Jennifer Coolidge joked back in 2022 that she slept with hundreds of people after playing a 'MILF' — aka Stifler's mom — in the iconic American Pie movies.

Nobody ever walked away feeling disrespected or diminished,' he said. 11. Back in 2008, John Mayer candidly admitted, 'I might have hooked up with people, but as soon as I hooked up, they weren't fans anymore…Do you respect me for my honesty? The answer is, yes, I have. But not in a really long time.' 12. Robbie Williams revealed on The Graham Norton Show in 2020 that he'd once received a sexual act from a fan who snuck into his hotel room. 13.

Fans in disbelief over Hollywood actor Vin Diesel's real name
Fans have been stunned to learn that Fast & Furious legend Vin Diesel isn't actually called Vin Diesel, with the story of his stage name dating back to his pre-fame years as a New York bouncer Known for his tough guy persona, the very name Vin Diesel conjures up images of an action hero ready for any scenario, whether that be racing cars at top speeds or fighting in intergalactic battles. Many have therefore been stunned to learn that Vin Diesel isn't actually called Vin Diesel at all, having deliberately picked a stage name that would better reflect his super buff public image. Away from the bright lights of the movie studio, however, the 57-year-old Fast & Furious legend goes by a very different moniker. In a 2005 appearance of The Ellen Show, a clip of which has since gone viral, host Ellen DeGeneres pressed Vin on the moniker 'Vin Diesel', which she asserted couldn't "possibly" be the name on his birth certificate. To the amazement of viewers, California-born Vin confessed: "You know what, it's not." He then went on to reveal: "My real name is Mark Vincent." Going on to detail the origins of his famous stage name, Vin explained that it dates back to his time working as a New York City nightclub bouncer. He shared: "I was a bouncer for nine years, and the name stuck. We all had fictitious names just in case we got in trouble or anything." While Vin is of course a shortened version of Vincent, 'Diesel' is a reference to the star's love of working out. Vin continued: "Vin from Vincent. [...]When you're probably built up a little, you say, 'that guy is diesel'." Fans have naturally been baffled by this revelation, with one aghast person tweeting: "Vin Diesel has a real name?" In a humorous nod to Vin's most famous character, another commented: "I think we all know that his REAL name is Dominic Torreto." Of course, Vin is far from the only Hollywood star who has opted to go for a completely different name. Whoopi Goldberg of Sister Act fame was, in fact, born Caryn Elaine Johnson, but wanted something that would stand out a little bit more in the world of showbiz. As Whoopi explained in her 2024 memoir, Bits and Pieces: My Mother, My Brother, and Me, the name she is best known for was partially inspired by her tendency for flatulence. She admitted: "Some people at the Rep called me Whoopi because I would sometimes let loose with a fart." Meanwhile, acclaimed Golden Globe winner Jamie Foxx is actually called Eric Marlon Bishop. During a 2024 appearance on Angie Martinez's radio show, the Django Unchained actor divulged how his pick dates back to his early days as a stand-up starting out in LA. He recalled: "I went on as Eric Bishop [and] killed. Standing ovation. I come back the next weekend. You sign your name. I don't get on. Next week, I don't get on again. Come to find out, the comics are running the list. So I could never get on." After trying out another venue, Jamie found he had more success using "unisex names" due to male comics vastly outweighing the number of female comics. The name Jamie Foxx git him booked, and he's stuck with it ever since. Legally Blonde icon Reese Witherspoon is another A-lister who has opted for a different name. Born Laura Jeanne Reese Witherspoon, Reese ultimately decided on a name that felt more 'Hollywood', as previously reported by Women's Health.

