1. Cher told Dax Shepard that his wife, Kristen Bell, could do better than him.

"Who would be your dream partner for her?" Dax asked Cher during an episode of his Armchair Expert podcast. "'Cause I know you think she could [do] better, and I don't disagree." Cher replied, "The truth is, I trust her. So you must have something that I don't see."

Later, Dax tried to convince Cher he was a good husband. "I'll tell you the thing that you should like about me," he said. "I'm not threatened by her shining. Love it. The shinier she gets, the better." Cher added about her current boyfriend, Alexander "A.E." Edwards, "The more I shine, the more he has won."

2. Former SNL cast member Chris Redd opened up about dating fellow SNL star Kenan Thompson's ex-wife.

Chris described his relationship with Christina Evangeline, who divorced Kenan in 2022, as "a very unique, nuanced thing." He shared that Christina was "the only one to call me on my shit, help me with my therapy journey, and she told me things about her life that made me look at a lot of people involved differently."

Chris also revealed that he and Kenan discussed his relationship with Christina and continued working together for a year before "everybody found out and shit changed." He said, "I did choose love, and that's what this story is. It made me look terrible to people that I love, and a lot of my fans."

3. Amanda Seyfried claimed that Channing Tatum peed on her during the filming of the 2010 movie Dear John.

She recounted to Deadline, "He peed on my leg on the beach, and I didn't realize at first. Then I was like, oh, that's why he's standing so close to me. There was a coffee cup nearby, and a little bit got in it. He ran away as I was screaming. One of the makeup artists almost drank it, but I saved her."

4. Dax Shepard said he offered to pay for his daughter's egg freezing once she turns 18, even though she is currently only 11.

On an episode of his Armchair Expert podcast, he said, "I was just telling the girls on our vacation... [Delta] was saying how she can’t wait to have a baby, which she’s gonna really do well. She’s saying she wants to have a baby, and I said, ‘When do you think you’ll have your first child? When you turn 18?’ I want to be supportive of whatever. I don’t want to plant any seeds that I’d be judgmental or whatever. I said, ‘If you want to, we’ll freeze your eggs when you’re 18. I’ll pay for you to get your eggs frozen so you don’t have to think about that.’"

5. Kathy Griffin revealed she has a feud with Jon Hamm.

During an appearance on Owen Thiele's In Your Dreams podcast, she said, "So I’m at [talent manager] Sue Mengers’s party and she would have us eat around the coffee table instead of the dining table, which was even more intimate. Hammy was wasted, so he’s next to me in my ear and he’s going, ‘You’re so old. What’s it like to be so old? You know your Emmys are fake Emmys?’ And I go, ‘No, Hammy, and you don’t even have an Emmy.’" Kathy added she "never forgave" Jon for those remarks.

6. Zayn Malik said he’s unsure if he was truly in love with Gigi Hadid.

While appearing on the Call Her Daddy podcast, he said, "At that moment in time, I might have thought it was love, but as I got older, I realized maybe it wasn’t. Maybe it was lust, maybe it was this, maybe it was that? I don’t feel like it was love...Just to say this on record, I will always love G because she is the reason my child is on this earth, and I have the utmost respect for her. But I don’t know if I was ever in love with her."

7. Barack Obama said he believes aliens are real.

He told Brian Tyler Cohen, "They're real, but I haven't seen them, and they're not being kept in uh, what is it, Area 51. There's no underground facility, unless there's this enormous conspiracy and they hid it from the president of the United States."

He later clarified, "Statistically, the universe is so vast that the odds are good there’s life out there. But the distances between solar systems are so great that the chances we’ve been visited by aliens is low, and I saw no evidence during my presidency that extraterrestrials have made contact with us. Really!"

8. Liza Minnelli alleged that the Oscars forced her to use a wheelchair while appearing with Lady Gaga in 2022.

In her memoir Kids, Wait Till You Hear This!, she wrote, "I was inexplicably ordered — not even asked — to sit in a wheelchair or not appear at all. I was told it was because of my age, and for safety reasons, because I might slip out of the director’s chair, which was bullshit."

She also claimed, "My co-presenter insisted she would not go on stage with me unless I was in a wheelchair," seemingly referring to Lady Gaga. "I was heartbroken... I was much lower down than I would have been in the director’s chair. Now I couldn’t easily read the teleprompter above me. How would you feel if you were wheeled out, against your will, to perform in front of a live audience, and unable to see clearly?"

9. Mark Wahlberg faced an awkward question about his past on The View.

Joy Behar asked, "What was the worst thing you did?" referring to Mark's early years and his felony assault conviction from the late 1980s. Whoopi Goldberg interrupted, "Joy — you know what, I'm not going to let you ask that question," to which Joy replied, "What? He doesn't have to answer it!"

Mark responded, "Well, that's a long list. The worst thing that I did was probably follow others when I should have been more of a leader, but that's very difficult to do at a young age when you're easily influenced and in a bad area."

10. Tim Gunn revealed he has been celibate for 43 years.

During a recent appearance on Chelsea Handler's Dear Chelsea podcast, Tim said, "I had a very serious nine-year relationship in Washington, DC, and I loved this person deeply and would have done anything for him. And I still remember the night that it all ended."

He continued, "One of the things that he told me that night was that he’d been sleeping with just about everything that walked by, and I had been loyal and faithful to him. He was the only person I’d ever been with... Whenever I was even tempted to engage in something that could become serious with someone, all this would come back like Niagara Falls, and it would just take the desire away."

11. Lisa Rinna alleged that Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire tried to "hit up" her daughters, Amelia and Delilah.

When asked by Andy Cohen, "Has Leo ever hit up either of your girls?" Lisa replied, "Yes... Didn't happen, but yes," adding that Tobey Maguire, a friend of Leo's, had also tried to contact them.

12. Jessie Buckley said she gave her husband an ultimatum to get rid of his cats.

She said, "When my husband and I started dating, he had two cats... This is bad, I’m gonna get canceled. I was like, ‘It’s me or the cats.’ I won!" Jessie later clarified her comments after some backlash, stating, "For all cat lovers in the world, I am a lover of cats."

13. Finally, Kelly Clarkson claimed she never received her American Idol prize money after winning the show's first season.

She said, "I literally was on the show, and they were like, ‘Oh, you win a million dollars’ or whatever. No, you didn’t. It was, like, a million dollars worth of investment in you. And then they said you get a car, and I needed it ‘cause my car was bashed in, and I couldn’t afford the deductible. No! I did not get a car!"
