CHRISTINA AGUILERA
The “Dirrty” singer said that swallowing after oral sex is an absolute must. “Swallowing is really a good thing. … It’s got a lot of protein,” Christina revealed on the April 5, episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast.
She called herself a “promoter of the swallow,” and added, “There is something to be said [for doing so] after you put in the hard work.”
The Voice alum also had other sex tips, including how it is “really important to be with a partner where you can really explore.” She said, “Sexuality is a very specific thing, so, like, what one guy might like, another one doesn’t,” and gave examples.
“There are some guys that don’t like their balls being touched … and there are some guys that like brutal things happening to them. There [are] a lot of different levels,” Xtina explained.
The “Dirrty” singer has done the deed on a commercial flight (“under blankets,” she clarified) and “bent over on a soundboard” in a music studio —and once shared her love of BJs in an interview. The 43-year-old, engaged to Matthew Rutler since 2014, says it’s all about being with the right person, noting, “It’s really important to be with a partner where you can really explore.”

ALEXA PENAVEGA
Hallmark actress Alexa PenaVega opened up about her bedroom behavior with husband Carlos PenaVega and why viewing sex like “going to the gym” helped their relationship.
“I would enjoy it but it wasn’t this thing I craved all the time. And he’s a man so he’s like ‘I want you to want me.’ I started trying to own the sex part of our marriage a bit more and really work on that,” the Spy Kids star said on her “Heaven In Your Home” podcast. “It wasn’t necessarily because I was gung ho and ready for it,” she said. “It was one of those things where — this is going to sound terrible — but you know how you don’t necessarily want to go to the gym at the beginning, but then once you start going you’re like ‘I have to go every day, this is great. I feel good, my body feels good.’”

PAMELA ANDERSON
In her memoir, Love, Pamela, the Baywatch alum alleged that she witnessed Jack Nicholson getting in on with two women at the Playboy Mansion.
“Mr. Nicholson had two beautiful women with him,” Pamela wrote, per Variety. “They were all giggling and kissing up against the wall, sliding all over each other. … I walked by to use the mirror, bending over the sink to fix my lip gloss. Trying not to look, but I couldn’t help myself and caught his eye in the reflection. I guess that got him to the finish line because he made a funny noise, smiled and said, ‘Thanks, dear.’”

He may be the star of Fifty Shades of Grey, but off camera Jamie Dornan couldn’t have less in common with his alter-ego’s ticks. When asked by GQ whether he’s into S&M in real life, he quips: “It doesn’t float my boat I’ve always been open-minded and liberal — I’d never judge anyone’s sexual preference. Whatever gets people off is entirely up to them and there’s a million different ways to please yourself, sexually.”

RENÉE ZELLWEGER AND HUGH GRANT
Hugh Grant admitted to W Magazine in September 2016 that he finds shooting a sex scene rather saucy. “Sex scenes are something else! The conventional response to sex scenes is that they’re horrible and not sexy and it’s all so unnatural. But I’ve always found filming sex scenes to be quite a turn-on. I like the experience of being in a sexual position when you’re not supposed to be in one.”

HAILEY BIEBER AND JUSTIN BIEBER
Hailey Bieber gave insight into what her sex life with her husband, Justin Bieber, is like while appearing on a September 2022 episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast.
“Personally, [threesomes] … that wouldn’t work. I think sometimes for some people it does. … I think the second you make the decision to do that there’s never going back from that, and I just don’t know that I would ever be willing,” the model admitted. “We’ve worked very hard to be in the space that we’re in now and trusting each other. There’s such a beautiful trust and bond that I don’t think that’s something I would be comfortable with. Or him, for that matter.”