Joe Jonas Just Earnestly Replied To A Comment That Quoted One Of Taylor Swift's Diss Tracks About Him, And People Can't Decide If He Is In On The Joke Or Not
If you cast your minds way back to the year 2008, you may remember that Taylor Swift and Joe Jonas's three-month relationship came to a pretty brutal end when he dumped her in a 25-second phone call, which she went on to expose on The Ellen Show. Taylor, who was 18 years old at the time, was promoting her second album, Fearless, when she dropped the bombshell, telling host Ellen DeGeneres: 'When I find that person that is right for me, he'll be wonderful. And when I look at that person, I'm not even gonna be able to remember the boy who broke up with me over the phone in 25 seconds when I was 18.' She also revealed that the Fearless track 'Forever & Always' was a last-minute addition to the album that she had written towards the end of their failed relationship. The heartbreak anthem includes the lyrics: 'Was I out of line? / Did I say something way too honest, made you run and hide / Like a scared little boy?' A year later, Joe seemingly responded to Taylor's public comments about their breakup when he released the song 'Much Better' with his and his brothers' band, the Jonas Brothers. Aged 19, he appeared to throw shade at Taylor with the lyrics: 'I get a rep for breakin' hearts / Now I'm done with superstars / And all the tears on her guitar / I'm not bitter.' While he didn't explicitly say that the song was about Taylor, it wasn't difficult for listeners to figure it out with the direct reference to her song 'Teardrops On My Guitar,' and if there was any doubt, Joe all-but-confirmed that he was taking aim at his ex when he changed the lyrics to 'done with country stars' during a live performance — an obvious jibe about Taylor's country music roots. Taylor and Joe went on to take subtle swipes at each other over the next couple of years. During Taylor's 2009 Saturday Night Live monologue, she famously sang: 'This is my musical monologue! / You might think I'd bring up Joe / That guy who broke up with me on the phone / But I'm not gonna mention him in my monologue.' She then quipped: 'Hey Joe, I'm doing real well, tonight I'm hosting SNL but I'm not gonna brag about that in my monologue.' Meanwhile, in 2013, Joe famously said in an interview with SiriusXM: 'The girl likes to date' when asked about Taylor's growing reputation as a serial dater. But by 2015, Joe insisted that he and Taylor were 'cool,' and the two were spotted hanging out together at the Billboard Music Awards. In 2019, Taylor admitted that she regretted putting Joe 'on blast' in that infamous Ellen interview, adding: 'We laugh about it now, but that was some mouthy — yeah, just some teenage stuff there.' Still, their newfound friendship didn't stop Taylor from releasing another diss track about Joe, 'Mr Perfectly Fine,' in April 2021 as part of her Fearless re-recording. She had originally written it for her 2008 album, but it didn't make the final cut, meaning that fans heard it for the first time when she released Fearless (Taylor's Version). In the song, Taylor suggests that Joe effectively lovebombed her before turning cold and ending their relationship. She implies that what she struggled with the most amid their split was the "casually cruel" way that Joe acted like he hadn't done anything wrong, accusing him of issuing an "insincere apology" and scrambling to make sure that "he doesn't look like the bad guy." Taylor also calls out the way that Joe was so effortlessly able to move on from their romance, and how his reputation continued to thrive. She sings: 'So dignified in your well-pressed suit / So strategized, all the eyes on you / Sashay away to your seat / It's the best seat, in the best room / Oh, he's so smug, Mr. 'Always wins' / So far above me in every sense / So far above feeling anything.' Thankfully, releasing this song didn't appear to impact Joe and Taylor's relationship in 2021, with Joe's then-wife, Sophie Turner, even poking fun at the fact that her husband was the inspiration behind the song when she shared a screenshot of it to her Instagram story and quipped: "It's not NOT a bop." Taylor reposted this to her own story. And just a month before their shock split in 2023, Sophie proudly posted a photo of herself wearing multiple friendship bracelets that read 'Mr. Perfectly Fine' in an apparent reference to Joe. Meanwhile, Joe also seemed to be unphased, and a year after 'Mr Perfectly Fine's' release he changed the lyrics of 'Much Better' to more accurately reflect his and Taylor's current situation, singing: 'I got a rep for breaking hearts / Now I'm cool with superstars / And all the tears on her guitar.' However, it seems likely that their relationship may have soured in recent years, with Taylor very publicly siding with Sophie amid her and Joe's incredibly messy and headline-dominating split in 2023. The star was spotted on multiple nights out with Sophie, and she even let the British actor stay in her New York City home. During this time, 'Mr Perfectly Fine' was reexamined in a new light, with screenshots of the lyrics regularly going viral on social media as Sophie's fans related them to their breakup. One comment read at the time: "I swear Taylor's roast of this assclown is so spot on. What a pathetic loser." So, it's perhaps fair to say that Joe may have a bit of a difficult relationship with this song, which is why fans were caught off-guard when he earnestly replied to a TikTok comment quoting lyrics from it on Wednesday. Joe posted a video of himself walking around the streets of London to an audio sound of somebody talking about his 'smart' 'TikTok presence" that keeps him "top of mind." TikTok @joejonas / Via Referencing both Joe's suit and Taylor's lyrics, one fan commented on the post: 'so dignified in his well pressed suit🤭,' to which Joe replied: 'Thanks for noticing' — and people can't decide whether Joe got the reference or not. Reacting to the comment on X, some speculated that he was in on the joke — especially when you factor in the sound he had used in the TikTok — and they praised him for the 'iconic' response. But others argued that Joe wouldn't be that familiar with his ex's lyrics, with one writing: 'He probably doesnt even know that's from Mr. perfectly fine." Somebody else referenced the earnestness in his reply as they tweeted: 'HELP THE WAY HE THINKS IT'S A GOOD THING?!" Do you think that Joe got the reference? Let me know in the comments below!

RENFRO VALLEY, Ky. (FOX 56) — Mason Ramsey yodelled his way from Walmart into the spotlight. It all started with 'Lovesick Blues,' when he was only 11 years old. Read more of the latest Kentucky news 'When the video was going viral, I never knew it was going viral because I wasn't raised around the internet,' Ramsey said. 'We didn't find out until a week and a half after it started going viral.' That's when he landed on Ellen DeGeneres' radar. 'Well, The Ellen Show actually called my cousin, and that's how I got into the industry—through Ellen,' he explained. Ramsey's career skyrocketed, entering stardom at a young age, singing beside Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus at the 62nd Grammy Awards in 2020. 'I've put out a lot of music since then, and last year I had a song go pretty viral called 'Blue Over You,' which is funny because a lot of people who were listening to 'Blue Over You' knew me as Mason Ramsey. They didn't know I was the same person who actually sang in that Walmart when I was 11. So, people were a little blown away or surprised,' Ramsey joked. And for a good reason.

'I was just trying to get an idea of what I wanted to do and what type of music I wanted to do that I can relate to. Because I hadn't really done anything like that. And I ended up writing 'Blue Over You.' We put it out, and the people loved it and so we just started going in that direction.' Ramsey is hitting the road and is heading to the historic Renfro Valley on April 6 on the Monster Energy Outbreak Tour. He told FOX 56 he's no stranger to the Bluegrass region and can't wait to show Kentuckians what he's been working on. 'Our shows are, like, so energetic. There's a lot of energy around the room,' Ramsey said. 'So it tends to get really loud. So I just want to let or try and get this out for everyone to bring their earplugs because I don't want anyone losing their hearing. But bring anyone you think wants to have a good time because you are 100% guaranteed to have a good time at a Mason Ramsey concert.'
