AFTER decades of starring in movies and on Broadway, Liza Minnelli is broke, friends fear. Sources say the iconic song-and-dance gal has become a virtual recluse since moving from New York to a rented L.A. home last September, and is so hard up for cash she’s selling her famed Andy Warhol art collection for $40 million — far less than it’s worth. “It just sounds like she’s desperate,” says one longtime insider. “There’s a lot going on around her, and none of it is very good. You just have to wonder if she needs the money.” Adds another source: “She’s in bad shape, and we might never see her in public again. She doesn’t want to be seen by fans and has locked herself away in a private house in…

BELOVED Betty White is secretly battling brain-robbing Alzheimer’s, friends fear. The 94-year-old Hollywood legend has kept a low profile since her birthday in January, making just one guest TV appearance on a prerecorded episode of NBC’s short-lived series “Crowded” in April. But what viewers didn’t see is the meltdown the actress had at the taping, struggling to find words and unable to remember her lines! “Betty fears she’s losing her mind,” confides a source close to the aging star. Going blank “It was a terrible scene at the taping. The more she tried to get her lines, the worse it got, until she was in tears. “She says she was so well prepared, but when it came time to deliver, she felt she didn’t know where she was. Almost all…

POLAND’S government wants convicted child rapist Roman Polanski gone — and is pushing to have him extradited to America where he’ll finally face the music! Justice Minister Zbigniew Ziobro is outraged the celebrity fugitive has been able to thumb his nose at the law. “If he was just a regular guy — a teacher, doctor, plumber, decorator — then I’m sure he’d have been deported from any country to the U.S. a long time ago,” says Ziobro, Poland’s chief prosecutor. Pervert Polanski has been hiding in Europe for decades after pleading guilty in 1977 to “unlawful sex” with a 13-year-old girl. He took a plea deal to avoid conviction on rape and sodomy charges. He only served 42 days in jail and fled the U.S. before his 1978 sentencing. Polanski’s…

GETTING a good night’s sleep is the key to staying healthy, top medical experts say. Studies from around the world indicate adults need to snooze at least seven hours every night — and getting less sleep increases the risk of diabetes, heart disease and other conditions, which can lead to an early death. Although medical conditions, including obstructive sleep apnea, restless legs syndrome and prostate gland enlargement, can reduce sleep, for many people Stress-Related Sleep Disorder (SRSD) is a major culprit — the mind and body just can’t relax. Prescription sleeping pills can offer a quick fix, but they can lead to addiction, warns Dr. Wayne Riley, the president of the American College of Physicians. A top expert says “many insomnia patients are taking the wrong kind of medicine —…

TRAGIC Natalie Wood’s daughter Natasha Gregson Wagner is more interested in making money off her late mom than discovering what really happened when the actress mysteriously fell overboard and drowned nearly 35 years ago! That’s one of the shocking charges Natalie expert Marti Rulli makes in an open letter slamming the daughter of the “West Side Story” star for keeping silent “until you had something to sell.” Natasha, 45, is Natalie’s daughter from her marriage to producer Richard Gregson and has launched the perfume Natalie, based on the scent she remembers her mom wearing. She’s also said “the details of ‘did she hit her head and fall into the water or did she fall into the water and then hit her head,’ those little things don’t concern me. The result…

She’s “hellbent on revenge against Caitlyn for stealing the spotlight,” says the spy. “She’s desperate to put the focus firmly back on her — and having a senior citizen pregnancy would definitely solve the problem!” Caitlyn’s been rolling in endorsements and honors since transitioning from Bruce Jenner last year — and headlining another…

LEGENDARY wrestler Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka escaped a murder trial — because his mind is too feeble! But Superfly got a verbal body slam while being ruled incompetent to stand trial! “No offense, but I don’t think he’s smart enough to fake it,” says Judge Kelly Banach, discussing the grappler’s dementia. Superfly, 73, was charged in the 1983 death of girlfriend Nancy Argentino, who died of traumatic brain injuries. During testimony, Snuka addressed the judge as “hon” and “dear” and didn’t know why he was in court. Previously, Snuka claimed Nancy fell during a walk the night before and he found her unconscious after a match. Last year, the victim’s sister Lorraine demanded Snuka be tried. “I hope they send him to jail before God sends him to hell!” she said.…

THE most dangerous man in the world is a shadowy, international criminal genius right out of TV’s “The Blacklist”! Like James Spader’s character Raymond “Red” Reddington on the NBC hit, Paul Calder Le Roux, a 43-yearold Australian who was born in South Africa, has stayed under the radar while smuggling arms, drugs and gold, laundering money, hacking computers and other vile crimes, say sources. But now, like Reddington, who works with the FBI to bust other criminals on the TV crime series, Le Roux has become a stoolie for the DEA, ratting out other crooks and assassins. “Mr. Le Roux probably was the most dangerous man in the world,” says Joseph Friedberg, an attorney for an Israeli man, who sources say was double-crossed by the mysterious outlaw. “There’s nothing he…

BOXING great Muhammad Ali, his body ravaged by Parkinson’s disease, was locked in a brave fight for life after a mysterious respiratory ailment delivered a shocking knockout punch. As the former world champion fought for each breath in a hospital, a longtime pal said, “At this point, we’re just asking for your prayers.” Family spokesman Bob Gunnell revealed the slugger’s treatment was expected to be “brief,” but provided no details. Bob said Ali was in “fair condition.” But the pal added, “Ali hates all hospitals. He made it quite clear in the past he wants to die at home and NOT at a medical facility.” Ali, 74, was hospitalized with pneumonia in late 2014 and required around-theclock treatment for a urinary infection in January 2015. Sadly, the King of the…

DRUNKEN Camilla has been secretly shipped off to an exclusive rehab center after lashing out at Prince Charles in a furious booze-soaked showdown! The face-off came after Charles was caught red-handed kissing a hunky boytoy — ripping the lid off the royal’s shocking gay life, which was revealed exclusively in GLOBE’s May 30, 2016 issue. “Camilla has never been so humiliated,” says an insider. “She’s long known about Charles’ taste for men, but turned a blind eye. “Seeing photos of him cheating with a man was just too much.

Sexy KATE BECKINSALE rocks tight bodysuits in the “Underworld” movies, but when she was just starting out, blockbuster director MICHAEL BAY slammed her looks! “I think he was baffled by me because my boobs weren’t bigger than my head and I wasn’t blond,” the brunette says.
