Anna Faris teases joining Real Housewives cast nearly seven years after Chris Pratt divorce
Anna Faris has considered joining the Real Housewives franchise. The 48-year-old actress - who was previously married to Chris Pratt - revealed that she would 'take the call' if Bravo boss Andy Cohen approached her to join the highly-popular reality franchise. Anna told Us Weekly recently: 'I was thinking the other day if I would make a good Real Housewife. 'I think I'm way too boring. I don't know if I'm too nice. I really think I would wear everything on my sleeve. I think I would blurt out all the time … I don't know if I would put on the whole pretense of 'there's no cameras.' I don't know. I don't know.' As she has acted professionally for nearly 30 years, she questioned if she could actually be herself in front of the camera for the sake of reality television drama. She explained: 'I feel like, fundamentally, I can be pretty quiet and reserved in my own skin. 'But it would be really fun to play a character on a reality show.' But if push comes to shove, she revealed to the weekly that she 'would totally take the phone call' from Cohen if ever asked to join the show and especially if it was for The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills. However, she questioned her ability to hang on-screen with the likes of Kyle Richards, Dorit Kemsley, Denise Richards, and Erika Girardi as she said: 'But they're so advanced. 'That's like going to graduate school when you're a freshman.' This comes just a month after Anna made some rare comments about the 12-year-old son, Jack, whom she shares with ex Pratt. 'He's handled the situation with the fires well,' the Mom alum told Us Weekly last month regarding how her child handled losing their home during the LA fires earlier this year. 'I really appreciate that,' added the star. While speaking during the push to promote her partnership with the bathroom cleaner Scrubbing Bubbles, the actress went on to reveal that she feels 'so lucky' to have Jack at her side. The 48-year-old actress revealed that she would 'take the call' if Bravo boss Andy Cohen (pictured in New York back in December) approached her to join the highly-popular reality franchise Anna (pictured February 2023) told Us Weekly recently: 'I was thinking the other day if I would make a good Real Housewife. I think I'm way too boring. I don't know if I'm too nice. I really think I would wear everything on my sleeve. I think I would blurt out all the time … I don't know if I would put on the whole pretense of 'there's no cameras.' I don't know. I don't know' 'He's always had such a solid anchor,' she said in another interview with People. 'I don't know where, being a kid in Hollywood, he got that.' She added, 'I don't know how he got so down-to-earth, but I'm really grateful.' Faris and Pratt, 45, separated in 2017 and eventually finalized their divorce the following year after being married since 2009. Despite ending their romantic relationship the former couple have tried to remain close as co-parents for the benefit of their son, who they welcomed in August 2012. They have both moved on and have gotten married again: Faris tied-the-knot with cinematographer Michael Barrett in 2021, while Pratt wed Katherine Schwarzenegger in 2019, and have since welcomed three children of their own. But, just some two months ago, their blended family lives turned tense and scary when they were forced to evacuate their homes in their respective Pacific Palisades neighborhoods in Los Angeles as the deadly fire tore through the area in January. In the end, Pratt's home with Schwarzenegger was spared, however, Faris' house was left in a pile of rubble. In fact, the Scary Movie star's residence turned out to be one of 18,000 homes and structures that burned in the L.A. wildfires, which mainly comprised of the Palisades Fire and the Eaton Fire. 'He's always had such a solid anchor,' The Mom alum told People about son Jack, now 12, 'I don't know where, being a kid in Hollywood, he got that'; Jack is pictured with Pratt in 2023 On top of the loss of the home she shares with her son, Jack's school was also destroyed, Pratt reported an Instagram video at the time. 'It's surreal and has been tough, [but] we feel fortunate because we're safe,' Faris explained to Us, before adding, 'I'm really grateful to be working.' In addition to the cleaning campaign with Scrubbing Bubbles, Faris has also been able to focus on her work shooting the upcoming comedy film Spa Weekend, alongside co-stars Leslie Mann, Isla Fisher, and Michelle Buteau. Her other new roles include a voice spot in the animated comedy film Toy Story 5, starring Tom Hanks and Tim Allen, and the live-action animated film I, Object that features Karl Urban, Jemaine Clement, and Skywalker Hughes. Faris, a Baltimore, Maryland native, had her breakout role when she starred in the horror-comedy parody film Scary Movie (2000). She went on to appear in the next three sequels in the film franchise through 2006. Her other notable roles include The Hot Chick (2002, Lost In Translation (2003), Brokeback Mountain (2005), Just Friends (2005, My Super Ex-Girlfriend (2006), Smiley Face (2007), The House Bunny (2008), What's Your Number? (2011), The Dictator (2012), and Overboard (2018), along with her eight season run in the hit CBS sitcom Mom (2013-2021).

