“My ex-boyfriend came to [my comedy] show. I told him it’s never gonna work.” Joking about her Always Be My Maybe love interest Keanu Reeves ALI WONG “Can you write back and ask them to send me a letter too? Thanks.” Responding to Maggie Rogers’ note from Barack and Michelle ObamaNIALL HORAN “John just threw an entire suitcase in the car and said he’s going to the studio. He’s for sure leaving us.” Kidding about her husband and father of her two kids, John Legend CHRISSY TEIGEN “You’d think she’d like when I sang to her.

WELLS & SARAH Close Call Wells Adams surprised Sarah Hyland with a beautiful proposal on the beach in July, but he almost had to pop the question at the airport. On arrival in Fiji, the Bachelor in Paradise star, 35, tells Us he got “really scared” when agents wanted to inspect his drone case, which is where he’d hidden the engagement ring. “There was a moment where I was like, ‘Am I going to do this in Fijian customs?’” We bet the actress, 28, would’ve said yes either way! TRISHA & GARTH Answered Prayers Garth Brooks knows he hit the jackpot. “I was lucky enough to marry my best friend,” the singer, 57, tells Us about his wife of almost 14 years, Trisha Yearwood, who’s also his Habitat for Humanity…

For Michael Douglas’ sake, let’s hope life doesn’t imitate art. The Kominsky Method actor, 75, talked to Us at PaleyFest NY on Oct. 11 about his character, Sandy, in the Golden Globe-winning series, and specifically the character of Sandy’s daughter (Sarah Baker), who’s dating an older man. When asked how he’d feel if his own daughter, Carys, 16, brought home someone older, he was candid: “I think it would kill me.” Douglas’ wife (and Carys’ mom) is Catherine Zeta-Jones, who’s 25 years younger than the Oscar winner; and Douglas’ first wife, Diandra Luker, is 12 years his junior. “I’d try to support her but I’d be watching very carefully,” he explains about Carys. The irony isn’t lost on Us!…

Patricia Heaton is used to getting stopped — but not for autographs. “I constantly get asked, ‘What are you wearing?’” the star of CBS’ Carol’s Second Act (Thursdays, 9:30 P.M.) says of the Jessica McClintock perfume inside her bag. “A woman followed me through the airport to ask me. I’ve been wearing it for years.” Heaton, 61, tells Us what else she carries. IT’S THE BALM! “I gave all of the [Carol’s Second Act] writers and actors a Dr. Kiss lip balm as an opening-day gift. It’s funny because it looks like a little pill.” HOT WHEELS On her car keys: “My husband [David Hunt] got me an Audi without asking what kind of car I wanted. I was a little miffed, but it’s incredible.” AN OPEN BOOK “I get freaked…

When Robin Thicke and fiancée April Love Geary welcomed back-to-back babies Mia, 19 months, and Lola, 7 months, in 2018 and 2019, 9-year-old Julian, Thicke’s son with ex-wife Paula Patton, could have resented giving up his “only child” status. Instead, the Masked Singer judge tells Us, he became a “great big brother.” Thicke, 42, says Julian is “all heart” around his little sisters and that he “loves his family.” The star shares more with Us about his precious bond with his brood. Q: Do you see Julian following in your footsteps? He loves to sing. He loves his friends. He’s just a happy young man. Q: How’s life with two kids under 2 years old? I just take it one hour at a time, honestly. Q: Are you and April…

Joe Giudice is a new man — in more ways than one! Teresa Giudice’s husband — who’d been in ICE custody since March following a 41-month stint in prison for fraud — returned to his native Italy on Oct. 11. The slimmed-down Real Housewives of New Jersey star, 47, was practically unrecognizable in a Face-Time screenshot shared by his oldest daughter, Gia, 18 (inset, top). “He is extremely happy to be released, more than words can describe,” the family’s lawyer, James Leonard, said in a statement to Us. “We are still fighting, and it is his desire to return home to the United States to be reunited with his family.” WHAT’S NEXT? While freedom is no doubt good news for Joe, it could spell disaster for his almost 20-year marriage…

Amanda Bynes’ most recent headlines have revolved around her ongoing struggles with mental health, but she almost made the news for a happier reason: A source exclusively reveals to Us that the actress, 33, “was in talks” to compete on the current season of Dancing With the Stars, but it “didn’t pan out.” Says another insider, “Doing [the show] just wasn’t what she envisioned for her future.” Instead, “she’s taking things one day at a time.”…

The Challenge’s Cory Wharton and Taylor Selfridge of Are You the One? are embarking on a new reality — as parents! “It was definitely a surprise,” Wharton exclusively tells Us. He’s already dad to Ryder, 2, with Teen Mom OG’s Cheyenne Floyd, and having a second child is something he’s wanted for a long time — especially since he didn’t know he was a dad until Ryder was 6 months old. “It’s already different,” he says of Selfridge’s pregnancy, noting that he’s been able to be with his girlfriend (of almost two years off and on) every step of the way. “This is like my first baby, almost.” The happy news has also strengthened the Ex on the Beach co-stars’ relationship. “We had no choice but to grow closer,” Wharton,…

More than a month after a near-fatal car wreck, Kevin Hart has broken his silence in a statement to Us that focuses on his fellow passengers in the crash. “I have nothing but love for Jared and [I] wish him and Rebecca a speedy recovery.” Jared and Rebecca are pals Jared Black and Rebecca Broxterman, who were with Hart when his car (which he wasn’t driving) veered off an L.A. highway and landed in a ditch on Sept. 1. Hart, for his part, has been slowly healing after undergoing back surgery, and has even gotten back to working on the Jumanji movie. “He was cleared to work for short periods of time,” a source reveals to Us. “He’s been at the studio for a few hours a day doing very…

LOVE This is the obvious one! Paltrow was married to the Coldplay frontman for 12 years. ASTROLOGY According to their shared star sign, Libra, both women are obsessed with symmetry and maintaining a healthy equilibrium. WORK They’ve each brought popular reads to the big screen!

