From guilty pleasures to quirky habits and awkward childhood moments...
Of all the words usually associated with celebrities, ordinary definitely isn't one of them. To us mere mortals their worlds seem to comprise of flawless photo shoots, glamorous premiers and jealousy-inducing getaways to private islands. But then, every so often, a celeb will say something surprisingly normal to remind us that they're actually as human as the rest of us....
‘When I have bad days, I just eat lots of chocolate ice cream and dance to the Lion King soundtrack. It's really odd, but it's true.’ Blake Lively
'I don’t have a very good diet. I love beer, fries, burgers, but if I have to get in a bikini then I eat carrot sticks for three days. I’m one extreme or the other.' Margot Robbie
‘I’m a horrible dancer! I’m like a dad at prom. I look like Gumby getting electrocuted.’ Jennifer Lawrence
'Working on my fantasy of what I SHOULD have said to that FedEx girl who gave me attitude.' Anna Kendrick via Twitter.
‘When I’m dating someone, if she bonds with my cats I’ll give her a chance maybe more than I would otherwise. But if she doesn’t like my cats, it’s kind of a deal breaker.’ Dave Franco
