2026 has taken a ton of beloved celebrities from us, from Catherine O'Hara's passing to Eric Dane's death. The latest of these was the death of Patrick Muldoon at age 57, a performer known for his work on soap operas as well as the sci-fi classic Starship Troopers. The late actor famously had a relationship with his co-star Denise Richards for five years in the '90s, and she's reportedly "unconsolable" after his death. Let's break it down.

Denise Richards' personal life has made plenty of headlines over the years, from her relationship with Charlie Sheen to her current legal battle with husband Aaron Cyphers. While the latter situation is still unfolding, the actress/reality TV personality is apparently reeling from Muldoon's passing. An anonymous insider spoke to The Daily Mail about her alleged state of mind, being quoted saying:

Talk about a tragedy. While Richards' romantic life has been somewhat dramatic over the years, it sounds like she and Patrick Muldoon have remained on good terms over the decades since their split. They even reunited as recently as March, being photographed together at the Saturn Awards. So while they haven't been a couple for a long time, it sounds like there was still a ton of love and mutual respect between the two Starship Troopers stars.

Denise Richards has shown her vulnerability on shows like The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (streaming with a Peacock subscription), so there are likely plenty of fans who are thinking about her during this difficult time. The same anonymous insider spoke more about how she's coping, offering:

Patrick Muldoon and Denise Richards initially met in an acting class, but their relationship reportedly reached a new level when starring together in Starship Troopers (which may be getting a reboot). The pair played pilots Zander Barcalow and Carmen Ibanez, who enlist to help battle the terrifying aliens known as the Arachnids. The 1997 movie has grown into a cult classic in the decades that have passed since its release, and it began a franchise that's still talked about today.

Plenty of tributes have started rolling in for Muldoon, although this account of Denise Richards' feelings are touching... especially in the midst of other personal struggles she's having.

Our thoughts are with Patrick Muldoon's loved ones during this difficult time. The late actor has two posthumous projects coming on the 2026 movie release list and beyond, so fans can still see his talents at work.

As of late, Denise Richards and her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers, have been tied up in legal matters. Back in July, Phypers (53) filed for divorce from Richards (54) after nearly seven years of marriage. Richards was eventually granted a restraining order against her spouse, who she accused of abusive behavior. Since then, Phypers has also leveled claims against his wife, making allegations involving addiction and more. Richards and Phypers reunited in court this week, where the former made additional claims.

Denise Richards and Aaron Phypers, who tied the knot in 2018, met in court this week for a hearing related to the temporary restraining order the former was issued, per People. The hearing also reportedly contended with Phypers surrendering her firearms. Richards reportedly detailed several purported instances in which Phypers would threaten her with violence. The Real Housewives alum even went as far as to allege that her spouse tried to kill her:

When Richards initially made the claims against Phypers, a few photos also surfaced, and those pictures showed her with a black eye. In addition to making claims about physical abuse, the media personality has also alleged that Phypers was verbally abusive towards her. Richards shared more alleged details about her domestic dynamics with her husband, as she specifically recalled one supposed encounter that occurred shortly after she’d had cosmetic surgery:

In the time since Phypers filed for divorce, insiders have dropped claims about the “toxic” nature of his relationship with Richards. Sources alleged that the couple had “been having trouble for some time” and that by the time of the divorce filing, “all they were doing was fighting.” When it came to the filing, what allegedly served as the straw that broke the camel’s back was an argument, during which both Richards and Phypers “basically were like ‘fuck you.’” Richards also had this to say about their issues amid the hearing:

Prior to the hearing, Aaron Phypers accused Denise Richards of being untruthful, as he claimed she “conjured up” false allegations against him. Phypers also alleged that Richards has battled substance abuse and even “struggled with an addiction to Vicodin.” Additionally, Phypers claimed he “witnessed her pass out from substances — putting herself and others in danger, including while driving with our daughter” (14-year old Eloise).

This isn’t the first highly publicized divorce that Denise Richards has been involved in, as she was previously engaged in proceedings with former spouse, Charlie Sheen (who she’s now friendly with). It remains to be seen whether the divorce between Richards – who’s since begun filming RHOBH again – and Aaron Phypers is as drawn out as her first divorce.

Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards have seen their share of ups and downs over the years. The two stars – who were married from 2002 to 2006 – notably experienced a number of relationship issues, which ultimately led to their breakup. More recently, it would appear that the two are on somewhat better terms, and Richards and Sheen even just reunited on the red carpet for the release of the latter’s docuseries. So, given this positive energy, could the two reconcile? Well, sources are sharing thoughts on the notion of a reconciliation.

As of this writing, neither Denise Richards (54) nor Charlie Sheen (60) have confirmed or denied any kind of romantic relationship developing between them. Hollywood insider Rob Shuter, however, recently spoke to a confident, though, who suggests that there are indeed some sparks being ignited. Apparently, Sheen and Richards have allegedly been spending a significant amount of time together as of late:

Years ago, Sheen and Richards’ marriage ultimately took a negative turn due to the former’s reported issues with drugs and alcohol. Richards also accused Sheen of threatening violence against her and, eventually, she filed for divorce in 2005. Even after their split was finalized in 2006, though, Sheen and Richards engaged in a lengthy custody battle over their two daughters, Sami and Lola. In the years since the legal and marital drama, both Richards and Sheen have shared positive thoughts about each other.

