12 Celebrity Friends You Forgot Were BFFs

Yesterday was “officially” National Best Friends’ Day, but not to worry: It’s never too late to celebrate your top platonic boo. So go ahead and plan a killer BFF date or throw together a thoughtful care package to send your long-distance bestie, and consider these 12 celebrity best friends who are legit #FriendshipGoals:

1. Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid: These two are the epitome of celeb BFFs. Kendall and Gigi do EVERYTHING together. From walking the runway in their shared first Victoria’s Secret runway show to swapping hair colors with each other for a gig, Kendall and Gigi are two peas in a pod. In fact, they might even be related (kinda sorta)! (Photo via Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty)

2. Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez: Though Taylor has a whole slew of Hollywood amigos, it’s Selena that seems to be her ride or die — after all, the two have known each since Selena was 13 and Taylor was 16, and for Taylor, that history means the world. She told E! back in 2014 that “longevity is something you really can find very precious and rare in relationships.” Too true, Tay. Too true. Whether they’re wowing fans onstage during one another’s tours or getting ready for red carpet events together, Selena and Taylor have each other’s back through everything from breakups (Selena with her infamous split from the Biebs; Tay from Harry Styles) to career success, and it’s pretty cool to witness.

3. Amy Schumer and Jennifer Lawrence: There’s nary a more fearsome twosome in Hollywood than Amy Schumer and Jennifer Lawrence, AKA, “A-Shue” and “J-Law.” Their epic vacay photos had us green with envy, and we thought it was seriously sweet when Jen surprised Amy after she won her Emmy. The two grew so close, there has even been talk of a reality show! No updates there yet, so in the meantime, we’ll continue to revel in the glory that was the duo’s first onscreen moment at the Golden Globes. (Photo via Paul Drinkwater/Getty)

4. Chrissy Teigen and Kim Kardashian West: As two power moms in Hollywood, Chrissy and Kim have a lot in common. So much so, in fact, that they’re pretty much BFFs nowadays. From Kim’s pregnancy advice and their maternity shopping sprees to their super adorbs brunch where “auntie Kim” met Chrissy’s daughter Luna, these two (and their musical spouses) could be the modern-day Laverne and Shirley (okay, okay, maybe that’s a stretch).

5. Adam Levine and Blake Shelton: These two might play the part of rivals on The Voice, but IRL, they’re basically the next Ben and Matt (see below for those OG besties). Blake reportedly even stayed with Adam while going through his divorce from Miranda Lambert. According to Blake, the pair works due to their… lack of commonality? As he told Country Countdown USA, “I think the thing that’s our bond is we come from such different worlds. I find we’ll get into conversations where we just pick each other’s brains. We’re interested in, ‘Why are you so weird?’” Case in point? Blake recently offered the ultimate showing of pregnancy empathy to Adam’s fiance Behati Prinsloo by showing off his very own baby bump. Okaaaayyy, then. (Photo via Kevin Winter/Getty)

6. Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale: Getting their big breaks opposite one another in Disney’s High School Musical more than 10 years ago (the cast had an epic 10-year reunion back in November), Vanessa and Ashley are still each other’s biggest cheerleaders. Vanessa ‘grammed about Ashley’s new makeup line earlier this week, writing, “So proud of my girl @ashleytisdale for launching Illuminate Cosmetics.” Need further proof? Vanessa walked down the aisle in 2014 as one of Ashley’s bridesmaids — it doesn’t get much closer than that. (Photo via Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty)

7. Demi Lovato and Iggy Azalea: While not the most likely of pairs — the recently single Demi is a pop star through and through while Iggy’s slightly more edgy with her “Fancy” rap game — Demi says that she and Iggy became friends due to their close proximity: The two are actually neighbors. “It was so cool to meet someone who is really real,” Demi said. From there, the two seemingly took on the world together, performing at the VMAs (complete with an epic post-VMAs pizza party), building Gingerbread houses and even celebrating life milestones — Demi is set to be a bridesmaid in Iggy’s wedding.

