ONLY IN GLOBE THE MOST EXCLUSIVES EVERY WEEK! FRESH from winning a savage real-life game of thrones, cruel Camilla is twisting the knife in rival Kate’s back by forcing the humiliated beauty’s common-born parents to use the servants’ entrance when they visit Kensington Palace! But the insults don’t stop there! Camilla is also forcing Kate to curtsy whenever they meet — a sign of inferior social rank — after her hubby, William, lost the title of king-in-waiting when dying Queen Elizabeth suddenly decided to pass the crown to her oldest son, Charles. “Camilla can’t stop gloating and is determined to make Kate’s life a nightmare,” a palace insider tells GLOBE. “She intends to ‘utterly humiliate’ William’s wife and ‘knock that common-born bed-warmer down a few pegs!’” For starters, Camilla —…

FUNNYMAN Jerry Lewis was obsessed and embarrassed by one movie until the day he died — his disgraceful, neverreleased Holocaust flick, The Day the Clown Cried! Lewis not only wrote, directed and starred in the 1972 film about a clown who criticized the Nazis and ended up entertaining children in a concentration camp — he put his own money up to make it! But Lewis was completely tone-deaf about the drama, and when it was screened, the cast and crew were aghast at the offensive four-hankie film. One screenwriter on the project called it “a disaster.” Actor Harry Shearer called it “a perfect object” of awfulness, adding: “It’s not funny, and it’s not good.” Embarrassed, Lewis permanently shelved the drama. “There’s not a day of my life when I don’t…

A BRUTAL thug will spend the rest of his days rotting in jail for masterminding a plot to force bank executives to swipe thousands of dollars while he and an accomplice kidnapped the bankers’ families and threatened them with death! Career criminal Michael A. Benanti, 45, of Lake Harmony, Pa., was given four consecutive life sentences, plus another 155 years in federal prison for his violent yearlong reign of terror in Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and North Carolina. Benanti and 47-year-old Brian Witham — who met in prison in the ’90s — used social media and hidden cameras to scope out the homes of several bankers, learn their daily routines and choose the right time to strike. Then the twisted, gun-toting fiends rushed in on their victims and threatened to killer…

+ TREATING post-traumatic stress disorder with medical marijuana may make symptoms worse! A study by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs found using pot to treat PTSD increased some of the symptoms caused by the condition. Researchers, who looked at results from 47,000 veterans who battled PTSD from 1992 to 2011, also found only 28 percent of patients who used medical marijuana for pain relief felt a change. Meanwhile 16 percent reported a change when taking a placebo! Scientists say more studies are needed.…

SEXY ‘60s British actress Jenny Hanley says Warren Beatty brazenly let himself into her hotel room — but she gave him the heave-ho! Beatty zoomed in on the star while she was in New York promoting The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes. “I didn’t like him,” she recalls. “He wasn’t pleased when I called the manager to remove him.” Hanley remembers Warren saying, “Spend one night with me and you’ll never want to go home.” “But I told him, ‘Just go, sunshine. I’m British. We don’t do that.’ ”…

ACTRESS WELCOMES GH RETURN BRYTNI SARPY, who joined the General Hospital ranks in March 2015 as sexy police officer Valerie Spencer, was dropped from contract status late last year — but she’s upped her air time in recent weeks. “Valerie being back is good!” she says, crediting the show’s new writing team with being “a little more interested in Valerie’s story again. I think it’s one of those things where people have to be inspired. Writing for Valerie is an art, and I’m just glad that inspiration was refound.” Sarpy didn’t stress about her GH status. “I wasn’t that worried,” she shrugs. “I took a breather and got to invest my time in other things and I think that time [away] gave me a fresh approach to these new scenes.” Y&R…

