REBEL WILSON is embroiled in an ugly legal battle that she’s calling her “worst nightmare.” The Pitch Perfect star is facing two separate lawsuits surrounding her directorial debut, The Deb, and she’s blasted back with her own countersuit. The legal mess recently exploded with one of the movie’s producers claiming Rebel’s minions called her an “Indian Ghislaine Maxwell!” The brouhaha began when Rebel accused some of The Deb’s British producers of embezzlement, sexual harassment and blocking the film’s release. The producers promptly denied Rebel’s allegations — which went out to her 11 million Instagram followers — and slapped her with a defamation suit in Los Angeles. Lead star Charlotte MacInnes is also suing Rebel after Wilson alleged MacInnes was sexually harassed on set. Rebel, 45, reported the alleged harassment and,…

A TWISTED online cult targeted kids nationwide on gaming platforms, bullying them into performing sick sexual acts on camera — and even giving some of the tormented children instructions on how to kill themselves, federal prosecutors charge. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York, five apprehended men were part of Greggy’s Cult, which preyed on minors as young as 11 from 2019 to 2021 on the messaging app Discord and gaming networks, such as Roblox and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. Prosecutors say the accused pervs held video calls on the platforms, coercing youngsters to perform sexually explicit acts, which they captured and circulated online or among themselves. Court documents allege the men then forced the kids to mark their bodies with cult members’ names and…

Jennifer Lopez CHANEL A Turkish paper reported that the 56-year-old was refused entry to the Chanel store in Istanbul. Reportedly, the On the Floor singer took the pushback calmly, saying, “OK, no problem.” Then, as if channeling Pretty Woman, Jenny from the Block spent three hours shopping at nearby Celine and Beymen stores, dropping thousands of dollars. When staff from Chanel realized their mistake and invited her back, J.Lo refused. As Julia Roberts said, “Big mistake. Big! Huge!” Justin Bieber SANKEYS Sure, he was underage at the time, but that never stopped the pop star, now 31, from partying with his posse. Until he tried to get into a club in Manchester, England, that is. When the snub made international headlines, Sankeys was unapologetic. “Yes, the rumours are true… we…

PETTY mom Priscilla Presley appears to be playing favorites as she shills her new memoir — telling fans that she’s concerned for recovering addict son Navarone Garibaldi, while trash-talking her and Elvis Presley’s dead daughter, Lisa Marie, sources say. During a recent appearance in Pottstown, Pa., Priscilla, 80, gushed about her romance with the late King of Rock ’n’ Roll as she promoted her book, Softly, As I Leave You: Life After Elvis. The Naked Gun beauty also fired off about Lisa Marie, who died in January 2023 at age 54 after going into cardiac arrest related to a complication from an earlier weight loss surgery. The grieving mom shared that she does miss Lisa Marie “every day” — and even admitted, “I miss her arguments.” But when discussing her…

SCANDAL-plagued David Harbour is being rescued by some friends in high places — Courteney Cox, Jason Bateman and Jennifer Aniston, a source tells GLOBE. The 50-year-old Thunderbolts star has seemingly been accused by his estranged wife, Lily Allen, 40, on her recently released album, West End Girl, of cheating and pushing for an open relationship. Meanwhile, Millie Bobby Brown, 21, who plays Harbour’s daughter on the Netflix series Stranger Things, reportedly accused him of harassment and bullying. (She later said she “felt safe” working with him.) The two incidents have shredded Harbour’s image as one of the nicest guys in the business, leaving him desperate to save his career from extinction. But now Hollywood heavy-weights Courteney, Jason and their mutual BFF Jennifer are rallying around him. “David is not ‘problematic’…

