JOEL & NICOLE Marriage Milestone On Dec. 11, Joel Madden and Nicole Richie celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary. According to the House of Harlow 1960 designer, the secret to her long-lasting marriage with the Good Charlotte rocker, 41, is sharing the same values. “[Being] with somebody else who has the same goals as you is a really fun way to live,” Richie, 39, previously told Us, adding: “It’s nice doing the journey of life together.” HEATHER & TAREK Dressed to Impress It looks like bride-to-be Heather Rae Young is in full planning mode!

Brave Confession

FKA twigs was finally ready to share her story. On Dec. 11, the 32-year-old singer (born Tahliah Barnett) filed a lawsuit in L.A. accusing ex Shia LaBeouf of sexual battery, assault and emotional distress. In the paperwork, FKA detailed disturbing stories about their tumultuous year-long romance, including one incident in which LaBeouf, 34, woke her up by choking her and another in which he knowingly gave her an STD. SPEAKING OUT In response, LaBeouf, who has struggled with alcoholism and been arrested in the past for assault and disorderly conduct, claimed that many of the allegations made against him “are not true,” but agreed to “accept accountability” for his actions. FKA, however, says she wants other victims to know they’re not alone. “My second worst nightmare is being forced to share…

Brave Confession

SIA The Aussie claimed LaBeouf “conned” her “into an adulturerous relationship.” She also added that FKA’s story was “very corageous.” MATT HEALY Following the reveal, the 1975 rocker called his girlfriend of less than a year a “legend, icon and [love of my life]” in an Instagram post. OLIVIA WILDE The actress and director showed her support for the Brit on social media, three months after LaBeouf exited her upcoming Don’t Worry Darling movie. MANDY MOORE “I’m… grateful for your courage, fortitude and vulnerability,” said the This Is Us star, who was once in an alleged abusive relationship herself. TESS HOLLIDAY “I know the fear, I know the shame, but I know the light on the other side,” shared the model, who’s a victim of sexual assault.…

Despite apologizing and taking responsibility for her toxic workplace allegations earlier this year, Ellen DeGeneres is still having problems bouncing back. A recent report claims that the TV host is struggling to book A-list guests on her daytime talk show and is losing ratings and advertisers as well. Making matters worse, filming has been on pause ever since DeGeneres, 62, tested positive for Covid-19. While it seems she’s hit rock bottom, a source insists that the show is not “suffering” and that DeGeneres is “focused on leading with kindness even during hard times.” Adds a second insider says: “This horrible experience has opened her eyes to what’s important.”…

From Bad to Worse

Kelly Clarkson and Brandon Blackstock’s divorce is getting uglier by the minute. Weeks after being granted primary physical custody of their kids, the 38-year-old is claiming that her estranged hubby, 44, and his management team — who she worked under for 13 years — defrauded her out of millions by charging her outlandish fees. (As previously reported, Starstruck Management Group alleged Clarkson owes them $1.4 million.) The singer, however, is not giving in so easily. According to court documents, she’s seeking all the fees she paid over the years.…

JOHNNY DEPP LEGAL DRAMA

Johnny Depp’s courtroom woes are far from over! Not only is the actor, 57, gearing up for an appeal in his U.K. libel case — in which he was labeled a “wife beater” — but he’s also preparing for a volatile court battle against his ex-wife Amber Heard. (Depp filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit after the actress, 34, detailed her experience as an alleged abuse victim in a 2018 op-ed.) And according to a new report, this case — which is set to begin in Virginia in early 2021 — could get a whole lot uglier than its British counterpart. The reason? Depp will be forced to turn over all communication he’s had with former costars Angelina Jolie, Marion Cotillard and Keira Knightley, whom he allegedly had romantic relations…

A Princess BETRAYED

On Nov. 20, 1995, almost 23 million people gathered in front of their television sets to watch the Princess of Wales open up like never before. Speaking to BBC reporter Martin Bashir from her living room at Kensington Palace, an uncensored Diana lifted the lid on her life as a royal, detailing the extreme isolation she felt and revealing the truth about her troubled relationship with estranged husband Prince Charles (she famously quipped “there were three of us in the marriage, so it was a bit crowded,” about his ongoing affair with Duchess Camilla). “Never before had a member of the royal family been so frank and honest,” Diana’s former friend and butler, Paul Burrell, tells Us. “It was unprecedented.” The fallout was swift and harsh. Queen Elizabeth II demanded Diana…