ONLY IN GLOBE WILY President Barack Obama covered up the loss of $260 BILLION in gold from the Federal Reserve that would have spiked a galloping inflation, ruined the country’s finances and wrecked his presidency. That’s the explosive charge from a D.C. insider over money managers’ concerns tons of gold may have vanished from the Federal Reserve — and the ex-president hushed the disappearance up. John Embry, formerly with Sprott Asset Management in Toronto, says strange fluctuations in the price of gold are the key clue that a central bank has to have been “spewing their gold into the market.” Sources believe the Fed secretly sold off the bullion from the Federal Reserve’s facility in Manhattan, that supposedly stores 6,200 tons of gold, worth $415 billion, in a vault 80…

IRWIN KILLED HIMSELF BY YANKING BARB OUT OF HEART A SHOCKING bootleg video of tragic Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin in the throes of death after his heart was pierced by a stingray’s barb reveals the TV daredevil could have survived his horrific injury, says a top medical expert. After studying the video, copied under suspicious circumstances from the original film shot by Irwin’s crew, Dr. Gabe Mirkin tells GLOBE the 44-year-old animal wrangler unwittingly hastened his demise by yanking the barb out of his chest. “The stingray tail effectively acted as a plug — and the second he removed it, he bled to death,” says the doc, who never treated the hero. “Steve Irwin didn’t have to die.” The adventurous star, who was famed for grappling with giant snakes and…

THE results of summer fun are becoming clear with a parade of pregnancy announcements. ROBIN THICKE, 40, is expecting with gal pal APRIL LOVE GEARY, 22.

LEGALLY Blonde star Reese Witherspoon returns to her romcom roots this fall with Home Again. But the 41-year-old mother of three has added to her résumé by producing Gone Girl and HBO’s Big Little Lies as well as running the clothing company Draper James. Here are ten things you don’t know about Reese. 1 She was born Laura Jeanne Reese Witherspoon on March 22, 1976, in New Orleans. 2 Military brat Reese spent her first four birthdays in Wiesbaden, Germany, before moving back to the U.S. 3 As a child, she was a highly driven student at the prestigious Harpeth Hall School for Girls in Nashville, causing her parents to nickname her Little Miss Type A. 4 At seven, Reese modeled for an advertisement for a flower shop owned by…

HIGH FASHION FELON! MRS. AMERICA HUMILIATED! A DISGRACED Mrs. America beauty queen can add a new title to her résumé — convicted felon — for returning old, stained clothing items to a department store, pretending they were pricey designer duds! The fraudulent fashionista, Jennifer Kline of Wayzata, Minn., ran a rags-to-riches scam that swindled a Macy’s in Minnesota’s Mall of America for more than $5,500! The 1988 Mrs. America Pageant winner — who was also a host on home shopping channel ShopNBC, which is now known as Evine — removed the labels and price tags from newly purchased garments and attached them to soiled, worn items in November 2015. Kline, 51, then had the nerve to return the damaged goods, presenting her receipts for the high-fashion items and raking in…

DEVASTATED Dolly Parton is masking her secret pain over never becoming a mother — by finally making a children’s album, say pals of the crushed country legend. Her upcoming Oct. 13 album, I Believe in You, features 13 songs Dolly penned for the sandbox set — but the project sent the 71-year-old star through a whirlwind of difficult emotions, says a friend. “It was bittersweet for Dolly to make this record,” a confidant confesses, noting a partial hysterectomy in 1984 at age 38 dashed Dolly’s hopes of ever having a baby. “Some songs, she thought about her little grandnieces and grandnephews, but sometimes ... she imagined she was writing a song for a child she never had. “Not having a child to call her own is the one big hole…

DIETING may be a thing of the past — thanks to a revolutionary headset that promises to trick your body into slimming down, even if you never change what you eat! The cutting-edge device, called Modius, uses electrical pulses to stimulate the vestibular nerve, which runs into the brain from just behind the ears. Its inventors say the low-power zaps fool the brain into thinking the body is being more physically active than it is. They claim that with only an hour of use a day, people can boost their metabolism and burn up to 16 percent of their body fat! “Weight gain and weight loss are controlled by your brain, which controls your appetite, your hormones, your metabolic rate, how much fat you store and more,” says co-inventor Dr.…

