PRINCE HARRY’S bananas job title CHIMPO at a San Francisco mental health startup is making folks snicker in Japan — where the word is slang for penis! Nearly a year after Harry, 36, and wife Meghan, 39, ditched their royal duties, the Duke of Sussex — who’s now living in a Montecito mansion with his diva duchess and two-year-old son, Archie — accepted a job as Chief Impact Officer at Better Up Inc. But CHIMPO, the U.S. acronym for his corporate gig, hasn’t translated well overseas, and amused social media users roasted the redheaded royal for his crude handle! “Imagine if he came to Japan and introduced himself as a ‘chimpo’ to officials? I’d love to see their faces!” writes one. While another jokes, “So his role is Chief Pole…

A FORMER police chief in Kansas has been convicted of stalking his ex-wife. After a two-day trial, Brian Treaster was found guilty on April 14 of felony charges of stalking and criminal threat, along with misdemeanor counts of violating a protection order and battery by a Reno County jury.

HOTHEAD Debra Hunter will cool her heels in jail for 30 days after the blowhard deliberately coughed on a cancer patient last year in Florida — at the height of the coronavirus crisis! A Jacksonville judge also hit the windbag with a $500 fine and six months’ probation — and ordered her to participate in anger management class following her arrest for misdemeanor assault. Hunter is also on the hook for the cost of her victim’s COVID-19 test. According to an arrest warrant, Heather Sprague — who’s being treated for a brain tumor and has a compromised immune system — recorded foulmouthed Hunter, 53, arguing with staffers at a store in June 2020. Authorities say Hunter then made a rude gesture toward Heather, said she’d cough on her — and followed through on the…

BIGHEARTED Drew Carey is tip-top when it comes to Hollywood tippers — he’s been dropping whopping 200 percent gratuities! Sources snitch to GLOBE The Price Is Right host — who earns upwards of $12.5 million a year — feels compelled to spread his wealth, especially during today’s tough times. “Drew’s always had a reputation for being a big tipper, but during the pandemic he’s taking his approach up a notch and tipping in the range of 200 percent every chance he gets,” spills an insider. “He’s been lucky to be able to keep working when a lot of Hollywood has been shut down, but Drew has been laser-focused on the working people both in and out of his orbit. “When he orders takeout food, it’s pretty much a guarantee he’ll tip twice the amount…

GAINING lean muscle is possible with some simple diet and lifestyle changes, claims a dietitian from Down Under. Aussie Leanne Ward advises consuming adequate protein, doing strength-training exercises and getting enough shut-eye. But the expert from Brisbane says her “golden rule” is to eat from 20 to 30 grams of protein with every main meal — instead of scarfing down one “enormous amount” at the end of the day. “The body can only absorb and utilize a certain amount of protein at one time,” she explains. Ward also does not recommend the intermittent fasting fad and insists, “It’s not going to help you out.” But when it comes to workouts, Ward says, “Make sure you’re doing enough resistance training but not too much — more isn’t always better.”…

GAME show icon Pat Sajak added a gigantic flub to his recent bizarre behavior when he accidentally gave the answer away during a final bonus round on Wheel of Fortune. On the April 15 episode, as a contestant tried to fill out the phrase with the letters “---TE -RAN-L-,” the 40-year host of the crossword puzzle game show blurted: “Well, I’d rather be standing here than there, quite frankly.” Incredibly, the words “quite frankly” completed the puzzle.

THE H.G.
