CHEF GUY FRIED OVER BAD BOYS
UFC FOOD Network chef GUY FIERI cooked his own goose, with fans blasting him for greeting the notorious Tate brothers at an April 11 UFC mixed martial arts match.
ANDREW and TRISTAN TATE are former British kickboxing champs who are reputedly worth anywhere from $10 million to hundreds of millions for various ventures and are currently accused in England of rape and human trafficking and are also being probed for similar crimes in Romania - all of which they deny. Andrew has also been slammed as a misogynist who thinks gals belong at the beck and call of men.
Guy is being toasted for apparently being chummy with the bad boys, but he explains: “I was there to see the fights and when I was walking through the venue, the Tate brothers stood up and said hello and that’s when the exchange happened. I did not know them or about them before that moment. I’ll never pretend to be a perfect person but let me be crystal clear, I do not know the Tate brothers nor do I support them in any way.” Guy adds that the ruckus has left him “devastated.”
JELLY ROLL'S WEIGHT-LOSS SEX LOSS
JELLY ROLL’s blabbermouth wife, BUNNIE XO, is tattling that when the Wild Ones singer dropped from 565 to 300 pounds, his sex drive also took a nosedive. Jelly insists their sex life has zoomed since shedding pounds with the help of a drug, but Bunnie say that didn’t happen right away.
“When it comes to sex... Big body changes mess with your head and hormones. Add a medication that blunts appetite, and it’s not shocking libido dips too.” She noted it was “an adjustment period, not a permanent shift” and added there was a bonus - penis size! “I will tell you that it is very true that when a man loses weight, it grows a lot,” and she happily chirps that the singer is now “severely bigger!”
STAR WARS STAR TOSSED TANTRUMS
ADAM DRIVER has become a major star in big flicks like the Star Wars sequels thanks to HBO’s sitcom Girls, but LENA DUNHAM, the star and co-creator, blasts him as a jerk. In her biting memoir, Famesick, she slams the hunk, who played her boyfriend, for tossing temper tantrums and even throwing a chair near her.
During a sex scene, he ignored her instructions and “hurled me this way and that,” she recalls. “Stunned, I couldn’t speak for a moment, unsure of what had happened - had I lost directorial authority, allowed the scene to go off the rails, not given proper instructions? It wasn’t that I felt violated... But I felt that something intimate, confusing and primal had played out in a scenario I was meant to control.”
DESPERATE JENNIE CUT HER WRISTS
Former Beverly Hills, 90210 icon JENNIE GARTH, 54, has made some shocking confessions in a new memoir - she nearly offed herself during breakups with ex-hubby PETER FACINELLI and current spouse DAVE ABRAMS. During her divorce from Peter, she had to get her stomach pumped for overdosing on booze and pills, she writes. During a split with current husband Dave, who she wed in 2015, “I was in my room smashing framed pictures of me and Dave... taking the broken glass... trying to cut myself with the jagged pieces.”
She credits eldest daughter Luca, 28, one of three kids with Peter, with “stopping her.” The next morning she realized, “I was being so self-indulgent, and terrified” she’d ruined her relationship with Luca, who told her: “You can’t go on like this, Mom. We need you.”
PLANE DRAMA ... & A REALITY
TV DEATH Pals of Russian Doll star NATASHA LYONNE are reportedly fearful for the 47-year-old after sources say she was “so out of it” on an April 7 Delta flight, it had to return to the gate and she was escorted off the plane. Natasha later claimed she’d taken a sleeping pill before the flight and apologized for causing a delay. The actress previously admitted battles with sobriety and in January said she’d tumbled off the wagon. The plane problem has friends “even more fearful for her health,” says a source, and two days after, she reportedly looked “fragile” at a documentary showing. “It took everything she had just to come here, says the source.
My 600-Lb. Life star DOLLY MARTINEZ has died of congestive heart failure in a Fort Worth, Texas, hospital. The 593-pound gal was 30. Dolly, who admitted having a food addiction, needed oxygen and daily help. She had lost 40 pounds in the hopes of qualifying for weight-reduction surgery, but had not yet been approved for the op. She was rushed to the hospital March 29 with fluid on her heart and lungs, put on a ventilator and in a medically induced coma the next day, but failed to recover, says a source.
