Jennifer Coolidge is an absolute legend of the screen, having become famed for her performances in The White Lotus, Legally Blonde and A Cinderella Story.
The 63-year-old got her big break in 1999 when she starred in hit film American Pie as Stifler’s mom, which saw her find global fame and go on to have a dazzling career in TV and film.
While American Pie transformed Jennifer’s career, it also impacted her dating life. The actress previously admitted things would have been slightly more boring for her had she not featured in the classic film.
“American Pie was just – it helped my dating life in a way that I can’t ever explain. If I hadn’t had that movie, I don’t think… Well, let’s just say it would’ve been a very dull decade,” she said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.
Never one to hold back, Jennifer went on to share some juicy details about her dating life, even revealing who she thinks of as her best lover.
Coolidge was being interviewed by Ariana Grande, who asked: “You’ve spoken publicly about the tremendous impact that playing Stifler’s mom has had on your life. In particular, how much d**k it’s gotten you.
“Do you remember the best d**k you got from playing Stifler’s mom? Do you keep in touch?”
Ariana assured the actress that she’d completely understand if she didn’t want to answer the question, but Jennifer had no concerns about opening up.
She said: “No, I’m glad you asked this because, you see, I did say that jokingly 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.
“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.

She then clarified that what she meant was that the film introduced her to a ‘broader group of handsome men – and younger men’ including one who was ‘very, very charming’.
“This one guy was particularly young – legal, of course, it was all very legal,” she said. “I won’t get into the details.”
Jennifer added: “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.”

Hilariously, Ariana said that if she had been this young man’s mum, she imagined she’d have been starstruck by her son’s endeavours.
“I’m sure she was very thrilled and starstruck. I would’ve been thrilled. I would’ve been like, ‘Wow. Hello. What an honour to meet you,” Ariana said before Jennifer added that she got a solid recommendation for her blow dry.

Star of the original American Pie Jason Biggs has revealed the one scene that wouldn’t go down well if it were made today
It’s hard to believe that the iconic movie franchise is 25 years old and it seems teenagers aren’t receiving it in the same way we did all those years ago.
The 1999 teen comedy of course followed four high school pals—Jim (Biggs), Kevin (Thomas Ian Nicholas), Oz (Chris Klein), and Finch (Eddie Kaye Thomas)—on their quest to lose their virginity before graduation.
Among the various sexual misadventures, Jim’s dad (Eugene Levy) tries to prepare him for prom as he pursues foreign exchange student Nadia (Shannon Elizabeth).
We’ve also got to give a special mention to Stifler (Seann William Scott), everyone’s favourite character. With the acceptation of Stifler’s mom (Jennifer Coolidge), that is.
Now, even though the film is regarded as one of the best comedy movies of all time for a certain age group, Biggs has acknowledged that some scenes, one in particular, wouldn’t pass in today’s world.
I think we all know the scene (Universal Pictures)
In the scene, Jim sets up a webcam to secretly broadcast Nadia getting changed in his room.
While watching the stream unfold with his friends, Nadia begins to undress and masturbate on his bed.
Jim then rushes back over to his house to try and ‘get lucky’ in the process.
Initially shocked, Nadia likes the idea of getting it on with the high-school nerd.
However, things go terribly wrong when Jim accidentally streams the event to the entire school.
Not to mention, he prematurely ejaculates twice.
“It wouldn’t get made now and it couldn’t get made now,” Biggs told BuzzFeed News.
“It would be unacceptable what that represents, but at the time I remember reading the script and reading that part and being shocked that there was cameras on computers!
“That’s what I took away from it originally!”
Biggs said the scene isn’t appropriate for today’s world (Universal Pictures)
He added: “It was a very specific time. It was right as the internet was starting.
“We had that whole scene with the internet camera — which, by the way, would never get made now.”
This comes after a group of 16-to-19-year-olds were tasked with watching American Pie, along with a number of classic films by Vice, back in 2020.
After watching the movie, one 16-year-old fumed: “The only thing the male characters care about is having sex.
“They’re willing to say and do whatever just to convince the girls to have sex with them.”
Another 18-year-old said: “It’s bordering on incel attitudes.
“I think if you were a teenage boy watching this you’d basically feel entitled to behave however you wanted to towards women.
“The part where Jim and the other male characters film the foreign exchange student in his room is deeply problematic,” a 17-year-old added.