More recently, purported friends of the Good Advice co-stars claim that they’re currently “taking it slow.” Despite that, per a red carpet insider, it was hard to deny the “chemistry” that the two stars had when they appeared in public together days ago. As for what’s reportedly drawing Richards back to her ex-husband, a source says she's taken by the person he’s become:

The past several years have seen Charlie Sheen maintain sobriety and overcome drug addiction. Sheen has also been raising twin sons Max and Bob while his other ex-wife, Brooke Mueller, has reportedly been dealing with personal issues. Sheen has also continued to take on work as an actor, with one of his biggest gigs in recent years being the sitcom Bookie, which reunited him with Chuck Lorre of Two and a Half Men.

Denise Richards, meanwhile, has recently been contending with more reported marriage issues. Earlier this summer, Aaron Phypers, Richards’ husband, filed for divorce from her, citing “irreconcilable differences.” Richards was later granted a restraining order from Phypers, who she accused of committing domestic violence on multiple occasions. Phypers denied the claims and, in turn, he accused Richards of being addicted to Vicodin and being under the influence of drugs while driving with their daughter, Eloise, in the car.

While the Real Housewives alum sorts through her legal issues with Aaron Phypers, though, reports seem to point to her, at the very least, being on solid footing with Charlie Sheen. Richards and Sheen may have had their issues but, in several cases during the past several years, they’ve seemingly had each other’s backs. Still, it remains to be seen whether that cordial dynamic will actually blossom into another full-blown romance for the two exes.

See Richards and Sheen share insight into their relationship and more in the two-part docuseries aka Charlie Sheen. The doc will be available for Netflix subscription holders starting on September 10.

When it comes to messy celebrity relationships, Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards have definitely seen their share of tough times. When their four-year marriage ended in 2006, the divorce played out in the tabloids but was apparently “way worse” behind the scenes. Somehow they’ve since recovered from the custody battles, social media attacks and more, and on Thursday, they even walked the red carpet together (and posed for photos!) as Sheen’s docuseries hits the 2025 TV schedule.

One of Netflix’s upcoming releases is aka Charlie Sheen, a two-part documentary on the rise, fall and recovery of the Two and a Half Men star. The project had its premiere in Los Angeles this week ahead of its September 10 drop, and Denise Richards not only attended the event to support her ex-husband, but she walked the red carpet with him for the first time in nearly 20 years. Take a look for yourself:

Seeing these two happy together is such a blast from the past, and they both look fantastic. Charlie Sheen sported a black suit jacket with a subtle tartan pattern over a white button-down shirt and blue jeans. For her part, Denise Richards matched him in black, donning a sequined crop top and flared satin pants. She accessorized with a diamond cross necklace.

The exes — who are parents to daughters Sami, 21, and Lola, 20 — even shared a hug in front of the cameras, with Charlie Sheen smiling sweetly:

Denise Richards was one of many celebs to take part in aka Charlie Sheen, in which apparently no topic is off-limits regarding her ex-husband’s past. The trailer for the documentary (which will be available to those with a Netflix subscription) shows the former Bond girl saying that, “When things started to change, it was quick.” Presumably, she’s talking about his addiction struggles, because their daughter Lola is also shown commenting on the issue. (Sheen got sober in 2017.)

The two-part series will also discuss Charlie Sheen’s tumultuous exit from Two and a Half Men. Jon Cryer, who has spoken openly about his relationship with Sheen and how his addiction affected their CBS sitcom, is also interviewed in the documentary.

In fact, a number of people who worked with the Major League star and witnessed his struggles will be featured on aka Charlie Sheen, including his third ex-wife, Brooke Mueller, Sean Penn, Chris Tucker, Chuck Lorre — whose longtime feud with Sheen ended in 2023 — his brother Ramon Estevez and even his former drug dealer. Check out the trailer below:

Despite everyone's participation in the doc, I certainly didn't expect to see Denise Richards by her ex's side for the premiere. But while this was their first red carpet together in two decades, Charlie Sheen did appear on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum’s Bravo series Denise Richards & Her Wild Things earlier this year, where they had lunch with Lola.

We don’t know yet if he’ll talk about the secret charitable donations he’s made or his knee-jerk reaction to Denise Richards and their daughter Sami joining OnlyFans, but we don’t have long to wait to see what all is divulged. The two-part series aka Charlie Sheen premieres Wednesday, September 10, on Netflix.

