Celebrities love an overshare, don’t they? After all, they’re born for the spotlight – and so, there’s a certain symbiosis between living their every move in the public eye, packing on PDAs with their equally famous paramour, and – more often than not – wearing too little and saying too much. And, for the most part, we love to hear it. There’s really a sense of order in the world that comes from learning that Prince Harry once had a frostbitten penis, or that Mila Kunis and her husband Ashton Kutcher don’t like to wash themselves, or their kids, with soap every day. But it’s when celebrities start disclosing their intimate bedroom moments that we really start paying attention. Maybe it’s because, like everything they do, there’s an aspirational quality to their antics – or maybe it’s because we’re all just supremely nosy. Either way, we love to hear it.

Putting the X in Xtina 

She’s long been the poster girl for getting Dirrty, but Christina Aguilera outdid herself last year during an episode of Call Her Daddy, when she decided to speak up on issues that matter most. “Swallowing is really a good thing…it’s got a lot of protein,” said the 43 year old, making us all potentially lose our lunch in the process. “There is something to be said [for doing it] after you put in the hard work.”

Before their (sort of) split, Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith were extremely open about their sex life. In one steamy confession back in 2010, the actress, 52, admitted that she and Will, 55, who confirmed last year that they’ve been separated since 2016, did the deed in a limo while on the way to the Academy Awards. “Will started looking at me in this way that drives me wild. We started kissing passionately, and the next thing I knew, well, let’s just say we missed the red carpet and I ended up with almost no makeup on,” she said.

Chrissy Teigen and husband John Legend are members of the Mile High Club, she confessed in 2014. “We were on our way to Thailand to see my parents, flying commercial first-class. We were under a blanket. We weren’t even in one of those pod things. I feel like we should get a trophy for that,” Chrissy, 38, who wed John, 45, in 2013 said. “We’re by no means freaky-deaky, but let’s just say, we’re open to things. We’re very okay with PDA. When we go to a restaurant, he loves when I wear a dress, so he can do some upper-thigh rubbing.”

Kim Kardashian admitted that she and ex-boyfriend Pete Davidson once had sex in front of a fireplace in “honour” of her grandma. During an episode of The Kardashians, Kim, 43, who split from the 30-year-old comedian in August 2022 after nine months of dating, told her grandmother Mary Jo Campbell, “You know what’s so crazy? Pete and I were staying at the Beverly Hills Hotel last weekend, and we were sitting in front of the fireplace just talking for hours. I was like, ‘My grandma told me that you really live life when you have sex in front of the fireplace’, and so we had sex in front of the fireplace in honour of you.” She added, “I know that’s really creepy. How creepy to think about your grandma before you have sex?”

Eva Longoria revealed her secret to improving her sex life – by getting a Brazilian wax. “It’s like the difference between this [she pats her arm lightly] and this [rubs her arm]. I swear by it,” the 49-year-old actress said in 2015. “Every woman should try a Brazilian wax once. And then the sex they have afterward will make them keep coming back!”

While dating her Twilight co-star Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart revealed they loved each other’s scents – so much so that he used to lick her armpits. “I love the way [Robert] smells. And him me. Like, he loves to lick under my armpits,” the 34-year-old, who dated Robert, 39, from 2009 until 2013, shared. “I don’t get this obsession with washing the smell off. That smell of someone you love. Don’t you think that’s the whole point?”

Nick Cannon previously left his then-wife Mariah Carey unimpressed when he publicly revealed they used to make love to her music. But following their split in 2016 after eight years of marriage, the 43-year-old repeated the confession – and took it one step further by naming the song.

“I’ve answered this question while I was married – mistake! She didn’t like the fact that I told the world that we have sex to her music, but it was true!” he said of Mariah, 55. “Can you imagine having sex with Mariah Carey while Mariah Carey is playing in the back? Sorry, Mariah. I said I wasn’t going to say that again.”
Admitting the song was Hero, he added, “That was some serious love-making, if you’re making love to Hero.”

Everyone has their own seduction technique – and Lily Allen’s husband, David Harbour, is no exception. According to the singer, their spark originates with some very “intense” hand stroking. “We’d been out for dinner a couple of times and then the third time I went out with him we went to the theatre to go and see The Lehman Trilogy,” said the 39 year old, who married David, 49, in 2020. “It’s a very long play, it’s in three parts, there’s two intervals. I think it was in the first bit of the play, the first third, he just like grabbed my hand and started stroking it – almost like f***ing it with his hand or something.”

She continued, “It was the most intense thing. And then he whispered in my ear… Shall we just get out of here?’ It was really hard to get tickets to this play as well. And then we left – and the rest was history.”

Comedian Chelsea Handler got candid about having a threesome with her boyfriend Ted Harbert and their female masseuse. While she described it as a “fun” experience, the 49-year-old – who dated NBC chairman Ted, 69, from 2006 to 2010 – also admitted it caused her to have an epiphany about their relationship.
“I was very turned on by this woman,” she said. “I ended up hooking up with her several times without the guy that I was dating. That’s when I knew it was time to break up with the guy.”
