Leaked documents indicate the Russian president, 69, is the puppet master behind at least 86 organizations splashing out major moolah for real estate and investments in his home country — as international governments continue to impose sanctions against the former Soviet Union for the tyrant’s invasion of neighboring Ukraine!

U.S. girls hitting puberty sooner ✚ AMERICAN girls as young as six are reaching puberty — and experts say childhood obesity, stress and hormone-disrupting chemicals may be to blame! The University of North Carolina’s Dr. Marcia Herman-Giddens explains data has shown the age of puberty among females has dropped dramatically since the mid-1990s. Scientists believe excess weight, emotional trauma and phthalates — which are used to improve the durability of plastics — could contribute to the early-onset changes, which also increase gals’ risk of developing breast and uterine cancer. Drug offers Alzheimer’s hope ✚ A PROMISING drug appears to reverse brain damage caused by early-stage Alzheimer’s disease and may even prevent the memory-robbing condition altogether, experts say. According to researchers at Yale University, the oral treatment — dubbed BMS-984923 —…

JOHNNY Depp’s courtroom victory over ex Amber Heard has left the Aquaman beauty broke and so desperate for cash she’ll be begging rich and powerful pals for financial help, spies snitch! On the hook to Depp for $8.3 million, the 36-year-old actress won’t be able to pay her ex-hubby, her legal bills — or support herself — with the proceeds from a tell-all book deal she just inked, sources claim. “Her book deal should fetch a couple of million at the very least and there are various one-off commercial partnerships in the works, but it’s a drop in the ocean compared to how much she needs to raise,” dishes an insider. On a recent Today show, Amber’s attorney Elaine Bredehoft was asked if her client was ready to cough up…

LOOK AT ME, I’M DONNA MILLS Did y’all know OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN’s iconic Grease character, Sandy, was inspired by Knots Landing beauty DONNA MILLS — not ’50s sweetheart SANDRA DEE, who’s been credited with the deed? Now 81, Donna is making her case with internet posts featuring her in both the iconic good-girl sweater and bad-girl leather looks from the movie. “Did you know that I went to school with JIM JACOBS? Jim Jacobs who wrote Grease! Jim Jacobs who used ME as his model for Sandy,” she boasts. Grease started life as a 1971 hit musical, which became 1978’s movie sensation starring Olivia and JOHN TRAVOLTA. “I didn’t know it at the time, but I found out years later,” she adds. “I was the original Sandy.” GRENIER TIES THE KNOT WITH STRINGS…

PRINCE HARRY and his TV actress wife Meghan’s plan to spin their royal celebrity status into real-life gold seems to have hit a speed bump after they were outfoxed by the 96-year-old queen, who is nobody’s fool! Her Majesty saw right through Harry and Meghan’s recent return to Britain. Officially, the couple swooped in from California to help Elizabeth celebrate her 70th year on the throne.

They were banned from joining the other royals…

GREGORY PECK, playing upstanding small-town Southern lawyer and devoted dad Atticus Finch, creates one of the most beloved characters in movie history in 1962’s To Kill a Mockingbird. But he almost didn’t get the chance to take the Oscar-winning role that addressed race relations in the U.S. James Stewart turned it down first, fearing the story was too controversial.

GUN-TOTING geezer Lawrence Sly shot down his helpless Louisiana neighbor — even pausing to reload his pistol — and now faces spending the rest of his miserable life behind bars! A Jefferson Parish jury found hothead Sly guilty of second-degree murder, which carries a mandatory life sentence, for killing Garland Webber, 57, in 2019.

HIGH-TECH glasses specially equipped to wirelessly beam images to a brain implant may one day allow the blind to see — just like Star Trek’s sightless hero Geordi LaForge, re-searchers say. Dutch scientists have launched an experimental four-year project dubbed NESTOR, which will put the revolutionary specs to the test. The team explains their goal is to “develop a neuroprosthesis that interfaces with the brain, allowing the generation of artificial visual percepts even when there is extensive damage to the eye or the optic nerve.” A camera mounted on the eyeglasses takes a still photo and transmits it to a chip installed in the blind individual’s visual cortex, using radio waves similar to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology. The method aims to mimic the way eyes send information to that…
