Listicle: 10 weird products celebs tried to make us buy
Sydney Sweeney's bathwater soap. Erykah Badu and Gwyneth Paltrow sold incense and candles scented like their lady parts. 'Hold my loofah,' said Sweeney. Her line of $8 soaps, she claims, is made with water in which she's actually bathed. The bars, created with soapmaker Dr. Squatch, have sand, sea salt and shea butter as other ingredients. They smell like pine, Douglas fir and moss. Sweeney hopes it inspires guys to 'start cleaning themselves'.

Glen Powell's ex addresses Sydney Sweeney cheating rumours, recalls what he said to her: ‘I was just fed to the dogs'
Glen Powell's ex-girlfriend, Gigi Paris, recently broke her silence on their high-profile split. The duo first made headlines when they started dating around early 2020 after being spotted together on a romantic trip. They went Instagram official in 2021 and stayed together for three years. However, in 2023, while Glen was filming his romantic comedy Anyone But You in Australia with Sydney Sweeney, rumours started surfacing that the co-stars' chemistry had spilled off-screen. At the time, Gigi and Powell's relationship had already landed in trouble, partly because of the distance, but the rumours made things more difficult. By April 2023, Gigi and Glen had officially broken up. Now, Gigi is giving a rare insight into what went down. On the Too Much podcast, hosted by Emma Klipstein, Paris revealed exactly how hurtful and messy the entire situation was for her. Referring to the wild speculations, she said, 'I could either pretend like I was going along with everything and have everyone wonder, like, 'Are they hooking up? Are they not hooking up? Is she okay with this? What the f—?' Or stand up for myself and say, 'No, I'm actually not okay with this, and I'm walking away.' So that's what I decided to do… I was shattered.' (Via People) Also read: Sydney Sweeney calls herself 'really vicious', says it's 'kind of psychotic' how she jumps in character: 'I feel bad for my co-stars' Klipstein pressed Paris on whether she ever received clarity from Powell about their relationship, and if there was any moment that stuck with her. The model described an incident when she was supposed to fly to Australia to visit him. He told her that he and the producers decided it would be best if she didn't visit. That phone call completely broke her. 'And that's when I hung up. And I was like, this motherf—– is done to me,' she added. 'I think that's where I just also fell out of love… I was like, where the f— are your balls to stand up for yourself?' Still, she flew to Australia to confront him face to face, but claimed she wasn't allowed anywhere near the movie set or production. She was stuck there for two weeks for work, but was kept away from Glen's filming activities. She called the entire experience 'very bizarre.' Paris also said she was frustrated that Glen never publicly defended her while people speculated that he and Sydney were secretly together. All he had to do was publicly deny the rumours and say, 'I would never cheat on my girlfriend.' But he never said anything like that, which made her feel abandoned. Later, it was suggested that the rumours around Glen and Sydney's 'flirty behaviour' during the film's promotions were part of a publicity stunt to create buzz and help sell the movie. 'And I honestly hoped that they'd end up together, because I was like, at least it would make it worth it for me, you know? I hope they are in love or whatnot,' she said.

She claimed all she had heard were different versions of the story. But what she wanted was respect, which she never received. 'Like, don't make an a** out of me. Like, just don't make a fool out of someone you've been with for over three years, talking about forever with. Just have some decency, you know? And at the end of the day, it was like, well, work comes first. And if that's the case, power to you, that's your priority. I gotta walk away. What su*** was how it was handled. I felt like I was just fed to the dogs.' Sydney Sweeney, meanwhile, was engaged to Jonathan Davino during the time of promotions. The duo ended their relationship earlier this year. Sydney once remarked that fans love seeing onscreen couples flirt offscreen, and both she and Glen leaned into those rumours because it helped sell the movie. Meanwhile, Glen, for his part, later admitted that the promotions were hard for him because he was going through a real breakup while pretending to have fun with Sydney for the movie's press tour.