The latest chapter in Denise Richards’ ongoing divorce drama is not one that I would have seen coming, and technically isn’t so directly involved with her marital split from Aaron Phypers, though it no doubt came up during conversations. Amidst a month that saw Richards’ restraining order filing get a response from Phypers that included child endangerment allegations, it appears as if the financially successful OnlyFans model is heading back to her former TV stomping grounds at Bravo for the latest season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

In what will presumably be her latest return to the franchise, Richards was seen filming scenes for at least one future Real Housewives episode during a Saturday night out in Los Angeles on August 2, per TMZ. Specifically passersby clocked her, Sutton Stracke and her past cast rival Erika Jayne having drinks at the Mexican restaurant Madre, and witnessed her making a noteworthy arrival for the cameras.

The outlet notes their source claims the three women did indeed get into discussions about Richards’ reportedly ‘toxic’ relationship with, divorce from, Phypers, though further details were not disclosed. It can be assumed that this marks Richards’ only appearance during the season, but that element also remains unclear, as her split may be the kind of game-changing life event that sparks her to jump back into reality TV with both feet. But if nothing else, it sounds like fans will get to watch at least one dishy, tea-spilling convo between the series alum and its current stars.

Richards’ most recent unscripted project, Bravo’s Denise & Her Wild Things, was confirmed in July to not be returning to Bravo, and that it was only ever intended to enjoy a one-season limited run. At the time, it was noted that the former Bond girl could indeed make a return to Real Housewives, and less than a month later, that news was locked in as fact. Richards previously served as a guest star in Season 5, came back as a series regular in Season 10, and then popped back in as a guest star in Season 13.

Fans Are (Mostly) Pumped To See Denise Richards Returning To RHOBH

To be expected, the Real Housewives fandom was not exactly in full agreement that Richards' franchise future is a good thing, but there were more than enough positive reactions to counteract all of the negativity. Or at least most of the general negativity. This simple-but-says-it-all post serves as a fine example.

Of course, that's entirely too much brevity for some Real Housewives fans, and others had a bit more to say in terms of celebrating the news on X amidst other behind-the-scenes updates for the upcoming season.

• I knew that Denise would come back to film a scene or two for #RHOBH! She definitely looks incredible, lovelies! #RHOBH #DeniseRichards - @Summie_books
• i wonder if she’s joining the cast midway through he season or just a guest appearance… them filming her walking in makes me think something different - @Eternalsunslut
• I hope she drags him, I wanna hear the deets! - @polimich85
• Will she wear a jacket this season? Will it be right side up? 🔍 - @Jessicalala
• That pink outfit is so Regjna George coded LOL - @Housewivesss
• This is exactly what the season needed! Denise is coming to give us some iconic scenes - @Josephrsyd94

Those who may not have watched Denise & Her Wild Things were shocked to see Richards and Erika Jayne in close quarters without tempers flaring destructively. Here are a few of those reactions:

• Omg!!! I love this. Since when are Erika and Denise fine?? She should come back as a friend or something. - @s46653
• With Erika AND Sutton is WILDDDD - @Dave0v0
• Makes sense to me but Sutton and Erika lol #RHOBH - @Tanzanian4real
• If you were to tell me a couple years ago that Erika, Sutton and DENISE were meeting up together for dinner I’d laugh in your face. They are scrambling. - @JR_Cargile

While it'll welcome Richards back in some way, Season 15 will be missing Garcelle Beauvais, who announced her exit back in March 2025. Helping to fill that void will be fashion designer Rachel Zoe, who headed up her own reality series, The Rachel Zoe Project, which ran for five seasons from 2008-2013. Other casting changes, as well as clarifying updates on Denise Richards’ role in the new season, will hopefully go public in the near future.

It’s unclear when The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 15 will hit the 2025 TV schedule, but stay tuned.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills vet Denise RIchards made a limited return to the franchise in 2024 before expanding her reality TV wings on the 2025 TV schedule with her Wild Things series for Bravo and her short-lived run on Special Forces: World's Toughest Test. Unfortunately, her life has been just as drama-filled off-screen on the tumultuous road to divorcing her husband of nearly seven years, Aaron Phypers, who responded tor her recent restraining order filing with bombshell allegations of substance abuse and endangering their daughter.

The latest chapter in Richards' marital story, which previously revolved around her up-and-down relationship with ex Charlie Sheen, took off earlier in July 2025 when Phypers filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. Soon after, it wasn’t just insider sources sharing personal details, with both parties going public themselves with major accusations.

Denise Richards Makes Various Physical Abuse Allegations In Successful Restraining Order Filing

L:ess than two weeks after the divorce paperwork was filed, Denise Richards made a legal request (on July 16) for a restraining order against Aaron Phypers. Within the filing, she details an assortment of allegations, including:

Elsewhere in the paperwork, Richards accuses Phyper of harming her duing several specific instances during the first half of 2025, with a blow-up fight on July 4 being a catalyst for the split. Here are some of the other controversial allegations stated in the filing (via US Weekly):

• "“Aaron has caused me at least three concussions."
• "Aaron repeatedly got within two inches of my face and screamed at me degrading profanities, including calling me a ‘cunt whore’ and a ‘piece of shit.'"
• "Aaron chased me and grabbed both of my arms forcefully and pushed me and dragged me to the ground. I landed on the stairs, causing immense pain."
• "While I was asleep and without my permission, Aaron went into my settings on my laptop and through my iCloud account synched my iMessages (texts) to my laptop and downloaded everything from my iCloud (included my private text messages) onto my laptop and then took pictures of my text messages (which were then on my laptop)."
• "Later, while I was on the toilet peeing, Aaron smashed me on the top of my head with the palm of his hand while screaming at me, ‘Give me your fucking phone.'"