Wool “Wool fibers can shrink easily, so you should always dry clean them. But don’t overdo it — bring them in after five or more wears.” Cashmere “Cashmere should also be laundered occasionally, after three or four wears. Handwash with a mild detergent and lay flat to dry.” Knit/Cotton “Wash on a delicate cycle in cold water and always put them in a net bag to avoid any stretching of the fabric. Dry on a low temperature until slightly damp, then lay flat to dry.” Polyester “This is the easiest fabric to work with since it’s manmade and not susceptible to shrinkage. It’s OK to put in the washer and dryer — just dry on a low temperature.” Use code UsWeekly20 to receive 20 percent off cleaning of three or…

And you thought Joker was polarizing? Meet this off-kilter antihate satire about a 10-year-old boy named Jojo (Roman Griffin Davis) and his bumbling imaginary friend, Adolf Hitler. Toward the end of World War II in Germany, lonely Nazi-in-training Jojo is aghast when he discovers that his Resistance-fighting single mom (Scarlett Johansson) is hiding a Jewish girl (Thomasin McKenzie) in their attic — but the two children soon form an unlikely friendship. Though the whimsical film recently won the audience award at the Toronto International Film Festival, the absurdist humor is most definitely not for everyone. Still, writer-director Taika Waititi (who also plays Hitler) delivers a meaningful message: Love and laughter can conquer hate, and the only real lunacy in the world is war.…

James and Kimberly Van Der Beek have their hands full with five kids at home — and this is just the beginning! The Dancing With the Stars contestant, 42, is expecting another bundle of joy with his wife, 37, and chose to publicly share the pregnancy news despite their previous miscarriages. The pair want to “encourage people to talk” about their tragedies instead of suffering in secret, James tells Us. They’ve even been “as honest as possible” with their children, Joshua, Olivia, Annabel, Emilia and Gwendolyn, about their pregnancy losses and “don’t try to sugarcoat anything.” While some may think the mini members of the Dawson’s Creek alum’s brood are “too young to understand,” he disagrees. “They get the light and the dark,” he explains. That’s why he and Kimberly…

And just like that, Liam Hemsworth is off the market too. After watching his ex-wife, Miley Cyrus, re-bound with Kaitlynn Carter and then Cody Simpson following their August split, the actor’s moved on to actress Maddison Brown, 22. The duo were first spotted on Oct. 11 at NYC’s Sant Ambroeus, where they “seemed very at ease with each other,” an onlooker tells Us. Things got steamier for the duo a day later, when they stepped out again for a date night at Alley Cat. “They were cuddling all night,” an insider notes, adding that they weren’t shy about PDA. “They looked so into each other.” MOVING ON The new romance is exactly what the Aussie, 29, needed after losing his love of 10 years and wife of eight months. “He’s…

VANESSA BRYANT Vanessa stood by her man, Kobe Bryant, when the former Laker was accused of rape in 2003. (He denied it.) Bryant rewarded her loyalty with a $4 million diamond ring. CAMILLE COSBY As more than 60 women accused Bill Cosby of sexual misconduct (which he denies), Camille’s loyalty never wavered. When he was found guilty of sexual assault, she called the conviction “mob justice, not real justice.” BIJOU PHILLIPS Phillips has remained married to Danny Masterson despite a suit filed by four women in August claiming that he’d raped them. (Masterson denies the allegations.) GEORGINA CHAPMAN “My heart breaks for the women who have suffered,” said Chapman, who left husband Harvey Weinstein in October 2017 after he was accused of multiple counts of sexual misconduct. He has denied…

Hell hath no fury like a horned fairy scorned! Angelina Jolie proved that with malicious glee in 2014’s hit Maleficent, but in this follow-up, the so-called mistress of evil is more like a shrinking violet — that is, when she’s on screen at all. The focus here is lovely Princess Aurora (Elle Fanning), now an adult set to wed her prince (Harris Dickinson). Little does she know her future mother-in-law, Queen Ingrith (Michelle Pfeiffer), is hatching a plan to start a deadly war between the humans and the fairies while also framing Maleficent. That’s a pretty heavy plot for a fairy tale. What’s the fun in having dueling old-school divas (with to-die-for cheekbones) if Jolie’s hiding out in victim mode? At least the happily ever after is pure magic. MARA…

Q: As a member of the Roots and producer of AMC’s Hip Hop: The Songs That Shook America, you’ve met your fair share of stars. Who would attend your dream potluck? Lenny Kravitz, attorney Mark Heller, Shep Gordon, Will Smith, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley, Chris Rock, Fran Lebowitz and my girlfriend, who’ll disown me if I don’t mark a spot for her. Q: What’s your No. 1 tip for finding the right balance of guests? The ideal dinner party is a balance of movers, shakers, talkers and listeners. Q: Did anyone’s contribution to the book surprise you?

1. I’ve always wished I could be an incredible modern dancer — I always want to move my body. 2. I’m happiest when I’m traveling. My work and life have been so stuck in L.A., I feel most relaxed when I’m somewhere else. 3. For my 30th birthday [Feb. 16], I took a trip to NYC! 4. I love to walk around and get lost in the NYC streets. 5. Large crowds give me anxiety. Being present and counting breaths helps when I’m anxious. 6. Because I travel for work so much, I give other people my Delta SkyMiles. It’s my favorite gift. Come see me — flight is on me! 7. I donate clothes and tchotchkes more than just seasonally. 8.