A SHORTAGE of a brain chemical that helps regulate sleep, mood, appetite and other functions may be the cause of Alzheimer’s disease! The chemical, a neurotransmitter called serotonin, has been linked to Alzheimer’s after studies found low levels of the substance corresponded with high levels of amyloid plaque — a protein associated with the disease. Research carried out by Gwenn Smith, a psychiatry professor at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, examined the levels of serotonin in the brains of 56 participants. Using positron emission tomography (PET) scans, Smith and colleagues looked at 28 patients with symptoms of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and 28 healthy adults. Scans found participants with MCI had up to 38 percent less serotonin than healthy participants of the same age. The findings suggest the…

Taking vitamins without knowing the correct doses can do more harm than good. The National Academy of Sciences says correct dosages may vary with age and sex. The table below illustrates the NAS’ recommendation for a 40-year-old woman FOLKS pop vitamin pills and mineral supplements thinking they’ll ward off colds and other illnesses, but they’re wrong — sometimes DEAD wrong! That’s because vitamins can make you sick — and the antioxidant beta-carotene may actually increase cancer risks, according to experts! But since greedy vitamin manufacturers rake in billions of dollars a year selling pills, they stay quiet about these facts: ▪ Some pills contain dangerous fillers that can have serious side effects. ▪ Many vitamin supplement companies are unregulated — so you don’t know what you’re getting! ▪ Recommended daily…

NICOLE KIDMAN’S been caught in a big little lie! When it comes to cosmetic proceedures, the 50-year-old Oscar winner claims: “No surgery for me!” To see if she’s telling the truth, GLOBE submitted these telltale beforeand- after photos to world famous plastic surgeon Dr. Leslie Stevens for his analysis. Stevens — who has a slew of celeb clients but never treated Nicole — concludes she’s had a laundry list of procedures. When taken together with another few hundred thousand dollars in makeup — the cost soars to a whopping $1 MILLION! Here’s a rundown of what Stevens says she’s done: TEETH — $63,200 “Nicole’s had corrective surgery on her ‘gummy’ smile, fixed her crooked teeth, and I believe she had braces and possibly veneers for a balanced smile.” FILLERS —…

GUARDIAN ANGEL DEAD COPPERHEAD LUCKY TO BE ALIVE HEROES come in all shapes and sizes — but none are more courageous than plucky pooches Paco and Slayer! The sharp-eyed pit bulls were outside with Melissa Butt’s grandchildren, Zayden, 4, and Mallory, 1, when they started barking up a storm. “Generally, they will come when called,” explains Melissa, who lives in Brandon, Fla. “But they weren’t. They were just standing there, barking.” That’s when Melissa spotted a fat, venomous copperhead snake just a few feet away from the kids! In a flash, the snake struck — biting nine-month-old Paco’s leg. With that, Slayer jumped into action. “My Slayer takes over all of those situations,” says Melissa. “He’s ultra-protective of the family.” The fearless tail-wagger grabbed the snake in his mouth, killing…

CANADIAN cutup LESLIE NIELSEN spent three decades starring in serious dramas before finding his calling in comedy with the low-budget — and lowbrow — 1980 disaster-movie parody Airplane! A master of deadpan acting, Nielsen took his earnest baritone and clueless demeanor to the small screen with Police Squad! This on-the-set 1982 picture captures the short-lived sitcom’s absurd humor, which spawned the wildly funny Naked Gun movies, starring Nielsen as moronic cop Lt. Frank Drebin. Leslie died in his sleep at age 84 in 2010 from pneumonia, having appeared in more than 100 movies and 1,500 television episodes, playing more than 220 characters. Film critic Roger Ebert called the actor “the Laurence Olivier of spoofs.” We like to think Olivier was the Nielsen of drama!…

