Did you ever wonder if Valentine's Day is really necessary or just a clever marketing ploy? Join us as Heather and I meander through the tangled webs of love, nostalgia, and the good old days. We kick off with fond memories of our teenage escapades, relishing arcade adventures and carefree youth. Fast forward to today, we share some laughs about a recent sports game where the green team emerged victorious and poke fun at the quirky superstitions we followed. Despite the excitement, we decide to skip the city's bustling celebration, as the idea of battling logistics, weather, and crowds becomes less tempting with age.
As the spirit of Valentine's Day looms, we shift gears to chat about the holiday's significance and whether love deserves a designated day. Reflecting on iconic celebrity couples from yesteryears, we reminisce about Brad Pitt's tousled hair and Gwyneth Paltrow's youthful reflections. Our banter takes a spirited turn, sharing opinions on classic films, like "12 Monkeys" and "Oceans 11," and exploring the highs and lows of celebrity relationships. From Johnny Depp's timeless allure to Madonna and Sean Penn's dramatic tales, we weave our own humorous anecdotes and insights into this glitzy narrative.
To wrap things up, we journey through the fascinating realm of Hollywood romances and pop culture. Revel in the nostalgia of "Spy Kids," the magnetic charm of Antonio Banderas and Harrison Ford, and the unforgettable escapades of celebrities like Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson. As we toast to self-love this Valentine's Day, we encourage treating yourself to something special and invite you to follow our podcast journey on social media for more stories, laughs, and surprises. Whether you're strolling down memory lane or keeping up with today's buzz, tune in and let us entertain you with another delightful episode of Like Whatever. #genx #90s #celebrity #love

Speaker 1Welcome to Like Whatever a podcast for, by and about Gen X, I'm Nicole and this is my BFF.
Speaker 2Heather, how about them birds? How about them birds? So did you have a week of something? Anything happen this week.
Speaker 1I mean not really Like. Sunday evening was a little exciting. What'd you do? There was a game on the sports ball game. The sports ball game, Correct. Correct, it was a red team and a green team, I heard, and the green team dominated the red team.
Speaker 2How about that? How about that? How about it? That was a great game.
Speaker 1It was Like my husband said it was the easiest game we watched all year.
Speaker 2It really was. It was a complete and total domination, left, right, center.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, I mean, I still didn't feel comfortable the whole time, the whole time.
Speaker 2No, you can't ever feel comfortable in that situation.
Speaker 1No, I was even carefully not jinxing like oh my god, are we gonna win? Like nope.
Speaker 2None of those words came out of my mouth I think my mom did jinx the um shut out. Oh yeah, because she said looks like we're gonna and I was like do not finish that sentence. And she said looks like we're going to. And I was like do not finish that sentence. And she said looks like we're going to have a shot. And I was like I told you not to say it. What's wrong with you, lady?
Speaker 1Well, now we know why that didn't happen.
Speaker 2Blame it on my mom everybody I don't know, she's hard to keep quiet.
Speaker 1So yeah, our city of Philadelphia will be celebrating on Friday, the day this comes out. We've kind of collectively I think everyone we know has all kind of decided we're not going to do it again.
Speaker 2I can't. It's too much of a day, it's too much. It's cold, it's snowed here and I've been tromping through snow all day and I just the mere thought of it just is exhausting. Yeah, it's such a day. Yeah.
Speaker 1It is.
Speaker 2Like I said, if it was like 20 minutes away, sure I'd be all about it.
Speaker 1Yeah, it's like when the Firefly Music Festival used to be here in Dover, like it was 10 minutes from my house.
Speaker 2Yeah, okay, yeah, I'll go for all four days because I can go home and shower and go to bed and get up and cook a real meal. Yeah, I just sure. No, thanks, I can't. Though when we went, when we went the last one, it was enough for me yeah, it really was.
Speaker 1I agree with that I I mean really, I don't think I have any urge at all.
Speaker 2I don't Like, I do, but I don't Like if I could just teleport there and then teleport out immediately.
Speaker 1Like, the fan in me thinks I should be more excited and be considering going. But the old lady in me is like meh, you're good, it's a real struggle. You're good, trust us on this one, you're good. The old lady is a real struggle, yeah, and she's usually right, she takes over nine out of ten times. She has a lot of wisdom. She has a been there, done that attitude.
Speaker 2Yes, and she says you remember the last time we didn't have that much fun, the last time? No, we didn't. So yeah, it's just too many people in one. Yeah, yeah, a lot, it is a lot. I did it the once. I told my friend at work that is a young man's game right there. And I am not a young man anymore.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, and it was just different last time. Plus also for me, because my kids were teenagers. My sister-in-law lived in South Jersey at the time and now she lives in Arizona. So you know it was go up to her house the night before, spend the night, get up in the morning, get the train, and that was kind of like best case scenario of how to do the day. And you know she's not there anymore and it just yeah. My kids are grown, they're like I don't, I don't.
Speaker 2I don't want to be around a bunch of drunk people. I don't want to be in a crowd. I don't want to get pushed around. If I were to go, it would be down at the stadium in out boom buying, gone right out by 12 and I bet even that's not as simple as you? Oh, I know, it's not, I'm just. I have no doubt that because you're absolutely correct. That would not as simple as you think it is.
Speaker 1Oh, I know it's not. I have no doubt that it. You're absolutely correct.
Speaker 2That would be the best way to do it, because I heard yesterday, today or yesterday they announced that the parking lots will not be open at the stadium so yeah that doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 1No, it doesn't.
Speaker 2I know why, because it was going to take too much police presence in the parking lot that they needed elsewhere. So so I was like, well, fuck, I know why. Because it was going to take too much police presence in the parking lot that they needed elsewhere. So so I was like, well, all right, well, that makes sense, fuck that shit.
Speaker 2There goes that idea yeah, plus, I didn't get, I didn't take off, and uh, I'm around the second quarter, my, uh, my postmaster text leave denied. So I said, well, and my postmaster text leave denied. I said well, I guess I'm going to call out Nice. But yeah, what else did you do this?
Speaker 1week. Well, today we had a snow day, because it snowed all night last night. Well, I should say the state of Delaware employees had a snow day not the post office.
