We often place celebrities on a pedestal, imagining their lives are perfect especially behind closed doors. But as podcasts become the new confessional and memoirs fly off the shelves, our favorite stars are shattering that illusion. Some of the world's biggest names have openly discussed sexual habits that range from the deeply spiritual to the wildly unconventional.
Here is a curated list of 10 international stars who bravely (or perhaps recklessly) shared their most intimate, unusual bedroom secrets.
The Women: Unapologetic and Unfiltered
1. Kesha: Meditation and Self-Love
In a world of fast-paced pop anthems, Kesha revealed a surprisingly zen approach to pleasure. During a 2026 appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, she admitted to a practice that raises eyebrows but makes total sense: combining masturbation with mindfulness.
"I actually masturbate to gratitude meditations," she confessed.
She elaborated that it's part of a "reprogramming" effort to reclaim pleasure, especially after surviving trauma. "It is OK as a woman to feel pleasure in this world," she stated, adding that she now does it every day without embarrassment. It’s a practice that turns a physical act into a form of radical self-care.
2. Cardi B: The "Done It All" List
When it comes to being candid, Cardi B is the queen. During her own appearance on Call Her Daddy, host Alex Cooper asked her to reveal a kink she'd never spoken about. The "WAP" rapper didn't skip a beat, essentially saying there isn't much she hasn't tried.
However, she did get specific, noting a desire for a threesome specifically to explore intimacy with the other woman involved, including going down on her simultaneously. She also revealed she is open to analingus, provided the "guy's got to be into that," though she jokes she prefers to "stay up north".
3. Holly Madison: The "Weird" Group Sex Protocol
Life at the Playboy Mansion wasn't always the fantasy it appeared to be. Holly Madison, Hugh Hefner's number one girlfriend for years, broke down the "really weird scene" of the mandatory group sex nights.
She explained that the girls who weren't actively engaged with Hefner would "kind of be acting like they were active with the other girls, but not really," while giant porn screens played in the background. The result? "Nobody liked it and everybody tried to just get it done as fast as possible". It’s a shocking confession that paints the mansion less as a pleasure palace and more as a bizarre workplace.
4. Pamela Anderson: Catching Jack Nicholson in the Act
In her memoir Love, Pamela, the Baywatch icon recalled a particularly memorable, and odd, encounter at the Playboy Mansion involving a certain Hollywood legend. While fixing her lip gloss in the bathroom, she walked in on Jack Nicholson in the middle of a threesome with two women.
Instead of leaving, she lingered. "I guess that got him to the finish line," she wrote, "because he made a funny noise, smiled, and said, 'Thanks, dear'". The voyeuristic experience is a wild look into the excess of the 90s Hollywood scene.
5. Nikki Glaser: The "Hot Husband" Fetish
Comedian Nikki Glaser took a unique spin on the jealousy trope by admitting she has a "hot husband" fetish. She finds pleasure in hearing about her boyfriend's past sexual encounters with other women.
"It would make me horny to think about him doing that with other girls," she admitted on Call Her Daddy. She would ask for all the details how they got together, the nitty-gritty and use it as foreplay. It’s a confession that completely flips the script on retroactive jealousy.
The Men: Strange Bedfellows and Unusual Rules
6. Will Smith: Vomiting After Orgasms
The Fresh Prince got very real about his younger years in his memoir Will. He revealed that a period of "rampant sex" to cope with a broken heart was so "constitutionally disagreeable to the core of [his] being" that he developed a physical reaction to his own orgasms.
It "would literally make me gag and sometimes even vomit," he confessed. It’s a startling admission that highlights the strange disconnect between physical release and emotional wellbeing.
7. Joe Jonas: The Awkward Mile-High High-Five
Joe Jonas shared a story that is less about a fetish and more about horrific timing. He joined the mile-high club on a private plane, but the aftermath was his most embarrassing moment.
"Left the bathroom, I thought I was high-fiving my drummer," he recalled. "After the high-five, I realized it was the flight attendant". He admitted the sex was "worth it," but having to face a flight attendant who just saw the act is certainly a unique form of regret.
8. Jelly Roll: The "Twister" Technique
Country star Jelly Roll got brutally honest about his sex life before his significant weight loss. He explained that his size made intimacy a logistical nightmare.
"I was having to play Twister to have sex left foot here, right foot in the X," he said on the Joe Rogan Experience. He was so large that he couldn't even get aroused properly, making sex more of a frustrating puzzle than a passionate act.
9. Ryan Donnelly: The "No Sex On Gym Days" Rule
Married At First Sight star Ryan Donnelly found himself in hot water when his wife revealed his "sex protocol" on air. According to Jacqui, Ryan refuses to have sex on days he trains at the gym.
His reasoning? He believes it will affect his testosterone levels and physical performance. While he compared himself to athletes who avoid sex before tournaments, fans were quick to point out the irony he’s just going to the gym. The rule became a massive point of contention, with Ryan getting angry that his private life was exposed, despite previously discussing his wife's "head game" with the other men.
10. Robert Pattinson: Pleasuring Himself on Set
For the sake of "art," Robert Pattinson took method acting to its absolute limit. While filming Little Ashes, he played Salvador Dalí and was required to masturbate on camera.
"I pleasured myself in front of the camera," he confessed to a German magazine, explaining that he tried to fake the orgasm but it "just doesn't work". He joked about his "orgasm face" being recorded for eternity, solidifying this as one of the most committed (and bizarre) acting choices in history.