Within the filing, Denise Richards also included two photographs of herself with her left eye bruised and blackened. She claimed that Aaron Phypers caused that injury by striking her in the face on January 17.

Despite Phypers denying all of the claims made in the restraining order request, the court did indeed grant Richards the order for now, though a court hearing later in July could affect that ruling.

Aaron Phypers Claims Richards 'Conjured Up' Untrue Allegations And Makes His Own Accusations

In a letter allegedly written by Phypers to share with family members and friends, which was obtained by Page Six, Phypers lays out a variety of troublesome accusations about Richards' behavior, accusing her of various forms substance abuse. As he put it:

Phypers also brings their daughter up again in an attempt to spin one of Richards' abuse claims by saying that she was the one who got out of line on July 4, and that she destroyed his phone.

It's unclear how Phypers would have received the text if his phone was destroyed, nor why he was the one who filed for divorce if she was the one who said she'd do it. In any case, he states that he's never physically attacked or harmed Richards, and then says:

He apparently didn't go into detail about how Richards went about physically attacking their daughter. He did claim to have found an Airtab on his car, suggesting he was being followed or tracked, and says that his elderly parents have been "frightened and mistreated" because they have been supportive of their son throughout the relationship.

As for the image of Denise Richards sporting a black eye, Phypers claims that it was a photo taken in winter 2022, and that she drunkenly slipped and hit her face on the steps of his then-open medical clinic Q360, which has since been closed.

At the time of writing, Richards hasn't yet offered up a rebuttal to everything her ex reportedly said in his letter to others in his life .But if and when it happens, she likely won't be pulling any metaphorical punches.

Celebrity divorces have a way of capturing the public's attention, just look at Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. The latest split making headlines is Denise Richards' divorce from Aaron Phypers, and things are really heating up with the ongoing legal battle. Case in point: she was recently granted a temporary restraining order from Phypers as their lawyers get to work. Let's break it all down.

An insider claimed that Richards and Phypers were constantly fighting, and it looks like those conflicts might have gotten physical. TMZ reported that the RHOBH star was granted a restraining order after accusing her ex of physical and verbal abuse. There are even some photos to accompany these allegations, which show Richards with a black eye. You can see the image below, courtesy of the outlet's Instagram account:

Ouch. Per this report, Richards alleged several incident of domestic violence, with these photo helping to paint a picture of what happened between the former couple behind the scenes. She even claimed that Phypers threatened to kill her, and himself, if she went to the authorities.

This photo, and the documents, paint a very different picture from how the public was introduced to this marriage on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (which is streaming with a Peacock subscription). An excerpt from the documents from Richards claims:

The bruises shown in the above images reportedly came from a confrontation back in 2022, where Aaron Phypers was allegedly paranoid about there being listening devices in potted plants. Richards has made some serious allegations in the paperwork, and I have to assume that this is only the tip of the iceberg regarding the former couple's divorce battle.

Of course, fans will remember that this isn't the first public divorce for the former Bond girl. Richards famously was married to Charlie Sheen, with the former couple having two children together. While that was a split that plenty of people payed attention to that split, which also included allegations of physical abuse and a temporary restraining order. Since Denise an Phypers appeared on TV together, smart money says that this will be another story that the general public keeps up with as the divorce proceedings play out in court.

Professionally, Denise Richards has some exciting projects coming own the line, on the 2025 movie release list and beyond. We'll just have to see how thing shake out with her divorce from Aaron Phypers. An anonymous insider claimed she was preparing for a fight, so we'll have to see how her ex's lawyers respond to these new allegations.

The iconic actress Denise Richards has been an a movie and TV star for years now, including recent reality tv projects (which are streaming with a Peacock subscription). Most recently the former Bond girl has been making headlines for her split from Aaron Phypers, aka her husband who was featured on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. And a reported insider alleged that things were "toxic" for some time behind the scenes.

Denise Richards' divorce from Phypers put a spot light on her finances, specifically how much money she makes from OnlyFans. An anonymous insider who is reportedly close to the former couple spoke with The Daily Mail about what's been allegedly happening behind the scenes, including tons of fights from the former couple. As they claimed:

Ouch. If this insider is to be believed, this six-year marriage may have been a rocky one. Fans who watched RHOBH saw tempers flare a few times during Denise's tenure on the reality show, but this is another picture entirely. We'll just have to wait and see if either party confirms this report about fighting.

