Kate Winslet is renowned for her fearless film roles — but she isn’t entirely scare-free.

While appearing on the Friday, January 17, episode of The Late Show, Winslet, 49, told host Stephen Colbert about what she refers to as the world’s “scariest animal.”

“I’m honestly not brilliant with cows,” she told Colbert, 60, which drew laughter from both the host and his studio audience. “No, no, no listen, here’s the thing. Someone said to me, ‘Oh you’ve got to learn how to read a field of cows, you have, you’ve got to be careful because if they turn, they’ve gone.’”

The Lee star continued recalling the advice she’d received, detailing that if you see, “their tails are swishin’ and they’re flickin’ like that and there’s flies,” it means they’re unhappy. “They might charge you,” she recalled hearing.

Winslet added that she’d never realized how dangerous cows could prove to be, telling Colbert that she goes “hiking all the time,” where she will often navigate paths “through fields of cows.”

“I have decided that they are going to stampede me to the ground,” Winslet hilariously concluded with a straight face. The remark led Colbert to wonder, “Has this ever happened?” to which Winslet revealed that cows had indeed stalked her and her mother in the past.

“They were slowly Bo-Peeping it and then they did speed up, really, truly,” Winslet said. “Borderline [a] couple of gallopers, I’d say. However, there are quite a lot of stories in England about people having very nasty run-ins with cows. Very real ones. So I am extremely wary of a field of cows.”

She added that she wanted to “get better at coping” with her fear, telling Colbert that, “they’re not really scary, are they? No, they’re not,” before reiterating that being wary of cows was a “legit fear.”

Colbert’s lighthearted interview question was part of what the TV host calls “The Colbert Questionert,” which comprises 15 interview questions to help him get to know his guests. Previous celebrities to have taken part in the often-hysterical interview series include George Clooney, Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks.

Kate Winslet Says ‘Titanic’ Kiss With Leonardo DiCaprio Was ‘Such a Mess’

As for Winslet, her cow concerns follow the actress’ candid recollection of one of her most famed onscreen moments. During the September 26 episode of the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast, hosted by Josh Horowitz, Winslet revealed that she and Titanic costar Leonardo DiCaprio filmed its notorious door scene in “waist-height” water.

“That was quite an awkward tank, that one,” Winslet told Horowitz. “To burst a bubble, it was waist-height, that tank. So first of all, I was regularly like, ‘Ugh, can I just go for a pee,’ and then I’d get up, get off the door, walk to the edge of the tank that was sort of 20 feet away, and I’d literally have to fling my leg over and climb out the tank and go for a pee and then come back and crawl on the door again.”

She added that DiCaprio, 49, kneeled the entire time he filmed his (spoiler alert) death scene, which has been heavily debated for years.

Josh Gad claimed Jake Gyllenhaal was far from enthusiastic about him pursuing a role in The Book of Mormon.

According to his memoir, “In Gad We Trust: A Tell-Some,” released on Tuesday, January 14, Gad, 43, claimed his Love & Other Drugs costar warned him against pursuing a part in the musical-comedy production.

Gad wrote, “While bouncing back and forth to do episodes of The Daily Show, I was also filming a movie called Love & Other Drugs … One day as Jake and I were driving home from set in Pittsburgh, I asked him if I could play a demo of a new musical that I had recently done a workshop for in New York, hoping to get his advice as to whether or not I should pursue it further. He said, ‘Yeah, pop it on,’ and I played the opening number.”

Love & Other Drugs, starring Gyllenhaal, 44, and Anne Hathaway in lead roles, kicked off principal photography in Pittsburgh in September 2009. Gad played a supporting role in the story, which followed pharmaceutical salesman Jamie embarking on a relationship with Maggie, a woman suffering from early onset Parkinson’s disease.

Gad said in his book that Gyllenhaal, “laughed his ass off,” while listening to “Hello!,” the critically acclaimed stage production’s opening number, before Gyllenhaal’s thoughts evolved.

“I skipped to another track on the album and his face slowly went from joyful enthusiasm to abject fear and terror,” Gad wrote. “He stopped the car and said, ‘Dude, you cannot do whatever this is. This will be way too controversial. Who the hell wrote this anyway?’ I paused the music and looked over at him. ‘The South Park guys.’”

Despite Gyllenhaal’s alleged concerns, Gad spent 15 months portraying Elder Cunningham in The Book of Mormon on Broadway, created by South Park’s Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Gad’s performance earned him a Tony Award nomination for Best Actor in a Musical in 2011.

Gad told Us Weekly upon the release of his memoir that navigating the obstacles of his career path ultimately “became the theme of the book.”

“In the face of adversity, how do you overcome obstacles in order to achieve bigger dreams than you could have set out for yourself? That has been the story of my life,” Gad told Us.

The actor also wrote about having a father who was absent for more of his life, detailing how that impacted his own fatherhood experience. (Gad shares two daughters, Ava, 13, and Isabella, 10, with wife Ida Darvish.)

“I enjoyed the hell out of writing [the book], and I hope everyone who reads it takes away something that’s useful and inspires them,” he told Us. “At the very least, I hope they have a good laugh.”

In the latest episode of Sister Wives, Meri Brown shed light on the breakdown of her family’s funds — and she claimed it wasn’t always fair.

“His whole big thing then was I would get two acres. Two acres,” Meri, 53, told her pal Jen during the Sunday, January 19, episode of the TLC series, alleging that ex-husband Kody Brown never intended to give her an equal share of their family’s Coyote Pass property. “He’s like, ‘Well, you don’t need as much because you don’t have as many kids.’”

Jen pointed out that Meri “paid equally” into the plot of land, which is in Flagstaff, Arizona, despite the fact that she only shares one child, Leon, with Kody, 55.

“I don’t know if they don’t remember, like, when our funds were all together and those family funds that I helped with went to the kids’ college, went to property,” Meri explained. “It went to everything. We had a family fund.”

‘Sister Wives' Star Janelle Claims Kody Listens to Wives for 'Leverage'

Jen quickly reminded Meri that not only did she put money into the family bank when she was married to Kody, but that money “paid out for the majority of the kids’ colleges, but not Leon’s.”

Jen alleged that the family fund “went to the majority of the kids’ cars, but not Leon’s,” which Meri confirmed. “I paid for Leon’s college,” Meri said, adding that she paid for her child’s “car payments” as well — and didn’t use the family slush.

Meri confessed: “I really don’t know how much of the family fund actually paid for other kids’ school or cars, but I know that my kiddo’s school was not taken care of from the family fund.”

