Holly Madison is spilling all about her sex life in the Playboy Mansion.

The former Girls Next Door star, 46, detailed group romps with the late Hugh Hefner during the Tuesday, May 5, episode of the “Let’s Be Honest With Kristin Cavallari” podcast.

“It would be kind of silhouetted because you’d have, like, these giant screens of porn going and it would be just girls like talking s*** with each other,” Madison said, claiming it was an awkward experience that she and other women rushed through. She added, “It was a really weird scene and nobody liked it and everybody tried to just get it done as fast as possible.”

When asked how the trysts began, Madison — who previously identified as the magazine mogul’s No. 1 girl for seven years — told host Kristin Cavallari, “Kind of like taking turns and then the girls who weren’t active with him were kind of like acting like they were active with the other girls, but not really.”

The truth behind the fantasy. The Playboy Mansion is the stuff of pop culture legend, but former Playmates have been brutally honest about what life was really like there — and how the late Hugh Hefner treated them. Holly Madison was never technically a Playmate, but she did live with Hefner, who died in September […]

Fans got to know Madison and Hef’s other main girlfriends Bridget Marquardt and Kendra Wilkinson when the trio appeared on five seasons of their E! reality series, The Girls Next Door, which debuted in 2005. The sixth and final season premiered in 2009, introducing his future wife, Crystal Harris, as well as twins Kristina and Karissa Shannon. (Crystal has since remarried after Hefner died in September 2017. He was 91.)

“But after we started filming the show, [the group sex sessions] just stopped, which was amazing,” Madison said. “He loved the show. He was like high off the show,” she speculated. “It gave him new relevance, like the ego boost. So he didn’t really feel the need to like, ‘Oh, I have to do these compulsive sex nights to make myself feel wanted and relevant,’ I think.”

Madison said the hookups often happened after they went on date nights. While recalling their past, she admitted there was a point in time when things changed, which came as a relief.
“I think me, Bridget, and Kendra were so on the same page that we just didn’t want to do that anymore,” Madison said of how the dynamic evolved over time, noting there was no conversation but rather an overall understanding. “Nobody had to say anything. We were just like, ‘OK, we’re not going out anymore.’”

It may have been over a decade since The Girls Next Door first aired on E!, but it still hasn’t been forgotten quite yet. The Girls Next Door — which ran for six seasons from 2005 to 2010 — gave viewers an inside look at the eventful lives of the late Hugh Hefner’s three main […]

Madison, now a mom of two, said that toward the end of her relationship with Hefner, she had sex with him “very rarely.”

“It would just be us watching a movie or he’s doing a crossword puzzle and I’m reading,” she shared. “It was very suburban.”

Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey’s romance is one for the record books.

Culpo dated former New England Patriots player Danny Amendola on and off for two years before she was set up with McCaffrey in June 2019. The duo, however, kept their romance somewhat private in the months that followed.

It wasn’t until February 2020, that the couple publicly confirmed their relationship while attending the NFL Honors ceremony in Miami, Florida. That same month, the twosome gushed over their budding romance on Valentine’s Day.

“Happy Valentine’s Day to my best friend. Thank you for changing my life and showing me the kind of love I always wanted but never thought was possible,” Culpo wrote via Instagram at the time. “You are the definition of an answered prayer. I am the luckiest girl in the world.”

After four years of dating, the twosome announced their engagement in April 2023. Culpo and McCaffrey officially tied the knot in June 2024. The couple welcomed their first baby, Colette, in July 2025, and nearly one year later, Culpo revealed she’s pregnant with baby No. 2.

Carl Radke is not speaking to his “Summer House” co-star, West Wilson. During a new interview, the veteran reality TV star detailed how challenging it’s been to move forward with Wilson after he betrayed a handful of his close friends.

Speaking with Reality Nightcap on the red carpet, Radke said that while Wilson has reached out to him via text, he has not responded to the sports journalist-turned-TV personality for several reasons.

