In an interview forArchitectural Digestin November 2023, Robert Pattinson said: “There was a time when the only piece of furniture I had for about six months was an inflatable boat that would double as my couch, bed, and dining table.”“I loved it very much but it caused a lot of back problems.”
While promoting the movie, Jacob Elordi, who plays Elvis Presley, sat with filmmaker Sofia Coppola and Cailee Spaeny, who plays Priscilla, for anEntertainment Weeklyinterview segment in November.During this chat, they revealed that Jacob ate a pound of bacon per day to get into character.The 26-year-old actorsaid: “I averaged like a pound of bacon a day. It’s not that noticeable because I’m quite long, but I was the biggest I’ve ever been.”As the film’s director explained, Elvis loved “really burned bacon.”
During an appearance on theCall Her Daddy podcast in May 2023, Gwyneth Paltrow looked back on her dating history, which includes Ben Affleck and Brad Pitt.While podcast host Alex Cooper tried to guess the famous men that the 51-year-old actress had hooked up with, she gave Leonardo DiCaprio a hard no, as perBuzzfeed.She confessed: “Nope, never made out with Leo. He tried back in the day. But he was already like, you know, he was very loose with the goods from when he was 19.”
Speaking toRolling Stonein June 2023 about his time filming the 2010 comic book adaptation Scott Pilgrim vs The World with Aubrey Plaza, Michael Cera revealed: “Well, we were driving through Vegas and we almost just spontaneously took a detour and got married.”He further admitted: “I think the idea was to then get a divorce right away, so we could call each other ‘my ex-husband’ and ‘my ex-wife’ at like… 20 [years old].”
Gwen Stefani has used the Japanese urban “Harajuku” style in many of her projects, including beauty products and music, sparking controversies regarding cultural appropriation.Upon traveling to Japan, the singer toldAllurein January 2023: “I said, ‘My God, I’m Japanese and I didn’t know it’. I am, you know.“The 54-year-old songstress went on to explain that there is “innocence” to her relationship with Japanese culture, referring to herself as a “super fan.”
In July 2023, during an episode of the podcast Drama Queens, which the actress co-hosts with former One Tree Hill co-stars Sophia Bush and Hilarie Burton, Bethany Joy Lenz revealed: “I was in a cult for 10 years.”She continued: That would be a really valuable experience to write about, and the recovery, 10 years of recovery after that. So there’s a lot to tell.”As perVulture, Bethany said that one of the most “painful, shameful, difficult parts” is that she distanced herself from friends and family, missing many major life events.Her loyalty to the cult also reportedly caused the actress to turn down opportunities to be in “huge movies” and Broadway shows at the height of her career.She said, “Everything I’d trained for, all my childhood dreams were coming true and I said no to all of it so I could go live with this remote, small group of people, convinced I was making a noble, spiritual sacrifice.”The 42-year-old actress added: “I’ll tell you, any group that requires you to believe every detail of what they believe in order to be loved without condemnation… please run the other way. Just run.”
