"They’ve blocked each other’s numbers and are badmouthing each other to anyone who’ll listen. The tension is reaching fever pitch."

At the centre of the rivalry is Melissa’s jealousy over Aussie star Rebel’s meteoric rise to international fame.

"Rebel is younger, funnier and more popular than Melissa at the moment, so she’s getting all the attention. And Melissa can’t stand it. She’s blowing off steam
about Rebel all over Hollywood. She can’t stand her!"