Although she was married to Kody the longest, Meri claimed she never got an even share of the money her sister wives all pulled together for their plural family.

“Kody has actually said this: ‘Because I only have one child, I am not entitled to an equal portion of the property,’” Meri alleged, once again referring to the sale of their communal land.

Meri and Kody were legally married from 1990 to 2014. They got divorced so Kody could wed fourth wife Robyn Brown and legally adopt her three children from a prior relationship. Meri and Kody remained in a spiritual union until she confirmed their separation in January 2023.

Sister Wives' Kody Admits He Considered ‘Screwing’ Janelle Over With Land

Along with Leon, Kody welcomed six children with both Janelle Brown and Christine Brown before their respective breakups. (Janelle announced her split in December 2022, while Christine left the plural family in 2021.)

Kody is still married to Robyn, 46, with whom he shares three adoptive children and two biological kids.

“We had 18 kids to take care of. You know, that’s just water under the bridge,” Kody told the cameras during Sunday’s episode while discussing the division of assets. “I don’t even want to discuss it. Meri can do all the complaining about whatever happened that she wants.”

Sister Wives' Kody Brown and Meri Brown's Relationship Highs and Lows

While Kody tried to ignore Meri’s claims, she remained adamant that she deserves to get some money from their Coyote Pass property — as does Janelle. (Christine gave her portion of the land to Robyn and Kody after her divorce and kept the money from selling her Arizona home.)

“I put a lot into this marriage emotionally, financially [and] personally. I didn’t get anything out of it as far as, like, alimony or whatever. And I’m not looking for that,” Meri concluded. “So I think it’s fair [I get] the property investment. I think it’s fair that I walk away with that at least.”

Elsewhere in the episode, Kody met with a realtor to list Coyote Pass but didn’t keep Janelle or Meri in the loop. The women, meanwhile, both retained attorneys to try and protect their rights to the land.

Sister Wives airs on TLC Sundays at 10 p.m. ET.

Barry Keoghan has revealed how fatherhood has forever changed him.

During a campaign video for proposed children’s care reforms within the U.K., featuring U.K. Foreign Secretary David Lammy, posted via Facebook on Friday, January 17, Keoghan, 32, offered rare comments about being a dad to son Brando, 2, whom he shares with ex-girlfriend Alyson Sandro.

The Saltburn star told Lammy, 52, that becoming a father has led to deep reflection over his own parents. “As I’ve got older and I had my own son, I realized that it was such hard work for her [Keoghan’s mother] and my father. And luckily there was a good care system there, which is massively important,” Keoghan said. (Keoghan’s mother died of a heroin overdose when the actor was 12, per The Irish Post.)

“You can use your platform and profile to shine light on things, and anything to do with kids and care, I’m always wanting to help and shine a light on it, and get attention to it,” Keoghan added.

Barry Keoghan's Most Honest Quotes About Being a Father to Son Brando

Keoghan became a father while filming 2023’s Saltburn, telling GQ in a January 2024 interview that he received a “day off” for the youngster’s birth. “Good on them! Day off, and straight on to night shoots and night feedings — boom!” Keoghan told the outlet at the time. “You see me tired. Yeah. Brando. Good ol’ Brando.”

Keoghan’s latest comments come after the star defended himself in the face of online accusations of being a “deadbeat dad.” During an interview for “The Louis Theroux Podcast” in September 2024, Keoghan acknowledged insensitive comments online trolls had recently posted.

“There’s a lot online. If I didn’t have tough skin or the strength, I wouldn’t be sitting here,” Keoghan told host Louis Theroux. “Of course, [his childhood is] going to affect me being a father when I had no blueprint to take from. People just read that [as] laziness and go, ‘Oh, that’s no excuse to be an absent father.’ I’m not an absent father.”

The accusations are believed to have been sparked by an interview Keoghan gave to Entertainment Weekly earlier that month, in which he talked about his relationship with Brando. “I’ll just say this — I didn’t have a father figure growing up, so even my relationship with my son isn’t quite of the normal father-son relationship because I don’t have that figure to draw experience from and to base it on,” Keoghan told the outlet at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival on September 12.

Barry Keoghan Reacts to 'Deadbeat Dad' Accusations: 'It Sickens Me'

During Keoghan’s conversation with Theroux, 54, he said, “People love to use my son as ammunition or whatever. And it kind of leads me to stop, the more attention I’ve [gotten] lately and the more in the public I’ve become, the less I’ve posted about my child, because I don’t think it’s fair to put my child online. And because I reigned that in, people draw a narrative and go, ‘Absent father, s—, deadbeat dad,’ and more disgusting things I wouldn’t even repeat. Just the audacity of some people, man. It sickens me, makes me furious.”

Keoghan and Sandro, a dental nurse and orthodontic therapist, met in early 2021 before calling off their relationship in summer 2023.

Spencer Pratt has taken issue with “Call Her Daddy” podcaster, Alex Cooper, claiming she declined to promote wife Heidi Montag’s song.

During a TikTok Live interview with Bethenny Frankel on Saturday, January 18, Pratt, 41, said he asked Cooper, 30, to “post” a song from Superficial, the 2010 album released by Montag, 38. The alleged request comes after Montag’s album recently topped the music charts following the loss of the couple’s home to the L.A. wildfires.

“I asked [Alex] to post the song, and I texted her husband [Matt Kaplan] and I was like, ‘Hey, it would really help,’” Pratt told Frankel, 54. “I kept tagging her, messaging, and then she wrote to me, ‘We have a lot of people displaced at our house,’ and I’m like, ‘Post the song, girl.’”

Us Weekly has reached out to a representative for Cooper for comment.

Heidi Montag Tops Music Charts After Losing Home in L.A. Fire: ‘Oh My Gosh’

Pratt continued, “Respectfully, if I keep my platform, if I keep being an A-list, rich celebrity, she’s so f—ed, because I have beef with her now. Like she’s going to be targeted.”

Pratt’s stance drew a “wow” from Frankel, who then asked Pratt how “big” his “hit list” currently is, referring to the people in Pratt’s life who have upset him. Pratt responded, “Right now, it’s only Alex Cooper.”

Pratt, who has been married to Montag for more than 16 years after the Hills alums tied the knot in Cabo San Lucas in November 2008 before staging a second wedding in Pasadena five months later, added that Cooper’s alleged dismissal has pushed Pratt to align with Cooper’s former “Call Her Daddy” cohost Sofia Franklyn, who now hosts the “Sofia With an F” podcast.

