COUNTRY music’s Mr. Nice Guy, Garth Brooks, is fighting for his personal and professional life after a shocking lawsuit filed by his wife Trisha Yearwood’s friend and makeup artist accuses the superstar singer of rape! In explosive accusations, the gal, whose identity is being kept secret, claims the 62-year-old cowboy king, wed to singer Yearwood, 60, since 2005, raped her in a California hotel room five years ago after pestering her for sex for more than three years. Brooks blasted the woman’s charges — that she says took place when she worked for him from 2017 to 2020 — as an outrageous extortion attempt and insists it is “behavior I am incapable of.” Now battle lines are being drawn in Nashville as the woman — identified as Jane Roe in…

MOVIE HUNK IS A GASBAG WILL SMITH beats bad guys with fists and guns in his hit Bad Boys flicks, but his former Men in Black director BARRY SONNENFELD says the star can easily take care of a gang of goons by gassing ’em into surrendering. According to the movie bossman, one of Will’s fanny explosions was so rank filming had to be shut down while co-star TOMMY LEE JONES was rescued and the set was defumed. The two MIB stars were “hermetically sealed” upside down in a chamber for a scene where a flying car zips through a tunnel when the director hears Will “go, ‘Oh, Jesus. So sorry, Tommy. So sorry. Get the ladder.’ So we race the ladder over. Tommy reaches his leg out, races down the…

THE children of Good Times hunk John Amos are locked in a ferocious feud over his paltry will and tragic final days. In an explosive GLOBE interview, Amos’ daughter, Shannon, demanded a police probe, claiming “foul play” was responsible for his death! Shannon, 58, blames her brother, Kelly Christopher “K.C.” Amos, 54, for years of elder abuse and medical neglect driven by greed. She accuses him of changing their dad’s will at least five times to cut her out after draining the star’s cash accounts and then having his corpse burned to hide evidence of “foul play.” The beloved actor died at age 84 reportedly of congestive heart failure at an Inglewood, Calif., hospital on Aug. 21, and his body was cremated nine days later — but his death was…

DANCING with the Stars has long been sidestepping reality when it comes to judging the competitors, charge numerous critics — but despite the many claims that the fix is in, the show continues to trip the light fantastic in the ratings! “Dancing with the Stars is a competition, but even more it’s showbiz,” a set insider tells GLOBE. “They try to create a live soap opera world of love stories and feuds between contestants, and the actual competition is nearly an afterthought!” Actor Antonio Sabàto Jr. has become the latest former contestant to say something is fishy with the judging. The 52-year-old General Hospital star, who competed on DWTS with pro partner Cheryl Burke in 2014, went on Cheryl’s podcast Sex, Lies and Spray Tans to make his case. “Yes,…

FRUSTRATED Wynonna Judd is finally washing her hands of her ex-con daughter — who’s now a fugitive from the law after skipping a Georgia court appearance and going on the lam!

Grace, one of Judd’s two kids with first hubby Arch Kelley, blew off a hearing to answer to three misdemeanor charges — driving with a suspended license, failing to wear protective headgear on a motorcycle and eluding a police officer — so a bench warrant was issued for her arrest! The charges stem from an Aug. 3 encounter, in which cops say the hellcat refused to…

SLIMMED Christina Aguilera loves her ultra-thin figure, but sources say instead of firing up her love life, the Dirrty singer’s lost interest in canoodling, leaving fiancé Matthew Rutler tearing his hair out in frustration. An insider says the 43-year-old songbird “is all about looking as sexy as she can these days. “She’s constantly showing off her body and parading around in skintight clothes, so people probably assume she’s got a hot sex life to go with her hot body. But it’s actually the total opposite. Apparently, she and Matt used to have a way better sex life. “But these days it’s DOA because she’s just never in the mood. It’s not something that’s ever been an issue in their relationship before, so of course Matt is blaming her drastic weight loss.”…

SUPERSTAR Lady Gaga is getting slammed with stress from all angles, according to sources, after critics trashed her acting in Joker 2 as “lifeless” and “boring” and pals accused her controlling fiancé, Michael Polansky, of turning the former fun girl into a drab stay-at-home. An insider snitches the 38-year-old Bloody Mary singer “was crushed that the movie didn’t get better reviews. “It’s really taken the wind out of her sails. And then she’s got her friends giving her a hard time about not being fun anymore. “They’re accusing her of turning into an old lady overnight and complaining she doesn’t know how to have a good time.” Pals point the finger at her fiancé, 46-year-old tech CEO Polansky, a Harvard grad, who attended the Ivy League school at the same…

Sources snitch henpecked Harry, 40, remains under the 43-year-old former TV actress’ thumb even if they’re oceans apart — and she treats the former party animal like the ironfisted parent of a young teen. “He has to check in regularly and stick to her road trip rules, including a strict 11 p.m. curfew,” tattles a source. The Duke of Sussex touched down in South Africa Oct. 1 following a brief visit to England while his wife of six years stayed home in Montecito, Calif., with their two kids, Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 3.

