A GING Gwyneth Paltrow’s breasts have lost their perk so the goofy Goop boss is looking to get a fix for her droopy boobs, tipsters tattle. Since turning 50 last September, Gwyneth has become obsessed with looking hot, according to sources, who say the actress is determined to turn back time — beginning with her sagging 34Bs. “This is the first year of her new decade and the last things she wants are droopy boobs,” dishes an insider. “She’s on a big new push to raise funds for Goop, so she’ll be schmoozing and socializing a whole lot more and wants to look fantastic.” Her tush is also heading south — mainly because she doesn’t really exercise and concentrates on diet and meditation to stay thin, says the spy. “But the…

A BITTER legal feud has exploded between the surviving two Isley Brothers pop stars — who are both in their 80s — with claims one is cheating the other out of their music’s profits. In court papers, Rudolph Isley, 83, accuses younger brother Ronald, 81, of going behind his back and getting the trademark for the group’s name last summer.

The group, which also included brother Ernie at times, began in the ’50s. The Isleys had smash hits including It’s Your Thing and The Heat Is On.…

All of the actors were very disappointed. We all tried to talk MATT RUSKIN, our lovely writer/director, into letting us do the Boston accent, and he was like, ‘Absolutely not.’ So we failed, but I kind of hear him, because as I found out, people are very opinionated about that accent. So he was just like, ‘We’re not touching that.’” Carrie, 42, agrees there was no tinge of townie voice choice. “Matt is from Boston and very insistent…

But don’t worry — because MACAULAY CULKIN as the eight-year-old his family mistakenly leaves behind in the 1990 comedy Home Alone enjoys the adventure of a lifetime. “Guys, I’m eating junk and watching rubbish!” crows the kid.

COCKY Jimmy Kimmel is sitting on a three-year contract — but that hasn’t stopped the talk show heavyweight from pushing for a big fat raise, tipsters dish. According to a mole, Kimmel feels justified in his money grab because James Corden and Trevor Noah are saying so long to their shows — and Ellen DeGeneres ditched the daytime scene — leaving no new challengers for his latenight crown! “The other big thing in Jimmy’s favor is how popular he is with A-listers. It’s common knowledge he’s part of that Hollywood Hills mafia — and even Scientologists love him because he always offers a safe line of questioning,” spills the insider.

SELF-DESCRIBED brainiac Paris Hilton is crowing she deliberately fooled the world into believing she’s a “dumb blonde!” The 42-year-old hotel heiress and famous-for-being-famous socialite says she’s a genius when it comes to passing herself off as a blithering idiot, and credits herself for strategically using her well-honed skill to “create a new genre of celebrity.” “I’ve always been ahead of my time,” insists the new mom, who recently welcomed son Phoenix with hubby Carter Reum, 42. “Just like I say, I’m not a dumb blonde, I’m just very good at pretending to be one!” Paris says she first pulled the wool over everyone’s eyes in the early 2000s when she starred with on-again, off-again pal Nicole Richie in The Simple Life, a groundbreaking reality show about clueless rich girls roughing…
