HELICOPTER moms Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin are in legal hot water after being charged by the FBI for paying bribes to get their teenage daughters’ into top colleges! Desperate Housewives star Felicity, 56, and the Full House beauty, 54, were among more than 40 people indicted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Operation Varsity Blues, the feds’ name for a nationwide college entrance exam scam. The actresses were charged with conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud in March 12 indictments and face up to five years in the slammer if convicted. A Tinseltown insider says the cheating “is as much about Felicity and Lori’s own need to succeed as it is about their daughters.

WEALTHY tennis queens Serena and Venus Williams are tangled in a shameful scandal involving their stroke-crippled dad, Richard, amid charges he was swindled out of hundreds of thousands of dollars and his Florida home. At the center of the Palm Beach County court battle is the players’ stepmom, Lakeisha Williams, 77-year-old Richard’s estranged 39-year-old third wife. Richard charges she hired someone to impersonate him and then forged his signature on a deed so she could borrow nearly $300,000 from moneyman David Simon, using Richard’s home as equity so she could start a trucking business. In court documents, Richard, who uses a wheelchair and needs his son Chavoita LeSane to interpret his speech after suffering two devastating strokes, charges Lakeisha with “manipulating and exploiting a vulnerable and easily confused adult.” He…

MORE than 700 “severely neglected” dogs were rescued from “out of control and inhumane” conditions at a vile puppy mill in Georgia, say police who plan to make the filthy facility’s owner feel the bite of the law! Nashville native Reason Craig Gray, 58, was booked on charges of animal cruelty and obstruction, according to the Berrien County Sheriff’s Office.

CUTTING comic Roseanne Barr blames Michelle Obama for getting her sacked from her ABC show! The brash Roseanne star — who was axed last year after her racist Twitter rant likened black woman and Obama pal Valerie Jarrett to an ape — claims the former first lady told then-network president Channing Dungey to send her packing! “She said, ‘This tweet is unforgivable.’ That’s what I was told,” insists the 66-year-old loudmouth. “I tend to believe it because the woman who fired me is now working with the Obamas at Netflix,” Barr adds. Dungey resigned from ABC in November 2018 and weeks later signed with the streaming service as vice president of original content — six months after Netflix made their blockbuster production deal with Michelle and former President Barack, which…

SCANDAL-scarred Michael Jackson denied he brutally beat his pet chimp Bubbles, but workers at the animal haven where the critter lives say he goes ape if he sees a picture of the singer. Bubbles, now 35, was given to a trainer after he became “too big and aggressive” for Michael in 2003. Two years later, he went to his current home, Florida’s Center for Great Apes. Four years ago, monkey expert Dr. Jane Goodall irked Jackson’s kin and fans by charging the Beat It singer abused Bubbles. She claims the singer also denied hurting the chimp when she confronted him before his 2009 death. But Jack Gordon, exhubby of Michael’s sister La Toya, says the Thriller star was cruel. “I saw Michael punch Bubbles in the face and kick him…

HAGGARD George Clooney is being tortured by blinding headaches and searing back pain, say insiders who fear the sickly star may not live to see his babies grow up! The frighteningly thin 57-year-old — who became a first-time father on June 6, 2017, when wife Amal gave birth to twins Ella and Alexander — experienced a devastating spinal injury while shooting 2005’s Syriana, which left him in so much agony, he considered suicide! Though George eventually got back on his feet, an insider says the actor’s back was re-injured — and his suffering intensified last July, after he was struck by a car while riding a scooter in Italy. “His body has taken a lot of punches over the years, but this is horrible pain and there are some days…

ABC executives were terrified viewers would think The Odd Couple — starring TONY RANDALL as fussy photographer Felix Unger and JACK KLUGMAN as slob sportswriter Oscar Madison — was about two gay men shacking up in New York. Network brass went out of their way to announce the guys were “divorced” in the weekly opening sequence — so jokesters Randall and Klugman would ad-lib homoerotic lines during shooting. It was the 1970s and producers didn’t find it funny — so the scenes were always cut.…

WILDLIFE biologist Jeannette Parker was bitten by a stray cat near Florida’s Everglades National Park — and got a $48,512 bill from privately owned Mariners Hospital in Tavernier for a rabies shot and exam that didn’t even require a doctor. The hospital stands by its billing, which included a $46,422 fee for rabies vaccine, which costs about $361 a milliliter! “My funeral would’ve been cheaper,” Jeannette says. A FIVE-bedroom, six-bath Las Vegas home — complete with a guest house, pool, spa, manicured lawn and trees — has been listed for sale at $18 million.