MASTECTOMY FEARS FOR AGING LEGEND BIOPSY BOMBSHELLBOMBSHELL ONLY IN GLOBE AGING screen sweetheart Goldie Hawn left a medical office building with a massive bandage on her left boob, triggering fears among friends and a medical expert that she could be suffering from lethal, savaging breast cancer. Dr. Gabriel Mirkin tells GLOBE he is “certain” the 71-year-old Private Benjamin star “underwent a breast biopsy” to test for the killer condition. Mirkin, who has not treated the actress, also notes “one in eight women suffer breast cancer in America, and at her age — it is certainly a significant threat to her.” Meanwhile, close friends say the aging Cactus Flower beauty is fearful her final curtain call is near. “Goldie has always been so full of life, but she must be terrified…

CANADIAN songbird Shania Twain thought her career was over ten years ago! Rocked by severe dizzy spells that nearly sent her crashing off stage — and the inexplicable loss of her voice — Shania panicked. “I was sure I’d never sing again,” confesses the 52-year-old country-pop superstar. But doctors discovered a tick bite left Shania with debilitating Lyme disease and dysphonia, a vocal cord disorder. “They put five long needles in my larynx,” she says. “There’s one nerve to each vocal cord and both were atrophied.” She underwent months of grueling treatment, followed by extensive speech therapy and vocal training. Her new album, Now, recounts her struggles — including her 2010 divorce from producer Robert “Mutt” Lange, who left her for her best friend. “I wasn’t just broken, I was…

KIM KARDASHIAN confessed to shoplifting during an online video made to plug her new makeup product — and outed childhood pal Nicole Richie as her accomplice! “I actually stole a lipstick once from Rite Aid,” admits the sticky-fingered star. “We didn’t get in trouble. We didn’t get caught.” The devious duo were around 11, Kim recalls. “We went into a drugstore in Malibu and took lipstick. We thought we were so badass!.” Lock her up! ›› Keep that positive outlook, to keep that energy, to know that there is more. There’s always something new and something more you can accomplish. And the fact that my children are so young and their life is just starting makes me think, ‘It’s just the beginning!’ — Jennifer Lopez…

+ THE risqué business of grooming pubic hair is also a risky business! A report by the American Medical Association says a quarter of pube trimmers in the study suffered injuries — and 1.4 percent required surgery or antibiotics. Letting others manicure your pubic hair was the biggest danger — leading to cuts, burns and rashes. Men reported more scrotum injuries than penile ones, while women had a high number of injuries to the pubis. Damage to the inner thigh and vagina was also common.…

STICK-THIN! THE LEGENDS YOU LOVE EVERY WEEK! SCARECROW-SKINNY Diane Keaton looks like she’s on her last legs! The 71-year-old Oscar winner limped painfully around a movie set recently — and GLOBE can reveal the five-foot-seven star has plummeted to a shockingly low 115 pounds! “Diane has lost so much weight since this time last year,” a pal spills to GLOBE. “She just doesn’t look healthy. She’s rail-thin and she looks ravaged by old age. “She’s nothing but skin and bones — as though she’s totally lost interest in food!” Now friends fear the beloved Annie Hall star could be in the midst of a major health crisis! “Many believe there’s something really wrong with Diane, and that she could be suffering from some illness,” adds the pal. “She has several…

TELEVISION’S obsession with reviving old properties is showing signs of backfiring — and media insiders worry the nostalgiacrazy strategy is a dangerous game! Although revamped favorites like Roseanne, Will & Grace and Dynasty generate high hopes — real ratings on reboots have been scary! “So far remakes have been a flop. The X-Files didn’t bump up FOX’s viewing numbers the way bigwigs had hoped — and Twin Peaks has been a ratings disaster for Showtime, not even able to drum up 1,250,000 viewers near its end, while Game of Thrones grabbed more than 10 million for HBO.” The sitcom revivals are a risky play — especially at a time when viewers are flocking to dramas! One insider says the comedies risk confusing viewers. “Look at Roseanne — they’d killed off…