The same alleged insider also claimed that Denise Richards was the primary moneymaker of this marriage. Specifically the term "she earns he spends" was used to describe her marriage to Phypers. They also indicated that the Starship Troopers actress is expecting a long legal battle. In their words:

Ouch. After Richards' public split from Charlie Sheen, one has to assume she doesn't want to go through another public legal battle. We'll just have to see if this report is true, and if the former couple end up coming to blows in court in the future.

As previously mentioned, Richards has been keeping busy with both acting and reality TV gigs as of late. Her new show Denise Richards & Her Wild Things recently premiered, although it's unclear if it'll be getting a second season on Bravo. She also recently returned to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in a guest capacity, quickly going viral in the process. Could her split from Aaron convince her to return full-time? We can only hope.

Denise Richards' most recent reality tv ventures are streaming now on Peacock. She's also got some upcmoing acting projects on the 2025 movie release list and beyond. Only time will tell how her divorce ultimately plays out, and if these rumors about drama are true.

Years after the end of her relatively short marriage and tumultuous divorce from Two and a Half Men star Charlie Sheen, Wild Things lead Denise Richards thought she’d found the love of her life in businessman Aaron Phypers, whom she married in September 2018. However, Phypers recently filed for divorce from the OnlyFans talent (who he’d helped with her content on the NSFW site) and the court documents give some insight into how much Richards makes from the platform, along with the crazy amount of money she, allegedly, spends on food.

What Denise Richards’ Divorce Documents Say About Her OnlyFans Income And Food Spending

After over eight years together and nearly six years of married life, July 7 saw Denise Richards’ estranged husband, Aaron Phypers, file for divorce due to “irreconcilable differences.” The divorce documents, which were obtained by People, provide his accounting of not only their supposed monthly spending, but claim that the former The Bold and the Beautiful star brings in over $250,000 every month from a combination of her OnlyFans work, promotional deals/appearances and acting/TV career.

It was in the summer of 2022 that Sami Sheen, the then 18-year-old daughter of Richards and Charlie Sheen, joined OnlyFans, which led to wildly different reactions from her famous parents. Just a few days later, the one time Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star also made her debut on the platform. At the time, she charged the standard fee of $25 a month, and a look at her site confirms that that’s still the case, with options for two different bundles to save some cash.

Considering that Richards is still on the site, and did opt to post the spicier content allowed, it would seem that she’s happy with not only her work there, but how much she makes from it and has adjusted to running her site and interacting with fans through it. Speaking of the bank her ex claims she brings in monthly, let’s hope it’s accurate, because he also alleged that they spent a lot on just food every month.

According to the papers he filed (where he asked for spousal support because he claims to have "not made income" since 2024, because he "had to close down" his company at that time) Phypers also noted that he and his soon-to-be-ex-wife spent $10,000 every month on grocery shopping and household supplies, and added a whopping $15K to that food bill monthly by dining out.

Look, I completely understand that those seem like wack-a-do numbers, even when you include general home items like cleaning products, toilet paper, etc. into the mix. However, whether these numbers are accurate or not, we do know two things: food has been outrageously expensive for years and it only seems to be getting worse, and famous people don’t do much of anything cheaply.

I imagine that Richards probably has a focus on her health and eating well, so she’s likely not spending tons of cash on say, Cheetos and Ding Dongs. Organic groceries cost a premium, as does anything made for special diets like those who are gluten free, lactose intolerant or prefer foods that are minimally processed and absent from many of the chemicals present in other products.

Making those kinds of food choices at restaurants (which are likely already expensive because you know she’s probably not pulling a constant Ben Affleck and staking out her local Dunkin’ Donuts daily) is going to up the cost of things substantially, so what can I say? Thank the NSFW heavens for that OnlyFans cash.

Just like crazy gadgets and classic villains are important to James Bond movies, so-called "Bond girls" have been crucial to the franchise's success. Obviously society has changed quite a bit since Dr. No was released in 1962, and so have the roles these women have played in the adventures. They aren't just a love interest to Bond anymore, though some are, of course, nor do all of them have ridiculous names though some definitely do. Really, it's just all the women who have played important roles,  throughout the years, like the 32 on this list. 

Ursula Andress (Honey Ryder)

The O.G. Bond girl is Honey Ryder, played by Ursula Andress. Bond (Sean Connery) famously meets her as she strolls out of the ocean in a bikini on a small island owned by the titular Dr. No. It's not only one of the most iconic moments of the Bond series, it's one of the most famous in Hollywood history. 

Michelle Yeoh (Wai Lin)

Academy Award-winner Michelle Yeoh first came to Western cinema acclaim as a Bond girl. After years of success in Hong Kong, Yeoh's Hollywood breakthrough came as Wai Lin in Tomorrow Never Dies, starring Pierce Brosnan as Bond. 

Barbara Bach (Anya Amasova)

Actor Barbara Bach is famous for playing a Bond girl in one of the best Roger Moore movies. Bach, who is the wife of Ringo Starr, played a Russian spy named Anya Amasova in The Spy Who Loved Me. Bach was, in fact, the spy who loved Bond. Or Bond was the spy who loved her. Both ways work. The same movie also features one of the best henchmen in Bond history, Jaws. 