“I’m not ready to respond,” Radke said. “From what I know, what’s gone on and how he’s kinda handling it and how I handle things… part of me worries he doesn’t fully understand still the impact of this.”

For those who may be unfamiliar with the latest “Summer House” drama, Wilson, alongside Amanda Batula, made headlines in March 2026 when they confirmed their relationship after months of speculation.

The problem? Wilson was previously dating Batula’s ex-best friend, Ciara Miller. While their relationship won’t be revealed during the regular season, it will be a major part of the discussion at the upcoming three-part reunion.

Radke said that he takes issue with Wilson’s behavior, noting that it has had a severe impact on people he cares deeply about.

“We’ve been over this many times with him with Ciara and everything, many dinner tables on camera, many seasons,” Radke said. “And here we are again. So, I don’t have a lot of grace for some of it.”

He continued, “I can’t really hold space for someone like that.”

Kyle Cooke In An Awkward Space With ‘Summer House’ Co-Star Wilson

Radke isn’t the only one with strong feelings about Wilson and his secret relationship with Batula.

Kyle Cooke, who, mind you, announced his separation from Batula in January 2026, said he’s still figuring out where he stands with the 31-year-old.

“West did text me last week,” Cooke said, adding that he replied with a voice memo because he had much to get off his chest. Even then, Cooke hinted that there’s a chance that he and Wilson get back on the right path, he’s just not sure when that’ll be.

“I’m not the kind of guy that holds grudges, so obviously this is a very unfortunate situation,” he said. “I don’t really think people realize just how close we were. So, it’s tough. This is uncharted territory for me.”

‘Summer House’ Star Reads Text Wilson Sent Him On ‘Watch What Happens Live’

The two above aren’t the only “Summer House” stars figuring out where they stand with Wilson.

According to Bravo’s Daily Dish, Wilson’s friend, KJ Dillard, told Andy Cohen that he, too, was struggling with how to move forward with the Missouri native.

On “Watch What Happens Live,” Dillard said that Wilson actually sent him a text message after they filmed the reunion on April 23; however, he didn’t open it until he was filming “WWHL” on May 5.

The text reads: “I wanted to thank you for your articulation and kindness yesterday, despite being hurt. I’ve been off social, and I think I lost touch with how much hurt there was.”

Wilson went on to tell Dillard how “incredibly sorry” he was for his behavior, then said he’d be ready to talk whenever Dillard was.

This Reality Star From Another Network Had A Lot To Say About Wilson

Bravolebrities aren’t the only public figures with something to say about the “Summer House” scandal.

According to The Blast, Angelina Pivarnick from MTV’s “Jersey Shore” slammed Wilson during a recent interview, calling the “Show Me Something” podcaster a “f-ck boy.”

“He used to slide in my DMs,” she said. “I don’t know if he was with Ciara [Miller] at the time ’cause the time frame is a little off, but I know a f–kboy when I see one. Ciara’s better off.”

More Drama Is Following Wilson

And if things couldn’t get worse for Wilson, the reality star’s cousin was recently arrested and charged with the murder of their step-grandmother, Gayle R. Wilson.

According to The Blast, Wilson’s cousin, Dakota Sweeney, was taken into custody after law enforcement officials found Gayle dead and a firearm on Sweeney’s person.

Per legal documents, Sweeney allegedly killed his elderly grandmother after arguing with the 75-year-old incessantly over household chores.

Ariana Madix and Tom Sandoval have officially offloaded their Los Angeles home three years after their dramatic breakup.

Us Weekly confirmed on Friday, May 8, that the Vanderpump Rules alums quietly sold the home that they bought together in 2019 to new owners for $3.1 million. (TMZ was first to report the news.)

The former couple, who called it quits in March 2023 after Sandoval, 43, was busted having an affair with their then-costar Rachel “Raquel” Leviss, bought the house in 2019 for $2 million.

