Looking for a little inspo on how to get that friend — and get them good — this April Fools' Day? Well, you're in luck. We’ve curated the most hilarious, shocking, crazy, and even downright mean pranks that celebrities have pulled off on each other. Think you could go through with gift wrapping a pal’s car or hacking their social media accounts? Then read on for a hot mess of crazy stories that these stars have lived to tell.

The world stopped spinning Sunday night as the producers of La La Land suddenly halted their acceptance speeches for Best Picture at the 89th Academy Awards. Why? Well, they weren’t the rightful winners—the Oscar was meant to go to Moonlight. So, how did such a huge mistake occur on live TV and how do all the players involved recover from such an unprecedented glitch?

If you didn’t make it up to the very end of the Oscars last night, then you missed out on what was the most insane moment in the history of the awards show. After some obvious confusion and uncertainty—Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway announced La La Land as the Best Picture winner. Except the actual winner was Moonlight. After some scuffling on stage, the shocked producers of Moonlight took their statue from the even more shocked producers of La La Land.

Let’s talk about 16-year-old Auli’i Cravalho, because if you didn’t know her name yesterday, you most certainly know it—and won’t soon forget it—today.

Let's be honest: The actual Academy Awards always end up going on too long and are sometimes more boring than fun. The real crazy, OMG-worthy moments always go down on the red carpet. From regrettable fashion choices to drunken (and even high) celebrities, we’re looking back at all the insanity from years past. And, it’s getting us super excited for what’s to come at the 2017 Oscars show on Sunday night.

The road to the Oscars is paved with lots of unglamorous, not-quite-red-carpet moments that many of the nominees would rather forget. But we think they should be proud of how far they’ve come to get this close to Oscar gold. With the 2017 Academy Awards coming up on February 26, we’re looking back fondly and paying homage to what the lives of 10 nominees were like before they became big stars.

Sure, you can do the usual Oscars pool with your friends and put in your two cents over who you think will win — and who you’re positive will get snubbed. But the Oscars are all about surprises, so why not wow your crew with some cold hard facts? The Best Picture nominees are an impressive bunch of films — some based on true stories, others designed to make our jaws drop with their utter creativity.

We love when our favorite celebrities launch their own clothing lines—but when they take things up a notch and open their own boutique? There’s nothing more personal and intimate. It’s their chance to curate the clothing, accessories, and even home goods that they would buy for themselves and then share it with the world under one roof. Here are eight of our favorite celebrity owned boutiques that are definitely worth the trip!

Do you ever find yourself reading about the love life of say, Khloé Kardashian, and get déjà vu? Certain stars seem to date the same “type” over and over again—even if they keep getting burned. While so many celebs want to go against type in their professional projects, they just can’t help but stick with what they know in their love lives. Here’s a look at some of the most notorious stars and the types they can’t stay away from:

Since they started dating, Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna have been a controversial couple that have weathered public fights and uncertainty about the future throughout their relationship.

Do you ever have those days where you wish you could just start over and be somebody totally different? We love that some celebrities — even with their glamorous lives and millions of adoring fans — still want to create alter egos.
Some do it to push boundaries, others do it because it’s a fun way to keep fans on their toes, and others just have lives so big, well, they needed two (or more!).

We live in a world where we think we know everything about our favorite celebs. Reality shows, talk shows, social media — all of it lets us glimpse into their private lives and feel like we’re in the know about whom they’re dating, where they’re eating, and what they’re wearing. But are they really sharing everything? We went deep and discovered that some of the biggest stars have been holding out on us.

We’re all still reeling over the news that Kim Kardashian West was robbed at gunpoint in her Paris apartment over the weekend. But as more details emerge about her terrifying ordeal, we’re finding ourselves with more questions than answers, one of them being: where was her bodyguard, Pascal Duvier?

Dove Cameron slayed it on NBC’s Hairspray Live as mean girl Amber Von Tussle masquerading as one of the “Nicest Kids in Town.” She showed the world that she’s the ultimate triple threat — an actor, dancer, and singer — from the moment she stepped on stage in her big bouffant, delivering those zingy one liners to rival, Tracy Turnblad. If you looked close, you could see the 20-year-old’s starpower literally rise to another stratosphere.

From New York to Beverly Hills, we can’t get enough of the Real Housewives—and it's not only the never-ending drama that keeps us coming back. From perfect hair to enviable outfits and handbags fit for a princess, the ladies all know a thing or two about style. Here’s a rundown of all the 'wives who’ve channeled their signature styles into fashion lines of their own, so you can channel their looks yourself.