NOW that she’s free from her Today show gig, desperate-for-love Hoda Kotb is pouring her energy into finding Mr. Right, say insiders who add the famous chatterbox yearns for a simple, down-toearth, regular Joe. Sources snitch the 60-year-old single mom of two, who’s flunked the dating game since the flop of her engagement to financier Joel Schiffman in 2022, is “done with these city types.” “She loves the idea of dating a country guy and has drawn a lot of inspiration from her friend Kathie Lee Gifford,” spills an insider. As GLOBE has reported, Kathie Lee quit Today in 2019 and split for a new and more easygoing life in Nashville. “Whenever Hoda speaks to Kathie Lee and hears how happy she is, she gets a little envious,” says the…

A DRUNK-dialing Mark Cuban bought a lifetime pass on American Airlines — his first big splurge back when the billionaire was just a freshly minted millionaire. After selling his first company, a software startup called MicroSolutions, for $6 million in 1990, the Shark Tank star celebrated by boozing it up with his buddies. “They’re like, ‘What do you think you’re going to do with all this money?’ And I’m like, ‘I don’t care about cars or houses, but boy, you know, I fly a lot for work,’” Mark recalls. That’s when he decided to drop $125,000 on the pass, which allowed him unlimited first-class flights. After selling another company, Broadcast.com, to Yahoo for $5.7 billion in 1999, the tycoon, now 66, bought a $40 million private jet — and transferred…

THE recent scandal involving big bucks collected and spent by the Fashion for Relief charity headed by supermodel Naomi Campbell may wrongly be pointing the finger at the stunning catwalker, who was banned for five years from the mismanaged organization. The hard truth is: Anyone — especially the rich and famous — who shells out lots of dough to attend one of these glitzy benefits knows darn well a big chunk of their ticket price DOESN’T go to charity. In fact, any bighearted person who just cared about helping the needy would merely donate directly. That way there’s no fuss — but also there’s no headline publicity or glitzy party. Except for some necessary administrative expenses, the money would normally go to help whomever or whatever it was intended for.…

NO MATTER what else CARRIE FISHER ever did in life — before dying at 60 in 2016 — she was always best known for the original 1977 intergalactic Star Wars movie, where she played Princess Leia, she of the bizarre cinnamon-bun hairstyle and sheer white dress. The character became a staple of many young men’s fantasies, and Carrie explained in her one-woman show Wishful Drinking it was because franchise creator George Lucas wouldn’t let her wear a bra under the dress, telling her: “There’s no underwear in space!” Carrie wryly added: “And he said it with such conviction!”…

IT FIGURES. Cotton candy was invented by a dentist, William James Morrison, in 1897. It made him rich.

The critter now resides in Schenectady’s Via Aquarium.…

JAUNTY Jennifer Aniston has been bouncing for joy lately — and sources say it’s because she’s fallen head over heels for one of the surgeons who does her nip/tucks! “The word is there’s a guy in one of her doctors’ offices that’s got Jen very excited,” spills an insider. “It’s one of the big reasons she goes in for her treatments with a spring in her step — because she gets a chance to see him!” Spies spill it’s unclear exactly who has caught Aniston’s eye “Jen’s being very mysterious about it,” dishes a mole. “She goes to a few different places on the East Coast and the West Coast, so it’s a little difficult to nail down who exactly this guy is. “But she’s made it clear that she’d…

DEVASTATED Lisa Marie Presley just couldn’t let go of her dead 27-year-old son, Benjamin Keough, so the heartbroken mom kept his body on ice at home for two months following his suicide. That’s the heartbreaking revelation from her just-out memoir, From Here to the Great Unknown, which was finished by her daughter and Ben’s older sister, Riley Keough, after Lisa Marie’s death at 54 from complications of weight loss surgery on Jan. 12 last year. After emotionally troubled Ben put a shotgun barrel in his mouth and blew his brains out at his California home July 12, 2020, Lisa Marie was so distraught she had to “fight” to keep from following him to the grave and live for remaining children Riley, now 35, and 16-year-old twins Harper and Finley. Still,…

PRINCE HARRY’s paranoid claims that he was “bugged” and “tracked” with hidden devices by a scandal-seeking newspaper were tossed out of court by a judge who slammed the royal for making accusations without any proof. The Duke of Sussex, 40, originally filed his case in London’s High Court in 2018 charging The Sun used electronic devices to “bug” and “track” him — even planting a listening device in the car of his former galpal Chelsy Davy. Harry previously dropped the claim about Chelsy, but now a judge has thrown out his claim that his electronic devices were also “hacked” by the paper hoping to learn his secrets. In the latest ruling, the High Court justice slammed Harry, who quit his royal duties and split with wife Meghan for America to…

CONVICTED killer Scott Peterson — who’s spent two decades behind bars in California for murdering his pregnant 27-year-old wife, Laci, and their unborn son, Conner — may walk free after a bombshell ruling! Peterson, 51, was recently granted access to crucial evidence related to the 2002 deaths, potentially paving the way for a retrial — and acquittal! A San Mateo County Superior Court judge approved Peterson’s request for a post-conviction discovery period on the basis of the state’s Penal Code 1054.9, which went into effect Jan. 1, 2003. The law allows defendants who were found guilty of serious or violent felonies and sentenced to 15 or more years in jail access to previously unobtained materials “in possession of the prosecution and law enforcement authorities to which the same defendant would…