Speaker 1No, not the post office, um. So we started watching the diddy documentary on hbo and discovery plus and I think the id channel run it. Oh, he's a piece of shit. Yeah, I mean it's awful. It's really hard to watch, um, but in the same context it's. It's a good thing because you can see the trauma in these people. Like, these are not paid actors, these are people who have been through something and the fact that they can now come out and share their story and be validated and let the world know what happened to them is pretty powerful. Right, I mean, he was awful and it's another one of those cases they tell you about his childhood. I mean he was awful and it's another one of those cases they tell you about his childhood. His dad was shot when he was 33 because he was involved in I almost want to say mafia type stuff. I can't remember that part, but anyway. So, raised by a single mom in Harlem, so she raised him to be tough because she knew being soft there would he'd never make it.
Speaker 2Right.
Speaker 1But again, as I say, you know your upbringing. It's a reason, not an excuse.
Speaker 2Not an excuse.
Speaker 1So he didn't have to grow up to be an awful person, but he was just so power hungry and just so like get to them before they get to you. That's basically his mom was like don't come home telling me you got hit. Like you better have hit him back twice as hard. If somebody takes something from you, you take more than that from them, and that's what he was taught growing up. So it was a perfect storm of and he was extremely talented. I mean, you can't deny that, whether you like his music or not, he built a billion dollar lifestyle.
Speaker 1He sure did so he knew something he was doing, but he sure did not treat people nice ever like ever I mean most of the time when you're at that level. You haven't treated people very nice anyway, yeah, and that that sucks because it doesn't need to be that way.
Speaker 2Nice doesn't get paid. It should, though I am proof in the pudding that that is not true. Nice does not. I shouldn't say that I'm not very nice, but good-hearted, I suppose.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Reflections on Past Celebrity Relationships
Speaker 2Usually, yeah, doesn't win any races. That is true For some reason. Yeah, I'm going to. Before we get into it, I'm just going to remind everyone, while you're paying attention if you actually are paying attention that you can like, share, rate and review. You know, it's the little stars there. It it makes a difference. It moves people up, moves people down, whatever. You should just check it out on your app, especially if you use apple. It's very important on apple. It is from what I've been told by the. Yeah, so do that right now please do it now, please.
Speaker 1She said she wasn't nice. I'm not, she actually is super nice I'm not she likes to play like she's tough. She's only mean to people who deserve it everybody deserves fair enough. Uh, yeah, so this week, uh, this episode will drop on friday, february 14th. What is that day? Um, the day of love, if I can just start this with. Um, first of all, saint valentine's day is not a hallmark holiday no, we found yeah because it started in like 14-something, so Hallmark was not a thing then.
Speaker 2As far as I know, it wasn't.
Speaker 1Maybe who knows? But also I know a lot of people hate on Valentine's Day and that's fine, you can have your opinion, I hate on. Valentine's Day. My opinion is what is so wrong with celebrating a day of love?
Speaker 2Because, it should be every day.
Speaker 1You're the worst.
Speaker 2I know, because I just think it's stupid. For one day, you should just be nice to your significant other every day. Every day should be Halloween.
Speaker 1Yes, that's absolutely true, but it extends past your significant other, like your kids galentine's day that's the dumbest fucking thing I've ever.
Speaker 2Galentine's day, like let's what? Let's just make the holiday even stupider all right, cranky pants, let's move on.
Speaker 1So, since this will be dropping on valentine's day, I decided, uh, that we're gonna fuck around and find out about Gen X celebrity couples, uh-oh, yeah. So some of these I remembered, some I did not, yeah, it was just. There was a lot I was going through like, wow, oh yeah, oh yeah, okay. So the first one we're going to start with is Brad Pitt and Gwyneth Paltrow. Do you remember when they dated?
Speaker 2I did. Do you remember their matching haircuts? I don't remember the matching haircut, though.
Speaker 1I didn't. But then I saw the picture and then I remembered and yeah so, anyone, any way, who can ever forget the infamous matching haircuts Me? Who can ever forget the infamous matching haircuts Me? The painfully attractive pair first began dating while filming Seven and quickly became the golden couple of the 90s.
Speaker 2What's in the box?
Speaker 1Do you think Brad Pitt's handsome?
Speaker 2No.
Speaker 1Okay, do you think Gwyneth Paltrow's pretty?
Speaker 2No.
Speaker 1Oh, all right, I am the opposite on both of those. Okay, agree to disagree. Yeah, that right, I am the opposite on both of those. Okay, agree to disagree. Yeah, that's what we usually do. So, though they were engaged and once sported identical looks, their romance came to an end in 1997, with the Goop founder later taking blame for its demise during an interview with Howard Stern.
Speaker 2Oh, hold on, Let me just first say yeah, okay, so back to Brad Pitt. Okay, I'm not a fan of Brad. I do like Seven mostly.
Speaker 1Are you on Angelina's side?
Speaker 2No, okay, I don't care about either one of them. Oh, okay, no, I'm not. I dislike Angelina even more because of the whole Jennifer Aniston thing.
Speaker 1Yes, exactly, I digress, right, I digress.
Speaker 2Right? No, so I have mixed feelings about Brad Pitt. I don't hate Brad Pitt as much as I hate Tom Cruise, correct, but I don't particularly care for him. But then I remember the movies that I like that he's in, and there's one movie in particular that I think is a phenomenal performance by him and I feel like he should have gotten probably more. Maybe not an award for it, but like.
Speaker 1I have so many of his movies running through my head and I'm not sure which one you're going to say it's with Bruce Willis. Is that seven? No 12 Monkeys, monkeys okay, I probably saw that it's set in philadelphia. Yeah, I'm sure I saw it. If I did, I saw it once it's.
Speaker 2It wasn't a very popular movie but it is a really really good movie. Um, most I like bruce willis, so, yeah, me too, um, and I like anything set in philadelphia, so, but it is he plays um mentally ill and he does this thing with his eye through the whole movie. That I just don't understand. How he does it and it's it was like a 90s movie, so, or early 2000s maybe. So it's not cgi, it's, it's definitely him, and just the way he is like he's very like, I mean it's very brad pitt, but it's, it's, it's a great, it's, it is a good movie. So I I come and go with brad pitt, of course I love seven like there's no better movie on earth than I took a world religion class in college and it was a super fun class.