A CROSS-DRESSING guy donned women’s clothing, a wig and makeup in an elaborate Mrs. Doubtfire–like scheme to collect his late mother’s $60,000 annual pension in Italy, while keeping her mummified corpse concealed for three years, authorities charge. The 57-year-old unemployed nurse, whose name was not released, wore the gender-bending duds to renew the identity card of his 82-year-old mom, Graziella Dall’Oglio, in the town of Borgo Virgilio — but a suspicious registry office clerk alerted police, officials claim. A photo of the middle-aged suspect in girlie garb has been likened to 1993’s Mrs. Doubt-fire, in which Robin Williams portrays a recently divorced voice actor who masquerades as an elderly nanny to spend time with his kids. Borgo Virgilio Mayor Francesco Aporti says of the apprehended individual, “She looked very much like…

MAKE a smart New Year’s resolution — adapt healthy habits that will help your brain age more slowly. University of Florida researchers found that optimism, good sleep, social support and other factors were strongly linked with healthier brains — even in people suffering from the chronic pain of knee osteoarthritis. “These are things that people have some level of control over,” said lead researcher Jared Tanner, a professor at the University of Florida. “You can learn how to perceive stress differently. Poor sleep is very treatable. Optimism can be practiced.” In the study, 128 middle-aged and older adults, most with chronic knee osteoarthritis, were followed for two years. Using MRI scans analyzed by a machine learning system, the team estimated each participant’s “brain age” and compared it to their…

AILING actor James Van Der Beek scored over $47K to help cover the cost of his cancer treatment in an auction of his prized memorabilia from Dawson’s Creek and Varsity Blues. “I’ve been storing these treasures for years, waiting for the right time to do something with them, and with all of the recent unexpected twists and turns life has presented recently, it’s clear that the time is now,” says James, who starred as the title character on the ’90s teen drama. As GLOBE reported, the 48-year-old father of six was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer in 2023. The biggest moneymaker in the auction was a necklace that Dawson Leery gifted to Joey Potter, played by Katie Holmes, which garnered $26,628.…

SMOKING-GUN evidence has emerged suggesting the Central Intelligence Agency engaged with assassination patsy Lee Harvey Oswald roughly three months before President John F. Kennedy’s murder in Dallas, Texas — then lied about its involvement for decades, sources say. The incredible revelations come 62 years after JFK’s murder on Nov. 22, 1963 — a crime for which only Oswald, who was gunned down himself days later, was officially implicated — despite mounting evidence hinting there was a far-reaching conspiracy run out of the CIA’s Miami field office, also known as JMWAVE. The bombshell findings were finally made public through an executive order signed by President Donald Trump on Jan. 22, 2025, mandating the release of the government’s remaining classified JFK assassination records. Sources say one such document proves the CIA repeatedly…

SCREEN legends Michael Caine and Judi Dench have leaned on each other for comfort and company, GLOBE has learned, as serious health issues haunt their final days. Two-time Oscar winner Michael, 92, uses a wheelchair, while Notes on a Scandal star Judi, 91, is now almost completely blind. “Michael and Judi have always had a beautiful friendship, but this past year brought them even closer,” a pal tells GLOBE. “Fact is, there aren’t a whole lot of people from their ‘good old days’ that have lived as long as they have. When they want to reminisce or laugh about the madness of their early careers, they really only have each other.” Caine has notched 174 acting credits since his first gig in a 1946 TV movie, while Judi has 142…

IF YOU think you’ve been stuck inside for way too long because of the wintry weather, be grateful you’re not confined in the spooky Overlook Hotel with twisted Jack Torrance, played by JACK NICHOLSON in The Shining. The 1980 Stanley Kubrick horror film was based on the nail-biting Stephen King novel about a writer who takes an ill-advised winter caretaking job at a secluded hotel along with his wife, played by SHELLEY DUVALL, and their telepathic son, played by DANNY LLOYD. All hell breaks loose when Jack starts to go cuckoo from the isolation and the supernatural forces haunting the Overlook.…

