Keke Palmer’s latest platter of hot wings has a little sweetness to it.
After all, the Nope actor neutralized the heat with her lip gloss. During her Sept. 15 appearance on Hot Ones, Keke gave host Sean Evans a kiss after he revealed that he has a crush on her.
“There’s one more thing I’d like to say, Sean,” Keke, 32, said towards the end of the episode. “I saw an interview where you said I was your favorite guest and all this really sweet stuff. And I know we’ve just had some wings, but I thought that maybe we could just have a quick smooch to see if there’s a spark.”
Sean, 39, blushed and didn’t hesitate to accept the kiss, telling the Scream Queens star, “Yeah, let’s do it.”
The duo—who previously connected on Hot Ones in 2017 and 2021—then stood up from the table and shared a kiss. And if their bubbly reactions weren’t enough proof of their chemistry, the show’s team edited in a few fireworks in the distance.
“The spark was sparking,” Keke complimented the interaction, to which Sean sweetly replied, “When I’m dying and my life flashes before my eyes, I’ll have that snapshot.”
Indeed, Sean revealed that he was smitten by the True Jackson VP alum in 2023. During his appearance on Amelia’s Dimoldenberg’s Chicken Shop Date in November of that year, she asked the Hot Ones host if he “ever had a crush” on one of his guests. And after he encouraged her to guess the answer, he confirmed that it was Keke.
“Very charming,” he said of the actress at the time. “Very charming woman.”
Then, over a year later, Keke—who shares 2-year-old son Leodis with ex-boyfriend Darius Jackson—reacted to Sean’s compliment like a true Virgo.
“Not to say that I was surprised or I wasn’t surprised,” she told People in August 2024. “But when I heard it and people were sending it to me, I was like, ‘I knew the vibes were vibing.’”

So much so, that the Black Swan actress revealed they keep an open-door policy at home.
“That includes the bathroom,” she told E! News in September 2022. “It’s just one of those where, for better or for worse, as a family and the kids have all kind of embodied bodily function as a very standard norm.”
Mila said she arrived at the decision after her family kept knocking on the door and asking to come in, which prompted her to oblige: “I was like, ‘Oh, forget it. Just keep the door open.'”
Pre-kids, she might not have imagined she’d flush that particular boundary away.
She added, “I’d never thought that I would be the person that was able to go to the bathroom with the door open.”

It happened more than a decade ago, the singer revealed on her Whine Down with Jana Kramer podcast in November, and though she can’t remember “how many dates it was,” she does recall their last encounter.
Jana, then about 26 years old, said Chris invited her over to his house while he had friends in town from Boston.
“The last interaction that I remember is him going into the bathroom after I just went with asparagus pee,” Jana remembered, referencing the veggie’s tendency to give urine a very distinct scent. “We didn’t hook up that night. He stayed up late with his friends and then [in] the morning I did the asparagus walk of shame out of his house.”
She added, “I never heard from him again.”

Not all of these confessions are amusing.

“I told a lie when I was 34 years old and it was the biggest mistake of my life. It just got bigger and bigger and bigger and got buried deeper and deeper inside me,” Elisabeth told The Ankler newsletter Dec. 7, adding, “I’ve never had any form of cancer.”
Summed up Finch, who was placed on administrative leave from the ABC medical drama before eventually resigning, said, “What I did was wrong. Not okay. F–ked up. All the words.”

Telling The New York Times the lengths she would go to for a more youthful appearance, the reality star cracked that she was willing to try just about anything.
“If you told me that I literally had to eat poop every single day and I would look younger, I might,” she said in June. “I just might.”
In a July 2022 interview with Allure, Kim said she was “kind of joking” about the comment, though the idea didn’t seem too terrible.
“But now that I think about it,” Kim added, “I would probably eat s–t if someone told me, ‘If you eat this bowl of poop every single day, you’ll look younger.'”
How much could she make room for? “Maybe just a bite,” she told the outlet. “I don’t think I can do a whole bowl.”

“I was confident it was all air,” he insisted. “I’m so sorry. I watched this crowd go from loving me to just being completely out.”