Speaker 1It was just on weekends, but he had us watch seven years in tibet. That was the first time I'd seen that. That's also a very good movie. I haven't seen that either that was a good one, um, and then my all-time favorite is going to be oceans 11 I do like oceans 11 I love.
Speaker 2That's why I say I come and go with him Like I. Just I can't decide how I feel about him.
Speaker 1I think yeah, he and Clooney in that movie were just perfect.
Speaker 2And he did a lot in Katrina for Katrina.
Speaker 1Are you going to rethink your Brad Pitt stance? No, okay good, you're too old for it to be changing your mind, like, like that, I don't change my mind. Back to Gwyneth Paltrow. She told Howard Stern in an interview that she was a kid. She was 22 when they met. It's taking me until 40 to get my head out of my ass. You can't make that decision when you're 22 years old. You know, I think I was a kid and I wasn't ready and he was too good for me, whatever, it just didn't work out.
Speaker 1You don't have to be so dramatic.
Speaker 2I know it's Hollywood. They very rarely work out.
Speaker 1Okay, so next we have Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears.
Speaker 2This was a horrible idea just all the way around.
Speaker 1The pictures just don't even look like a good thing back then. They didn't look happy. So Justin Timberlake was a breakout star of the biggest boy band in the world. She was the most famous pop star in the world. If pop music were prom, Britney and Justin were its ultimate king and queen From the infamous matching denim outfits, which is what I always picture when I think of the two of them to the adorable nicknames Pinky and Stinky, which I don't remember, that.
Speaker 2No.
Speaker 1The young couple's four year relationship, which I don't think I knew it was that long either. No 1998 to 2002 and dramatic breakup has helped define both of their careers. It's legacy immortalized forever. With cry me a river, timberlake's hit song about the devastating split, the music video featured a Brittany lookalike and seemingly confirmed the cheating rumors. I was kind of in denial. Spring Spears would later say, seeing the video for the first time during an interview with Diane Sawyer, who also asked if the infidelity allegations were true. I'm not technically saying he.
Speaker 2You didn't finish that sentence.
Speaker 1I didn't yep. So, who knows, I'm going to say that. She said it without saying it, or you can just cut all that out. This one is hidden here, special for you I saw, I noticed. Johnny and Winona this one.
Speaker 2I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care is it too late for them? Yeah, is it?
Speaker 1yeah, it is, and it isn't because I know she's come out with his whole trial with that nut job um she did back him, oh yeah, and she stood she said there was absolutely no way, and that's true and so did his ex-wife.
Speaker 2So I think I think it would not hurt my feelings if they were to ever, but I think he has gone, probably too far into a hole well, she's not the most stable thing.
Speaker 1She's not, and I think that's the problem I think he's too far in toxic for each other.
Speaker 2I think that they are one of those couples that you remember that will smith movie um that he was the uh superhero. Oh, hitch or not hitch. What the hell was the name of that movie?
Speaker 1hutch no it wasn't hutch anyway, I know what you're talking, yeah and him, and that girl could never be together because, it was they, they would restore.
Speaker 2I really think that that would be johnny and wanona.
Speaker 1I think they just and hopefully they're best friends to this day.
Speaker 2I do believe they are and I I do think that they are just the cutest. I mean, they're, they are, they are. If you are goth, they are your dream goth relationship yes, that is true.
Celebrity Relationships Reflecting on the Past
Speaker 1So winona forever. That was the tattoo depp got during his whirlwind romance with rider 18, with the young pair quickly becoming the it couple after meeting at the Great Balls of Fire premiere in 1989 and going on to star in Edward Scissorhands together, Depp would later tell there's been nothing in my 27 years. That's comparable to the feeling I have for Winona. Their romance would play out until 1993 when they ended their engagement and Depp infamously changed his tattoo to read why no Forever. Do you remember that? I do. Ryder later called her split from Depp her first major heartbreak telling Ellen in 2009,. I think it was really ironic because everybody else just thought I had everything in the world. Heartbreak telling Ellen in 2009,. I think it was really ironic because, like everybody else, just thought I had everything in the world. You know, I had no reason to be depressed. Everything was sort of at its peak, but inside I was completely lost.
Speaker 2I mean for number one, she was so young, so young. I mean yeah, and he's just so unstable.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2It's just not a no, but I think maybe one day in goth heaven they rule over the entire land.
Speaker 1And you'll be one of their minions.
Speaker 2Look, I will follow Johnny Depp to the ends of the earth, always, have, always will. I don't care. I like a bad boy, apparently, and he is the baddest of all the bad boys, and I don't even he. I don't care how old he looks, or he is the most perfect human being ever put on this planet. You can fight me to the death on that one. I don't care, johnny Depp is the most perfect, he's just perfect.
Speaker 1Anyway, our next one is Robert. Downey Jr and Sarah Jessica Parker.
Speaker 2Only Tim Burton likes him more than me.
Speaker 1Before. The Sex and the City star married Matthew Broderick in 1997 and the Avengers frontman married wife and producer partner Susan in 2005,. The A-listers were in a tumultuous seven-year relationship from 1984 to 1991, which was defined by his substance abuse issues. I don't remember them being together. When I saw the picture I remembered that. But to say they had a seven-year relationship, like definitely, although in 84, I remembered that, but to say they had a seven-year relationship like definitely, although in 84, I was 11.
Speaker 1Yeah, so maybe it was a big deal before I was old enough to realize.
Speaker 2You know what's a good movie with her? Girls just want to have fun. Her and Helen Hunt Mm-hmm, I love.
Speaker 1Helen Hunt.
Speaker 2I love Helen Hunt and I love that movie. Mm-hmm, I love Helen Hunt. I love Helen Hunt and I love that movie, because we should seriously do an episode about those dance shows from the 80s. I almost got to go to one because they film them in Philadelphia and there was one right by my aunt's house very cool Dance Party USA let's see.
