GLOBE’S NO-NONSENSE OPINION PAGE IN ONE of his hilarious satires, comic legend Mel Brooks plays King Louis XVI, who’s seen enjoying his absolute power by shooting peasants for sport, then declaring: “It’s good to be the king!” Well, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex haven’t gone quite that far — yet — but Prince Harry basically admitted in his book, Spare, he and wife Meghan are entitled to things regular folks are not — and they actually tattled on an aide, who did what THEY do, not as they order. It’s normal procedure for Britain’s billionaire royal family to turn down gifts and freebies so they don’t look greedy. But that tradition was lost on Meghan, who Harry admits accepted free stuff, including a pair of diamond earrings from a…

DISGRACED Donald Trump is embroiled in another shocking sex scandal as longtime valet Walt Nauta — his criminal co-defendant charged with the mishandling of classified documents — was accused of sexual misconduct by multiple White House staffers!

DESPERATE Britney Spears has coughed up a whopping $50 million to greedy ex-hubby Sam Asghari in a frantic attempt to keep her mental health problems under wraps and avoid risking a new court-ordered conservatorship, say sources. The Toxic songbird, 42, scrapped an iron-clad prenup after toyboy Sam agreed not to dish on Britney’s cheating, drug abuse and all-around insanity during their 14-month marriage — revelations that could prove her family was right to control her every move, the sources add. “Britney wants to buy Sam’s silence and she’s willing to pay dearly for it,” confides an insider. “She wants to bury their past together, along with the secrets he collected!” Those secrets, according to insiders, are said to include Britney’s: • Mental unraveling since the conservatorship was lifted; • Violent…

EXPERTS have discovered the shocking causes behind the tragic plane crash that killed rock star Buddy Holly, two other rising musicians and their pilot 65 years ago.

Civil Aeronautics Board experts say gusty winds, freezing temps and “complete darkness” forced the pilot to “rely solely on “fluctuating” instruments. They believe he got “confused and thought that he was making a climbing turn when in reality he was making a descending turn” and flew straight…

AFTER serving time for her rap in the Varsity Blues college bribery scandal, former Desperate Housewives star Felicity Huffman is singing the blues — moaning her life’s “been hard” and she’s barely working. The 61-year-old spent 11 days in the slammer for paying a $15,000 bribe in 2019 to boost the SAT scores of her then-teen daughter Sophia so the kid could get into a grade-A college.

COMEDY creep Bill Cosby has been slammed with yet another horrific sexual abuse lawsuit — this time by a virginal teenager who claims she was drugged and raped in a Sin City hotel room in 1986! According to the new civil lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas, the Jell-O Pudding Pops peddler targeted Chelan Lasha, who was 15 at the time, after seeing a fetching photo of her — and buttered up the kids in the girl’s north Las Vegas neighborhood with the frozen treats before offering to help her snag a modeling contract. The dirtbag — who has been accused of rape, sexual assault and sexual harassment by more than 60 other women — was notoriously sprung from prison on a technicality after only three years…