HER MOST SHOCKING ADMISSIONS

CHARLES WAS JEALOUS Diana was beloved by the public, much to Charles’ great unhappiness, she told Bashir. “With the media attention came a lot of jealousy. A great deal of complicated situations arose.” POSTPARTUM STRUGGLES She says she got little support when she felt low following William’s 1982 birth. “Maybe I was the first person ever to be in this family who ever had a depression.” CHARLES WANTED A DAUGHTER She admitted Charles was disappointed that Harry wasn’t a girl, but told Bashir two boys had been better than two girls by royal standards: “It would have been a little tricky.” EATING DISORDER DETAILS Diana confirmed her bulimia to Bashir. “You inflict it upon yourself because your self-esteem is at a low ebb, and you don’t think you’re worthy or valuable.” SEPARATE LIVES “[When] we went abroad we had…

BEHIND THE SCENES OF HOME ALONE

1 Screenwriter John Hughes was inspired to write Home Alone after seeing Macaulay Culkin’s performance in Uncle Buck. And although he wrote the part of Kevin McCallister specifically for the young actor, the film’s director, Chris Columbus, still auditioned hundreds of children for the role before giving it to the up-and-comer. 2 Kevin’s famous scream scene was improvised! “That was not written the way Macaulay performed it,” Columbus revealed. “But on the first take, he… kept his hands glued to his face, and his hands stayed completely still as he screamed like the Edvard Munch painting. That’s why he was such an interesting kid: No one else would have done that.” 3 Let it snow! The crew used potato flakes and fans to make it look like it was blizzarding for the…

Fancify Your Look! Fleur du Mal creative director Jennifer Zuccarini tells Us how to dress up pjs • Get Glam. “Start by doing your hair and makeup as if you were going out,” says the pro. • Accessorize. “Silk pajamas tend to look a bit more elevated than cotton or flannel but regardless, throw on some jewelry and a kitten heel or mule,” she advises. • Know your audience. “For a girls’ night, choose fun colors or prints,” she offers. Doing date night? Top a slip with a kimono.

The Midnight Sky

George Clooney has said that his latest starring-and-directorial effort is like Gravity meets The Revenant. He’s not wrong in terms of plot and ambitious cinematic scope — but his film can’t match those classics’ harrowing, edge-of-your-seat quality. Instead, this is an ultra-sobering post-apocalyptic account of an ailing scientist left behind in a frozen Arctic station to help his peers make a new start in space. While attempting to warn communications officer (Felicity Jones) and her shuttle crew to not return to Earth because of its inhabitable state, he happens upon a young girl stowaway. The drama toggles between the survival on land and in space, with the former the more captivating arc. It’s also not quite as deep thematically as it aims to be. Still, what a thrill to see…

Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom

Chadwick Boseman’s final performance — as a brash, ambitious and hot-headed trumpeter — is his most magnificent. On a 1927 day in a Chicago recording studio, Boseman’s Levee and three bandmates await the arrival of a blues singer known as Ma Rainey (Viola Davis). It’s obvious from the outset that there’s tension between Levee and the others; he knows he’s got the goods and naively believes that the head of the music company wants to record his compositions. Boseman plays the role as a simmering volcano, pushing everyone to the edge with his bravado until the inevitable eruption. Underneath, he admits he still has scars to bear. This adaptation will hold up as a testament to Boseman’s immense talent. MR…

Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom

Ashley Tisdale never thought she’d venture into reality TV, but when she was offered the opportunity to be a panelist on The Masked Dancer (Fox, Dec. 27), she couldn’t say no. “I love The Masked Singer [and] I have a dance background,” the star, who’s currently pregnant with her first child, tells Us. “My baby gets to experience all this amazing music and performances!” NOT AN EASY TASK Although she and judges Brian Austin Green, Ken Jeong and Paula Abdul have a blast — “I can’t stop laughing,” says Tisdale — the show’s extremely hard. “The worst guesser is definitely me,” she admits “I [am] shocked every single time [a celeb is revealed]!”…