Speaker 1So I was so selfish, I like to drink. I had a drug problem and that didn't jibe with sarah jessica, because it is the furthest thing from what she is. Robert downey jr, who got sober in 2002, later told parade. She provided me a home and understanding. She tried to help me. She is a force of nature, so it was very nice.
Speaker 2But didn't her and Matthew Broderick kill somebody.
Speaker 1No, that was him and Jennifer Gray. Oh, jennifer, yep, they dated for a little bit too. I think that was one I didn't put in here, but I did see it. So it's not like I remember that off the top of my head, but yes, I should have just left that and sounded smart.
Speaker 2But anyway, I'm looking back not to put them in here because, they murdered someone accidentally yeah, it was a car accident.
Speaker 1The two of them were in the front seat and there were passengers in the back seat, and the passengers in the back seat died and it was found to be Matthew Broderick's fault. Yes, see, I didn't put it in here, but it's a good thing I read it. Looking back on their romance, sarah Jessica Parker told people that while she had to find the courage to walk away, she also doesn't regret any of it. I don't resent the time spent. It seems to me like Robert Downey Jr has always been a pretty solid guy. He just had an addiction issue, so it sounds like you know a lot of people stuck by his side because they must have known who he was on the inside not just who he was.
Speaker 1as an addict, I like Robert Downey Jr. Yeah, I love him.
Speaker 2Yeah, I think he's great the pickup artist with Molly Ringwald, mm-hmm. Molly.
Speaker 1All right. So pop icon Madonna and Oscar winner Sean Penn wed during a top secret ceremony in Malibu, california, in 1985. The couple earned the moniker the Poison Pens because of their volatile relationship, which included allegations of abuse that both parties have denied. While they were together, the couple made the box office flop shanghai surprise in 1986 and madonna dedicated her album from that same year, true blue, to her. Then hubby, I actually have a blue vinyl 45 oh wow of true blue that I bought when it came out I had her book in french.
Speaker 2Oh fancy, I don't know where it is now.
Speaker 1It's probably worth a lot of money probably three years later she filed for divorce. But in her 1991 film, madonna, truth or dare, when asked the identity of her, the love of her life, the singer responded my whole sean, my whole heart, my whole love. Probably it was sean. In 2000 madonna married guy rie, who happens to be my favorite movie producer, and in 1996, penn married Robin Wright Jedi. I always think of the Princess Bride when I see her.
Speaker 2It's funny because when any of those polls it's like who is the biggest villain in all of the movies, she is always number one, with Jenny. And I'm like you're damn right, she was horrible yep, but both of those couples are now divorced oh really yes, so this was one I didn't remember, but since we had talked recently, I know.
Speaker 1When I saw that I was like hold up what tom cruise met share at sean penn and and Madonna's wedding in 1985. At the time the risky business star was 22 years old, 16 years younger than the Moonstruck actress. She has always liked them young.
Speaker 2She does.
Speaker 1Sparks didn't really fly until the two reunited at the White House event benefiting people with dyslexia, which both Cruz and Cher battle with.
Speaker 2So yeah, that was was that's crazy.
Speaker 1I can't even picture that in my head. Like that doesn't make any sense, do you?
Speaker 2think maybe scientology is the reason they are not. I can't imagine that share would, yeah, definitely vibe with the scientology. Hell, no nonsense, I don't know She'd be like fuck you.
Speaker 1In 2013, Cher told Andy Cohen on Bravo's Watch what Happens Live she was crazy for Cruz for a little minute. He is a little guy and she called him one of her top five best lovers.
Speaker 2It's not what I've heard about Tom Cruise.
Speaker 1It's not what they say on the corner. Not what they say. She was actually with Cruise when she helped come up with the barely there look she wore in 1988 when she took home the Academy Award for Best Actress in Moonstruck, and we all remember that outfit With the feathers right.
Speaker 1Yeah, the black bodysuit yeah, barely there. This one I remembered. Yes, like all of Michael Jackson's personal relationships, his connection to Brooke Shields wasn't conventional. The two met at the 1981 Oscars and though he seemed very into her, it was more of a friendship in Shields' eyes. In 2009, she revealed to Rolling Stone that the King of Pop proposed to her on multiple occasions. I would say you have me for the rest of your life. You don't need to marry me. I'm going to go on and do my own life and have my own marriage and my own kids, and you'll always have me, shields said. I think it made him relax. He didn't want to lose things that meant something to him.
Speaker 2That really kind of gets in his head a little bit. I have a lot of feelings about Michael Jackson.
Speaker 1I do too, and I don't know how to feel about him at the same time.
Speaker 2Yes, my feelings of Michael Jackson are probably not very politically correct of me. So I just think look, if you fucking sent your kid to spend the weekend with michael jackson after all of those allegations, you pimped your fucking kid. Plain, andain and simple. Yes, whether you believe it or not. And then you want to sue. No, you pimped your, you sold your child, you did.
Speaker 1Exactly. But, I also feel like, see, I don't know what happened.
Speaker 2So I'm just basing this on my opinion.
Speaker 1But he was robbed of his childhood and he was very childlike as an adult with the amusement park at his house and the zoo and all those things and I wonder if him having those kids sleep in the bed was really just a childlike sleepover type thing for him.
Speaker 2And you know, I'll never know.
Speaker 1None of us will ever know. We don't know.
Speaker 2But the thing of it is is that maybe it was innocent, maybe it wasn't, I don't know.
Celebrity Love Affairs and Scandals
Speaker 1But simply, if you knew, that there were, if you even thought there was a chance.
Speaker 2If there were allegations and you simply thought I'm going to let my kids stay here? You just wouldn't do it, unless your money is more important to you. Right, and I'm sorry, but that's how I feel about it Right.
Speaker 1It would be like letting your 15-year-old daughter go out with R Kelly. Yeah.
Speaker 2And then being surprised but at least we know, yeah. And then I want to turn around and sue them Right. Well, you sold your kid. Yeah, I want to turn around and sue him. Well, you kind of you sold your kid?