8. Ben Affleck and Matt Damon: Like we’d ever forget the OGs of best friends forever, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. Chums since they were young boys, this twosome famously broke into Hollywood together with their screenplay Good Will Hunting back in 1998, and the rest of their famedom is history. They’re closer than ever today — literally — with Ben hilariously smuggling Matt into Jimmy Kimmel Live underneath his suit just this February. (Photo via Frazer Harrison/Getty)

9. Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox: The most beautiful woman in the world, Jennifer Aniston, and her longtime bestie Courtney Cox have famously been the best of friends ever since their stint on… yes, Friends. Most recently reuniting for the show’s reunion, there have been some rumors of a blowout between the two. But even the best of friends tiff from time to time, and if Rachel and Monica can survive Rachel moving out, we think Jen and Courtney will be juuust fine. (Photo via Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty)

10. Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz: Another pair of pals that knew each other way back when, Drew and Cam ran in similar circles during their teenage years. They’ve practically grown up together, and now the actresses have skydived together, as Drew hilariously depicts in her novel, Wildflower, and made movies (helllooooo Charlie’s Angels!) side-by-side. (Photo via Chris Jackson/Getty)

11. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler: Friends long before they were famous, these two started what would become their lifelong journey together back in Chicago at ImprovOlympic. It was Tina who got Amy onto SNL, as she shares in her book, Yes Please. From there, these gals went on to rule the world, co-starring in Mean Girls, Baby Mama and, most recently, Sisters, as well as performing SNL‘s weekend update and co-hosting the Golden Globes not once, not twice but three times. That’s staying power, alright! (Photo via Stephen Lovekin/Getty)

12. Charlize Theron and Emily Blunt: These two are far more than just Huntsman: Winter’s War co-stars, as Charlize proved when she threw Emily Blunt an epic baby shower over Memorial Day weekend. Emily’s no slouch in the supportive department, either: She was seen celebrating the actress’s 40th birthday with her back in August. (Photo via Kevin Winter/Getty)

No matter what kind of day you're having, Marissa Cooper's having a worse one. Mischa Barton's The O.C. character went through the ringer during the first three seasons of the teen drama (remember how she overdosed in Tijuana...and also saw her parents post-hookup after their divorce?).

And during her time on The O.C., Mischa Barton struggled with drug and alcohol abuse. She was arrested for a DUI in 2007 and eventually received involuntary psychiatric hospitalization in 2009 after allegedly threatening to end her own life. And in a new interview, Peter Gallagher (who played Sandy Cohen on the show) says he's "just so grateful" for "the fact that she’s still alive."

  • Mischa Barton starred alongside Peter Gallagher in The O.C. from 2003-2006.
  • The actress has revealed the "trauma" of being a star at that point in her life.
  • Peter recently opened up about how he's thankful "she’s still alive."

The O.C. follows Ryan Atwood, who moves in with the Cohens after getting kicked out of his mom's house, and starts a relationship with Marissa shortly after. While Peter Gallagher played Adam Brody's TV dad instead of Mischa's, Sandy was a definitely father figure for Marissa, and it seems like Peter felt that same responsibility off camera.

"I’ve always felt very protective of her," Peter told The Independent. "First fame is toxic. First fame can kill you. She was 16 years old when she started working with us, so just the fact that she’s still alive, I’m just so grateful."

“You can go to therapy every day for the rest of your life,” Mischa said in a 2023 interview with The Sunday Times. “There’s just a certain amount of trauma [from] all that I went through, particularly in my early twenties, that just doesn’t go away overnight.”

Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage revealed that season 1 overdose not only served as a cliffhanger, but gave “network executives an escape hatch on a performer they had been wary about” (via People). But Mischa Barton got her big break, becoming "how people knew the show," and (thankfully) Marissa recovered — only to die after a car crash in season 3.