Margot Robbie opened up on what it was like to ‘pretend to touch herself for 17 hours’ while filming one of The Wolf of Wall Street‘s most memorable scenes,
Martin Scorsese’s beloved film follows the real-life story of millionaire stockbroker Jordan Belfort, played by Leonardo DiCaprio as he embarks on this to-riches journey and ultimate downfall.
Robbie featured as Naomi Lapaglia, based on Belfort’s real-life ex-wife.
The movie has largely been thought to have catapulted Robbie to fame.
In particular, a scene where Naomi seduces Jordan in their child’s nursery has stuck with fans.
And while the scene may have set pulses racing for viewers, Robbie has admitted filming it wasn’t the most pleasant experience.

“It doesn’t come across when you’re watching the movie, but in reality we’re in a tiny bedroom with 30 crew crammed in,” she told Porter.
“All men. And for 17 hours I’m pretending to be touching myself.
“It’s just a very weird thing and you have to bury the embarrassment and absurdity, really deep, and fully commit.”
It’s not the only time Robbie has spoken about the scene, having told IndieWire that it was originally quite a bit longer, and she was ‘dreading’ having to watch the full thing back.
She said: “It was when she was messing with him, saying how ‘it’s going to be nothing but short skirts for a very long time, Daddy,’ and she’s touching herself, effectively masturbating.
“And he starts telling her a story about their happy life together and how they got all this money, they got these security guards and blah, blah, blah.
“She’s getting more and more into the story, and she thinks she’s totally got him, but it’s just so uncomfortable once you see what’s coming.
“So she’s really touching herself a lot, really getting into it and moaning, and he’s going with this story. And then he says she’s on-camera and she freaks out and covers herself up.

“To somewhat of my relief, because I was secretly dreading that scene. That was going to be more uncomfortable to watch than the sex scene at the end. It was going to be really awkward.”
In the original script, Naomi was supposed to pull aside her underwear using her heel, but in the final cut, she pokes her stiletto heel into Jordan’s face.
Immediately after reading the script, Robbie knew it just couldn’t be done.
“I remember thinking when I read it, ‘That’s just impossible,’” Robbie said in an interview with The Globe and Mail.
“I was like, ‘No, I’m right, that is absolutely impossible.”
So because Robbie doesn’t possess absurd levels of flexibility, the scene ended up being changed.

A party planner for Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ has shared harrowing details about the rapper’s ‘freak-off’ parties.
Combs, 55, is currently incarcerated at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York, while he awaits trial.

He was arrested at a hotel in Manhattan in September before being charged with racketeering and sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion.
Combs has denied the allegations against him and issued a plea of not guilty after he was accused of using his ‘power and prestige’ to drug sex workers for his alleged ‘freak-offs’.
“As alleged in the Indictment, for years, Sean Combs used the business empire he controlled to sexually abuse and exploit women, as well as to commit other acts of violence and obstruction of justice,” US Attorney Damian Williams said in September.
“Today, he is charged with racketeering and sex trafficking offences. If you have been a victim of Combs’ alleged abuse – or if you know anything about his alleged crimes – we urge you to come forward.”
A legal statement from Combs’ representatives said that ‘in court the truth will prevail’, adding: “Mr Combs never sexually assaulted or trafficked anyone – man or woman, adult or minor.”

Meanwhile, an anonymous party planner, who claims to have worked with Diddy in the mid-noughties, has revealed some harrowing details about the ‘freak off’ parties.
Speaking to The New York Post – who claims to have independently verified the planner’s identity – they said: “Everywhere you looked, you’d see yourself reflected again and again.
“You can imagine what it would look like when people are naked and having sex on the floor, on the couches, wherever.
“… It was definitely a vibe he wanted to put out there, that everywhere you looked there would be sex happening. It was wall-to-wall debauchery.”
The planner said she was hired to arrange food and drink, as well as entertainment and decor, but had no say in who was invited or the sexual element of the events.
“He was hiring both men and women who called themselves ‘models,’ but it seemed obvious, at least to me, that they were actually sex workers,” she said.
“But that wasn’t my role; that would be the role of a member of his team. I just handled the mainstream stuff.”
Apparently, there was no expense spared for the parties, with the planner claiming they cost around $500,000 (£387,000) per event.
“This is for both the mainstream part, and then the sex party afterwards,” she claimed.