Following their split after nine years together, Madix, 40, and Sandoval were embroiled in more drama as they battled over the home. 

In the aftermath of the cheating scandal, Sandoval spoke about continuing to live in the  5-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom property during an appearance on the “Howie Mandel Does Stuff” podcast in April 2023.

“I don’t have a lot of friends I can stay with right now. … I kind of run the house,” he said. “I handle the gardening [and] the housekeeping. My assistant comes and cleans and stocks everything. I basically run everything in the house.”

Sandoval shared on the podcast that he and Madix used a mediator to communicate at the time.

“[Ariana’s] in the house. This is a big house. We have a go-between. We text when we’re coming and going,” he continued. “The house is not listed yet, no. [Ariana’s] really busy right now, she’s obviously blowing up. I’m really happy to see that. I’ve been busy as well trying to get things together.”

In January, Us Weekly confirmed that Madix and Sandoval settled the legal battle over the sale of their shared home.

The former couple reached an agreement on January 13, when the Love Island USA host filed a notice of settlement of the entire case in Los Angeles Superior Court. According to the filing, the dismissal of the case is “conditional” and would require “the satisfactory completion of specified terms” within 30 days of the date of the settlement.

Amanda Edwards/Getty Images; Ben Symons/Peacock Tom Sandoval has officially agreed to sell his and Ariana Madix‘s home after over a year of contentious back and forth. Sandoval, 42, returned to his “Everybody Loves Tom” podcast on Wednesday, October 23, with girlfriend Victoria Lee Robinson as his cohost. He used the platform to share a major […]

Madix joined the Vanderpump Rules cast in November 2013. Madix and Sandoval announced they were dating during the show’s season two reunion in February 2014.

In December 2018, they told Us that they would likely never get engaged and wanted to spend their money on a home together instead.

“To me, we’d rather put our money in that investment than, to us, marriage or a wedding and all that, an expensive ring,” Sandoval told Us at the time.

The former couple spoke to BravoTV in May 2019 about incorporating their own personalities into decorating their home.

“I feel like normally when it comes to decor in a house with a guy and a girl, it can be very like, ‘Okay, the girl just kind of does everything, the guy is like, I just added this one thing,’” Sandoval told the outlet. “But we obviously both have very strong personalities. You see a nice mix of Ariana and myself in there.”

Madix added, “We definitely had moments where one of us is really adamant about something, and the other one is not really feeling it. You compromise on those moments.”

Zoë Kravitz has publicly criticized Hulu for using her high-profile engagement to Harry Styles as a marketing tactic. 

The actress lashed out after the streaming service posted a joke on social media that connected her personal life to a television series they canceled years ago. 

Her blunt response has now reignited a long-standing feud between the star and the platform over the handling of her professional work.

Kravitz did not hold back when she discovered that Hulu was using her relationship with Styles to drive social media engagement. Last week, the streaming platform shared an Instagram photo of Kravitz in character as Robyn Brooks from her former series, “High Fidelity.” 

The caption of the now-deleted post claimed that her character would definitely have “Kiss All the Time, Disco Occasionally” on her playlist, a direct nod to the title of Styles’ fourth studio album, which debuted on March 6. 

Kravitz, now 37, found the post offensive and commented, “This is tacky,” while directly tagging the Disney-owned platform. Following her public disapproval, Hulu quickly removed the post from its page.

Notably, the frustration felt by the “Big Little Lies” star is rooted in the fact that Hulu canceled “High Fidelity” back in 2020 after just one season. Many fans supported her reaction, arguing that it is disrespectful for a network to use an actress’s current personal milestones for advertisement six years after axing her show. 

Additionally, Kravitz has been a vocal critic of the cancellation since it happened, famously pointing out that the move removed one of the few shows on the platform led by a woman of color. According to Page Six, she previously mentioned that Hulu made a “big mistake” by not realizing the cultural impact and the connection the show had with its audience. 

