Kristin Chenoweth raises eyebrows declaring her dog 'came out of' her vagina
slammed non-pet parents who claim her dog Thunder 'Pup' Chenoweth isn't her 'baby.' 'When people say, "Oh, it's just your dog," I want to go, "She came out of my vagina. What are you talking about?"' the Wicked star - turning 57 next month - told People on Wednesday. 'I love my dog. Okay?' Kristin - who was adopted when she was five days old - originally adopted the eight-year-old cockapoo mix in January 2017 from Saving Spot Rescue. 'The best day of my life was finding her and rescuing her,' Chenoweth gushed on Instagram October 6. 'The love of my little life!' The self-described 'crazy dog person' waited less than a year to adopt little Thunder following the death of her prior dog, Madeline Kahn Chenoweth. 'When she went to heaven, I was devastated. I literally said, "God, why would you give us these precious angels to take care of and then take them from us after such a brief time?"' Kristin (born Kristi) recalled to the mag. 'And what I keep hearing, the handprint that I keep on my soul, is that they're here to teach you patience and unconditional love.' Chenoweth considers it a 'very big privilege' to live side by side with her precious fur-baby. 'Why get a dog unless you want unconditional love?' the Emmy winner wondered. 'I think I have several feelings, and some of them are a little spiritual in nature when I talk about it, but dog is God spelled backwards.' Kristin memorably dressed her female canine companion in a pink faux fur Christian Cowan ensemble for the red carpet of the Astra TV Awards in LA last year. 'I swear, Thunder can look me in the eyes, she's got human eyes, and she'll be like, "Mommy, it's okay,"' Chenoweth said. 'I don't know what it is. She's seen me in my worst and my best, and I'm so glad she can't talk because then I'd be in real trouble.' The other love of the triple-threat Tony winner's life is her husband of 21 months - guitarist Josh Bryant - whom she met in 2016 when she hired his band Backroad Anthem to perform at her niece's wedding reception. Last week, Deadline reported that Kristin was cast as junior college cheerleading coach Tammy Istiny in Jeff Astrof and Liz Astrof's single-camera mockumentary comedy pilot Stumble for NBC. The other love of Chenoweth's life is her husband of 21 months - guitarist Josh Bryant (L) - whom she met in 2016 when she hired his band Backroad Anthem to perform at her niece's wedding reception Chenoweth will make her triumphant return to Broadway in Michael Arden's musical The Queen of Versailles, which begins previews October 8 before opening November 9 at the St. James Theatre in Midtown Manhattan. Stephen Schwartz composed the music and Lindsey Ferrentino penned the book for the stage adaptation of Lauren Greenfield's 2012 documentary about socialite Jackie Siegel's quest to live in a $100M mega-mansion. Oscar winner F. Murray Abraham will portray Jackie's late billionaire husband, 'Timeshare King' David Siegel. It's been a full decade since the Oklahoma-born blonde starred in a Broadway musical, having portrayed two roles in On the Twentieth Century. Kristin is also every bit the influencer with paid partnerships for brands like Nom Nom, Olipop, Swarvoski, and Laura Geller Beauty.

HowBottle Debuts in the U.S. with Tech-Enabled Essentials - No Green Premium Required
Two moms, one dog lover, and a beach cleanup sparked a brand built for the sustainability generation Alpine, New Jersey--(Newsfile Corp. - May 21, 2025) - HowBottle, a next-generation sustainable lifestyle brand, officially launched in the U.S. this month. HowBottle's debut collection features everyday essentials made entirely from recycled plastic bottles and discarded fishing nets—fully traceable to the source and designed to be good for the planet without adding a "green premium."

Founded by two moms and a dog enthusiast, HowBottle emerged from the beach, not from a boardroom. While collecting plastic waste during a coastal cleanup, the trio came up with the aim for helping the global crisis—one bottle at a time. That question became a bigger mission: to design sustainable, accessible daily essentials without compromising on function, comfort, or cost. "We didn't want to build a brand that just looks sustainable," says co-founder Supa. "We wanted to build one that proves it—without making customers pay more for doing the right thing."

Prue Leith: ‘My dog Tattie once ate my friend's ankle boot'
T he writer, restaurateur and Great British Bake Off presenter has two Cavalier King Charles spaniels, Tattie, the dog she bought her husband as a wedding gift, and Teasel. Tattie is six and Teasel is three. I gave Tattie to my husband, John, as a wedding present. John had said he didn't want another dog because he didn't want the dog to outlive him.

She is a very pretty dog. We call her Princess Tatiana. Then we got Teasel so that she'd have a companion. Teasel is small, dark, hairy and