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, I agree with that. I agree that the parents were in the wrong, but I also wonder the extent of what his abuse. Was he a pedophile or was he just? Yeah? So I don't know if he's a pedophile or if he was just stuck in a state of being a 10-year-old, or Perpetually? Yeah. So who knows? But he had a tortured life anyway. But again, reasons not excuses. Yeah, so on to the next one. Oh, I forgot to mention too. Most of this information was found on E Online today, sorry. According to page six, kim Basinger was so crazy for Prince. Did you remember this one?
Speaker 2I do remember this, yes.
Speaker 1I did not In 1989 that she relocated to his hometown of Minneapolis to be with him. Rumor has it, the two made an album titled Hollywood Affair that was never released.
Speaker 2I can imagine it wasn't released. I can't imagine it's anything worth hearing. Well, I wouldn't hear anything from Prince, but With Kim Basinger.
Speaker 1I don't imagine it wasn't released. I can't imagine it's anything worth hearing. Well, I wouldn't hear anything from Prince, but With Kim Basin I don't know, yeah, you're right.
Speaker 1In 2015, Basinger discussed her relationship with Prince with the Daily Beast. I really don't have boundaries, so I enjoyed that time of my life. She said it was a really special moment in time and I have great memories memories and I don't put a lot of restrictions on myself. Let's just put it that way If there's someone I connect with, we'll go on these rides together. I didn't really get like, was she saying, I dated black guys.
Speaker 2No, I think it was probably more of an open situation.
Speaker 1Yeah, I don't think Prince was ever monogamous, or ever pretended to be monogamous.
Speaker 2It was probably more of an open situation.
Speaker 1Yeah, I don't think Prince was ever monogamous or ever pretended to be monogamous.
Speaker 2I don't think Prince turned down sleeping with anybody.
Speaker 1I didn't At any point for any reason. And nobody turned him down. No, I don't, I know I wouldn't have, but anyway I would have made him leave his seals on, though, learning about Nicole's kinks today.
Speaker 2No kink shaming kids.
Speaker 1Speaking of Arsenio Hall, his birthday was today.
Speaker 2Yesterday or yesterday?
Speaker 1Yeah, I think he turned like 78 or something crazy. Like something weird Don't say that again. Really weird. So anyway, he met Paula Abdul, which I do remember this one, I do remember that who was working as a choreographer on the set of the 1988 movie coming to america, classic. The two dated from 1988 to 1989 and he was not has nothing but praise for his famous ex in 2009, the same year, rumors circulated the two might be rekindling their romance. Hall told People the most fun I've ever had in any phase of my life was with a woman named Paula. All right, I didn't say that exactly word for word, but you got the gist. I did the wine's kicking in. Oh, by the way, I don't think I mentioned last week. I survived dry Januaryuary either, and I'm pretty proud of me. She did pat on the back, I did it. Good job, but yeah, now I'm back to boozing, so yeah that's why I'm screwed up, she's learning a word we were together because we wanted to be.
Speaker 1Despite their apparent compatibility, those crazy kids couldn't make it work and the former lakers girl cozied up with Full House's John Stamos before marrying Estevez in 1992. I remember her with Estevez. I don't think I remember. John Stamos. Hall, meanwhile, has never been married, though they were both using drugs and alcohol at the same time. Drew Barrymore and Corey Feldman met on the set of an after-school special, ironically titled 15 and Getting Straight, in 1989.
Speaker 2So can we just go on a tangent about poor little Corey Feldman? He has completely gone off the deep end.
Speaker 1Is he still alive?
Speaker 2Yes, oh, I have I. He has a band and he thinks he has the greatest band. Like it's, just it's. I mean, it is hard to watch. You're so secondhand embarrassed for Corey that you're just like Corey, please just sit, Stop it, Just stop. I mean, first of all, he's still doing the Michael Jackson dancing. Wow, you are 50 some years old, Corey. Let it go, yeah.
Speaker 1It was cute when you were 10.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's not anymore no. He still wears like a whole leather. I mean, he's got the pony. You Google it sometime and you will.
Speaker 1I don't think I want to.
Speaker 2It's awful. It is awful.
Speaker 1It is awful. You know what's awful?
Speaker 2Is they were filming a show called 15 and getting straight and they picked the two biggest child drug addicts.
Speaker 1Yeah, in hollywood well, I mean they could play it. They would play a convincing drunken drug addict wouldn't they? That is true, but not the role models that you're looking for in that kind of anyway, those after-school specials were dumb anyway. The young lovers even attended the 1988 Oscars together, but they split up after nine months of dating In Feldman's 2013 memoir Choreography.
Speaker 2Oh God, I mean say I'm telling you Corey move on, bless his heart yeah.
Speaker 1He said the relationship ended because he was heavily into drugs and she was trying to stay sober.
Speaker 2I mean that makes sense. I think Corey might still be on drugs.
Speaker 1Drew had been an addict since she was like four.
Speaker 2I know.
Speaker 1That's insane. Yeah, though Feldman is no longer in the public eye, although apparently he has a band he is in a band. Barrymore has had a number of high profile romances with actors like Ed Norton, Luke Wilson and Justin Long. She has two daughters with ex-husband Will Kopelman, Rocky Star. I loved this relationship.
Speaker 2I wanted them to be together forever. This one's a great, I think.
Speaker 1Her and I share a birthday oh nice Rocky star Sylvester Stallone became smitten with then 22 year old Danish actress Bridget Nielsen shortly after she made her feature film debut in Red Sonja in 1985. According to People, it was Nielsen who made the first move, sending Stallone a provocative photo asking to meet him while they were both staying at the same hotel in New York City okay, so can we just talk about also how much it would go into making and sending a provocative photo in the 80s it's not like you had a phone that you could just shoot a selfie and then somebody take the picture for you and you would have, unless she had, like somebody.
Speaker 2did somebody take the picture for you, unless she had, like somebody had to take the picture?
Speaker 1But then did she have to go get it developed? Yes, or was it Polaroid?
Speaker 2Oh, maybe it was Polaroid, but still, somebody's got to take the Polaroid.
Speaker 1They don't have a timer or anything? No, they don't.
Speaker 2And you're, I mean then. Then you have to put it in an envelope, lick the envelope, buy a stamp, put the stamp on it, Either carry it down to your mailbox.