JENNIFER COOLIDGE
In August 2022, Jennifer Coolidge revealed that her role as Stifler’s mom in American Pie helped improve her sex life.
“I got a lot of play being a MILF and I got a lot of sexual action from American Pie,” she told Variety. “There were so many benefits to doing that movie. I mean there would be, like, 200 people that I would have never slept with.”
Jennifer continued to publicly discuss her sex life while being interviewed by Ariana Grande for Entertainment Weekly in December 2022.
She clarified the past comments about the amount of people she slept with because of her role in American Pie. “I did say that jokingly [in a previous interview] and, God, you really can’t make jokes in our town, because I did make the terrible mistake of saying, ‘Thank God for that movie, I got to sleep with 200 men,” or whatever. And look, I would love to say that was true, but I mean, that was sort of an exaggeration – so I’m glad you’re asking me,” the White Lotus actress admitted. “But it did sort of open up the world to a much broader group of handsome men – and younger men.”
“This one guy was particularly young – legal, of course, it was all very legal – but it was funny because we had to… The one moment was a little bit awkward because he… I won’t get into the details,” Jennifer continued. “But afterwards, the next morning, I told him I needed to get a blow dry. So he was so young, we called his mother to see where I could get a blow dry. It was so weird that happened on the phone, it was very clear that we were in the bed together.”
She then explained that the younger man’s mom ultimately gave her a good recommendation for where to get a blow dry at a local mall, so “it all worked out.”

CARA DELEVIGNE
Cara Delevingne opened up about the type of lover she is while talking to RuPaul on his “What’s the Tee?” podcast in March 2019.
“I, like, as a person, generally I’m really good at giving love and not receiving it and I’m kind of the same bed as well,” the model said. “There’s a part of where I find it quite difficult to receive pleasure or love or things like that, and so I just kind of like to give.”
The model also says the act tops her social calendar: “I’d rather have sex than go out now.”

KELLY RIPA AND MARK CONSUELOS
Kelly Ripa detailed a sexual encounter with her husband, Mark Consuelos, from 1997 that resulted with her blacking out and being hospitalized in her 2022 memoir, Live Wire: Long-Winded Short Stories.
“My eyes shift between the fuzzy images on the screen, the remnants of my ovarian tormentor, and Mark happily snacking away,” the talk show host recalled of waking up in the hospital.
“Sex can be so traumatic I think, and yet one of us is completely undaunted,” Kelly explained of Mark. “There he is, happily munching on the saltines now and ordering a second apple juice. Mark could be at a movie, or a spa. Instead, I’m flat on my back wondering when the other two cysts will burst.”
Kelly then woke up to learn that Mark had dressed her in a 1980s French-cut leotard, an oversized pair of track pants and “f–k me” Manolo Blahniks for the hospital visit.
“Also, here is my husband, who is, dare I say, stylish, well-dressed at all times, and yet he dressed me like a dime store prostitute in my time of need,” she wrote. “It’s still baffling to me to this day that this is the best costume for the day that he could find for me, to the point where, when I was on the stretcher, I thought I was dreaming; I was having a nightmare. I didn’t realize I had come to.”

“I’m a dirty bird, but just in the corners of my mind where I never will tell and it’s just for me,” the talk show host admitted — though the 49-year-old clarified that her wild days are behind her. “I can understand certain kinky things…. Listen, I’ve tried everything. I’ve done everything — that’s why I’m so boring now.”

CHARLIE PUTH
Isn’t it romantic? The singer recently fessed up that he came up with his song “Marks on My Neck” while he was “in the middle of the act” — and he took a break to craft the melody! “Maybe I should have focused on the act a little bit more, but the melody just kind of popped into my head,” said the 32-year-old, adding that he “stopped and recorded a little quick voice note and then had to get back into the act.”

ANNA FARIS
She’s up for a little role-play! “Sometimes I’ll put on, like, my short black bob wig that I have and I play a different character, because I’m an actress,” the Mom alum, 47, dished. “I like to play different characters sometimes in a romantic situation. I like that it sort of satisfies my sensibilities of getting to be someone else and it is also, like, a turn-on for a partner.”

CHELSEA HANDLER
Three’s a crowd! The 49-year-old revealed that she realized it was time to break up with an ex following a threesome with him and their masseuse. “I was very turned on by this woman. I ended up hooking up with her several times without the guy that I was dating,” she told Andy Cohen. “That’s when I knew it was time to break up with the guy.”