Another planner, who claims to have worked with Diddy in 2004 and 2005, also revealed some of the alleged requirements he had for female attendees.
“We would do a weigh-in, if necessary,” they told the New York Post.
“The girls had to be young and hot, so I always had a scale nearby in case I needed to make sure.
“The number was 140 pounds, but if a girl was really tall, there was a little bit of discretion involved.
“No flab, no cellulite. Not overly pierced or tattooed. No short hair. And the girls had to be young and hot.”

The Hawk Tuah trend still hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down, so you can’t blame the girl behind the hilariously explicit catchphrase for milking it for all it’s worth.
Haliey Welch has lawyered up, hired herself a manager and is keen to take advantage of pretty much any opportunity that is coming her way – apart from calls for her to join the adult industry.
The 21-year-old has been batting away bizarre offers from ‘creepy guys’ who were willing to pay up to $600 for her to ‘hawk tuah’ into a jar, while her spitting skills also managed to spark a new craze on Pornhub.
It was probably to be expected, due to the nature of the viral video which made Welch into an overnight star – but if you were hoping to see more of her on OnlyFans, don’t get your hopes up.
She has made it clear she doesn’t intend to profit from these kinds of fans, as she’s much more interested in getting her merch line of hawk tuah hats to take off.
Earlier this week, we got a highly-anticipated update from Welch about how life has been since footage of her street interview with YouTubers Tim and Dee TV blew up on social media.
She revealed how her parents reacted to her being dubbed the Hawk Tuah girl, clarified what she really meant by her comical choice of wording and opened up about being inundated by ‘disgusting’ messages from people online.
Now, Welch has brought her growing army of fans up to date on her own social media platform after growing sick and tired of people making fake accounts and posing as her.
In a clip shared to her official Instagram account (@hay_welch), she discussed the pros and cons of viral fame.
She began: “Three awesome things that have changed my life so far since all this has happened.

“Number one, I got over my stage fright,” Hawk Tuah Girl said. “I sang in front of 80,000 people with Zach Bryan the other night – and I cannot sing for sh*t. But I did it anyway!”
Secondly, Welch revealed she has now quit her job at a spring factory in her hometown of Belfast, Tennessee – which is where she was heading at 2.00am when she realised her bedroom tips had gone viral.
And her third favourite thing about going viral is that she now has a reason to ‘get ready more than one time out of the week’, with Welch quipping: “I’m not allowed to look like Adam Sandler anymore!’
But the viral star admitted it hasn’t ‘all been delightful’.

“I have to convince my Pawpaw (grandad) not to shoot the paparazzi outside of our house everyday. Because they’ve been camped out here for like two weeks.
“Number two, stop asking me for the link in bio for my OnlyFans. I don’t have an OnlyFans and there will never be an OnlyFans. I just make funny jokes, that’s all I do,” she said.
Leave Hawk Tuah Girl alone, you lot!
Welch also said that she is ‘tired of the imposters and all of the fake accounts’ posing as her on the internet, while also taking aim at those making their own Hawk Tuah merchandise and flogging it online.
She said: “Any of you selling or purchasing merchandise online, it’s not from me. It’s not approved by me, it’s counterfeit – and I’m not making a damn dime off of it.
“But, I just hired a manager and I hired an attorney, so we’re coming for you b**ches! But don’t worry, I’m launching my merch store very soon and you’ll be the first to know where to get your official Hawk Tuah merch, from me.”
Social media users said they were so glad to see Welch thriving and making the most of her 15 minutes of fame.
One wrote: “Hawk Tuah for president!”
Another said: “No OnlyFans puts you at the top of the pyramid.”
A third added: ” Her accent and the fact she don’t give a f*** is quality lol.”
A fourth commented: “Good for you girl. Stack that paper!”
While a fifth chimed in: “She is your typical girl with a sense of humour who keeps it real. Can’t believe some people are asking if she has an OnlyFans, wtf.”