Harry Styles And Zoë Kravitz’s Relationship Has Reportedly Reached The Next Step

Kravitz’s blunt reaction to the streaming giant comes shortly after reports surfaced that the actress is now engaged to Styles.

The engagement rumors surrounding the two reached a fever pitch following weeks of intense speculation and new public sightings. Insiders described the 32-year-old pop star as being “completely smitten” with the actress, with one source saying that he would essentially do anything for her. 

The Blast reported that Kravitz is reportedly just as thrilled, with friends describing her as being “on cloud nine” as the couple takes this significant next step.

Zoë Kravitz Debuted A Million-Dollar Engagement Ring

While the reports of their engagement were initially based on insider tips, the visual evidence of their commitment recently became impossible to ignore on the streets of New York. Shortly after news of their status broke, Kravitz was seen prominently displaying a massive diamond ring that seemingly confirmed the relationship had reached a new level. 

According to The Blast, Kravitz turned heads in New York City when she was spotted wearing a striking diamond on her ring finger while dressed in a casual “Boy Next Door” cap. 

Despite her low-key outfit, the jewelry immediately became the main attraction, with experts estimating the piece is worth approximately $1 million.

Interestingly, this wasn’t the very first time the jewelry had made an appearance. Kravitz was photographed wearing the same diamond as far back as December, which suggests the proposal may have happened much earlier than many fans realized.

Channing Tatum Shared A Cryptic Post After The News Of Zoë Kravitz’ Engagement Broke

While Kravitz is reportedly looking toward a future with Styles and her million-dollar ring, her past relationship has resurfaced in the public eye through a series of emotional social media posts.

Her former fiancé, Channing Tatum, recently caught the attention of fans by sharing a deeply personal message just as news of her new engagement dominated the headlines. 

The Blast reported that Tatum sparked widespread speculation when he posted a cryptic poem on his Instagram stories titled “My Brain And Heart Divorced” by John Roedel. 

The poem describes a painful internal conflict where the mind and heart can no longer coexist, eventually sharing custody of a person while refusing to speak to one another. Many observers interpreted the move as a subtle reflection of his own feelings regarding his high-profile split from the actress.

Channing Tatum Seemingly Moves Toward Healing and Acceptance

While Tatum’s emotional social media activity highlighted his personal struggle, his most recent updates suggest he is finally finding a sense of peace with his ex-fiancée’s new life.

As Kravitz made headlines for her reported engagement, the actor shared another cryptic message that signaled a change in his perspective. 

Tatum shared a video on Instagram that featured a seal floating peacefully in water to the song “Only Time” by Enya, with a caption describing a desire to let go and trust in the “flow of the universe,” per The Blast.

According to those close to the actor, Tatum was initially surprised by how quickly Kravitz and Styles moved toward an engagement, but he has chosen not to dwell on the situation.

Among the most popular storytelling templates of the last few decades is “Lone Wolf and Cub,” inspired by the Japanese manga about a samurai and his young son. You’ve seen it in The Mandalorian, The Last of Us, and even Logan. Hollywood fully embraced the template over two decades ago, with the Denzel Washington and Dakota Fanning-led action-thriller film Man on Fire, which was recently remade as a streaming series on Netflix. A few years after the film’s release, Alfonso Cuarón directed the critically acclaimed sci-fi gem Children of Men, starring Clive Owen and Julianne Moore.

Although the template remains as popular as ever — The Mandalorian and Grogu is only a few days away — it has also produced several movies that have slipped through the cracks. Among them is a dystopian Western directed by genre specialist John Hillcoat, written by Mindhunter creator Joe Penhall, and headlined by Viggo Mortensen. The film also served as a launchpad of sorts for Kodi Smit-McPhee and featured veterans such as Charlize Theron and Guy Pearce. The film was based on a novel by the legendary Cormac McCarthy and released just two years after another McCarthy adaptation, No Country for Old Men, swept the Oscars.

