WITH all her businesses and public appearances, KIM KARDASHIAN still has time to be a hands-on mom, so when daughter NORTH, 12, started getting alarming stuff on her new Instagram site, momma shut it down! British celebrity tattletale ROB SHUTER reveals North’s account “mysteriously vanished” shortly after opening. “Kim didn’t like what she saw,” a source told the columnist. “Some of the content, comments and attention were worrying, and she felt it wasn’t safe for North yet.” Another insider says: “The account was fine at first, but Kim noticed posts that made her pause. She’s very hands-on and protective this was her call.” North’s site, and whether she should have it, would likely be an issue between Kim and ex-hubby KANYE WEST, North’s dad. “Kim and Kanye have very different…

NEARLY 20,000 suspected terrorists entered the U.S. from 2021 to early 2025 during former President Joe Biden’s administration — and many may still be lurking in America today, warns the country’s top counterterrorism expert. In hair-raising testimony before the House Homeland Security Committee, National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent told the congressional panel that the potential murderers are “the No. 1 threat” facing Americans today. Kent chillingly explained that the center’s most recent tally of approximately 18,000 unaccounted-for suspected terrorists hiding on U.S. soil may only scratch the surface as sources estimate as many as 20 million migrants may have poured into America during Biden’s sole Oval Office term. The startling news follows a June report from the Office of the Inspector General at the Department of Justice (DOJ), which…

A DARING dad jumped into action to thwart a knifewielding kidnapper who tried to snatch his young son out of a stroller during a shopping trip in Oregon, cops say. According to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office (WCSO), a man they later identified as 37-year-old Denis Villalobos attempted to take the tot at a store in Cornelius and pulled a blade from his pocket when the father intervened. The parent suffered minor injuries during the altercation, but the tyke was not harmed. Investigators say Villalobos fled the scene but was later apprehended after a witness provided the license plate number of his vehicle. Officials have not released the identity of the targeted family, but claim surveillance footage shows Villalobos following them throughout the store. “He looks like he’s staring at…

GROCERY prices rose at an annual rate of 2.7 percent in August, the fastest pace of grocery inflation in two years, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

HIGH School Musical star Ashley Tisdale has dissed her “toxic” Hollywood mom mob for treating her like they were still homeroom haters — and launched a massive Tinseltown feud. In a biting online essay titled “Breaking Up With My Toxic Mom Group,” Ashley ripped the lid off the monstrous behavior of the catty A-list clique. The 40-year-old actress wrote she felt “not cool enough” after the petty posse — which included Hilary Duff, Meghan Trainor and Mandy Moore — left her out of group hangs. She recalled “sitting alone one night … feeling totally lost as to what [she] was doing ‘wrong’ to be left out.” Eventually, the mom of two texted the group, “This is too high school for me and I don’t want to take part in it…

SAPPY Prince Harry — and spotlight-seeking wife Meghan — are hell-bent on giving the life of his late mother, Princess Diana, the Hollywood treatment, according to sources who say the royal renegade’s biopic plans are further fueling his feud with sibling Prince William. “Harry is determined to honor his mother and share her story with the next generation, and he doesn’t see any reason why he needs to involve his brother,” an insider shares. As GLOBE has previously reported, sources say Harry, 41, and William, 43, have been at odds since 2020 when the Duke of Sussex and his former Suits star spouse ditched palace duties — and life in the U.K. — to chase fame and fortune in Tinseltown. Now, insiders say William is furious over the idea of…

EXPLOSIVE just-released secret documents reveal that nations around the world — along with the U.S. — are investigating mounting, undeniable evidence of ongoing contact with UFOs! In a bombshell disclosure, the British Ministry of Defense has now declassified a trove of long-sealed files detailing an exhaustive probe conducted into ominous UFO sightings in Belgium and within the United Kingdom. The chilling, long-hidden reports describe incredible evidence of airborne crafts that “in terms of … speed and shape … lie beyond our engineering knowledge and that which could be reasonably expected from hostile powers.” “[They] hovered for long periods and accelerated quickly to supersonic speeds, outrunning F-16s,” the report reveals, adding the amazing craft “did not appear to use conventional reaction propulsion. “If this represents real technology, perhaps it should be…

OLYMPIC gold medalist Oksana Baiul’s future looks chillier now that she’s lost custody of her 10-year-old daughter. The Ukrainian-born figure skater, 48, and husband Carlos Farina finalized their divorce on Jan. 5 following 13 years of marriage. Farina was awarded sole custody of their daughter, Sophia. Farina, the chief executive officer of the Champions on Ice Tour, was ordered to make good-faith efforts to arrange visits between Sophia and her mother should both the former Olympian and her daughter agree to them. Neither will have to pay spousal support, and Baiul is not required to pay child support. As readers know, the hardknocks skater, who was orphaned at 13 when her mother died of ovarian cancer, has struggled with substance abuse dating back to the ’90s. So as part of…

THE summer of 1982 got truly steamy when the teen sex romp Fast Times at Ridgemont High was released, highlighted by a sizzling swimming pool scene featuring then 18-year-old Phoebe Cates. In the torrid sequence, the just-discovered star doffed her bikini top in her role as the sexually experienced Linda Barrett. But the memorable moment nearly didn’t happen — according to director Amy Heckerling, Cates was initially reluctant to go bare because she was afraid neighbors might be spying on the set from nearby rooftops.…

