Zendaya reveals how she freaked out when Tom Holland told her about starring in The Odyssey. "He had the script, and I may have taken a little peek. I had to know. He had a Christopher Nolan script in my house, what am I gonna do? So I looked" "Then he went off to his meeting, and when he came home, I was like, 'Okay! Tell me all about it! How was it? What was it like?' You know what I mean? I was so ready, so excited" "And he goes, 'Read this again.' And I was like, 'What? Why? We just read it last night.' He was like, 'Read it again, but with Athena in mind.' And I was like, 'Yo, stop it right there'" "I freaked out. I was so grateful. And the fact that he got to be the one to tell me, it was so special"

ADÉLA explains why she quit ballet and what it was like to move out at a young age: “I moved out when I was 14 to dance all over the place. I lived alone for 2 years and I came back and was like, “I gotta quit”. I would do 8 hours a day of ballet at school since I was 10, and then I would come home and do 5 more hours alone in my room. I was a fucking freak.”

Kron Gracie recounts his terrifying near-death experience: “I was eating breakfast—coffee and stuff—and then I started getting dizzy, so I went outside and passed out. I saw parts of my life pass in front of my face in random little clips, and then I saw the white light. I was like, oh shit, that’s the white light. Don’t go to the white light. I kind of got a glimpse of it, and that was not where I wanted to go. Then I woke up and my friend was behind me pumping my chest, and there was puke all over my jacket and everything. I opened my jacket and there was a huge steam ball that just came up. No idea what happened to this day. I went to a doctor and he said, ‘Don’t worry about it.’”

🐥 Have I ever told you about the time I had sleep paralysis? No? No? It was actually back during Boys Planet. I haven’t had it since then. It was when I was preparing the stage for Switch, which we put together in such a short time. It was one of the hardest times. I wasn’t sleeping in my usual room then. I was sharing a room with a close friend. That night, I fell asleep… and then suddenly, my eyes opened. When I opened them, that friend was sleeping while facing me with his head turned toward me. But I didn’t think much of it, just closed my eyes again. Then I opened my eyes once more and suddenly, that friend was gone! I thought “Ah, maybe he went to the bathroom.” The bathroom was over there, and I was here [middle], and he had been sleeping next to me but wasn’t anymore. So I assumed he went to the bathroom. But then I closed my eyes again and opened them… and someone was standing right in front of my bed. And it was that friend. He was standing there! And then suddenly started sliding sideways, slowly walking toward me. But my body wouldn’t move. I was trying to speak, but all I could do was stare with my eyes open. Just blinking like this. Then suddenly, that friend leaned his head toward my shoulder! Like a drill! At that moment, chills ran all over my body. He kept coming closer, like drilling into me. Then I remembered, if you get sleep paralysis, you can break out of it by starting to move your toes slowly, one by one. So I closed my eyes and started wiggling my toes little by little to wake myself up. Eventually, the paralysis broke. When I finally opened my eyes for real, my friend was right there next to me again, sleeping, facing me exactly as before. Actually… I still haven’t told that friend this story. I was scared it might bring bad luck. That was the first and only time in my life I experienced sleep paralysis. Just imagine it. Your friend is lying next to you sleeping, and suddenly, he is standing by your bed with his eyes rolled back, leaning his head toward you like a drill. That’s scary! That was the first time I ever had sleep paralysis and I haven’t had it since.

My Ring camera caught my neighbor banging on my door like a mad person. I answered and told her no one was home. She didn’t believe me and insisted I was there. Then she demanded I move my car and threatened to have it towed. At what point does this go from annoying to unhinged? How would you handle a neighbor who refuses to accept reality?

Selena Gomez reveals how Benny Blanco proposed to her. “I thought we had a shoot that day, so I had hair and makeup done, and I was just going about my regular day. I got into the car, and I was thinking to myself, ‘Where are we going?’ Because at that point, I felt like I knew all the studios I usually go to” “It was just me and my security guard, and he was laughing because he was just like, ‘I don’t know. It’s a new space’” “We got out. I walked in, and all of a sudden, I saw no one in the room. I looked at my assistant, and she just shut the door. And I was like, ‘Uhhh…’” “I think you envision all the things you would do and say when someone proposes to you. But it is actually the craziest feeling. It was really special” “He said the sweetest things, but I was so shocked that it just felt unreal for a long time. I’ve always dreamed of that moment, and he couldn’t have made it more perfect. It was one of the best days of my life, for sure”