Speaker 1Don't forget to write the address you got to find Sylvester Stallone's address?
Speaker 2Yes, then you have to put it in the mailbox or take it to the post office, because if she'd only done one movie at that time, she's not got an entourage of people that will do.
Speaker 1Do you suppose she sprayed perfume on that? You know she did and you know she kissed the back of the envelope with red lipstick.
Speaker 2You know she did Of course she did.
Speaker 1She was a stunningly beautiful woman.
Speaker 2She was, but I hated her in Rocky I hated her.
Speaker 1Well, you're supposed to hate her, I hated her. They got married in December of 1985, only 10 months after Stiller's divorce from his first wife was finalized. The marriage only lasted 19 months and tabloids swarmed the story with rumors of cheating and scheming. Though things got ugly, nielsen reunited with her ex while shooting 2018's Creed II, stepping back into her role as Ludmilla Drago from Rocky IV. But all was well between her and Stallone. We buried the hatchet a long time ago, nielsen told USA Today when we were together. We are two professionals and we keep it that way.
Speaker 2I mean, first of all, that was 127 years ago For real.
Speaker 1That would be like me being upset with a boyfriend I had in high school. Yeah, get over it. Yeah, oh, I guess I did put this one in there. Oh, look at that. Oh, look at me. Okay, well, let's just rehash this real quick. Jennifer Grey and Matthew Brodrick may have played siblings in the 80s classic Ferris Bueller's Day Off, one of my favorite movies of all time.
Speaker 2I'm not going to say my opinion because I already get hassled enough for my unpopular opinions.
Speaker 1There was one summer I want to say it was between my let's see when did that? It doesn't say when it came out. I want to say it was the year, the summer between my sophomore year and my junior year. I'd wake up every morning to a long list of chores I had to get done. But before I would do those because I always saved it till the last minute and rushed around the house to get it done. I watched Ferris Bueller's.
Speaker 2Day Off every single day that summer. I just love that movie. I do not. I just love that movie. I do not. I know it looks like such a fun day off. It does not, it does.
Speaker 1It does not. You know what's a fun day off Watching the Price is Right, and then the stories, yeah, yeah, except I, yeah, I just can't watch the Price is Right now because, well, that's not Bob, it's not Bob. And I just can't watch surprises right now because it's not Bob, and I just feel so bad for Drew and we just watched the documentary again, a documentary about his fiance that got murdered or Amy, something was her name and he's just not been the same since, and it's so sad it breaks my heart.
Speaker 1so, on Ferris Bueller's Day Off, their feelings developed for each other. It was anything but familial, if you know what I'm saying. The couple kept their romance a secret until a tragic event thrust them into the spotlight. I wonder what that was. Vent thrust them into the spotlight. I wonder what that was. During a vacation in Ireland in 1987, gray and Broderick were involved in a head-on collision that left the passengers of the other car dead. I'm sorry it was the other car, not their car. Dirty Dancing was released days later and Jennifer suffered from serious survivor's guilt. I became America's sweetheart within five days of the accident. She told San Francisco Chronicle in 2010. The juxtaposition of that deep sorrow.
Speaker 1My husband told me I really should practice the words. He's like you sound so dumb, especially the names. He's like it's so insulting. I'm like. I know the deep sorrow and survivor's guilt. And then being celebrated as the new big thing just didn't jibe. It didn't feel good to be the toast of the town. The accident was eventually deemed Broderick's fault and the couple split in 1988. So, yeah, that would have been really hard. Five days prior, you killed two people in a car accident. Yeah, and then that's out there.
Speaker 2Yeah, because Dirty Dancing that was huge and that movie is problematic now.
Speaker 1Well, yeah, because she was a kid.
Speaker 2A kid. Patrick Swayze was like 40. Not a kid. The whole movie was problematic. It was, it was, but Nobody puts baby in a corner.
Speaker 1That's right. Miami Vice star Don Johnson and Oscar nominated actress Melanie Griffith were the Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor of their time. They sure were, if you're old enough to know who those people are I am. I am too, but when the two first met she was just 14 and he was 23.
Speaker 2Problematic also.
Speaker 1Yikes. They moved in together before Griffith could drive and married in 1976, just a few months after her 18th birthday. They divorced seven months later.
Speaker 2Imagine that Weird.
Speaker 1So he stole her entire teenage years when she should have been out with fun boys, and then got bored with her seven months after he married her.
Speaker 2Okay.
Celebrity Romances and Film Memories
Speaker 1Anyway, the couple remarried in 1989 and had one daughter, dakota Johnson, who I do not like. I don't know why, but there's something about that woman Of Fifty Sh shades of gray fame. In 2018, griffith told in style it was sort of a natural karmic thing for us to get back together and have dakota. She was meant to come into the world, if you think about it. After divorcing johnson for a second time in 1996, griffith moved in with antonioas. I love Antonio Banderas so much, and when my kids were little, there was this movie, spy Kids, and he was the dad in it, and it is such a good movie and I keep trying to find it on TV so I can watch it again.
Speaker 2Okay, but did you see him in the Super Bowl ad? Yes, he does not look good. I was like whoa. Well, he is very, very, very old. Okay, so is Harrison Ford.
Speaker 1Oh, he's, very handsome.
Speaker 2I mean, Harrison Ford is 80 times more handsome now than he was when he was young. Yes, that man has gotten better looking the older he has gotten, and you know he's a helicopter pilot right, so he rescues people all the time in Montana or wherever.
Speaker 1Can you?
Speaker 2imagine being rescued by fucking Indiana Jones rolling up on you.
Speaker 1That would be amazing.
Speaker 2I'm sure I've said that before, but I just we need to go get lost there, wherever he does, that I know.
Speaker 1Before he dies, be like save me Harrison, save me Indy. So Griffith and Antonio Banderas were married for 18 years before filing for divorce in 2014. I was very sad when they got divorced. I liked them together. I was never a huge Melanie Griffith fan, although she did do some good stuff like Working.
Speaker 2Girl. Yeah, I wasn't a fan of hers.
