HEARTBROKEN Sandra Bullock has quit looking for love following the devastating death of her sweetheart Bryan Randall, according to pals, who say he’s the first thing she thinks of in the morning and the last thing she thinks of at night. Courageous photog Randall, 57, passed away in August following an agonizing three-year battle with ALS — an incurable nerve disease that destroys control of muscles for movement and breathing. Now, the distraught 59-year-old Ocean’s 8 beauty says she doesn’t see another romance in her near future, say insiders. “It took Sandra a long time to trust and fall in love with Bryan,” says a source. “They were together for eight years when Bryan was diagnosed with ALS. Sandra took care of him and was by his side when he died.…

MENTAL mess Jeffrey Surgent butchered his mom, decapitated her corpse and was found nude and covered with blood while lying on her headless body, say stunned cops. The bizarre bloodbath was discovered after the 46-year-old Ocean City, N.J., man called 911 at 4 p.m. on Dec. 8 and coolly told the horrified dispatcher “he suffers from a mental illness, and he just killed his mother,” according to a police report. Officers found a gruesome scene resembling a slasher flick when they entered the hallway of an apartment building owned by the local housing authority. Officials say naked, gore-drenched Surgent was singing the religious tune Jesus Loves Me as he sprawled on the body of his 74-year-old mother, Alexandria, with her severed head just a few feet away. Sources say chilling…

FIRED Good Morning America stud T.J. HOLMES wants to make an honest woman out of his homewrecking sex partner and former GMA co-star, AMY ROBACH, but insiders say she now isn’t sure she wants to marry the horndog, especially after his insulting proposal. T.J. gave her a “tiny box” — hint: engagement ring — over the holidays, saying on their podcast, “I want to marry you, in part, because you’re 50 and I’m 46. And I’m very sick of introducing a 50-year-old woman as my girlfriend.” Apparently, the idiot doesn’t know you’re not supposed to talk about a gal’s age — especially if she is older and has been showing bags under her eyes. Amy gave the dolt a curt answer, saying marriage is “under consideration” but “not something we’re…

CRAVEN Kid Rock has ended his half-baked boycott against Bud Light, saying, “I think they got the message” — after his shenanigans served to flatten the beer’s profits and he was caught swigging the suds anyway! The aging rocker, 52, famously taped himself shooting up bottles of the brew last April to protest the brand partnering with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. “I don’t think the punishment that they’ve been getting at this point fits the crime,” admits Kid.…

WOLVES have been the source of terror in myths and fairy tales, but after nearly being wiped out, U.S. wildlife agents are trying to bring the predators back despite fierce opposition from ranchers! Last month, Colorado Parks and Wildlife workers cheered as five gray wolves — rehomed from Oregon — were set free in a remote region of the state following years of being hunted and killed. “We’ll continue releasing animals based on our plan to have wolves not just survive but thrive in Colorado as they did a century ago,” vows Parks and Wildlife boss Jeff Davis. But the program, calling to unleash another 50 wolves in the next five years, is opposed by ranchers, who fear they will ravage their herds as they did before they were eradicated from the…

COUGAR Mariah Carey is wasting no time hunting for a new toyboy cub to cuddle after being kicked to the curb by studly dancer Bryan Tanaka, pals dish. The 54-year-old Touch My Body songbird hungers for a dumb stud in his 20s who won’t be as needy as Bryan, 40, who took a hike when she refused to have kids, according to sources. “Mariah is saying Bryan became too needy and wasn’t even that great a lover, so now it’s about finding someone hotter and more controllable,” spills an insider. “Her people are discreetly finding twentysomething guys willing to follow her around and agree to signing a nondisclosure agreement even before the first blind date.” The Obsessed singer craves a guy who can serve as a toyboy and assistant all…

AN ELDERLY heir to the Hermès luxury brand dynasty has rocked the family by adopting his 51-year-old gardener — putting the groundskeeper in line for half of the tycoon’s $13.2 billion fortune! What’s more, 80-year-old Nicolas Puech has pruned the greenbacks he originally earmarked for the Isocrates Foundation, a charity he founded in 2011! But the charity is fighting the move. Puech is a fifth-generation descendant of Thierry Hermès, who in 1837 created the French fashion house known for its $30,000 Birkin bags. The reclusive Swiss resident has begun the legal process of adopting the gardener — who apparently has two children and a wife in Spain — in an unusual and controversial maneuver straight out of the hit streaming series Succession, insiders dish. It would mean the lucky landscaper may…

Son of a Sinner singer JELLY ROLL, 39, and wifey BUNNIE XO, 43, renewed their vows after seven years of marriage, admitting they were “on a bender” in Las Vegas in the middle of the night during their initial ceremony and both can’t recall when the wedding actually happened.

SOME grocery items can be a recipe for danger if they’re not eaten within a day or two of purchase or preparation, according to food safety professionals. Here are five consumables that could cause serious illness if they’re not promptly used! PEELED HARD-BOILED EGGS According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), shells help ward off bacteria — such as potentially fatal listeria. But once the protective coating is removed, microbes can more easily penetrate the more porous egg white. GROUND MEAT The USDA warns spoilage can start in as little as one day in the refrigerator! Dr. Tracey Brigman — a clinical associate professor at the University of Georgia’s Department of Nutritional Sciences — also adds these products should be thoroughly cooked to kill any bugs possibly spread during…

SCIENTISTS are telling an amazing fish story — they’ve had a 20-minute conversation with a humpback whale named Twain and say the breakthrough will teach them to speak with aliens! Eggheads with SETI Institute — dedicated to searching for extraterrestrial life — and University of California-Davis say they used a recorded “contact call” to talk to Twain, who was swimming in southeast Alaska, in her own whale language. A greeting called a “whup/throp” was broadcast from a speaker, which prompted Twain to swim to the vessel and voice her replay. “We believe this is the first such communicative exchange between humans and humpback whales in the humpback ‘language,’” says a scientist, who adds cracking the language of the highly intelligent whales will enable them to speak to aliens.…

+ Exercise good as ED pills REGULAR exercise for at least 30 minutes three times a week can improve erectile dysfunction for men as effectively as prescription pills, according to a new study.

THE shocking web of lies surrounding the recent The Golden Bachelor — and the plan to add two spinoffs — prove once again how fake reality shows are — and that shameless producers don’t give a damn as long as they can get high ratings and make big bucks. In fact, Golden Bachelor Gerry Turner, the flavor of the moment, has claimed show bigwigs encouraged him to lie to create a more dramatic story that would tug at viewers’ heartstrings. As GLOBE reported, Turner was scripted as a sad widower who hadn’t dated or kissed a gal since the tragic 2017 death of his wife, Toni, who succumbed to an infection. But after the 72-year-old got engaged on TV to contestant Theresa Nist, 70, gals surfaced claiming he was a…

COUNTRY icon Blake Shelton has ridden his boozehound image right to the top, but the The More I Drink singer is struggling to kick the sauce, and admits he’s been unable to stop! The 47-year-old former Voice coach, who once called hangovers “a badge of honor” and confesses boozing “is part of my schtick,” now wants to swear off hooch. Insiders say his health-nut wife, Gwen Stefani, 54, tells Blake his life would improve by going cold turkey. Ironically, Blake makes New Year’s resolutions to quit, but admits: “I haven’t managed to stop drinking yet. Even cutting back has been hard. I mean, it’s a resolution, though. That’s my New Year’s resolution — to either cut back or stop drinking altogether.” Still, Shelton, who owns a string of Ole Red…
