SCALE-SQUASHING Russell Crowe is in a potbelly panic and so desperate to lose his bulging gut he’s going for an emergency liposuction, blab sources.

The 5-foot-10 superstar has been pumping iron to buff up his bod, but he still weighs a staggering 300 pounds and is losing the battle of the bulge, insiders say.