Teddi Mellencamp's Sister Justice Calls Her 'The Strongest Person' In Update After Brain Tumor Surgery
Teddi Mellencamp's sister, Justice Mellencamp, has provided an update on her well-being after she underwent brain tumor surgery. Justice's update came after Teddi's estranged husband, Edwin Arroyave, updated fans following her surgery, revealing that it went well. Teddi shared devastating news about her health last Wednesday, revealing doctors found multiple tumors on her brain, which required surgery. Justice took to her Instagram Story to post a heart-wrenching update about her sister's surgery. She shared a black-and-white photo of her watching Teddi as she slept on her hospital bed. In the post's caption, Justice described her sister as the "strongest person" she knew. The 40-year-old wrote, "Watching a loved one suffer is horrific. I've tried to get back to everyone who has reached out & I know Teddi will share her journey when she is ready." Justice added, "She is by far the strongest person I know. So many emotions as I travel home today but her village is the best one I've ever seen and I'm grateful for them! Your prayers are everything. Thank you." Justice's update came a few days after Teddi's estranged husband Arroyave eased fans' worries by revealing her surgery "went well." Arroyave posted a brief but positive message on Instagram Stories in response to several concerned fans' inquiries about his estranged wife's well-being. He wrote, "So many people asking for updates. All I will say right now is surgery went well." However, Arroyave shared that he had never seen Teddi "in so much pain." He added, "She's finally getting some needed rest," before concluding, "I know she is so grateful for the outpouring of love." Teddi filed for divorce from Arroyave in November 2024, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason. The estranged couple shares three children: daughters Slate, 12, and Dove, 4, and son Cruz, 10. On February 12, Teddi revealed she would undergo an operation to remove tumors found on her brain. In a post on her Instagram page, "The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills" alum, who has always been open about her health struggles, wrote, "For the last several weeks I've been dealing with severe and debilitating headaches." She added, "Yesterday the pain was unbearable and required hospitalization. After a CT scan and MRI, doctors found multiple tumors on my brain, which they believe have been growing for at least 6 months." The 43-year-old shared that two of the surgeries would be surgically removed on that Wednesday while "the remaining smaller tumors will be dealt with via radiation at a later date." The television personality also wrote, "I am blessed to be surrounded by my children, family, friends, doctors, nurses and surgeons who are doing everything possible to get me back into better health." She concluded, "Thank you to everybody who has reached out, and to everyone who has supported me along this journey." Hours after announcing she would undergo surgery, Teddi Mellencamp shared more updates on her Instagram Story. In one post, she shared a video of her friend shaving off her hair and wrote, "I'm gonna have this look on my bucket list." She added, "My best look. I hate to break it to my brother but once I'm allowed to wash my hair and it's not all spiky, I think I've taken you for a run for your money, Hud." Teddi concluded, "I'll see you tomorrow and we'll see who wore it best." The mother of three shared another Instagram Story update revealing that her friend Kyle Richards was with her as she prepared for surgery. Others who were present included Arroyave and country musician Morgan Wade. Teddi Mellencamp has been open about her skin cancer journey, using social media to raise awareness. After her 2022 melanoma diagnosis, she underwent multiple surgeries. Despite early-stage treatment, she was later diagnosed with stage II melanoma and required further procedures. In 2023, new spots prompted biopsies, and she partnered with the Melanoma Research Foundation to advocate for awareness. While setbacks like failed immunotherapy led to more surgeries, Mellencamp remained determined. Her story emphasizes the importance of early detection, health advocacy, and resilience, inspiring others to take proactive action regarding their well-being.
