Prabal Gurung NICKY HILTON VS RACHEL BROSNAHAN We prefer the way Rachel paired this rose-printed Prabal Gurung skirt with a solid knit top. Nicky’s matchy-matchy floral shirt is just too much.

Ellen Pompeo’s trading in her scrubs for some dancing shoes! The Grey’s Anatomy star, 50, is working on a secret project with RuPaul and her close pal, choreographer Yanis Marshall, who’s famous for performing head-spinning routines in 6-inch stilettos. “Ellen’s been trying to do a dance competition show for years,” shares a source. “Now it’s turned into a docuseries and she couldn’t be happier.” The erstwhile Meredith Grey posted a casting call on her Instagram for advanced-level dancers whose passion for dance has made them feel like an outcast. “When people think of Ellen, they automatically conjure up Grey’s,” the source admits, “but this show is so far from that. It’s the start of a brand-new chapter for her.”…

Alicia Silverstone was well on her way to becoming the next big thing in Hollywood. Having charmed audiences as spoiled Beverly Hills teen Cher Horowitz in Clueless, she was cast alongside George Clooney in 1997’s Batman & Robin — but it wasn’t long before Tinsel-town took its toll on the budding actress. There were reports that Alicia, then 21, was struggling to fit into her skintight Batgirl suit and the paparazzi did not hold back, shouting “Hey, Fatgirl!” as they chased her through airports. “If you had told me that acting meant I was going to be called fat and have to do things a certain way, then I was like, ‘F off,’” Alicia, now 43, has said. “I had no interest in being famous and maintaining any kind of…

While most new parents struggle during the first few months, overworked and sleep-deprived, Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden have only grown closer since welcoming their daughter, Raddix, in January. “I’m so grateful and so happy and it’s the best thing ever. We’re just having the best time,” the retired actress, 47, gushed on Instagram Live. “After we do bath time with our baby and we put her to sleep, Benji puts her to bed. He’s so good. He’s such an amazing father.” The couple weren’t always so sure they would become parents, though it wasn’t for lack of trying. Sources say the There’s Something About Mary star and the Good Charlotte rocker, 41, struggled to get pregnant for years. “Now that they have Rad, well, they just can’t get enough…

Lori Loughlin’s attempt to get a judge to drop all charges related to the college admissions scandal backfired in a big way. Attorneys for the 55-year-old actress claimed that she and husband Mossimo Giannulli thought they were making a legitimate donation to the University of Southern California when they cut a check for $500,000. In response, federal prosecutors released photos (see box) of Lori’s daughters Isabella, 21, and Olivia Jade, 20, on rowing machines, as well as emails sent by Mossimo, 56, in which he seemingly laughs about their crimes. And now, a source tells Life & Style, the Full House alum “has heard from her legal team that she could spend 10 years in prison” for attempting to bribe officials. “Lori never imagined this would be the outcome. Her…

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but Lady Gaga doesn’t see it that way. The “Poker Face” singer, 34, fears Dua Lipa is trying to steal her sound, as well as her fan base, after the British star’s new album, Future Nostalgia, was crowned one of the best pop releases of the year — with critics praising the 24-year-old for tackling “sex, inequality and empowerment, all with a little disco shimmy.” Sound familiar? “Gaga thinks Dua’s following a little too closely in her footsteps,” shares an insider, “and doesn’t like that they’re both using the same producers and engineers.” However, Dua and her camp “insist that Gaga’s the true copycat,” dishes the insider, noting that Mother Monster’s pumping out disco-infused bops like “Stupid Love” on her upcoming…

What’s one more? Already a mom of four, Heidi Klum is hoping to have another baby with new hubby Tom Kaulitz. The Tokio Hotel guitarist, 30, “is always telling Heidi how much he wants for them to have a child together,” a source tells Life & Style, and with Helene, 15, Henry, 14, Johan, 13, and Lou, 10, needing her less and less, “Heidi loves the idea of having a baby in her life again.” The Making the Cut host “has to be realistic, of course,” the source says. “She might need some assistance. If they can’t get pregnant the old-fashioned way, she’ll go the IVF or surrogate route.”…

Kim Kardashian is desperate to get in Meghan Markle’s good graces. The 39-year-old reality star has publicly praised the royal’s charity work, defended her and Prince Harry in the press and even, according to an insider, asked Serena Williams to schedule a meeting. “Serena’s close with both Kim and Meghan, so naturally she wants them to meet, too,” explains the insider, “but Meghan doesn’t want anything to do with that family.” Although the Kardashians may consider themselves American royalty, Meghan’s the one with the duchess title, which she’s used to set up double dates with Jennifer Lopez and attend movie premieres with Beyoncé. “It’s a strategic move on Meghan’s part,” notes the insider of snubbing Kim. “Serena thinks Meghan’s being silly, not to mention rude, and it’s putting a strain…

Being trapped together in close quarters can be tough on any family. But for Kelly Ripa and her eldest kids, quarantine is causing more tension than anyone bargained for. A strict parent to begin with, the morning show host has become increasingly annoyed with Michael, 22, and Lola, 18, since they moved back in with her, dad Mark Consuelos, 49, and brother Joaquin, 17. “Kelly has a stern parenting style,” confirms a source. “Her attitude is, ‘I’m your mother, not your friend,’ and if she sees bad behavior, she’s going to call it out.” But she may be taking it overboard. In recent weeks, Kelly, 49, has been nagging Lola and Michael nonstop, and humiliating them by taking her complaints on-air to Live With Kelly and Ryan. “She’s become downright…
