessert. CANNED foods were first invented by a Frenchman around 1800 — but it took decades for Yankee ingenuity to figure out an easy way to get at the grub. Connecticut resident Ezra J. Warner patented the can opener on Jan. 5, 1858. YOUR skull and your hips never stop growing! Septuagenarians’ pelvis bones are at least one inch wider than 20-year-olds,…