As hard as that season 3 ending is to watch, Mischa did have the opportunity to watch it with Rachel Bilson and Melinda Clarke for the first time on their rewatch podcast. "It needed to be a thing, after everything she's been through, but if it's here I'll watch it with you," Mischa says.

"I couldn't do it, Mischa, I couldn't do it," Rachel adds. "But I'm going to do it if you're going to do it."

Mischa says even though being written off the show "was a little bit of a bummer," it wasn't necessarily a surprise. "The character was just doing too much," she told Vanity Fairin 2023. "And I think they ran out of places for her to go. It was not the best thing in the world, [but] there wasn’t much you could do at that point. It was whether she could sail off into the sunset, or die. At that point, I guess it’s better to have the more dramatic ending.”

Former Disney Channel star Dylan Sprouse and model Barbara Palvin are certainly living the sweet life after tying the knot in Palvin's native Hungary. The couple, who have been together for nearly five years, have always been pretty low-key — except for the occasional and undeniably adorable Instagram post (and a stunning wedding!). We are simply ~obsessed~ with this celebrity couple, especially after they pulled out all the stops for their couple's Halloween costume. Keep scrolling to see some of their best moments :').

For Halloween Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin stunned as the Phantom and Christine from Phantom of the Opera. Dylan wore a mask and a black cape, while Barbara wore a beautiful white dress. While the costume is obviously a nod to the musical, it also totally reminds us of their day as bride and groom.

"In Sleep He Sang to Me," Barbara said in a post, quoting the musical's titular number. "@dylansprouse my forever Phantom."

Who did Dylan Sprouse marry?

On the couple's wedding day (July 15, 2023), Barbara wore a Vivienne Westwood wedding gown to celebrate her Hungarian nuptials, bringing together their nearest and dearest for an intimate(-ish) celebration. Barbara and Dylan tied the knot on her parent's property, which conveniently doubles as an event venue, with plans to host an larger wedding in California in the fall.

"This past weekend was supposed to be an intimate event, but we ended up having 115 guests in the end because there are a lot of people we care about, and we wanted them all to be there," Barbara told Vogue.

When did Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin get engaged?

Barbara Palvin on Instagram: "♥️"

After months of speculation surrounding the couple's engagement, Dylan and Barbara confirmed their engagement in conversation with Sprouse's twin brother, actor Cole Sprouse, for V Magazine in June, sharing that they got engaged last September.

"We didn't necessarily feel the need to be fully transparent with the public about that aspect of our engagement," Dylan said. "What we wanted to do with Stephen [Gan, V editor-in-chief] and the V team is make something that was kind of tongue-in-cheek about the nature of private versus public. We're playing with the idea of perception."

Barbara noted that the lovebirds wanted to announce the news "on our time," adding, "When some people leaked the information that we got engaged, our PR team was like, 'Hey, so you guys should do maybe a post about it or talk to this magazine or talk to that magazine…' That really annoyed me because I knew we were building this story up. So, I'm very happy that we ended up doing it our way."

According to People, the couple met back in 2017 after a party when the Suite Life On Deck star slid into the model’s DMs (and as they say, the rest is history). The duo made their relationship Instagram official back in 2018 with Barbara’s sweet birthday tribute for Dylan’s 26th birthday.

Let’s be real here for a second though, we all knew they were endgame the minute Dylan went above and beyond to support Barbara at the Victoria Secret Fashion Show that same year (remember this viral video?). Three days after the fashion show, the Hungarian model told Vogue Australia that she hadn’t had a boyfriend in six years, but had now found “the perfect guy” in Dylan (we aren’t crying, you are).

How old are Barbara Palvin and Dylan Sprouse?

Barbara Palvin was born on October 8, 1993, making her 31 years old. Dylan Sprouse was born on August 4, 1992, meaning he's 32 years old. So there's only a one-year age gap between them!
