When celebrities share too much

Usually it’s great to see a glamorous starlet or Hollywood hunk open up in an interview, reminding us common folk that a real heart and soul thrives beneath the bronzed surface. But every so often we end up getting way more information that we bargained for. In light of “Behind the Candelabra” star Michael Douglas’ recent revelation, here are some of the most groan-inducing celebrity TMIs I’ve ever heard.  


Michael Douglas’ throat cancer caused by oral sex

The Academy Award-winning actor has made a triumph comeback with his latest HBO appearance where he stars as the flamboyant star Liberace. But he recently reveled to “The Guardian” that his throat cancer was caused by HPV, and more specifically by “cunnilingus.” I applaud Douglas’ battle with cancer and he’s just as enjoyable on screen as ever, but there is never an appropriate time to say the word “cunnilingus” on television. Like, never ever. Not to worry though, because guess what Douglas says is throat cancer’s best cure? More cunnilingus.


Ryan Lochte’s “pitched tent”

The Olympian may have eleven medals and a reality TV show, but the brightest bulb in the tanning bed he is not. The 28-year old can hardly make it through a sentence without insulting at least 8 rules of the English language. But his worst offense was letting the cameras catch him looking a little too excited one day before a photo shoot. Suffice it say, Lochte was a bit too sexually stimulated to be on camera. But remember, this is also the guy who pees in pools at the Olympics.


Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey get it on to her music

You won’t find too many celebrities more self-indulgent or narcissistic than Mr. & Mrs. Mariah Carey. But the “American Idol” judge and one time “Wild ‘n Out” host reached their vomit-inducing apex when Cannon admitted on Howard Stern’s show that he and Mariah have sex to her music. Not to be satisfied with that overshare, Cannon went on to say that when Mariah isn’t home, he will pleasure himself to the diva’s hit “Hero.” I’m all about the self-love, but let’s keep these private details in the bedroom where they belong.


Allison Williams watches her sex scenes with her pops

Allison Williams, the bright young talent and “Girls” co-star, has acted out some of the most awkward and realistic sex scenes on television thanks to Lena Dunham’s vision. I’ve applauded how game the cast was to portray an accurate rendering of sex on screen. But she revealed on Anderson Cooper’s talk show that she has watched said scenes with her father and brother. It’s one thing to be an open family, but a whole other ball game when you consider her father is trusted news anchor Brian Williams.
