COUNTRY geezer Garth Brooks is blowing big bucks on his looks to fight the ravages of time and polish his tarnished image as he fights a civil sexual assault suit, sources spill. The Friends in Low Places singer, 63, appeared ultra-groomed while performing with wife Trisha Yearwood at the funeral service for former President Jimmy Carter in Washington, D.C., Jan. 9 — and critics were quick to point out his polished presentation. “Garth spends hours getting ready for anything these days,” tattles a tipster. “He’s spray-tanning to give himself a healthy glow and he’s dyeing his hair and beard to the point of obsession. “He loves the beard and keeps it perfectly shaped. He thinks it camouflages the pudginess in his face — and he may have a point.” According…

Speaking of attending an event there, Sir Charles, once known as the “Round Mound of Rebound” for his porky shape, spouted, “I’m not going to that rat-infested place … San Francisco is not a beautiful city! Rats. Cats… Y’all are not gonna make me like San Francisco.” Last year, Barkley slammed the city as full of “homeless crooks,” saying, “You can’t even walk around down there” without a “bulletproof vest.” The year before, when he was in Dallas, where it was raining, he squawked that the rain was needed “in San Francisco to clean up…

CUCKOO cougar Cher is so completely crazy about her boytoy Alexander “A.E.” Edwards that she has no time for anyone or anything else in her life, sources tell GLOBE! “She’s terrified he could drift away if she’s not with him any chance she gets, so she’s clinging to him as though her life depended on it,” an insider says of the 78-year-old diva, who has been dating the 38-year-old music man since 2022. “She’s driven by insecurity, so her world revolves around A.E. and what he’s doing. She’s given him a key to her place and when he shows up, plans almost always get dropped. It’s maddening for everyone else in her life, but she seems unwilling, or unable, to change this toxic pattern,” dishes a spy. The If I…

IN CASE you’re wondering why KEVIN COSTNER would sink $38 million of his personal wealth into a major flop like Horizon: An American Saga, maybe it’s because he remembers how well his bet paid off in 1990, when he poured his own moolah into Dances With Wolves! The frontier Western, in which director and producer Costner also stars as John J. Dunbar, a Union Army first lieutenant who winds up befriending the Sioux, went on to win many Oscars, including Best Picture. And the money from that movie poured in — as opposed to Horizon, whose first installment grossed less than a third of its $100 million budget.…

MEAT DRESS–wearing diva Lady Gaga has undergone a massive make-UNDER at the direction of her conservative businessman fiancé, Michael Polansky! According to sources, the formerly freaky-looking singer, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, has considerably toned down her outrageous act and outfits to better suit the philanthropist’s all-business image. “Michael is a successful entrepreneur and a Harvard graduate who majored in applied mathematics and computer science, so he and his friends and business colleagues are quite conservative,” spills a source close to the couple. “He made it clear that it would mean the world to him if she reined in the racy image so that they could at least look like they’re attending the same parties!” Sources say Michael, 41, will be involving Gaga, 38, in more of his business…

ARIANA GRANDE’s bony new bod has alarmed fans and medical experts, but if her skeletal appearance is part of an obsession with the late slender screen icon Audrey Hepburn — as a source told GLOBE — the Wicked beauty should think twice! Miami plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Salzhauer, who has not treated Grande, nixed the theory that her skin-and-bones figure is thanks to the vegan diet she went on in 2013, but agrees she’s “scary thin.” “If you look in her temple region, you can see it is hollowed out in Ariana, which happens when you have malnutrition or wasting. It is concerning when you see that,” the doc dishes. “I don’t think it’s veganism per se. I know some larger vegans — so I do wonder whether there is…

STRAIGHT-SHOOTING President Donald Trump is unlocking the U.S. government’s vault to release long-hidden files about the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., along with shocking alien evidence at Area 51, sources spill. Hours before taking office, Trump vowed to end decades-long cover-ups — and announced his intention to disclose the National Archives documents “as the first step toward restoring transparency and accountability to government!” Trump told a cheering crowd in Washington, D.C., that he planned to make public the hush-hush records about the gunshot murder of President Kennedy in 1963 as well as those of the slain leader’s brother RFK and civil rights champion MLK in 1968. Administration sources say Trump’s bold edict also extends to federal programs tasked with harvesting crashed…

A WAITING trial on ugly sexual assault charges, massive pudgeball Gérard Depardieu looks like a heart attack waiting to happen, while sources say the French acting icon fears he won’t live to gobble another eclair if he’s jailed and a medical expert warns he’ll croak if he doesn’t get help NOW! The 76-year-old supersized star faces up to five years behind bars and a $80,947 fine if convicted of the sex charges and “knows he couldn’t survive on prison food,” spills an insider. “Gérard has lived this pampered existence and gorged on gourmet food and alcohol, and it’s one of the reasons he’s trying to postpone proceedings. “There’s a very real threat to his life if he’s locked away!” An estimated 20 women have accused the Man in the Iron…

BANANAS are berries, but strawberries aren’t! Bananas make the cut because they develop from a single flower with one ovary. YOU already know that octopuses have eight legs — but did you know they also have three hearts? Two pump blood to the gills, and one pumps it to the rest of the body.
