SPAIN IS A BIG PAIN FOR ALEC The Spanish brouhaha over 66-year-old ALEC BALDWIN’s much-younger wife HILARIA is exploding again with the expected debut of their reality show. The 41-year-old beauty and mom of their brood of seven is seen on a video cooking in the kitchen with a pal and sliding in and out of English. At one point she says, “My husband hates … cebollas,” using the Spanish word for “onions.” The hottie yoga instructor took a lot of heat in 2020 for pretending she was born in Mallorca and often using a fake Spanish accent. The truth: She was born and bred in Boston to American parents. The luscious bilinguist later explained she spent “some of her childhood in Spain,” grew up “speaking two languages” and lapses into…

MONSTROUS Matthew Muller—who is serving a 40-year sentence for California’s notorious Gone Girl kidnapping case — is facing new charges in a pair of chilling home invasions, authorities say. According to the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office, in September 2009, the 47-year-old fiend broke into a woman’s Mountain View digs, “attacked her, tied her up, made her drink a concoction of medications and said he was going to rape her.” But lawmen say the gal persuaded him to stop — and Muller allegedly suggested she get a guard dog before fleeing! Less than three weeks later, investigators charge the sicko broke into a Palo Alto residence, bound a woman and made her drink Nyquil before beginning to assault her. Prosecutors state that DNA evidence implicated the Ivy League–educated former…

THERE’S a potential killer in nearly everyone’s home, as chilling as that sounds — your refrigerator! Fridges and other trusted household appliances come with a hidden danger lurking behind their domestic helpfulness, with fire departments across the U.S. responding to thousands of calls annually when labor-saving amenities go on the blink and go ablaze — sometimes with deadly results. In 2017, 70 people died and 70 more were injured when a residential fridge went on the fritz from an electrical problem and turned into an inferno, decimating a 24-story high-rise in London in the worst fire disaster in Britain since the German blitz in World War II. But iceboxes are no less dangerous in America! A study shows that from 2006 to 2010, 1,710 U.S. homes were engulfed in refrigerator…

KEN JENNINGS is thrilled to be hosting Celebrity Jeopardy! season 3, but sources say Sony bigwigs only gave him the plum gig’cause he’s a cheap choice — and costs less than any other emcee! The 50-year-old Jennings, who began as a winning contestant on Jeopardy!, became the face of the show’s franchise after fellow cohost, Big Bang Theory star Mayim Bialik, was axed in December 2023. He reportedly earns $4 million a year — a drop in the bucket next to former host Alex Trebek, who was getting $18 million a year at the time of his tragic pancreatic cancer death in November 2020. “Ken is unquestionably the cheapest hosting option who fans actually know and like and who won’t ruin the show,” blabs an insider. “That’s why he’s going…

AT LEAST 100 horses died during the filming of the 1925 silent movie Ben-Hur — but it was the 25 horses who died while making the 1936 historical adventure flick The Charge of the Light Brigade that brought lasting change in Hollywood. Even the film’s swashbuckling star, avid horseman ERROL FLYNN, was horrified by how the equines met their fate during the epic battle scene, where tripwires were used to tumble the galloping steeds. It was such a scandal that Congress took steps to protect animal actors and the ASPCA got tripwires banned throughout the industry.…

TROUBLE is cooking between country cutie Carrie Underwood and bullheaded hubby Mike Fisher because the longtime vegetarian is grossed out by her meat-loving man’s carnivorous appetite — and he refuses to change his ways, sources dish. The songbird — who is slated to join Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie on the judging panel of her old TV stomping ground American Idol in March — has been devoted to a plant-heavy diet since age 13 when she saw calves on her family’s cattle farm getting neutered. Now 41, Underwood grows her own veggies, keeps bees on her Tennessee property and frequently posts photos on social media of her cooking, canning, pickling and baking! But the “wannabe vegan” admits she can’t give up one dairy item, confiding, “I think cheesy things are my…

According to the insider, Tom’s had nothing to…

MOVIE witch Angelina Jolie vengefully dragged out her divorce with Brad Pitt to make her ex suffer emotionally and financially — and secure her-self a whopping $80 million settlement, tipsters tell GLOBE. Sources dish that the Fight Club stud, 61, was eager to end the bickering and made multiple generous offers to the mother of his six kids — but stubborn Angie, 49, ordered her attorneys to repeatedly reject his proposed settlements until she knew he was desperate and would cough up the most cash possible! “She wanted to punish Brad, and she stalled the divorce for eight long years until she wore him down to the point where he would write her a check for any amount requested — and that’s what happened,” squeals an insider. According to the…

TRAGIC King Charles is suffering a public breakdown as he moves ever closer to his grim and inevitable fate, and sources say he has turned to religion and his son Prince William to support him in his final days!

