Throughout it all, Lori Loughlin has remained adamant about not pleading guilty to charges related to the college admissions scandal — charges that could land her behind bars for up to 50 years. (She and husband Mossimo Giannulli are accused of paying $500,000 to fraudulently get their daughters, Bella, 21, and Olivia Jade, 20, into the University of Southern California.) But now a new dismissal motion — filed by another defendant in the case — may work in the actress’ favor. According to court documents, the accused is claiming that it’s impossible for universities to be defrauded because admissions slots aren’t considered property. BAD NEWS But Neama Rahmani, president of West Coast Trial Lawyers, tells Us he doesn’t believe the argument will work, because property is simply “something of value,”…

HEALTHCARE HERO! During an April 2 segment of Jimmy Kimmel Live, Jennifer Aniston surprised a Utah-based nurse who’s on furlough after contracting Covid-19. “God bless you and all of you that are out there doing what you’re doing,” the actress, 51, told the healthcare worker before surprising her with a $10,000 Postmates gift card. GENEROUS GIVER Leonardo DiCaprio joins the list of celebs making big donations in response to the crisis. The actor, 45, helped launch America’s Food Fund to benefit World Central Kitchen and Feeding America with $12 million. These organizations, says DiCaprio, “have inspired us all with their unwavering commitment to feed the most vulnerable people.” MOMMY MOGULS Name a more iconic mother-daughter team than Kris and Kylie Jenner, we dare you!

Although they didn’t plan it this way, Nikki and Brie Bella, 36, feel lucky to be pregnant at the same time — even though they’re in very different stages of life. Brie’s married to Bryan Danielson (a.k.a. WWE wrestler Daniel Bryan) and is already mom to Birdie, 2. Nikki found out she was pregnant soon after becoming engaged to her boyfriend of a year, Artem Chigvintsev! The sisters, due less than two weeks apart, tell Us how they’re coping with pregnancy during the pandemic. Q: Have you all been social distancing together? NB We do coffee every morning and cook dinner every night together. We go on walks. We’re neighbors [in L.A.], so Brie and I have been isolated for a few weeks now. I’ve already had influenza B this…

Female country duo Maddie & Tae’s second album may not be what fans are expecting. The Way It Feels, the follow-up to Start Here, is more mature and highlights a different place in life for 24-year-old singers Maddie Marlow and Tae Dye. “I feel like you can hear the changes we’ve experienced going from teenagers to adult women in the new record,” Marlow says, noting that the first album was done in four months, while the second took four years. “We’re in a completely different chapter of life now,” adds Dye. “We’re wives, we’re wise and we’re confident.” TOUR LIFE Though the women would love to collaborate with Harry Styles or Lizzo one day, they also feel it’s been a dream to join Carrie Underwood and Dierks Bentley on their tours.…

Kendra Wilkinson has her kids’ seal of approval when it comes to her sense of style. The former reality star’s 5-year-old daughter, Alijah, is an especially big fan of her mom’s looks. “She loves to play around in my closet,” the Being Kendra author, 34, tells Us. That’s why the little one was so excited to hear about the Kendra Wilkinson x ShoeDazzle collection. “That means even more shoes for her to play with!” jokes the Girls Next Door alum, who also has a son, Hank, 10, with ex Hank Baskett. She fills Us in on her little fashionistas. Q: Have you ever gone to Alijah for fashion advice? I always ask my kids what their favorite outfit is before I head out the door. Q: What about the other…

Christina Anstead doesn’t sweat the small stuff. After divorcing husband and Flip or Flop co-star Tarek El Moussa (below) in 2018, “I’m more calm,” the HGTV star, 36, tells Us. “It takes a lot to bother me now. It feels nice to just be settled.” Anstead — coauthor of The Wellness Remodel: A Guide to Rebooting How You Eat, Move and Feed Your Soul with Cara Clark (out April 14) — credits meditation for her positive outlook. “Postdivorce, I felt like my head was spinning,” she says, adding that when she began meditating, “it was the best feeling ever.” Maintaining a healthy lifestyle by working out and eating right has also been helpful. In fact, she and her ex’s girlfriend, Heather Rae Young, exchange recipes. “We all get along,” Anstead…

“AS A HAITIAN WOMAN, THE MOMENT YOU COME OUT OF THE WOMB, YOU’RE COOKING.” For Beauvais, cooking for others is the perfect way to show affection. “It’s how you say you love someone,” she tells Us.

Yael Braun is teaching her kids young. The F**k Cancer founder is working to fight gender stereotypes in her own household, starting with her three little ones. “My sons would come home from school like, ‘Boys don’t do that. Your favorite color is pink because you’re a girl.’ And I’m like, ‘Actually, Mommy likes dark blue, and you can like whatever color you like,’” the businesswoman, 33, who’s married to Scooter Braun, explains to Us. She and Scooter know that norms run deeper than color preferences, though, so they tell Jagger, 5, and Levi, 3, that they’re allowed to cry just like their 16-month-old sister, Hart, does. Says Yael, “We believe men and women, boys and girls, are equally strong, smart and capable.” And she teaches by example. “There are…

Channing Tatum and Jessie are back on the market. The couple have called it quits for a second time, Us can confirm. (Us previously broke the news in December that Tatum and Jessie split after dating for more than a year, then got back together soon after.) According to an insider, the actor, 39, and singer, 32, tried to work out their problems but decided they were better off as friends — so the split was amicable, notes the insider. THAT WAS FAST! Now the dad (of 6-year-old daughter Everly, with ex Jenna Dewan) is ready to move on. Tatum’s already rejoined celebrity dating app Raya after setting up an account last year, adds the insider. Here’s to giving love another chance!…

1 You started your career when you were young, on the BBC soap River City. How did it prepare you for Hollywood? I hadn’t taken one acting class or [even been in a] school play before I was on the show. It was a complete crash course in acting and the mechanics of being on a set. 2 What actors do you look up to most? Ben Affleck. That guy is crazy talented in all areas. 3 How do you relate to your Green Rush character, Caleb? We’re similar in the fact that family is the most important thing to us. I differ in that I’ve never been in the marijuana business and most likely never will be! 4 Where do you hope to be in five years? I’ve always…

1. Every couple of years, when no one is around, I heat up a can of peas and eat the whole thing. 2. Growing up in Chicago, in a single-parent home with no heat in the winter, makes me appreciate every single moment, person and success in my life. 3. I’m a workaholic. I wake up at 4 a.m. every day. It drives people crazy. 4. I love dogs. Personally, I think they’re a great alternative to children. I said, personally. 5. I shot over 30 commercials before landing my first feature film role. 6. I’m tech-challenged. 7. I love to write. It’s as fulfilling as acting. 8. I wear a baseball hat almost every day because I don’t have the patience to style my hair. 9. My husband [Scott…
