Lady Gaga is asking Pippa Middleton for tips on how to act like a royal.

The pop singer reportedly wants the socialite - sister to the Duchess of Cambridge, who is married to Britain's Prince William - how to conduct herself with more grace, after reading her new book on party planning, Celebrate.

A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Gaga is obses­sed with the royal family and espec­ially with Pippa.

"She was so desperate to get her hands on Pippa's Celebrate book she had aides ship it to her via courier to Puerto Rico where she was performing earlier this week.

"She hopes it will help her throw better parties and teach her how to be more like a member of the royal family."

Gaga, 26, is also said to be keen to strike up a friendship with Pippa.

The source added: "By reading the book Gaga hopes it will give them something to talk about should they ever meet up.

"She would love to get pally with Pippa. She's been intrigued by her since the royal wedding."

Gaga has made no secret of her affections for the royal family, previously saying the late Princess Diana was one of the "most important" people in her life growing up, and writing a song in tribute to her, Princess Die.

Meanwhile, Pippa, 29, has been spotted dating two hunky bankers in the space of a week. She stepped out with Tom Kingston on Thursday, visiting private members club LouLou, days after she was spotted dining with James Matthews, a chief executive of Eden Rock Capital Management Group.

Pippa has been single since splitting from long-term boyfriend Alex Loudon last year.