Pratt explained to Frankel during their chat, “Now I ride with “Sofia With an F,” that’s my team now. “Sofia With an F” posted the song, did a dance.”

Fans have rallied behind Pratt and Montag after they confirmed via social media that their Pacific Palisades home burnt down on January 7. Since the devastating loss, the couple, who share two sons, Gunner, 7, and Ryker, 1, together, have posted updates and pleaded with fans to support them financially.

Superficial shot to the top music chart spot on Saturday 11, confirmed by Montag at the time. “Thank you so much to everyone. No 1 on iTunes chart, oh my gosh,” she shared via her Instagram Stories that day. “Thank you for the overwhelming love and support of my music and really rallying behind us in this devastating time and making it such a blessing.”

Celebrities including Paris Hilton and Jhené Aiko, who lost their homes in the L.A. wildfires, too, supported Montag via Pratt’s own celebratory Instagram post. “Congrats @heidimontag ,” Hilton, 43, commented, with Aiko, 36, adding, “Love this!!!!!!! @heidimontag !!!”

Model Emily Ratajkowski also cheered on Montag by sharing a TikTok video of herself listening to the song, “I’ll Do It,” off the album. “Didn’t expect this Heidi Montag song to be the soundtrack to the 2025 apocalypse but you know what f*** yeah,” Ratajkowski, 33, wrote over the clip.

Paris Hilton is remembering what’s important in life after losing her Malibu home in the Los Angeles wildfires.

Hilton, 43, took to Instagram on Sunday, January 19, to share a video of her son Phoenix, 2, snuggled up in a blanket alongside the family’s two dogs.

The clip, which zoomed in on the youngster’s face and captured her pups Diamond and Baby lazing next to him, came with the text, “Take a moment to relax with sleepy Pheeny, Diamond, and Baby,” written over it.

The mother-of-two, who also shares daughter London, 1, with husband, Carter Reum, captioned the footage with a heartfelt message. “Some sleepy Pheeny and puppy footage for your feed Through everything that’s going on around us, sometimes we need an adorable reminder to take a mindful moment for ourselves #SlivingMom,” Hilton wrote. (The term “Sliving” combines “slaying” and “living,” a word coined by Hilton.)

Paris Hilton Documents Emotional Visit to Burned Down L.A. Home

The post comes after Hilton confirmed via the social media platform on January 9 that she had watched her “home in Malibu burn to the ground on live TV.” Detailing the experience at the time, she wrote, “This home was where we built so many precious memories. It’s where Phoenix took his first steps and where we dreamed of building a lifetime of memories with London..”

A heartbroken Hilton mustered a remarkable perspective even then, continuing with, “While the loss is overwhelming, I’m holding onto gratitude that my family and pets are safe. My heart and prayers are going out to every family affected by these fires. To all the people who have lost their homes, their memories, and their beloved pets. My heartaches for those still in harm’s way or mourning greater losses. The devastation is unimaginable.”

Hilton has maintained a positive outlook on the L.A. wildfires devastation, which affected a string of celebrities after breaking out due to a wind storm on January 7, lending a hand to displaced animals despite her personal heartbreak.

She shared via Instagram on Monday, January 13, that she intended to foster a dog who was surrendered by his family who had lost their home in the fire. “And we’re gonna go and see if there’s any other dogs where they are still looking for their owners,” Hilton posted at the time, adding a photo of herself doting on a cat in the hope of finding its owner amid the Altadena fires.

Hilton and a host of celebrities have shared vital disaster resource information in the aftermath of the natural disaster, with the socialite adding that her own charity organisation was offering assistance. The January 13 post continued, “My nonprofit @1111Media Impact has contributed to support the shelter’s efforts, and we’re still raising funds to help displaced families and pets Every donation makes a difference in providing emergency relief, housing, and supplies. If you’re able to donate or volunteer, the Pasadena Humane Society is an incredible charity to support!”

Kim Kardashian has been candid through the years about dipping her toe back into the dating pool after divorce.

Kardashian initially tied the knot with producer Damon Thomas, with whom she was married for three years until the pair called it quits in 2003. Nearly one decade later, Kardashian got engaged to Kris Humphries in 2011 and exchanged vows later that year. Kardashian and Humphries split after 72 days of marriage, finalizing their divorce in April 2013.

Kardashian moved on with Kanye West, with whom she welcomed daughter North in 2013. The pair said “I do” in 2014 and added son Saint, daughter Chicago and son Psalm to their family in 2015, 2018 and 2019, respectively. After nearly seven years of marriage, Kardashian filed for divorce from West in 2021.

The reality star was later linked to Saturday Night Live’s Pete Davidson, with whom she dated for less than one year, before sparking romance rumors with Odell Beckham Jr. In May 2024, a source exclusively told Us Weekly that Kardashian and the NFL player were “taking a pause on seeing each other.” Months later, a separate insider exclusively told Us that Kardashian “has started dating someone new” and is “keeping it very under wraps.”

While reflecting on her relationship status during a January 2025 trailer for The Kardashians, she quipped, “I had the intention of staying single. I was fully lying to you guys. Me, not dating and not wanting love and attention? I don’t think you know me.”

Being a Hopeless Romantic

Kardashian opened up about her mindset when it comes to dating on a May 2023 episode of the “On Purpose With Jay Shetty” podcast. “I think I’ll always be a hopeless romantic and always want to be in love and definitely love sharing my life with someone and love creating a life with someone,” Kardashian said.

Kardashian noted that she didn’t plan to rush into another relationship because of how it will affect her children.

“I definitely will take my time, and I think there’s so many factors especially when you have kids and being mindful of people that enter in your life,” she said. “If I can look at everything that I did wrong and try to not make the same mistakes and really take my time, I think it just has to be different for me. It’s obviously such a hard place to be in because how do you go about it? There’s so many factors, but I’ll always believe in love and I’ll always want that and I think that’s such a magical part of life. But I think I’m so comfortable taking my time to not rush it.”

She added: “There’s so much going on that I’m not lonely, and I think that that is really important. I believe, like, I always believe. And I think that whatever’s meant to be will be.”

Sneaking Around

Kardashian told Scott Disick during a June 2023 episode of The Kardashians that she wanted to “sneak around a little bit.”

“There’s nothing wrong with wanting to sneak,” she said. “What is so funny is my friends wanted me to meet someone so I went to New York … [And this guy] so meets the standards.”

Manifesting Her Dream Partner

Kardashian explained what she’s looking for in a potential partner during a June 2023 episode of The Kardashians.