Speaker 1Yeah, she was, but just the two of them together, like the bleach blonde bombshell, and the Latin lover. Yeah, they just went good together. As for Johnson, he continued to have scandalous relationships. He was briefly engaged to Jodi Lynn O'Keefe, who played his daughter on the TV show Nash Bridges in the mid-90s. I wonder if she was also a child when he was dating her. Then, in 1999, he married nursery school teacher Kelly Fleger. She was 30 and he was 50 at the time.
Speaker 2I mean, that's fine.
Speaker 1Yeah, a 30-year-old can make that decision.
Speaker 2Yeah, so you know I have to watch Miami Vice like probably once a week.
Speaker 1That just sounds so insane.
Speaker 2It is really insane, especially the episode where they play in the air tonight Really insane, especially the episode where they play In the Air tonight.
Speaker 1I should know exactly which episode it is because and I should know exactly what Porsche they drive. Oh, that's where the Porsche love comes from too.
Speaker 2Or maybe it's a Ferrari, I don't know, but I do know, no, I do know it is a 928. No, no, no, no, that was in Risky Business. The 928 was in Risky Business and it was brown, look at you. But yeah, so every time we specifically have to watch that episode and then I have to hear I'd say, look, watch this part, this part, right here, I'm like, I know, for the 987th time I am aware you're such a good wife.
Speaker 2I don't, I just I stare at the TV, like you know, cause when you're a cook for 25 years of real life, you can tune servers out and he is a server slash bartender so I can. I can tune a server out with no problem.
Speaker 1I say that same thing about being a mother. You learn to tune the kids out. You don't want to be screaming at them when they're making noise.
Speaker 2They're having fun and playing, so you just tune them out. Tune them out.
Speaker 1So yeah, I'm very, very good at that now. A little too good sometimes. Yeah, it may be difficult to uncover a love story more 80s than tommy lee and heather locklear? Yeah, all right, tommy lee is my guilty pleasure. I think he is just the sexiest thing. And have you ever watched um, what's the like movie? But it's kind of documentary, but it's a movie of them on tour.
Speaker 2I don't know.
Speaker 1Shoot what's it called.
Speaker 2I don't know.
Speaker 1All right, I'm going to keep talking.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1And look it up, because it's really excellent and it tells the backstories of the guys, um, and he really is a good guy, like he grew up with really cool parents, do you know?
Speaker 2who I found out was actually was a really good guy that I just would never have expected. What's his name from Kiss, even though he was on the Apprentice, so I could live without that. But he didn't drink, he didn't do drugs, nothing.
Speaker 1Simmons, gene Simmons, have you ever seen?
Speaker 2Simmons, gene Simmons, have you ever seen the picture of him and his mom? First, she's like two and a half feet tall and he's like 18 feet tall.
Speaker 1Yes, so the movie's called the Dirt. It came out in 2019. It's a musical comedy and, yeah, it's obviously it's actors playing the Motley Crue guys, but it really shows the rock star lifestyle and it's a really fun movie to watch if you haven't seen it.
Speaker 2So, according to People, the Dynasty actress met the Motley Crue drummer backstage at an REO Speedwagon concert. That is the most 80s sentence I believe there has ever been in the history of sentences.
Speaker 1I squeezed it all in there. You sure did. People Magazine Dynasty.
Speaker 2That sentence had everything.
Speaker 1Everything. It's got everything. Lee began bombarding Locklear's manager with phone calls and she eventually caved. Three months later, after their first date, lee proposed. The two wed in 1986 in front of a crowd of 500. But lee's wild ways and infidelity led to their divorce in 1993. So yes, but if you're marrying a rock star, you have to know, that you have to know that's going to happen, unless it's alice cooper.
Speaker 2Yeah, he's what one of a million. I mean, he's probably like the exception.
Speaker 1Yeah, and Tommy Lee was particularly infamous for both his package and the amount of girls he was with. Locklear married Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora in 1994.
Speaker 2Are they still together?
Speaker 1I want to say no, because she's a mess now Is she yeah, huh, yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2You know, it's funny because when I read that to Tommy Lee and Heather Locke Lear I was like, oh yeah, but I think I more remember her with Richie Sambora, for whatever reason.
Speaker 1But it doesn't say anything about them divorcing either. So I don't know. But Lee married Baywatch bombshell Pamela Anderson in 1995, just four days after meeting her, and I did love Tommy and Pamela together too. That was my list of couples that really stuck out to me from our time. Is there anyone I have?
Speaker 2one, okay, my favorite couple, okay, other than, of course, johnny and Winona.
Speaker 1Right yeah, my second favorite couple.
Speaker 2Bruce will listen to me more. Yeah, I can't believe I forgot that one, because I mean, first of all, they have probably the most grown-up relationship of anybody ever.
Speaker 1Yeah, the two of them is the gift that keeps on giving.
Speaker 2They really are Because when they got divorced, they built houses next to each other To raise the kids To raise the kids and when she married Ashton Kutcher he was over there all the time, like they did stuff together all the time. It seems to me they were the most emotionally mature. I mean, obviously I don't know what happened, I don't really care why they broke up or whatever. People just do that, but I just think it's just so emotionally grown up.
Speaker 1Yes, and I saw her on something I was watching recently and she has a movie out which I've always really liked, demi Moore. She has been kind of well, she said. When she was younger she was told that she would be a popcorn actress, which I don't know what. I'm assuming it's like a Pop-Tart musician. I'm going to say it's in the same thing. So she said it was part of her Golden Globe speech that she so. Then she was like, okay, well, the awards just aren't meant for me, then I'm just going to make these movies. I never saw GI Jane, but I love GI Jane, I love GI Jane did you ever see the movie Strip Tease?
Speaker 1yes, she was excellent in that and I was working as a bartender in a movie theater at the time, so I've seen that movie 50,000 times. But she really was amazing in that movie and in Ghost, of course I think she was. I just love Patrick Swayze anyway. But she's in this new movie called substance, um, and I didn't really understand the premise of it, but I did know that she got nominated for an oscar. Have you seen it? I haven't, so I get. It's a horror movie actually, which I didn't realize, and it is funny that Demi Moore is getting her first Oscar nomination for a horror movie. So she is a fitness instructor, everything's about her looks, and she gets fired because she's getting too old and too old looking.