SITCOM icon Ted Danson is known as one of Hollywood’s most upbeat characters, but a source says the former Cheers legend has plunged into a deep funk recently and loved ones along with devoted actresswife Mary Steenburgen fear he’s spiraling into a deep depression! The 78-year-old, who soared to stardom as playboy bar owner Sam Malone on Cheers from 1982 to 1993 and in movies like Three Men and a Baby and Body Heat, is still busy with commercials and Netflix’s sitcom A Man on the Inside. But despite his ongoing success and popularity, a source says he’s been clobbered with dark thoughts as he ages. “A lot of people are ried about Ted” following the recent gruesome murder of his friends Rob and Michele Reiner seemingly by their…

STUNNING Terri Irwin is the widow of the real-life Croc Hunter — the late Steve Irwin — and now an insider says the movie version — Crocodile Dundee star Paul Hogan — wants to capture her heart! Ironically, the pair denied buzz that there was a romantic link a decade ago, but sources say divorced Hogan, 86, who’s worth an estimated $22 million thanks to his flicks about the Aussie tough guy, is seriously looking at Terri, 61, as a new mate. “In his mind, Terri ticks every box,” tattles an insider. “He’s always admired her strength, her warmth and the way she’s carried herself since Steve’s death. “There’s nothing flashy or performative about her — she’s genuine and grounded and that really speaks to Paul now. Even though he’s…

CONTROVERSIAL actor Michael Rapaport has thrown his hat into the ring for New York City’s 2029 mayoral race — in a bid to prevent the Big Apple’s newest Hizzoner, Zohran Mamdani, from securing a second term. Days after Mamdani was sworn in as the city’s first socialist leader on Jan. 1, the War at Home alum declared on his I Am Rapaport podcast, “I’m running for mayor.” The former Boston Public regular also shared on Instagram, “Born. Raised. NYC. Nothing’s free. No bulls**t. No fake grins. I’ll own my mistakes, apologize when I screw up, and fight to make this city safe, affordable and thriving. You got Zoron the Moron now … Mayor Rapaport is coming.” Rapaport, 55, has been fiercely critical of Mamdani, 34, since last summer when the…

FRAIL former first lady Hillary Clinton is crumbling under the stress of her strained marriage to ex-president Bill and the mortifying reminders of her skirt-chasing husband’s chummy friendship with dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein — and now there are fears that the 78-year-old is rapidly racing toward her grave, sources say. Last month, a shocking report stated that Hillary was hospitalized in New York City — but that official word was that the onetime secretary of state was not admitted and was simply at the unnamed facility for a consultation. However, political insiders say they’re smelling a cover-up — and believe that she’s actually in decline. “Hillary looks worse than ever,” says a source. “She appears to be deeply affected by her and Bill being subpoenaed to testify before the congressional…

A FURIOUS Florida man allegedly pumped a pistol into his son’s face at point blank range because he didn’t visit his dying mom often enough. William Nowak, 84, of Palm Bay, was charged with attempted murder. Nowak lived with his 85-year-old wife, who had recently been put on in-home hospice care, and their 62-year-old disabled daughter. “He has been taking care of both of them,” according to court documents. When his son and his wife arrived at the home, Nowak verbally blasted them for not having visited over the weekend, despite the couple’s weekly trips to the house, the arrest affidavit states. When the angry dad and son began to argue, Nowak allegedly said, “Get out of my house or I’m going to shoot you.” Moments after making the threat,…

PANCREATIC CANCER BREAKTHROUGH BRINGS NEW HOPE A NEW study found that pancreatic cancer cells coat themselves in a sugar “casing” to hide from the immune system. But now Northwestern Medicine researchers have developed an antibody therapy that can circumvent the “hiding” mechanism. The research offers new hope to pancreatic cancer patients, who face a five-year survival rate of just 13 percent. Nearly 52,000 people die of the disease every year, according to the National Cancer Institute. Normal cells have a coating of a sugar called sialic acid on their surfaces that signals to the immune system, “don’t harm me.” The Northwestern scientists found that pancreatic tumors attach sialic-acid sugars to proteins on their surface. This sugar-coated protein can then bind to a receptor on immune cells, effectively delivering a misleading…

IN A bizarre twist, the famed criminal defense attorney representing Nick Reiner — accused killer of his showbiz icon dad, Rob Reiner, and his mom, Michele — suddenly withdrew from the case and minutes later declared that his ex-client Nick was innocent! The shocking withdrawal came just minutes before Nick was to be arraigned Jan. 7 on the knife-slaughter of his parents when defense lawyer Alan Jackson told the judge: “We would ask to withdraw as counsel of record. We have no choice but to withdraw and ask to be relieved.” Jackson, who recently got Karen Read off for the alleged murder of her boyfriend in Boston, gave no explanation for his withdrawal. However, a source says the withdrawal suggests the family has pulled financial support from Nick. The judge…

SHARON OSBOURNE Falconry Reeling from the July 22 loss of her longtime husband, Ozzy Osbourne, the 73-year-old recently revealed a new pastime that’s helping her heal. “Though I’m still finding my footing, I wanted to share some glorious creatures I had the chance to spend the afternoon with,” Sharon posted alongside a clip of her with birds of prey. Marveling at the “magical” experience, she wrote, “They’ll choose to perch on you only if they sense you are safe and unafraid of them.” MIKE TYSON Pigeon Racing “Pigeons got me out of trouble, pigeons got me into trouble, and it’s just been my whole life,” the boxing legend said of his avian hobby. The 59-year-old enters his specially bred birds in races where they are released from a distant location…