“[I need him to] protect me [and] fight for me. Good hygiene, and that is a given, so I should maybe take that off. [He should be] calm. No mom or dad issues. [I want someone who is] patient, supportive, genuinely happy for me [and] successful,” she shared. “[He should be] spontaneous, fun [and] my friends and family love him. [I want] someone that can be a role model for my kids — especially someone my boys can look up to.”

Kardashian noted that it’s important for her future partner to not have “heavy baggage,” adding, “I have enough. [I hope he is] taller than me and someone that loves to work out. [He should be a] motivated and independent person. Someone who is not clingy and someone with good taste.”

‘More Into Privacy These Days’

While appearing on a June 2023 episode of Hailey Bieber’s “Who’s In My Bathroom” YouTube series, the Kardashians star was asked if she has a current celebrity crush in a game of “Truth or Shot.”

“I almost want to take a drink because I kinda want it to come true,” Kardashian quipped, before noting that the secret man does not know how she feels. “I’m more into privacy these days.”

Not ‘Delusional’ to Think Someone Will ‘Check Every Single Box’

While reflecting on her ideal partner, Kardashian shared during a February 2024 episode of SiriusXM’s “This Life of Mine With James Corden” podcast that she’s “not so delusional to know that someone will check every single box.”

“[I’m looking for someone who is] accountable for actions,” she said. “Takes accountability, [has] good teeth, can hold their own and I don’t have to babysit [them] all the time. Just a good, genuine person that’s driven and has their own motivations in life.”

When asked whether her attempt to find her partner could result in a wedding, she replied, “I don’t know. I really don’t.”

“There’ll be moods where I’m just like, ‘You know what? I understand my life is really big and I understand it takes a really, really, really special, unique person to want to deal with that,’” she said. “I think my life is really fun and whoever comes into my life will have a really good time, but it’s a lot. I’m not lonely, so I’m good. I have my kids, I have work, I have my family, but it would be nice to share your life with someone, but when you do, it’s such a big … I don’t take that lightly.”

Chrissy Teigen has come up with a plan to change how we all interact with social media — herself included.

In a series of videos shared on Saturday, January 18, Teigen, 39, discussed the drama surrounding the recent TikTok ban. 

“Let’s talk TikTok. Everyone is bummed. ‘OMG, it’s going to be shut down,’” the social media star said via Instagram. “It’s on a hiatus for now. It’s going to come back.”

In a following video, the model suggested that the government shut off social media from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. each day. “I come from the days where we had nothing and then we saw something,” she explained, referring to all social media apps in general.

“Guys, life was great,” she continued. “Life was awesome before this. I know it’s hard to see it now, but it’s doable. It’s very doable. This doesn’t have to be our lives.”

“And I say this for myself as well because — obviously — I’m on here [social media] right now doing this,” she continued. “But it doesn’t have to define us or be our whole lives.”

Teigen’s videos were posted hours after TikTok “went dark” ahead of the nationwide ban set to begin Sunday, January 19. Users in the United States who attempted to open the app were met with a message that read, “Sorry, TikTok isn’t available right now. A law banning TikTok has been enacted in the U.S. Unfortunately, that means you can’t use TikTok for now.”

Service was restored in the U.S.  on Sunday, January 19. “In agreement with our service providers, TikTok is in the process of restoring service,” TikTok explained in a statement shared via social media.

The TikTok Ban Explained: What Does It Mean for Influencers and Followers?

“We thank President Trump for providing the necessary clarity and assurance to our service providers that they will face no penalties providing TikTok to over 170 million Americans and allowing over 7 million small businesses to thrive,” the statement continued. “It’s a strong stand for the First Amendment and against arbitrary censorship. We will work with President Trump on a long-term solution that keeps TikTok in the United States.”

The app stopped working for users in the United States a few hours before midnight on the following day. Prior to and in the few hours during the black out, numerous celebrities spoke out about the ban.

Singer Kesha jokingly reminded her followers that her hit 2010 single “Tik Tok” would always be available for them no matter what happened to the app by the same name. In a video shared via Instagram on Saturday, the singer wore a black hoodie and closed her eyes while part of her 2010 hit song played. Over the video, she wrote, “TikTok may be temporary, but TiK ToK is forever,” adding both a peace sign and black heart emoji. The song was an instant hit when it debuted, spending nine weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Henry Cavill and girlfriend Natalie Viscuso are still flying as fast as a speeding bullet.

The Superman star and the Vertigo Entertainment executive first made headlines with their relationship in 2021 and have been each other’s biggest supporters ever since. Soon after taking their romance public, Viscuso shared her support for Cavill.

“I am so, so proud of you, Henry. You truly are the greatest man I have ever known,” she wrote via Instagram in 2021. “The Hollywood Reporter did an incredible job with this cover story – it really is a great read. SO PROUD I’m literally crying. .”

Three years later, Cavill confirmed he and Viscuso are expecting their first baby. “I’m enjoying this stage of my life very much so,” he gushed to Entertainment Tonight in April 2024. “I’m turning 41 in May and I have a real sense of approaching everything with more — more direction now.”

Cavill clapped back at critics of his relationship. “I couldn’t help but notice that there has been some social animosity of late. It’s becoming increasingly prevalent on my feed,” he wrote via Instagram at the time. “There has been lots of, let’s call it speculation for now, about my private life and professional partnerships.”

He went on to ask his followers to refrain from commenting on his personal life. “I know it can be fun to speculate, to gossip, and to dive into our own personal echo chambers on the internet, but your ‘passion’ is misplaced, and it causes harm to the people I care about most,” he added. “Even your most conservative of negative assumptions about both my personal and professional life just aren’t true.”

Glenn Close has pinpointed the movie that she believes made audiences finally realize she could be more than Cruella de Vil — her 1978 film Fatal Attraction.

“I think it was the first time people realized I could be sexy,” Close, 77, said during an interview with Today’s Willie Geist on the Sunday, January 19 episode of Sunday Sitdown.

The movie stars Close as Alex Forrest, a woman who starts an affair with Dan Gallagher (Michael Douglas). She becomes steadily more and more mentally unstable as it becomes clear he’s trying to end the relationship, ultimately to her demise.

The film began as the short Diversion before it was developed into a feature-length production by writer-director James Dearden. It spent eight weeks at No. 1 in the box office and was the second-highest-grossing film in 1987, falling short of Three Men and a Baby. Fatal Attraction earned more than $157 million domestically and earned six Academy Award nominations, including for Close.

