Dina's Dirt for June 24, 2025

Kristin Chenoweth is a well-known and highly regarded actor and a singer, with decades of Broadway experience under her belt, including "Wicked," so it's interesting to see so many people criticizing her after her rendition of "The Star Spangled Banner" at Sunday night's NBA final Game 7. Kristin seemed to deliver a solid anthem, but you can't please all the people all the time, and it was mostly the high note at the end people complained about.

Brad Pitt got real honest and candid about hitting rock bottom and finding a way forward. On the "Armchair Expert" podcast, he told Dax Shepard that after his split from Angelina Jolie, "I was pretty much on my back, on my knees. I needed to wake the [ ] up." He talked about his experience with Alcoholics Anonymous as "really special" and said seeing "men sharing their experiences" with "a lot of humor" helped him grow. Though he once called it "really freeing" to open up, Brad also revealed that AA scolded him, reminding him, "It's anonymous." He said the experience helped him take "responsibility" and "be better."

Nick Cannon says he's probably "done" having children after fathering 12 kids with six different women. Part of the reason may be that he can't remember all his kids. On "The Really Good Podcast with Bobbi Althoff," he tried to list all his children's names, but forgot two - Beautiful and Halo. Hey, we've all called our kids by other names at some point, but I don't think any of us have ever forgotten they exist.
