Lights in night skies (5)

I believe the answer is:

stars

(Other definitions for stars that I've seen before include "Horoscope (colloq.)" , "''What is the ...? What is the ...? '' (Juno and the Paycock)" , "Celebs - constellation" , "Leading performers (with stripes?)" , "Leading actors" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