In addition to reminiscing on her storied Hollywood career, Close has recently opened up about her personal life. While appearing on  The Drew Barrymore Show on Monday, January 13, the actress was asked if she’s dated since her 2015 divorce from David Shaw. (The pair were married for nine years.) Close revealed that not only has she been single the entire time, she is “very happy right now.”

After host Drew Barrymore asked if Close has tried any dating apps, she replied, “Are you crazy?” before she added, “No, I’m too shy to do that.”

Close also said she’s not especially interested in finding a relationship. “I’m not searching,” she added. “Because I’m actually, I’m not a hugely, comfortably, social person, so I don’t leap to go to a party.”

What Did Glenn Close Say During Censored Golden Globes Speech?

Prior to her marriage to Shaw, Close was married to James Marlas from 1984 to 1987 and Cabot Wade from 1969 to 1971. She also shares daughter, Annie Starke Albu, with ex-boyfriend John Starke.

The actress went on to star in several critically acclaimed films following Fatal Attraction, including Dangerous Liaisons, The Wife, Hillbilly Elegy, Air Force One and 101 Dalmations. She also earned an Emmy Award for the 1995 TV movie Serving in Silence: The Margarethe Cammermeyer Story.

Close has yet to win an Academy Award for acting, despite having been nominated eight times throughout her career. In 2021, she told Variety that she’s not too upset about having lost out. “It’s beyond me. I don’t know what to say about that,” she explained. I just have to keep doing what’s good. You’re fulfilled by your work, and that’s the process to me. It’s what feeds my soul, but it really is nice when other people like it. It might be cool to never get one.”

While turning 70, Kevin Costner is remembering the late Whitney Houston.

Costner marked his 70th trip around the sun on Saturday, January 18, sharing a throwback photo via Instagram Story of himself and the late singer while on the set of 1992’s Bodyguard. The pair both starred in the romantic thriller, which earned two 1993 Academy Award nominations for Best Original Song.

“This photo reminds me of how lucky I am to be getting another birthday,” the Yellowstone star wrote. “We lost such a light when we lost Whitney.”

The photo was originally shared via Houston’s Instagram, now managed by her estate, to honor Costner’s milestone birthday. “Happy birthday to Kevin Costner!” the caption read. “A behind the scenes photo from The Bodyguard with Kevin, Whitney and Ellin La Var, Whitney’s hair stylist for the film.”

Costner has previously been open about the love he still has for Houston, who died in 2012 at the age of 48. “I loved her — it’s not like this giant mystery — so I knew that she should be the one,” he said on a June 2024 episode of “Armchair Expert” podcast.

At the time, Costner, who also produced the film, recalled that Bodyguard director Mick Jackson was “afraid” of Houston, so the actor “started to guide her” on set. The actor said he had to advise the singer “not to bring an entourage” during the film’s production.

“And I wasn’t trying to usurp my director, but I had made a promise to her, not to f—ing him,” Costner continued, noting he had promised Houston the film would perform well in theaters despite poor reception during test screenings.

“I was always gonna keep my promise to her,” he said. “[I said], ‘I’m gonna take care of you if there’s a person important to you’ — turned out to be Robyn Crawford — I said, ‘Let’s have Robyn with you.’ And that’s how we started.”

He added, “I don’t know what it was, but we had a moment, and I realized that the world had a higher idea of who we were, so I basically embraced it. I was her imaginary bodyguard.”

Since her death, the Dances with Wolves alum has spoken candidly about her legacy, and was among many friends and loved ones who spoke in her honor at her funeral service in 2012.

“Whitney returns home today to the place where it all began,” he told mourners at the time. “And I urge us all, inside and outside, across the nation and around the world to dry our tears, suspend our sorrow — and perhaps our anger — just long enough, just long enough to remember the sweet miracle of Whitney.”

“Off you go, Whitney, off you go,” he continued. “Escorted by an army of angels to your heavenly father, and when you sing before him, don’t worry … you’ll be good enough.”

Dolly Parton must work longer than 9 to 5 to balance her music and impressive charitable efforts.

In 2022, Parton was honored with the Carnegie Medal of Philanthropy for her decades of good deeds and gushed over how “proud” she was to receive the recognition. Her acts of kindness include the creation of The Dollywood Foundation and donating funds to vaccine research after the coronavirus pandemic outbreak in 2020.

“What an honor it is just to be here. I really am just honored and proud to be amongst these great people and doing all these great things to help the world, as they say,” Parton said in October 2022 while accepting the medal. “I just give from my heart. I never know what I’m going to do or why I’m going to do it. I just see a need and if I can fill it then I will.”

The Grammy winner continued: “If I can just do my small part in this world then that’s all that I ask in this world. I am very proud of the Imagination Library, so that is very dear to me. I just hope that I can continue to do good things.”

Scroll down to see some of Parton’s most charitable moments:

1988

Parton launched her non-profit organization The Dollywood Foundation in April 1988 in Sevierville, Tennessee. The goal was to increase the number of local high school graduates and decrease the dropout rate.

The “Jolene” singer also created the Buddy Program, which gave $500 to every seventh and eighth grader in the area who finished high school. The initiation was successful with the dropout rate going from 35 percent to only 6 percent, according to the foundation’s website.

1991

As part of her successful theme park, Dollywood, Parton opened the Eagle Mountain Sanctuary. The space spans 30,000 square feet and is managed by the American Eagle Foundations shelters to help ensure the safety of the bald eagles.

1995

The musician expanded The Dollywood Foundation with Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library. The program gifts children under five a book monthly to help with literacy and further learning in all areas of the country — and internationally. In 2018, Parton reached a milestone as the Imagination Library sent out its 100 millionth book.

2000

The foundation began five scholarships of $15,000, dubbed the Dolly Parton Scholarship, to Sevier County’s high school seniors to help students continue their studies at an accredited university. “The scholarships are for students who have a dream they wish to pursue and who can successfully communicate their plan and commitment to realize their dreams,” the website reads.

2007

Parton once again gave back to her community by helping raise $500,000 for the Sevier County Hospital by putting on a benefit concert. Dollywood and Parton’s Dixie Stampede dinner theater each pledged $250,000, totalling $1 million for the fundraiser. The funds were used to open the LeConte Medical Center, which is a hospital and cancer center, in 2010.

2016 

Following devastating wildfires in Tennessee that tore through the Great Smoky Mountains, Parton created the My People Fund under her Dollywood Foundation umbrella. The fund distributed $1,000 per month for six months to families who lost their main residence. The foundation revealed in 2017 that more than $12 million was raised and distributed to those in need during that past year.