Leighton Meester explains her reaction to her viral encounter with Ariana Grande at the Critics Choice Awards: “I was with Kate [my publicist]. And she [Ariana] said something to me. And then Kate turns around and we both heard that she goes, ‘hi, I love you. Wah, wah, wah’. I couldn’t hear her. She was like walking away. And I was like, oh, she’s kind of a comedy queen. She’s just being funny. Like, ‘I love you. Wah, wah, wah’. Like, I thought that would be something she would do. And so I was like, oh, my God, that’s cute and funny. And then turned out she didn’t say that. And then I saw her like the next week and I was like, ‘I have to tell you, like, I thought [you said that]’. And she’s like, you thought I said wah, wah, wah. That’s so funny. And I was like, no, it’s an old person not being able to hear. Like, that is so embarrassing”.

Sir Lewis Hamilton reflecting on the break after Singapore, and speaking on his experience with horses throughout his life: "Good afternoon, everyone. I was at the factory, and then headed out here. Had some work in LA, and then I came here. But yesterday, I rode a horse for the first time. So it was an unbelievable experience." "But when I was younger, there used to be a horse that was in a field nearby, just a shy horse. And it was this beautiful horse. It was just on its own every day. So I'd go and stop, and it would come over to me, and I'd spend time [with it]. And then when I'd start walking home, I'd start to notice my allergies started kicking off. And then my breathing, I'd struggle to breathe. And I'd really, really struggle. And I didn't know that I had asthma." "Then I was, I happened to be around another horse another time, and I had an asthma attack. And it was a really scary experience, because I didn't have an inhaler or anything. So anyways, I stayed away from horses since that day. That was when I was probably like 14 or something. And I went through this desensitization program, because my allergies were crazy, particularly for hay fever in the UK. And I didn't think anything of it. I hadn't thought about it. And I did a shoot at the beginning of this year with a horse for the Time 100 magazine. And I took medication, antihistamine. But I was able to be around this horse, no problems. So yesterday, I did a shoot with a horse for Plus 44. And I was like, can I ride it? And I got on. And it was just, wow. It was an amazing experience." "The horse started moving. And it started to gallop. And I didn't know what to do in that moment. So I panicked a little bit. But it was beautiful. So I'm really, really excited about this next phase of my life, where I'm going to be around horses more and really get into riding." - F1 2025 USGP -

Bradley Cooper says he was ready to quit acting before The Hangover changed his career “I was going to quit. I remember I was doing a play, and I was like, ‘It's just not happening.’ I really wanted to be an actor. I loved it so much. I was making a living, which was a miracle. For the first three years, I was like, ‘This is amazing.’ Then I was like I just want to be three days on a movie, then you’re not, and then you're gone” “I wasn't really getting any other roles that were substantial. I met with Todd Phillips six months before for The Hangover, and then it was gone. The truth is, I think they had a cast, but the budget was too high. They said if you make it with a smaller budget, we'll do the movie” “Then I was doing a play in Williamstown called The Understudy by Theresa Rebeck. I remember I got an email from Todd Phillips, and I was like, ‘Whoa, how'd he get my email?’ He was like, ‘Let's do this, bitches’” “Then we went from there and started shooting. We went to Vegas that fall. I never would have gotten Limitless if I wasn't part of The Hangover. That changed everything”

Mike Tyson says he used his money to make life in prison comfortable “When I was in prison, I still had money. So, I would fix people's houses up. The doctors or whoever they were, the guards, I would just send them money, give them money for their kids to go to college and everything. I really had it cool in prison” “My first year I was an asshole, so that's why they had to give me that extra year. I really had life in there. It was really crazy though. It wasn't reality though. It wasn't the real world” “After my first year being an asshole in prison, I was the mac. I had anything I wanted. Me and my roommate, we had a menu. Spaghetti and meatballs, steak and rice. We had a menu for what we was going to eat” “We were just blessed by God that I was able to have the resources to do that”

I could have went anywhere besides Michigan and Ohio State.” “First I wanted to stay home, then my grandma got sick with cancer and I was like, I got to get away from here… My boy who went to high school with me went to Georgia Tech, and he was like, ‘bro, this school hard as hell, we got to go to class every day.’ I said, y’all doing all the work? That one’s off the list.” “Then I went on the visit to West Virginia, we wasn’t doing no work. Work was football.”