BROADWAY beauty Sutton Foster is fast-tracking her long-delayed divorce from screenwriter Ted Griffin because she’s jonesing to wed Wolverine hunk Hugh Jackman, who’s already planning to splash cash on a big blowout once his honey is free to get hitched, sources say. An insider confides, “Hugh and Sutton are so over the top in love. They practically glow when they’re together. It’s an open secret among Hugh’s friends that they’re already engaged. He’s just too excited to keep that to himself. It’s not something they can announce publicly until she’s officially divorced, but they are gearing up to that.” As GLOBE previously reported, rumors flew about the cozy costars who were married to their now former partners due to their friendly exchanges and electric chemistry onstage in The Music Man,…

Funnyman JIMMY KIMMEL not only survived getting booted off the air briefly for a wisecrack about the CHARLIE KIRK shooting, but ABC bigwigs have extended the popular 58-year-old late-night host’s contract for more than a year, to “at least May 2027.” Kimmel’s current contract was due to expire this May. Former Family Matters star DARIUS MCCRARY, 49, who played Eddie Winslow on the hit ’90s sitcom, was released after several days in a Michigan slammer by pleading no contest to five felony charges linked to unpaid child support for his 10-year-old daughter, Zoey. The actor, who at one point seemingly skipped the country to Mexico, reportedly owes $75,000 in support and will face sentencing in February. His lawyer says the agreement shows that “family does matter” and “allows Mr. McCrary…

SMART-ASS Prince Harry is mouthing off about President Donald Trump, and some experts believe the royal renegade is acting out because he may be secretly plotting to get deported back to Britain to permanently get away from his overbearing American wife, Duchess Meghan. The California-based Duke of Sussex, 41, twice poked the presidential bear, starting with a train-wreck appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. During a skit about holiday films that ultimately triggered boos and groans from the audience, Harry quipped about the U.S., “I heard you elected a king.” Days later, during a meeting of the British American Business Council in Santa Monica, the smart-aleck royal again risked incurring the prez’s wrath by taking a cheap crack at Trump’s strict border-crossing policies. While gushing over England’s and…

Long walks lengthen life ✚ A GROUNDBREAKING new study of more than 33,000 adults found that people who took most of their daily steps during one long walk had a lower risk of dying than those who broke their strolls into more, shorter sessions. “Simply adding one or two longer walks per day, each lasting at least 10-15 minutes at a comfortable but steady pace, may have significant benefits especially for people who don’t walk much,” says lead researcher Matthew Ahmadi of the University of Sydney. Standing up saves your back ✚ DESK jockeys who alternate 30 minutes of sitting with 15 minutes of using a standing desk at work significantly reduced their lower back pain compared to people who devised their own sit-stand routine, an Australian study found. The…

BLOWHARD Gene Simmons is spitting on the grave of banished Kiss bandmate Ace Frehley by suggesting the reformed addict’s “bad decisions” contributed to his death from a fall-related brain bleed — even though the famed guitarist had been outspoken about being sober since 2006, sources say. Frehley died at age 74 on Oct. 16 when his loved ones made the difficult decision to take him off life support following his tragic tumble down the stairs at his home studio in Morristown, N.J. The medical examiner determined the New York Groove singer’s cause of death was blunt trauma injury of the head due to an accidental fall. Yet Simmons, 76, gripes, “He refused [advice] from people that cared about him — including yours truly — to try to change his lifestyle.…

SNOW EDITION: Snowflakes are clusters of ice crystals that fall from clouds. Individual flakes are tiny, but they can stick together into large clumps that can be as big as a dinner plate. There are different types of snow due to factors such as elevation and proximity to water. Utah’s arid slopes are known for their fluffy “champagne powder,” while in California, the wetter flurries have been dubbed “Sierra cement.” In a region of Antarctica known as Dry Valleys, it’s so dry it hardly ever snows. Snow has fallen as far south as San Diego and Miami. The biggest snowman was actually a 122-foot-tall snow-woman named Olympia. Bethel, Maine, residents used a reported 13 million pounds of snow to build her in 2008. She didn’t totally melt until that July.…