2017

After releasing her children’s album, I Believe in You, Patron donated $1 million to Vanderbilt University Medical Center’s Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital. The donation was made in honor of Parton’s niece who was treated for leukemia at the hospital.

2020

In spring of 2020, Parton was one of many celebrities who designed a spatula for Williams-Sonoma’s collection of charitable kitchenware. Parton’s design helped earn money for the company’s annual Cook for a Cause campaign.

That same year, the actress made headlines for donating money to coronavirus vaccine research following the worldwide pandemic spike. Parton gave $1 million to assist Moderna’s vaccine research, which was reported to be 94.5 percent effective against the virus.

“I’m just happy that anything I do can help somebody else,” Parton told Today at the time. “When I donated the money to the COVID fund, I just wanted it to do good. Evidently, it is. Let’s just hope we find a cure real soon.”

2021

When Tennessee’s Humphreys County experienced unprecedented flooding and damage, Parton stepped up and raised $700,000 to get people back on their feet. Parton’s Dollywood and Pigeon Forge dinner show properties gifted a portion of the ticket sales during two October 2021 dates to benefit the United Way of Humphreys County.

Parton’s late friend Loretta Lynn was responsible for the choice in charity. “After the Sevier County wildfires in 2016, Loretta was one of the first who reached out to offer anything she could,” Parton said in a statement. “It meant so much to me that Loretta — and so many folks — were ready to give in any way they could. This was just one small way I could help Loretta’s people for all they did to help my people.”

Harry Styles’ ‘Love on Tour’ Donates $6.5 Million to Over 25 Charities

Earlier that year, Parton revealed that she used some of the royalties from Whitney Houston’s cover of her song “I Will Always Love You” to give back to a Black neighborhood in Nashville. “It was mostly just Black families and people that lived around there,” Parton said during an August 2021 appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, sharing that she invested in an office complex in the area. “It was a whole strip mall. And I thought, ‘This is the perfect place for me to be, considering it was Whitney.’”

She continued: “I just thought, ‘This was great. I’m going to be down here with her people, who are my people as well.’ And so I just love the fact that I spent that money on a complex. And I think, ‘This is the house that Whitney built.’”

2022

Parton announced in February 2022 that Dollywood — through its operating partner Herschend Enterprises — would start covering 100 percent of tuition, fees and book costs for any employee who is going to college to further their education.

Four months later, the “Here You Come Again” singer donated $1 million to Vanderbilt University Medical Center to help the hospital’s pediatric infectious disease research.

2024

Parton personally pledged a million dollars to the Mountain Ways Foundation, which helped East Tennessee communities that were impacted by Hurricane Helene. Her donation would be matched by her companies, which included the Dollywood Foundation and Dollywood Parks and Resorts. The East Tennessee native shared that she would be making the donations in partnership with Walmart.

Kylie Kelce has bled Philadelphia green long before she fell in love with now-retired Eagles center Jason Kelce.

“You might have heard a few stories about my intense fandom on [Jason’s ‘New Heights’] podcast, but I figured the playoffs is the perfect time to share with you all of the things that happen while watching an Eagles game in my house,” Kylie, 32, said during the Thursday, January 16, episode of her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast. “Before I say anything, note I have a piece of wood to knock on throughout this segment — because that’s how superstitious I am.”

She added, “I can’t help but feel responsible if I say something that maybe can be considered a jinx [and so] when you hear knocking it’s because I have to.”

Kylie was born and raised in Philadelphia, eventually connecting with 37-year-old Jason on the dating app Tinder during her final year of college. She later said that she had no idea that he played for the Eagles when she swiped right. After getting married in 2018, they went on to welcome three daughters.

Jason Kelce's Wife Kylie Isn’t Your Typical NFL Spouse: What She’s Said 

Before Jason retired in 2024, Kylie would attend every home game at “the Linc” — also known as the Lincoln Financial Field.

“We usually would not bring the girls [and] would usually keep them home, except for one game a year,” Kylie, who is currently pregnant with baby No. 4, continued. “They’re not really into it, so it didn’t make sense to drag them down there, have them in a place that was loud and overstimulating. We made that decision a while ago.”

Since Jason’s retirement, Kylie has primarily watched the Eagles via the TV in their living room.

“I am a ‘yell at the TV’ type,” she quipped. “The other day I got in a lot of trouble with [my second daughter] Ellie because I was yelling while the game was on. … The girls do usually hang out in the same room but don’t necessarily watch with me when I watch football.”

Kylie’s fandom reaches new heights whenever the Eagles are in the playoffs. (The team played a divisional round against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, January 19, vying for a slot in the NFC Championship later this month against the Washington Commanders.)

“Playoff Kylie is different from Regular Season Kylie because the superstitions take over the whole day,” the pregnant mother-of-three added. “From the start of the day to when the game is on, I will not check Twitter [and] I will avoid most social media. I will not post on a game day — and that [started] when Jason was still playing — and still now.”

Kylie Kelce Jokes About Stalking Eagles Players’ Wives Online

According to Kylie, she “has to focus” and can’t even hold a conversation that doesn’t revolve around the game.

“We have a job to do and that job is to lock in and send as much power and energy,” Kylie explained. “I’m not going to change my ways, so if you do it with conviction. … Go Birds!”

Spencer Pratt is reflecting on his and Heidi Montag’s efforts to generate income after losing their home in the Los Angeles wildfires.

“I made, like, $4,000 on TikTok this week, but on TikTok Live, where people can just give to me direct, I think maybe $20,000. So that’s phenomenal, and life-changing. That’s the power of individual supporters, people just backing you and getting behind you,” Pratt, 41, told Variety in an interview published on Friday, January 17. “And that’s the most powerful when you don’t have to rely on ads or AI and algorithms when just actual human beings just want to give. It’s unbelievable and incredible.”

When their home burned down earlier this month after the couple was forced to evacuate, Pratt began encouraging his followers on social media to stream Montag’s music. By January 12, Montag’s 2010 album Superficial was No. 1 on the iTunes U.S. album chart and the titular song ranked ahead of Rosé and Bruno Mars’ “APT.” on the iTunes U.S. singles chart.

Despite their success, Pratt said had “no idea” how much money he and Montag, 38, made from the music.

Spencer Pratt Thanks Fans After Asking for Help Amid L.A. Fires: 'A Miracle'

“I don’t know if it comes in checks or when, but everybody keeps telling me, ‘Don’t expect any money.’ I’m more excited about the energy and opportunities that come from it. I don’t think these streams and all these charts [make money],” Pratt said. “Based on what people are telling me, the music business is about touring, it’s about merchandise, it’s about all the things that come with it; that’s how the artists make money unless you’re doing billions of streams, which I’m still energetically [pushing]. It’s not happening yet! I’m being optimistic because truly, it’s the only way to get through all this.”

