A BEAUTIFUL Mafia princess is breaking the underworld code of silence to reveal the violent hell of being raised by a ruthless hit man, who would pound her boyfriends to a pulp and rub out any man who disrespected her! As a kid growing up in New York, Linda Scarpa had no idea her father Gregory “The Grim Reaper” Scarpa was the Colombo crime family’s most feared and vicious enforcer. But when she started dating, Linda learned the truth the hard way! In her book “The Mafia Hit Man’s Daughter,” Linda, now 46, details how her father and his wiseguy pals tracked down her first boyfriend, Greg Vacca, after she came home from a date stoned on marijuana. “They just friggin’ pulverized me,” says Greg, who wound up with a…

GLOBE’S NO-NONSENSE OPINION PAGE GLOBE columnist Jeff Rodack tells it like it is about celebrities — how they get under his skin with their stupid antics and the nonsense they try to put over on the public. Here is his unique take on Hollywood newsmakers and fakers. How the hell do you compare a woman cop, who tragically gave her life rescuing hundreds from the exploding Twin Towers on Sept. 11 to Bruce “Caitlyn” Jenner, who got fake boobs and switched to girlie panties? You don’t! But that’s exactly what the damn fools at “Glamour” magazine did! Courageous cop Moira Smith was posthumously given one of the mag’s Women of the Year awards a month after she died pulling people out of the South Tower. And now “Glamour” has turned…

NASCAR superstar Jeff Gordon ended his 24-year racing career to save his marriage! That’s the real reason behind the four-time NASCAR champ’s decision to retire after this season’s final race — but it’s not news to GLOBE readers! We reported in our Feb. 9, 2015 issue (right) that Jeff, 44, promised his model-wife, Ingrid Vandebosch, 45, he’d climb out of the No. 24 car even though he’s still at the top of his game! “Ingrid’s been scared to death about Jeff driving for the past couple of years,” says a source. “There are more and more feuds being played out on the track, and racing in NASCAR is more dangerous than ever. “Ingrid told Jeff, ‘If you love our family, now is the time to walk away!’” The Hall of…

TV CHEFS’ FOOD FIGHT Travel Channel expert ANTHONY BOURDAIN really burns TV chef GUY FIERI’s biscuits! After years of cheap shots from the “No Reservations” frontman about his blond spiked hair, the Food Network’s Fieri is branding Bourdain a boor who doesn’t have the guts to “talk s--t to my face!” But big-mouthed Bourdain insists poking fun at other celebrity foodies is “what I do” and says if “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives” star Fieri can’t take the heat, he should get out of the kitchen! Food fight! OLIVIA’S WEARING OUT HER WELCOME! Green Bay Packers football fans are blaming quarterback AARON RODGERS’ subpar performances on his gal pal, actress OLIVIA MUNN!

Hillary’s daughter gets plastic surgery to look like Bill, not REAL dad —White House aide says CHELSEA Clinton underwent a series of secret plastic surgery procedures in a desperate attempt to hide the fact she is NOT Bill Clinton’s real daughter, a former top White house aide claims! Best-selling author Roger Stone, who served as an advisor to President Richard Nixon, is blowing the lid off the 35-year coverup in his blockbuster new book, “The Clintons’ War On Women.” Stone claims Chelsea was conceived during Hillary’s secret affair with disgraced Clinton crony Webster Hubbell, a lawyer and once close Clinton family friend. Hubbell served time for defrauding legal clients and evading taxes. He was also Hillary’s law partner at the prestigious Rose Law Firm in Little Rock, Ark., at the…

JESUS wept. A Florida church usher turned out to be a real Judas after being caught red-handed stealing from the collection plate! Mario Condis was charged with four counts of theft after deputies say they caught him stuffing parishioners’ money from offering baskets into his own pockets. Apparently the 60-year-old wasn’t familiar with the Eighth Commandment: Thou shalt not steal. A church video clearly shows the greedy heathen stashing cash into his pants while parishioners bow their heads as the priest leads them in prayer, cops say. Congregants of Blessed Trinity Catholic Church in Ocala believed Condis to be a wolf in sheep’s clothing, and alerted deputies in advance. They had become suspicious of his motives once he began attending multiple daily masses despite showing a less-than-saintly devotion. A two-week…

SONGBIRD Carly Simon has finally ripped the lid off her sizzling secret sex romps with Warren Beatty and other superstar lovers, including Rolling Stones wild man Mick Jagger and Jack Nicholson. The 70-year-old singer confesses Warren is the mystery man in the second verse of her famous hit “You’re So Vain,” where she sings, “You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive.” In her memoir “Boys in the Trees,” she admits Warren twotimed her, but describes him as a “glorious specimen” and praises his prowess in the sack, writing, “Warren seemed to have created a brand new manual on how to make love.” She met him when she was on tour and he burst into her dressing room and charmed her by taking out a list…

Medical news you can use!  HELP is on the way for people with chronic kidney disease and heart problems! A new drug, Veltassa, has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat potentially deadly hyperkalemia, a condition linked to high blood levels of potassium that causes unhealthy slow heart beats. A powder that mixes with water, Veltassa forces potassium out of the body. But Veltassa can also decrease the effectiveness of other drugs that are taken orally, scientists found. So doctors recommended using the new drug at least six hours before — or after — taking other pills. About 2.4 million American heart patients suffer from high potassium levels. Alarmingly, the current treatment for chronic kidney disease and heart failure — RAAS inhibitors — can make it worse.…

HIS ON-SCREEN life involved magic spells and broomsticks and battling dragons, but Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe hid a real-life battle with booze! “I have a very addictive personality,” he explains. “I don’t want to go into details, but I drank a lot and it was daily — I mean, nightly.” He admits to going into work on the later “ Harry Potter” films still toasted from the night before. And after the eight-film series wrapped in 2011, his problems continued. “I was living alone, and I think I was really freaked out,” the 26-year-old actor says of going from Harry’s world back to the “muggle” real world. Without his “Potter” castmates and crew “ around me all the time,” he boozed it up. A lot. He says it “was…