Speaker 1So there is a substance that she can inject and I guess it splits her personality, like there's a young, pretty version of her and then like a monster version of her. The way I had always seen it, I thought she became like an addict because she got older or addicted to plastic surgery or something. But I don't think that's what it is. I think she's like yeah, so now I'm really interested in seeing it, but she was talking about bruce willis and it's just so devastating what's happening to him.
Speaker 1I know my heart cannot take it, I know. But the circle of support that he has around him is Because I think he's moved back in with her, he has and his wife yes, and they have been married for 15, 20 years something. And Demi was talking about, about. She said I love our modern family. Like there's no sort of any ill will or or anything. She's like we all just love each other and we take care of each other, and that's just what we do that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2Like they're the most like, I just can't, especially for being in hollywood you know, it's, they're, they're all you always hear about how much, how fake. You know this relationship was set because of this and you know these two people were pushed together because of this. And you know and it's pretty obvious when, like the Justin and Brittany that's obviously done for a reason Was orchestrated and and a lot of them are. Yes, you know, there are very few of course hanks and rita wilson.
Speaker 2You know they're not, but you know there's just you can. You can always see it coming from like a mile and a half away.
Speaker 1You're like yeah, and it's actually kind of similar to um, your favorite, johnny and you know, they, they tried to be together. They weren't meant to be together that way, yeah, but they were definitely meant to be in each other's lives forever. So they had to find their dynamic.
Speaker 2It's just crazy, you know it's so sad. I love Bruce Willis so much and it's just, it's so unfair, it really is, and you know, mm-hmm, that's, I guess, the nature of the beast.
Speaker 1And I guess I forgot one of the most popular music videos of all time as well, would be Christie Brinkley and Billy Joel.
Speaker 2Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley.
Speaker 1My God, when I was a child, Christie Brinkley walking up in that garage in that outfit, with those heels and that hat, I was in love instantly with her.
Speaker 2So you all don't know my godmother and her husband, but Nicole knows my godmother and her husband. And when. So they're Italian in Philadelphia and my dad used to say that video was them.
Speaker 1He's exactly right. He is a million percent right.
Fond Memories of Hollywood Romances
Speaker 2Because her husband? He owned a junkyard in Philadelphia, if that tells you anything about who he is. Junkyard in philadelphia if that tells you anything about who he is. And my aunt it's so funny because my aunt is my mom's best friend right and she is super fancy like I have never, so fancy. I mean that woman matches like everything matches never a hair out of place.
Speaker 1never a hair out of place. Never a hair out of place Makeup done.
Speaker 2Beautiful jewelry Like one color in her shirt will match like the rhinestone in a shoe, and it's just impeccably done.
Speaker 2My mom is not. Is a hippie, my mom is. So it's funny because nicole is fancy pants, I am not, my sister is not fancy and one of her friends is extremely fancy pants. So I don't know if that's just like a genetic thing that we just automatically gravitate to people who are fancy, to fancy people or what we're just like. Don't look at me, look at my fancy friend here. I don't know how that works, but yes, so that video.
Speaker 1Yeah, is it's so true? Yeah, it's so true. That's funny. And then recently he played a show at Madison Square Garden and he sang that Christy Brinkley was there.
Speaker 2I saw that and he sang it to her.
Speaker 1Oh, it was so sweet. I saw that. And again, like his wife was there, but there was no hard feelings or anything weird about it.
Speaker 2But yeah, I also wanted to do some because I got a list here too Not a long list, so don't worry, we're not going to be here forever Because I got a list here too.
Speaker 1Not a long list, so don't worry, we're not going to be here forever One of them.
Speaker 2Where did it go? Damn it, I just missed it. Oh, lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, that was one I did read but didn't put on here.
Speaker 2The only reason I say that is because of their daughter. Yeah, I mean yeah.
Speaker 1She is she, yeah, she is. She broke Channing Tatum's heart yeah she's absolutely gorgeous. She is stunning. Who was another one that? Oh, remember when um Madonna dated Ned Beatty? Yeah, after they made oh my God, oh, what was that Shit? No, it wasn't shit. No, oh, it was detective. Yeah.
Speaker 2Dick Tracy yes, it was Dick Tracy, whew. Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere. I don't care for Richard Gere or Cindy Crawford.
Speaker 1I like Cindy Crawford, richard Gere, meh.
Speaker 2So they did that movie in Berlin Runaway Bride oh, have you ever seen it?
Speaker 1I don't think so. It's not a great movie. I don't like chick flicks.
Speaker 2I don't either, but the only reason I ever watch it is because it's Berlin and. I, if you live in this area or are familiar with Ocean City in any way, shape or form. There is a great 80s movie called Violets Are Blue. Kevin Kline, sissy Spacek why did I don't know if it was like it was after she did Carrie. So she was pretty famous and I feel like he should have been at the time too. It's a phenomenal movie.
Speaker 1I remember that movie.
Speaker 2I don't know if it's just because I know people in it, because my aunt Extras. My dad's brother and his wife are in it and we were going to be in it, but I don't remember why we weren't. But it's just if you know Ocean City Maryland and you loved Ocean City Maryland at any point it is. They're on Assateague.
Speaker 1It's a really fun.
Speaker 2It's a fun movie to watch. I made my husband watch it and he was like I haven't. I never knew about this movie at all and I was like the only. I mean I know it because I know people in it. But the movie theater that I used to go to as a kid was like three blocks from my house and I very much remember they premiered the movie there, like that they had sissy was there and, um, kevin klein and like everybody they had a red carpet event wow yeah, at the sun, that's so cool is that where we saw men in black yeah, okay, um, so they had, and I remember it very like, I can remember it like it was yesterday because they had the big search lights around and it was like I mean hollywood.
Speaker 1Oh, it was, wow hands down.
Speaker 2Hollywood had come to town that's amazing, and it. The whole movie is set there. The whole movie it's the boardwalk, everything it it's a. So if you know the area, yeah, you should check it out. I love it, but those are the only ones I really Okay. Burst into me was really the ones that.