After Pratt, Montag and their sons Gunner, 6, and Ryker, 2, left the area, a pair of TikTok followers created a GoFundMe campaign on the family’s behalf. The followers have since transferred the campaign to Pratt and Montag, who stressed that they did not want to ask for contributions. Per the GoFundMe, the family has raised over $138,000 so far.

While many fans are supportive, some have criticized the couple for the campaign. Pratt and Montag, however, are not fazed by the “backlash.”

Spencer and Heidi Address 'Backlash' of Getting Donations: 'We're Not Rich'

“We’re very used to negative things, so it’s pretty standard,” Pratt exclusively told Us Weekly on Wednesday, January 15. “If people want to send their own money to whoever they want, it’s the equivalent to buying a celebrity’s merch, buying their movie tickets. People can do whatever they want with their own money and, thank God, there’s people who want to support and send us whatever.”

He continued, “Nobody’s required to, and it’s not a tax. People can say whatever they want and they’re entitled to their opinion. But, all the people that are messaging, they’re asking to send money, they’re asking to do the Amazon wishlist. … These are their choices.”

Melissa Rivers is reflecting on what she lost in the Los Angeles wildfires — none of which was her late mom Joan Rivers’ heirlooms.

“The jokes and the major archival pieces, fortunately, about two and a half, three months ago were picked up for a national comedy center,” Melissa, 56, told People in an interview published on Sunday, January 19.

Melissa noted that the filing cabinet featured over 65,000 of Joan’s original jokes from the beginning of her career in 1950 until her death in 2014. (Joan died at age 81 after experiencing complications during an outpatient throat surgery.)

Melissa added that Joan’s “good stuff,” meaning her jewelry, was in a security deposit box in a bank vault. Joan’s wardrobe has been auctioned off for charity.

Melissa Rivers Keeps Her Son's Expired Passport Pic in Her Khaite Tote

Melissa, who was one of the tens of thousands of locals forced to evacuate Los Angeles due to the ongoing wildfires, told CNN on January 8 that she grabbed Joan’s Emmy and a picture of her dad, Edgar Rosenberg, before leaving her home.

“That is the end of everything that belonged to my family and the history of it,” Melissa told the news organization at the time. “I grabbed my mom’s Emmy, a photo of my dad and a drawing my mother had done of me and my son. … I went for a drawing of hers, rather than a photo. I know I can find the photos, but a drawing I can’t replace.”

Besides the items she took before leaving her home, Melissa lost her other memories of her parents.

“I had her bathrobe and my dad’s bathrobe,” she told People. “Everybody is like, ‘What about her wardrobe?’ But I’m like, I lost the only three things of theirs that I kept in my house because they reminded me so much of them.”

Melissa Rivers Says Mom Would Have Much More 'Fashion Police' Material Today

Melissa explained that she and her fiancé, Steve Mitchel, lost “everything,” adding, “When we say we lost everything, well you can’t get it until you see the video. It’s not just my life, but my son Cooper’s life too. We were both only children, and just all of it is gone.”

Melissa, who welcomed son Cooper, 24, with John Endicott in 2000, said her life is inside three L.L. Bean boat totes. Melissa noted that she and her family are doing “as well as can be expected.”

“We’re all doing the best we can,” she said. “Cooper’s made of the same tough stuff I am. And we are all leaning on each other and coping.”

Now, Melissa has found temporary housing and is embracing her inherited sense of humor while she and her family navigate what’s next. “It’s my superpower,” she said of laughing during the worst times, like Joan. “I am my parents’ daughter.”

Los Angeles Rams star Tyler Higbee has the sweetest sideline support in wife Malea Higbee.

“What a wild couple months it’s been. Watching this love of mine put so much work in and grow into someone better and stronger is special to me,” Malea wrote via Instagram in December 2024 as he recovered from a chest injury. “It’s been a process, but I respect and admire everything about him and his mental strength. Multiple surgeries (mcl acl meniscus AND played with a torn labrum all last year) at year 9 is a hard pill to swallow.”

She added, “I’m so incredibly proud of how he handled pressure with humility, while still championing those around him. Equal parts mentally tough as physically; and that is what makes him an incredible husband and dada first and foremost, a leader, resilient, humble, disciplined, a great teammate, a mf dawg and ‘the greatest tight end in horns history.’”

At the time, Malea also gushed that Tyler is “everything.”

Rami Malek and partner Emma Corrin intentionally keep their romance relatively private, but it appears that they are still going strong.

“That person [is] fascinating,” Malek, 43, gushed to The Guardian in a profile published on Saturday, January 18, when asked about dating Corrin, 29.

According to the outlet, Malek declined to offer details about their romance besides referring to The Crown alum as “Em” or “My Person.” The reporter then described Corrin — who uses they/them pronouns — as smart and quirky, to which Malek concurred.

“We like quirky,” Malek quipped and while flashing a reported half-smile.

Rami Malek Spotted With Emma Corrin After Reported Lucy Boynton Split

The Oscar winner also told the journalist that Corrin even threw him a surprise dinner for Thanksgiving 2024, of which he was reportedly “blown away.”

Malek and Corrin were first romantically linked in July 2023 when they were spotted together at Bruce Springsteen’s concert in London. The following September, the pair were seen kissing on another date in the British capital city.

Prior to his romance with Corrin, Malek dated Bohemian Rhapsody costar Lucy Boynton for nearly five years. He’s also gotten candid about his future romantic hopes.

“I’m in my mid-30s going through these, kind of, existential questions about who I am and what I’m doing here and if I’m supposed to be fulfilling some type of destiny,” Malek said during an October 2016 interview with TheWrap. “[I’m questioning] the work I’m doing or should I be a family man by now?”

He added, “I saw this guy [in Buster’s Mal Heart] who had a family and had this idea of what it was to love that family and give them everything, but also wanted a sense of freedom. … The question arose if those two things can coexist in equilibrium. If you can really have something as fierce as love and freedom at the same time or is it a paradox?”

Emma Corrin Thinks Transphobic Reactions to Queerness Is Out of 'Fear'

Corrin, for their part, has been outspoken about their sexuality.

“In my mind, gender just isn’t something that feels fixed and I don’t know if it ever will be; there might always be some fluidity there for me,” Corrin told Vogue in August 2022, declining to label their sexuality. “I like people. … My first date with a girl, they were like, ‘Oh! You’re a baby queer!’ It was amazing. We actually didn’t end up seeing each other again, but she really gave me the lowdown.”

