STRESSED-OUT news gal Kate Snow admits she’s in therapy to deal with her challenging career and parenting during the pandemic — six months after nursing her husband through a bout with COVID-19! The NBC Nightly News Sunday anchor, 51, confesses she speaks with a counselor remotely by phone or video chat every couple of weeks. “I’m stressed. I mean really, very, totally stressed,” she writes in an online essay. “It’s not just the pandemic, the fear of disease and the isolation of the work-from-home thing, but trying to manage two teenagers and their schooling on top of a job that is quite demanding.” In April, Kate also revealed on social media her husband, radio host Chris Bro, had developed coronavirus symptoms, causing her to take a break from the broadcast.…

TROUBLED Kanye West has barely had sex with wife Kim Kardashian in nearly two years and is hiring a love doctor to fix things up, sources say. The 43-year-old rapper wants “to hire a spiritual guru who can hopefully help them get that physical spark back,” dishes a source. “He can’t stand a life without intimacy!” As GLOBE previously reported, sources contend Yeezy and Kim have been fighting like cat and dog for most of 2020, though they recently put on a united front for her 40th birthday party on Oct. 21. Apparently, the pair are sleeping in separate bedrooms, insiders dish, saying the reality babe has been turned off by Kanye’s rants, including a blistering attack on her mom, Kris Jenner. His flabby bod and constant junk food binges don’t…

A NEW blood test detects genetic mutations related to the growth of the most common adult brain tumors, say researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). According to the hospital team, they’ve developed a “liquid biopsy” to give doctors a minimally invasive, low-cost way to track the C228T and C250T gene mutations in existing tumors. Those rogue genes are present in more than 60 percent of tumors in the brain’s central and peripheral nervous system cells, which protect electrical impulse-transmitting neurons. At present, dye injection and MRIs are used to track tumor progress. Dr. Bob S. Carter, chief of Neurosurgery and co-director of the MGH Brain Tumor Center, suggests the new test can help gauge response to treatment and deliver early insight into any potential changes in the dangerous lumps.…

CAITLYN JENNER’S reality show was a boring bust axed after one season, but she’s getting a new shot at stardom playing a sex-swapper like herself in an upcoming sitcom, Duke of the Valley. The 71-year-old, who is dad to Kendall and Kylie Jenner and was an Olympic decathlon champ when she was a man named Bruce, will be a “white trash” transsexual living in an apartment complex along with main character Duke, a struggling actor played by Duke Van Patten, grandson of Eight Is Enough icon Dick. The show is a far cry from Caitlyn’s fantasy of playing a vampy comic book supervillainess. “In a Marvel movie, I want to play the baddest-ass lady you’ve ever seen in your life,” Jenner admits. “They got the wicked queen or the wicked…

AGING rock rooster Rod Stewart, 75, is striking a deal rather than face a trial and possible jail time over a New Year’s Eve punch he allegedly threw. As GLOBE reported in January, the Some Guys Have All the Luck geezer was charged with assaulting a security guard at The Breakers hotel in Palm Beach, Fla., after he and his family were barred from a private kiddie party. The hotel’s security footage seems to show Rod, in a glittery gold jacket, making a mock Nazi salute to the guard, 33-year-old Jessie Dixon. At the time, he pleaded not guilty to simple battery charges. All indications are this is going to resolve without a trial,” says Rod’s lawyer, Guy Fronstin, who requested a 45-day trial delay to finish a deal.…

The singer’s crooning online about her otherworldly retreat at Joshua Tree, led by a “doc” who claims to be an authority on UFOs, E.T. intelligence and initiating peaceful contact with alien civilizations. “I have dug deep into the science of consciousness and experienced not only peace and serenity like I’ve never known but I also have witnessed the most incredibly profound sightings both in the sky as well as feet away from me,” Demi dribbles, sharing photos and video of supposed UFO sightings. Proposing 1 percent of the world’s…

In addition to the hive, four of the gigantic buzzers — that can grow to two inches and deliver a sting that kills humans — were caught by Department of Agriculture officials.

Sources snitch the 48-year-old actor has returned from filming in Ireland exhausted and desperate for a change. “Things haven’t been too good between Ben and Ana, and the friction of two high-octane careers has taken its toll,” spills an insider. According to sources, the couple agreed to a trial separation while Ben was making The Last Duel overseas and Cuban cutie Ana, 32, got busy on photo shoots. “Their romance was great in the beginning when they were playing house in Pacific Palisades, but once they got back to work they started bickering,” reveals the insider. “Ana would call…

FORMER FOX News star Shepard Smith’s new CNBC show is laying a giant egg! Viewership for The News with Shepard Smith has dropped every week since it launched Sept. 30 — and sits at rock bottom of the 7 p.m. cable news ratings! During Shep’s last month at FOX — September 2019 — his 3 p.m. show averaged 1.3 million viewers. Now his average audience is a paltry 272,000! His heavily promoted show is even drawing fewer eyes than reruns of FOX Business show Lou Dobbs Tonight! CNBC insists it’s “pleased” with Shep’s results and it’s gotten “very positive feedback from viewers.” But Mediaite senior editor Joe DePaolo predicts Shep’s “new show is likely doomed. Completely, hopelessly doomed.” ›› I never forget a face, but in your case I’ll be…

AFTER years of living together, country hunk Blake Shelton finally popped the question to sexy songbird Gwen Stefani — and she said “yes!” — to make things official, sources say. The country superstars had been bickering for months over where to live and whether they should get hitched when, sources say, the 44-year-old The Voice judge got on one knee and ended the drama. “Everyone knows they’ve had a rocky 2020 but for all those differences Gwen and Blake are very much in love and committed to making this work for the long term,” an insider tattles. “They still have issues to iron out, but at least they can plan a wedding now and put the past problems behind them.” As GLOBE reported, the couple have struggled to adapt to their…

A FLORIDA man has been charged with killing his twin brother after the two “talked and joked” — then pulled pistols on each other! Thomas Parkinson-Freeman and his brother Mathias were sitting in a vehicle outside their home with a friend when Mathias drew a gun and pointed it at Thomas, according to cops. Thomas reacted by pulling out his own weapon, pointing it at Mathias and pulling the trigger, Gulfport police say. Mathias was “mortally wounded after being struck in the face,” according to police.

Police believe he wore the…

BITTER Cars rocker Ric Ocasek cruelly cut his model wife, Paulina Porizkova, out of his will even though she took care of him for the year right up until his death. Shortly after, the 55-year-old beauty was booted into the streets from his $10 million Manhattan townhouse. On Oct. 18, she tearfully wrote: “Beginning the process of letting go of things — letting go of thirty years — letting go of everything I’ve known — everything that made me feel safe.” The 75-year-old guitarist of hits Just What I Needed and Since You’re Gone turned bitter and felt “abandoned” by the stunning Czech model, who he was divorcing, even though she’d returned to watch over him after their 2018 split. “I have made no provision for my wife, even if…

AMERICAN Pie singer Don McLean is slamming ex-wife Patrisha Shnier as “the worst person I ever knew” — despite cutting a plea deal after being charged with beating her! One-hit wonder McLean spewed the venom in an interview with an Irish newspaper four years after his marriage to Patrisha exploded in spectacular fashion in January 2016 when she claimed she’d endured 30 years of abuse. Patrisha says she finally had enough when McLean “terrorized” her “for four hours” and told her, “I want to strangle you so bad!” The couple, who have two adult children, divorced soon after. Patrisha netted a $10 million settlement. McLean first claimed he was innocent — and his lawyer still insists the singer never physically assaulted his ex-wife. But McLean avoided jail and paid a…