Shirley Eaton (Jill Masterson)

The third movie of the Bond franchise, Goldfinger, is pretty almost universally praised as the best of the series. It's certainly the best of the Connery era, despite what some critics claim. Shirley Eaton plays Jill Masterson who meets her demise in one of the most famous scenes in the series when Bond finds her covered in gold paint after her death. 

Tanya Roberts (Stacey Sutton)

Roger Moore's final appearance as James Bond came in 1985's A View To A Kill opposite Tanya Roberts who starred as Stacey Sutton. The late Roberts had a fairly short-lived career in the mid-80s before reviving it as a regular on That '70s Show in the late 1990s and early 2000s. She'll be forever remembered for her moments as a Bond girl. 

Carey Lowell (Pam Bouvier)

Carey Lowell is best known for her two-season run as ADA Jamie Ross on Law & Order in the '90s, but years before that, she was a Bond girl. Lowell played Pam Bouvier, a capable ex-army officer-turned-informant on the cartels Bond is chasing in the Timothy Dalton-as-Bond flick Licence To Kill. 

Teri Hatcher (Paris Carver)

In 1997 Teri Hatcher was coming off an incredibly successful run as Lois Lane in the TV show Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. She parlayed that in a role as James Bond's love interest in Tomorrow Never Dies, named Paris Carver. 

Jane Seymour (Solitaire)

In the United States, Jane Seymour is probably best known as Dr. Michaela Quinn in Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman. About 20 years early, she starred as one of the best Bond girls ever, Solitaire, in the first Roger Moore-era Bond movie, Live and Let Die. 

Léa Seydoux (Madeleine Swann)

Léa Seydoux actually starred in two James Bond movies, both featuring Daniel Craig as 007. In both Spectre and No Time To Die, she played Madeleine Swann. She also holds the distinction of being the only actress to play the mother of a James Bond child, which is revealed in the final movie of the Craig era, No Time To Die. 

Halle Berry (Giacinta "Jinx" Johnson)

Before the 21st Century, the producers of the Bond series rarely picked huge stars as Bond girls. That wasn't the case in 2002 when Halle Berry starred as Jinx Johnson in Die Another Day. Berry had just won an Academy Award and was one of the biggest stars in Hollywood when she played Jinx, who was every bit Bond's equal in all ways. 

Maud Adams (Andrea Anders And Octopussy)

Maud Adams is one of two women who have starred in two James Bond movies as Bond girls. Her first, Andrea Anders came in 1974's The Man with the Golden Gun. Her second, and larger role, came as the titular Octopussy in the movie of the same name. Adams also holds the distinction of being the only one to have the same name as the movie. Pretty cool. 

Famke Janssen (Xenia Onatopp)

While she's best known these days for playing Jean Grey/Phoenix in the X-Men movies, Famke Janssen also starred in one Bond movie, GoldenEye, as the ridiculously named assassin Xenia Onatopp. It's one of the sillier names, but the character is all business. 

Diana Rigg (Teresa di Vicenzo/Tracy Bond)

For many Brits, Diana Rigg is known for playing Emma Peel in the '60s spy show The Avengers (no relation to the MCU). For many Americans, she's best known as Olenna Tyrell on Game of Thrones. For Bond fans, she'll always be Tracy Bond, James' first wife, who he married in On Her Majesty's Secret Service, the lone film starring George Lazenby as 007. 

Gemma Arterton (Strawberry Fields)

While Quantum of Solace usually ranks pretty low overall among Bond aficionados, Gemma Arterton deserves a lot of praise for his work as Strawberry Fields. While Strawberry Fields is one of the silliest names in the canon, at least it's not an innuendo. 

Daniela Bianchi (Tatiana Romanova)

Daniela Bianchi is an Italian actress who brilliantly played a Soviet spy in From Russia With Love. Tatiana Romanova, the character Bianchi, set the standard for the capable foil to Bond, rather than a damsel in distress as Honey Ryder was in Dr. No.

Maryam D'Abo (Kara Milovy)

Timothy Dalton only got to play Bond in two films, but in one of him, he got to star opposite Maryam D'Abo, who played the classical musician Kara Milovy. The Living Daylights is, like the other Dalton movie, Licence To Kill is underrated, and along with that, D'Abo's excellent performance. 

Kim Basinger (Domino Petachi)

Okay, okay, so Never Say Never Again isn't an official James Bond movie, but it does feature one of the biggest stars to ever play a Bond girl. Kim Basinger was already a big deal when she signed on to join Sean Connery in his return as 007 in the remake of Thunderball. 

Denise Richards (Christmas Jones)

The producers of The World Is Not Enough took a lot of grief for casting Denise Richards as Dr. Christmas Jones. Critics complained that she couldn't be taken seriously as a doctor, or something. It was pure sexism because Richards was fine in the role and fit the mold of a Bond girl perfectly. Her stupid character name wasn't her fault, either. 

