Surprising times celebrities revealed their friends' secrets

There have been a few awkward moments when even media-trained celebrities accidentally spilled the beans about their friends’ secrets.

Here are some of the most notable ones:

Britney Spears & Zoe Saldana

Britney announced that her former Crossroads co-star was expecting two little ones during a 2014 Entertainment Tonight interview.

“Who knows? That’s a very good idea. But she’s pregnant with twins right now. So I’m sure she’s got a huge future ahead of her,” she said when asked if she and Zoe would ever team up again for a project.

In an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, Zoe confirmed that the Toxic songstress had been the first one to spill the secret, adding that it was too innocent of her and she never thought of holding her accountable for anything.

“I was shocked because we weren’t ready to sort of share that but it was Britney so it was okay,” Zoe stated.

T-Pain, FKA twigs & Robert Pattinson

In a 2015 interview with Vulture, the rapper accidentally had a major slip of the tongue when he announced FKA twigs and Robert were planning to marry.

When asked if FKA twigs would be featured on his new album, T-Pain replied, "But she’s on tour so much, and anytime I call her, she’s in a different place. And she’s engaged now, so that’s about to be a whole other thing.”

“Yeah, to ol’ Patty [Robert Pattinson]. I don’t know if she wanted anybody to know that …” he continued.

Jack Black & Angelina Jolie

Jack confirmed that his Kung Fu Panda co-star was pregnant with twins during a joint interview in 2008.

“You’re going to have as many as The Brady Bunch, when you have these, right?” Jack joked.

“Well, Jack’s just confirmed [we’re having twins],” Angelina said with a laugh.

Oprah Winfrey & Mindy Kaling

Oprah confirmed Mindy’s pregnancy in July 2017 when Mindy told her she was expecting her first child during a press line for their film, A Wrinkle in Time.

Oprah then passed on the information to People magazine, saying she was shocked when she learned that Mindy was already five months pregnant at the time.

However, The Mindy Project actress wasn’t too bothered by how her baby secret was revealed.

“She did announce it,” Mindy said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, adding, “If anyone is going to announce big news about your private life, Oprah Winfrey is the person. You can’t complain that much about it.”