They continued, “I’m working out all this complex gender and sexuality stuff. And yet, I’m seeing a guy? That feels very juxtaposed, even if I’m very happy.””

Halsey is reflecting on their two year transformation following their health diagnosis.

“Hey. I just wanna say; I looked and felt like this two years ago and every step forward I have come since then is a miracle,” Halsey, 30, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, January 18. (Halsey goes by she/they pronouns.)

Halsey shared a series of recent photos, showing the singer holding up an iPhone revealing a selfie of her from two years ago. In two of the pictures taken recently, Halsey smiled and laughed as they held up the previous image.

“I’m figuring it out on my own time, thank you to everyone who has been along for the ride,” Halsey continued. “Also I’m cute as f— now, so that’s great. .”

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by halsey (@iamhalsey)

Halsey shared in June 2024 that she was “lucky to be alive” following a secret health battle. Halsey explained that her health scare inspired new song “The End.”

“Every couple of years now, a doctor says I’m sick / Pulls out a brand new bag of tricks / and then they lay it on me,” Halsey sings. “And at first, it was my brain / then a skeleton in pain / And I don’t like to complain, but I’m saying sorry.”

She continues, “When I met you, I said I would never die / But the joke was always mine ’cause I’m racing against time / And I know it’s not the end of the world, but could you pick me up at 8? / ‘Cause my treatment starts today.”

Hours later, Halsey shared that they had been diagnosed with Lupus SLE and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder two years before. “Both of which are currently being managed or in remission; and both of which I will likely have for the duration of my life,” Halsey wrote via Instagram at the time.

She continued, “After a rocky start, I slowly got everything under control with the help of amazing doctors. After 2 years, I’m feeling better and I’m more grateful than ever to have music to turn to.”

Halsey shared that she was grateful for her fans supporting the song. “Thank you guys for the unbelievable amount of love for ‘The End’ and the support you’ve shown me since its release,” Halsey concluded. “I realize everyone is catching up with news I’ve held in for a very long time, and I wasn’t sure how much I wanted to share.”

Halsey gushed that she “can’t wait to get back where [they] belong” and perform for fans again.

TikTok is “restoring service” to users in the United States following a brief ‘blackout,’ the app announced on Sunday, January 19 via a statement shared on social media. “In agreement with our service providers, TikTok is in the process of restoring service.”

“We thank President Trump for providing the necessary clarity and assurance to our service providers that they will face no penalties providing TikTok to over 170 million Americans and allowing over 7 million small businesses to thrive,” the statement continued. “It’s a strong stand for the First Amendment and against arbitrary censorship. We will work with President Trump on a long-term solution that keeps TikTok in the United States.”

On Friday, January 17 the Supreme Court issued an unanimous ruling to uphold the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, which banned the app nationwide.

“I join all but Part II.A of the Court’s per curiam opinion. I see no reason to assume without deciding that the Act implicates the First Amendment because our precedent leaves no doubt that it does,” wrote Justice Sonia Sotomayer in her judgment. “TikTok engages in expressive activity by ‘compiling and curating’ material on its platform.”

The app stopped working for users in the United States a few hours before midnight on Saturday, January 18. Prior to and in the few hours during the black out, numerous celebrities spoke out about the ban. 

Singer Kesha jokingly reminded her followers that her hit 2010 single “Tik Tok” would always be available for them no matter what happened to the app by the same name. In a video shared via Instagram on Saturday, January 18, the singer wore a black hoodie and closed her eyes while part of her 2010 hit song played. Over the video, she wrote, “TikTok may be temporary, but TiK ToK is forever,” adding both a peace sign and black heart emoji. The song was an instant hit when it debuted, spending nine weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. 

Kylie Kelce also commented on the looming ban. “There’s something that’s been weighing on me heavily over the past few days,” Kelce said on the January 16 episode of her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast. “It looks like my favorite app, TikTok, might actually be going away for good. Hopefully, it doesn’t, and I can doom-scroll until the end of time. But, just in case, I want to properly pour one out for TikTok.”

“I think everyone loses,” Marc D’Amelio said in ABC News Studios’ IMPACT x Nightline special from May 2024. “I think small business loses. I think the politicians lose also.”

Marc and his wife, Heidi D’Amelio, are the parents to social media mavens Dixie and Charli, whose online dances went viral in 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic.

“We didn’t call ourselves the first family of TikTok,” Marc, 56, added in the ABC News special. “It’s hard to believe that many people sat and watched a video. I think the ability to turn someone who’s obscure into an overnight, famous person, I don’t think there’s any other platform like that.”

Rami Malek claimed that he was once suspected of an alleged crime because authorities allegedly believed he “fit the description.”

“I got thrown on the bonnet of an [Los Angeles Police Department] cop car because someone had robbed a liquor store and stolen a woman’s bag,” the Oscar winner, 43, alleged in a Guardian profile published on Saturday, January 18. “They said the [thief] was of Latin descent and, ‘You fit the description.’”

He added, “I remember how hot that engine was, they must have been racing over there and it was almost burning my hands. My friend, who was Caucasian, was clever enough to go, ‘Actually, sir, he’s Egyptian. Not Latin.’ I remember laughing on the cop car, thinking, ‘OK, this is a very precarious situation. I may well be going to jail for something I’ve not done.’”

Malek is Egyptian-American, whose parents immigrated from Cairo before he was born. In the Guardian profile, Malek did not offer further details about the alleged police incident or when it seemingly occurred. The LAPD has not spoken out about the reported encounter. Us Weekly has reached out for comment.

Rami Malek Spotted With Emma Corrin After Reported Lucy Boynton Split

Malek, meanwhile, has allegedly faced similar incidents of mistaken identity due to his background.

“It’s difficult enough traveling. Don’t make it harder,” he told the British outlet. “I started to think, ‘What is happening?’ every time I tried to enter a country. These days, there might be a moment. Then they’ll go, ‘Nah, that’s the guy from Bohemian Rhapsody. Let him through.’”

Malek, who won an Oscar for his role in Bohemian Rhapsody as Queen frontman Freddie Mercury, grew up in L.A. with his parents and twin brother Sami. Their Middle Eastern heritage was always apparent to the siblings.

“I don’t know how you ever get over that. I’m what’s called ‘white-passing,’ but I have very distinctive features, and we definitely didn’t fit in,” Malek recalled to The Guardian. “We just had an uncanny way of sensing people. … I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse.