Eva Green (Vesper Lynd)

Vesper Lynd is one of two Bond girls who actually married the super spy. Eva Green plays Lynd in Casino Royale and like the other woman who married Bond, Tracy, in On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Lynd doesn't make it to the end of the movie. She is killed in front of Bond in Venice in one of the most tragic endings to any Bond movie. 

Grace Jones (May Day)

Without question, May Day, played by Grace Jones, in A View To A Kill is one of the most intimidating Bond girls. She's bold and built like a truck. She's a woman of few words, but she can intimidate with nothing more than a look. Grace Jones wasn't in a ton of movies over her unique career, but maybe she should have been more based on this. 

Jill St. John (Tiffany Case)

Jill St. John, who plays Tiffany Case in Diamonds Are Forever has had a long career, going back to the 1950s. In 1971, she starred alongside Sean Connery in his return to the role of 007 and she holds the distinction of being the first American Bond girl. 

Sophie Marceau (Elektra King)

Elektra King, played by Sophie Marceau, is a quintessential Bond girl. She's both Bond's lover and his enemy in The World Is Not Enough. As such, Marceau plays both vulnerable and vicious and the French actress nails both. 

Bérénice Marlohe (Sévérine)

Skyfall is consistently ranked as one of the fans' favorites and that's in no small part to Bérénice Marlohe, who plays Sévérine. Marlohe hasn't starred in many English-language films, in fact, Skyfall was her first, but you'd never know if from the French actor's performance in the Bond universe. 

Mie Hamna (Kissy Suzuki)

Let's be honest, Kissy Suzuki has to be the silliest name ever. It's just ridiculous. That doesn't mean that actress Mie Hamna's performance as the Japanese ninja/spy in You Only Live Twice was silly. The Japanese actress didn't speak much English, but she left an impression on moviegoers, despite her lines being overdubbed. 

Izabella Scorupco (Natalya Simonova)

Natalya Simonova, played by Polish actress Izabella Scorupco, is a stereotypical Bond girl who is a bit of a damsel in distress but turns out to be very capable when teamed with Bond. Scorupco. The multi-talent Scorupco is also a singer and even hosted one season of Sweden's version of Top Model. 

Ana De Armas (Palona)

We couldn't have this list without Ana de Armas, but she doesn't play a typical Bond girl. The character, Palona, is not Bond's lover, nor is she his enemy. She's his equal in many ways, as a green CIA agent sent to help Bond. De Armas is pretty darn awesome in the role, fighting side-by-side with 007. Of course, even before starring here, she was already a pretty big star. 

Carole Bouquet (Melina Havelock)

At the end of The Spy Who Loved Me, the words "James Bond Will Return in For Your Eyes Only, but after the success of Star Wars, the producers of the franchise pivoted and made Moonraker instead to add some sci-fi to the series. Actress Carole Bouquet auditioned to be the Bond girl in that movie but lost out on the part. Luckily, she landed the role of Bond's ally, Melina Havelock, in For Your Eyes Only when it was finally made. 

Lois Chiles (Holly Goodhead)

Moonraker is... not James Bonds' finest hour, but it's not that bad either. One thing that no one can argue, Dr. Holly Goodhead is the dumbest name in the history of the franchise. Sure, there's always been some sophomoric humor to Bond girl names, but actor Lois Chiles has the unfortunate luck of starring as the character with this over-the-top name. 

Claudine Auger (Domino Derval)

French actress and model Claudine Auger played one of the most famous Bond girls in Thunderball. Her sultry performance set a new standard for the archetype. Auger, who played Domino in the movie, wasn't in a lot of movies American audiences would recognize, but she did represent her native France in the Miss World pageant in the 1950s. 

Lana Wood (Plenty O'Toole)

While she's in the running for the silliest name, Plenty O'Toole doesn't have plenty of screen time, lasting only a few minutes before being thrown out of a window of Bond's hotel room in Diamonds Are Forever. She's played by Lana Wood, sister of the late Natalie Wood. 

Britt Ekland (Mary Goodnight)

Britt Ekland, who was once married to Peter Sellers, stars as Mary Goodnight in The Man With The Golden Gun. Let's be honest here, the writers of the movie were not kind to the character as the British agent isn't a very smart or capable spy. That's on the writers, not Ekland. 

Cassandra Harris (Countess Lisl von Schlaf)

Australian actress Cassandra Harris had an interesting and tragic life. When she starred as Lisl von Schlaf in For Your Eyes Only, he husband in real life was none other than Pierce Brosnan. How's that for meta? Sadly, Harris died of ovarian cancer at just age 43 in 1991. Her mother AND her daughter both died of the same disease in their 40s as well. 

The Real Housewives franchise has become a behemoth force in the entertainment industry, with a number of cities airing new episodes on Bravo (and streaming with a Peacock subscription). One of the shows that's currently putting out new episodes is The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, which has a pretty good season thus far. And Bravo boss Andy Cohen recently weighed in on Denise Richards and Erika Jayne's beef on the show.