Paul Williams, following a solemn church service over the holidays at St. Mary Magdalene Church on the royal family’s Sandringham estate in Norfolk. “Charles was visibly emotional with his head buried in his hands at one point,” shares a royal insider. “This is not the king his subjects are used to seeing, and it was extremely disturbing to anyone who was on hand. “He is usually…

A DESPERATE Jennifer Aniston is on a mission to help fellow Friend alum Matt LeBlanc make some healthy changes she hopes will save his life, sources tell GLOBE. As readers know, the Man With a Plan hunk, 57, has recently gained a ton of weight — most of which has gone to his gargantuan gut — and experts believe he’s now crushing the scales at 275 pounds. Research shows that obesity, in particular excess belly fat, can increase the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. “Like most of Matt’s friends, Jen is desperately worried about him,” spills an insider. “He’s way out of shape, and she’s convinced he’d turn his life around if he embraces the right mindset and listens to her advice!” Jen, 55, is famous for her dedication…

AFTER winning an Oscar and later starring in an iconic Christmas flick, Irish-born actress Brenda Fricker plunged into suicidal depression and now says she’s living like a recluse and “broke.” “I lived off my savings while they lasted, but now I'm completely broke,” says the 79-year-old actress. Her tragic fall is a far cry from 1990, when she nabbed the Best Supporting Actress Oscar playing the mom of Daniel Day-Lewis in My Left Foot. She also appeared as the homeless woman in Home Alone 2. Ironically, she says she’s now home alone: “I live a very quiet life well under the radar and I drive a tiny car, own a cottage, that’s about it. Talking to the wall quite a bit, talking to the dog, writing poetry, reading books, watching television.…

COUNTRY legend Dolly Parton says she’s embarking on a diet after stuffing herself over the holidays, alarming concerned friends and fans who fear the already skinny minnie is risking her health. “Aside from her huge breast implants, Dolly is pin-thin all over,” notes a Nashville insider. “It’s actually a little scary to think of her losing more weight!” The 79-year-old Jolene singer admitted to over-indulging at the tail end of 2024, like a lot of other Americans. “We all start eating around Thanksgiving and we eat until the first of January, and that’s when we all go on our diets,” Dolly told an interviewer. “So, you think, ‘Well, I’m not going to even think about dieting now. I’m just going to eat everything I want to.’” She added that “you…

A BLISSFUL Britney Spears is over the moon that her sons are back in her life — but insiders question the boys’ motives, noting that they only decided to renew the relationship with their mom once her child-support payments to their dad, Kevin Federline, ended now that they’re both over 18. “As if by magic, Sean and Jayden have appeared after the money was cut off,” a source tells GLOBE. “Fans are saying it, her friends have said it, and they want Britney to beware!” The pop tart, 43, had been paying Federline $40K a month in child support. It was reduced to $20K when Sean turned 18 last year, then ended altogether in November after 18-year-old Jayden’s high school graduation. “For years, these boys would have nothing to do…

Insiders babble that the 60-year-old mom of two, whose last day cohosting Today was Jan. 10, has not been able to move on since their split in January 2022 and still carries a torch for the financier, 66. “There’s a tenderness between them and that’s nice, but what she wants and craves is the intimacy of being a couple,” tells a tattler. “That’s what’s missing at this time in her life. She’s tried to find it elsewhere, only to be discouraged. Her attempts at dating have been disasters. She realizes no one has the magic touch quite like Joel!” Over…

NOT all heroes wear capes, at least not all the time — so even though Tom Holland wasn’t wearing his Spider-Man costume, he didn’t hesitate to take a stand for law and order on the mean streets of a Whole Foods in Los Angeles. The British actor, 28, was in the pricey grocery store when a brawl broke out between two men. “They’re like going at it, right behind me,” he says. That’s when his spidey-sense told him he needed to intervene, so he pulled the two apart and led one of the squabblers away. Fortunately, the man was a fan. “I can see that he’s recognized me immediately, and you could see the wheels turning, like, I’m really angry, but Spider-Man is telling me to calm down,” Holland quips.…

TV COP Wilmer Valderrama is promoting himself as an NCIS hero and real-life good guy, but sources tell GLOBE his famous exes think he’s a slimy worm who belongs under a rock for the tasteless things he’s tattled about them in bed! In his 2006 interview on Howard Stern, he bragged about his sex romps and the kinky quirks of his bedmates. He described Ashlee Simpson as good in the sack and loud, rated Jennifer Love Hewitt eight out of 10 and bragged that he took Mandy Moore’s virginity.

Wilmer also revealed Lindsay Lohan’s breast size…

GRUMPY rapper Kanye West is toning down his frowns and dropping blubber, insiders say, after young sexpot wife Bianca Censori gave him an ultimatum — shape up or she’s walking! The 47-year-old rapper looked much slimmer in a posted photo where instead of his usual scowl, he was flashing a rare smile while standing with his scantily clad 30-year-old wife, whom he recently showed off in a photo of her nude in the bathtub. The beauty was also beaming, and an insider reveals: “Kanye’s dropped pounds and Bianca’s obviously relieved because he was hefty and kind of gross. “Everyone is giving him props for getting his act together, but truth is he didn’t have a lot of choice. “He was pushed by Bianca to do something about that gut as…
