Brooke Shields Reveals How One of Her Auditions Involved Farting

Not all Hollywood auditions are nerve-racking. In fact, some can be a gas.

Take it from Brooke Shields, who said her audition for 1976's Alice, Sweet Alice involved farting while dramatically pretending to be strangled.

"I got the job, by the way," she said with a laugh on the April 3 episode of Watch What Happens Live, during which host Andy Cohen guessed strange facts about Brooke and fellow guest Elizabeth Hurley. "My first movie I ever was in."

Pointing out how the slasher film was later rereleased under the title Holy Terror, Brooke teases, "That wasn't just about the fart!"

Elsewhere in the segment, the 58-year-old confirmed that a hopeful suitor once offered her family 12 camels in exchange for hand in marriage. However, as Brooke jokingly noted, her mom Teri Shields thought the dowry was on the low side.

"'Seriously?'" she recalled of Terri's reaction, quipping that the fan should've thrown "some diamonds" into the deal as well.

Indeed, Brooke has had her fair share of admirers. In fact, the Pretty Baby actress even went on a date with John F. Kennedy Jr.—the son of late President John F. Kennedy and First Lady Jackie Kennedy Onassis—when he was one of the nation's most sought-after bachelors.

"I was invited with the family," the model, who went on to marry Chris Henchy in 2001, recounted during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show last year. "He kept saying I looked like his mother, which was really interesting and a compliment, but it was also like, I don't know how to feel about this."

According to Brooke, the pair did share "the best kiss I've ever had in my life," but the date did not go any further since "I was so afraid of being really hurt."

"I had to get a cab home," she added, "which is a little less than chivalrous."

Grandma knows best.

Kim Kardashian got candid about how her grandma Mary Jo "MJ" Campbell influenced one intimate moment between her and then-boyfriend Pete Davidson, during an October 2022 episode of The Kardashians.

"Pete and I were staying at the Beverly Hills Hotel last weekend, and we were sitting in front of the fireplace, just talking for hours," the SKIMS founder recounted to MJ, mom Kris Jenner and sister Khloe Kardashian. "And I was like, 'My grandma told me that you really live life when you have sex in front of the fireplace. And so, we had sex in front of the fireplace in honor of you."

Grandma's reaction? A nod of approval.

"How creepy to think about your grandma before you have sex?" Kim said, to which MJ replied, "I know, but I was younger once."

The love shared in Mila Kunis and husband Ashton Kutcher's tight-knit family—which includes 8-year-old daughter Wyatt and 6-year-old son Dimitri—knows no boundaries.

So much so, that the Black Swan actress revealed they keep an open-door policy at home.

"That includes the bathroom," she told E! News in September 2022. "It's just one of those where, for better or for worse, as a family and the kids have all kind of embodied bodily function as a very standard norm."

Mila said she arrived at the decision after her family kept knocking on the door and asking to come in, which prompted her to oblige: "I was like, ‘Oh, forget it. Just keep the door open.'"

Pre-kids, she might not have imagined she'd flush that particular boundary away.

She added, "I'd never thought that I would be the person that was able to go to the bathroom with the door open."

Ghouls just want to have fun.

As The View panelists were reviewing footage about a woman who alleged she had "sexual ghosts" in her home, Sara Haines asked the group an important question during an October 2022 episode: "If you have sex with a ghost, can you get pregnant?"

Fortunately for her, co-host Joy Behar had an answer, adding, "I've had sex with a few ghosts and never got pregnant."

"I'm just gonna let that ride," Whoopi Goldberg said in response. "I don't know how many of you just heard what Joy just said, but I'm going to let it ride."

Jenna Bush Hager and Hoda Kotab are a thick as thieves, though there is one thing Hoda didn't know about her Today co-host. When the pair were getting ready for an episode of Today with Hoda and Jenna, Hoda discovered Jenna perpetually goes commando.

"We both had to change before the show and we were like, 'Oh we have to go back into the changing room,'" Hoda said during a November 2022 episode of Today with Hoda and Jenna. "But then I noticed, Jenna never wears underwear."

Jenna's rationale? Well, no underwear might just be more convenient to her.

"I think it makes a more pretty silhouette," she said. "I also think you don't have to pack as much. There are a lot of pros to it!"

Looks like someone hasn't been keeping up.

Britney Spears found herself embracing Keke Palmer's viral saying "he could be walking down the street, I wouldn't know a thing," when she admitted she didn't know who Pete Davidson and Scott Disick were.

Reposting a humorous March video of Pete—who was then dating Kim Kardashian—and Kourtney Kardashian's ex Scott enjoying a "boyz night," to her Instagram, Britney said the two of them had her cracking up.

"Sorry had to repost this," Britney wrote in the since-deleted post. "no idea who these people in the video are but it made me laugh so hard !!!!"

Back before the world knew Chris Evans as Captain America and People's Sexiest Man Alive of 2022, Jana Kramer knew him as the "heartthrob, cutie" she went on a few dates with.

It happened more than a decade ago, the singer revealed on her Whine Down with Jana Kramer podcast in November, and though she can't remember "how many dates it was," she does recall their last encounter.

Jana, then about 26 years old, said Chris invited her over to his house while he had friends in town from Boston.

"The last interaction that I remember is him going into the bathroom after I just went with asparagus pee," Jana remembered, referencing the veggie's tendency to give urine a very distinct scent. "We didn't hook up that night. He stayed up late with his friends and then [in] the morning I did the asparagus walk of shame out of his house."

She added, "I never heard from him again."

Not all of these confessions are amusing.

Eight years after sharing in an ELLE article that she had been battling a rare type of bone cancer—her fake diagnosis even inspiring a storyline on Grey's Anatomy—show writer Elisabeth Finch admitted in December it was all a ruse.

"I told a lie when I was 34 years old and it was the biggest mistake of my life. It just got bigger and bigger and bigger and got buried deeper and deeper inside me," Elisabeth told The Ankler newsletter Dec. 7, adding, "I've never had any form of cancer."

Summed up Finch, who was placed on administrative leave from the ABC medical drama before eventually resigning, said, "What I did was wrong. Not okay. F--ked up. All the words."

Beauty is pain, but Kim Kardashian might be able to stomach it.

Telling The New York Times the lengths she would go to for a more youthful appearance, the reality star cracked that she was willing to try just about anything.

"If you told me that I literally had to eat poop every single day and I would look younger, I might," she said in June. "I just might."

In a July 2022 interview with Allure, Kim said she was "kind of joking" about the comment, though the idea didn't seem too terrible.

"But now that I think about it," Kim added, "I would probably eat s--t if someone told me, ‘If you eat this bowl of poop every single day, you'll look younger.'"

How much could she make room for? "Maybe just a bite," she told the outlet. "I don't think I can do a whole bowl."
