Can celebrities really manifest their dream roles through style choices?
For most of history, the British royals were known for being tight-lipped and obsessively private. That all changed when Prince Harry released his 2023 memoir, 'Spare.' The tell-all autobiography goes into unprecedented detail about his sexual history, drug use, and family arguments. While many of the revelations are justifiable, and even admirable, the story of his frostbitten phallus was a bit much by anyone's standards!
Miley Cyrus isn't shy. The singer has a habit of being a little too real on social media! A few years back she posted a series of photos on Instagram that started with a hairy armpit, followed by a hairy armpit covered in wax, and, finally, a dried sheet of wax full of armpit hair. She captioned it " R.I.P P.I.T"
Millions of fans adore Adele, not only for her hair-raising vocals, but also for her down-to-earth personality. Although, she might have pushed it too far when she talked about picking her children's boogers with her fingers and flicking them across the room...
It's also well known that Adele doesn't love the spotlight and isn't a fan of touring or live performances. She once told fans about her pre-show nerves live on stage: "They told me not to talk for three songs so my nerves could calm a little," she told fans, explaining that she had diarrhea all day! "Bad bowel movements. I've had to have an Imodium."
Katy Perry has often been accused of oversharing about her relationship with Orlando Bloom. In 2018, the British actor appeared in a West End revival of Tracy Letts' play 'Killer Joe.' When he shared a promotional image of himself as the protagonist on Instagram, Perry left a cheeky comment saying, "I need a season pass for that [expletive]," complimenting her husband's behind! She quickly followed up with another comment to clarify, "Oops I meant to send that to you privately."
One night she was suffering from mastitis (a buildup of milk in the breast duct) while the couple were away from home. Bell realized that there was only one solution. “So I said to my husband, ‘I really need you to suck this out. We could talk about it, we could be weird about it, or you could just go ahead and nurse.'" Shepard did as he was told. "He was pulling out and spitting into this cup, and I’ve never been more in love. In my life.”
Kelly Clarkson's openness about her personal experiences is one of the things that make her such a successful interviewer and TV host. She welcomes celebrities onto her show and talks to them like they're two friends chatting on the couch.
While speaking to Jay Leno on his show, she shared that she was sweating up a storm in her Spanks! Simpson also frequently shared the odd dreams she had while pregnant. One was about her vagina eating a bag of Skittles...
He went on to say that his you know what "is sort of like a white supremacist," because he isn't attracted to Black women.
Oversharing seems to run in the family. Khloé Kardashian decided to share her preferred pubic hairstyle on her website in 2015, but she didn't stop there. She also shared that her sister Kim has “lasered it all off” while Kourtney keeps it “full ‘70s-style." Good to know!
Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly are perhaps the ultimate offenders when it comes to relationship overshares, but it started long before MGK was on the scene for Fox! In 2007, she told FHM that she was terrible to live with because she rarely flushed the toilet.
You'll be dismayed to learn that McDermott is also an open book. “I am a fleshlight owner,” he declared on his podcast called 'Daddy Issues.' This is just one of many sexual revelations he has made on the show!
Azealia Banks is notorious for her questionable (and sometimes downright offensive) social media content. The rapper once shared images of what appeared to be a closet covered in blood and feathers, stating that it was where she carried out animal sacrifices for witchcraft!
British TV presenter and judge of 'Britain's Got Talent,' Amanda Holden is the first to admit that she holds very little back. In a 2019 interview, she revealed that she once got so drunk that she pooped her pants! She was walking home from a night out when the incident occurred, and says her then-boyfriend took care of the offending underwear for her. "This is how much he loved me."

Since getting together with Megan Fox, Machine Gun Kelly has shared many strange stories about their relationship. Following their first Valentine's Day, he shared a photo of a vial necklace and revealed that he had started to wear Fox's blood around his neck. He also revealed that he accidentally stabbed himself in the hand while trying to impress her early in their relationship.
Doja Cat is simply unhinged on TikTok and we love it. However, when she described her tonsil infection and subsequent tonsillectomy in graphic detail, it should have come with a content warning.
Jessica Simpson has been in the public eye since she was a teen and even got her own reality show when she was 23. By the time she started having kids, she had no filter left when it came to public declarations! She has been particularly open about the nitty gritty of pregnancy.
Denise Richards once tweeted that she was looking for a massage parlor that would give her husband a happy ending! Not your usual shoutout for recommendations...
Meghan Trainor wasn't shy about sharing the story of her engagement to Daryl Sabara. Sabara proposed to Trainor while on a romantic trip in 2018. The next day, they were driving home when Trainor was struck with food poisoning and threw up all over him and the car. Trainor says she apologized to him but he replied, "I’d kiss you right now." Kind of cute, definitely gross, and probably too much information.
Actress Kaley Cuoco has been known to share selfies she's taken while sitting on the toilet!
The royal described his icy penile injury at length, focusing on the Freudian fact that an Elizabeth Arden cream he used as a salve was the same his mother (Princess Diana) used to use on her lips. “As soon as I opened it, I was transported in time. I felt as if my mother was right there in the room. Then I took a smidge and I applied it…down there.”
Cardi B keeps it real on social media, which is something that her fans love her for. While it was totally relatable when she revealed that the nerves before a red carpet event have her "farting all day," it was still a bit of an overshare.
The realities of parenthood can get pretty grim sometimes! Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard are hilariously open about the challenges they experience raising their kids. On her web series 'Momsplaining,' Bell recounted a somewhat horrifying story about a moment that really tested their relationship.
Tori Spelling once shared that she gave husband Dean McDermott charge of the razor when she was pregnant because she could no longer see past her belly to shave her nether regions.
Her honesty can be a double-edged sword at times though. It's also the reason we know that she once pooped in a trash can backstage at her own concert because she got diarrhea in the middle of a show. "Boy, I destroyed it. It was bad," she told her guest, country star Clint Black.
By his account, John Mayer is a recovering "ego addict." In his younger days, the singer was both a serial dater and a serial oversharer. In a now-infamous interview with Playboy, Mayer clearly did not know when to stop talking. Some of the most cringe-worthy quotes include describing his chemistry with then-girlfriend Jessica Simpson as "sexual napalm," saying she was like "crack cocaine." Not only did he sound like toxic masculinity incarnate, he drew unwanted attention to Simpson at a time when young female pop stars were demonized for their sexuality.