Here’s How Long You Have Left to Watch the Dark Dystopian Western on Paramount+

We’re talking, of course, about The Road. Released in 2009, the movie underperformed at the box office, grossing $27 million worldwide against a reported budget of $25 million. Hillcoat’s two subsequent movies, Lawless and Triple 9, also underperformed commercially despite featuring popular stars. The Road‘s dark subject matter, which involved cannibalism, abandonment, and survival, made it a difficult sell to mainstream audiences. However, it was largely well-reviewed. The film holds a “Certified Fresh” 74% score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, where the consensus reads, “The Road‘s commitment to Cormac McCarthy’s dark vision may prove too unyielding for some, but the film benefits from hauntingly powerful performances from Viggo Mortensen and Kodi McPhee.” The movie was released only a year after the far more accessible post-apocalyptic action film The Book of Eli, which starred Washington and, funnily enough, also involved cannibals. You can watch The Road on Paramount+ in the United States, but only until May 24. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.

Marta Milans is excited to dive deeper into her M.I.A character’s arc in season 2 — and she has the perfect person she hopes will come play her onscreen husband.

“I don’t know why Tony Goldwyn is in my mind right now,” Milans exclusively told Us Weekly after the Peacock show premiered on Thursday, May 7. “Since we were just talking about Scandal, it has to be some WASP royalty.”

Milans noted that Goldwyn “is the epitome” of a perfect scene partner, adding, “Let’s call him.”

Created by Ozark‘s Bill Dubuque, M.I.A is a crime drama focused on Etta Tiger Jonze (Shannon Gisela), who seeks to avenge her family’s murder and rise to power in the Miami underworld.

Fan-favorite TV couples like 9-1-1’s Buck and Eddie, The Bear’s Sydney and Carmy and Tracker’s Colter and Reenie — or Billie — deserve to finally get together on screen in 2026. Based on Jeffery Deaver‘s novel The Never Game, Tracker has viewers tuning in each week to see their favorite fictional survivalist — a.k.a Colter […]

Milans, meanwhile, is related to the crime family responsible for Etta’s family being murdered — but she is trying to set herself apart.

“Caroline is not a criminal. She’s definitely on the edge. She is the daughter of a cartel leader but her dad made sure that Caroline would be the legitimate child — and he tries really hard to keep her out of that dark world,” she noted. “That is why I think her brothers have a chip on their shoulder about that and resent the fact that Caroline is the golden child. She gets sent off to university to get a great education. She comes back and she’s polished, well spoken and well dressed.”

Milans is meant to represent another side to the fictional crime family, telling Us, “She really carries that side very well. I think it’s fascinating to me to get to play that because she navigates both worlds very well. She does obviously walk over to the dark side later on in the season and you’ll see that. But until that moment, her ruthlessness and her hunger for getting her agenda and her goals executed will make her stop at nothing.”

The actress found it “really challenging and exciting” to play Caroline.

“It also is hilarious to me because her brothers will be torturing and killing people and they’re all dressed in perfectly crisp white shirts. You’re like, ‘You might want to wear something darker.’ But it works so well for that side of the story,” Milans said. “But then to also cut to Caroline and her ridiculous mansion with her luxurious suits and shoes. It was a lot of fun to create her wardrobe.”

Milans continued: “The way she presents herself is very informative of who she is and I think that was very exciting. … We had a wonderful showrunner that was very adamant about creating back stories for characters and that was very helpful to us.”

While reflecting on the work that went into M.I.A, Milans credited the writing team for helping evolve the show, saying, “We did get a lot of information that we could build on that’s not necessarily in the script or that is not talked about on screen. But if you inform that and build that, that really shines through. That’s part of the reason why the characters are so fully formed. Even if they’re cartel leaders, there is a layered construct in those characters. That was really important to me to dive deep into that.”

M.I.A is currently streaming on Peacock.