Back in December Denise Richards returned to RHOBH and went viral for her behavior at Kyle's weed-infused dinner party. During that event she confronted Erika Jayne about thinks that happened years ago, and that fight continued in one of the most recent episodes, with the "Expensive To Be Me" singer going HAM and bringing Richards' OnlyFans. Cohen was asked by Life and Style about that conflict, and if he took someone's side. He responded, offering:

There you have it. It's probably in Andy Cohen's best to not take sides during Housewives fights, especially since alliances and friendship are always changing. But that confrontation between Erika and Denise was pretty brutal, with the latter looking dumbfounded by Jayne's response.

While Erika Jayne made headlines for her legal issues, that's mostly in the rear view during this season of RHOBH. She seems lighter in Season 13, but that changed once Denise Richards started a fight with her in front of the other women. While she gave her grace the first time, Round 2 was a brawl.

That second fight happened a few episodes ago, during Taco Tuesday at RHOBH cast member Crystal's house. Denise once again tried to bring Erika to task over a conflict from years ago, and Jayne doesn't respond well. She not only brings up Denise OnlyFans, but also the fact that Richards' daughter is also on OF. That argument lasted two episodes, and quickly went viral.

While Andy Cohen doesn't take sides, he did weigh in on how Denise's conversation with Erika ultimately went. As he put it:

Fair point. While Denise Richards started the fight, Erika Jayne was the clear winner of their verbal scuffle. While some fans took umbrage with Erika bringing Denise's daughter into it, the clip itself has definitely circulated online. We'll just have to wait and see if the former Bond Girl makes any more appearances on the reality TV series. 

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs new episodes Wednesdays on Bravo. Be sure to check out the TV premiere list to plan your next binge watch. 

The return of Denise Richards to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has been dramatic so far, to say the least, and Wednesday night's spat with co-star Erika Jayne over OnlyFans was no exception. 

Following Richards' erratic antics during last week's episode on the 2023 TV schedule — during which the Wild Things actress accused Erika of treating her badly while she was on the show but wasn't able to bring up specifics of such behavior — Jayne called Denise out for the tirade on Wednesday's episode. During the episode, which you can stream with a Peacock subscription, the reality star told Richards: 

However, when Denise started bringing up old grievances against her co-star —including that time back in Season 10 when Jayne discussed threesomes in earshot of Denise's teenage daughters Sami Sheen and Lola Rose Sheen — Jayne went for the jugular, bringing up Richards' children. 

When Richards criticized that it had been inappropriate for Jayne to have such a sex-focused conversation in front of her children, Erika cited Sami Sheen's chosen profession as an OnlyFans star as proof that they already "know about sex."

OnlyFans, of course, is an online subscription service used by content creators like musicians, fitness experts and, most predominantly, sex workers who produce pornography. Richards' now-19-year-old daughter Sami falls into the latter camp, publicly joining the service in June 2022, much to the chagrin of her famous father, Charlie Sheen. 

One week after Sami joined OnlyFans, her actress mother followed suit in solidarity and support of her daughter. Richards told Page Six about Sami's OnlyFans gig:

Erika called out Denise for being on the NSFW platform alongside her daughter, quipping during this week's episode:

Needless to say, Richards was not pleased with the line of inquiry and called Jayne's question a "f---ing low blow."

But Erika wasn't backing down as she said: 

The brutal back-and-forth went on until a "To Be Continued" marker ended the episode, promising that their vicious argument will continue into next week's edition. 

Richards first popped up in the Bravo franchise as a guest in Season 5 before officially joining the cast of RHOBH for Seasons 9 and 10, reportedly as a way to pay off the legal bills accrued in her divorce from Charlie Sheen, whom she was married to from 2002 to 2006. 

The actress left the Housewives franchise in 2020 following threesome drama with another co-star, Brandi Glanville. However, she announced that she would be returning to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for Season 13 in a guest capacity. 

After these back-to-back blowouts with Erika Jayne, though, we have to wonder if Richards won't soon be parting with the series for good. 

The Real Housewives world has been busy. In the same week that former RHOBH star Taylor Armstrong announced her departure from The Real Housewives of Orange County, fellow California housewife Denise Richards made her grand return to the Bev Hills-based Bravo series on the November 30 episode. And, boy, does her comeback have viewers talking. 

Richards has had an on-and-off-again relationship with The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, appearing as a guest back in Season 5 before becoming a full-time cast member in its ninth and tenth seasons. During her tenure, the former Bond girl was embroiled in drama with many of her fellow Beverly Hills cast members, including former RHOBH star Lisa Rinna and ex-Housewife Brandi Glanville, with whom it was rumored Richards had an affair. 

Following a three-year hiatus from the program, the actress confirmed to Variety that she would be rejoining the Cali crew in a guest capacity for Season 13 of the show (which airs Wednesday nights on Bravo and can be streamed with a Peacock subscription). 

And while many Bravo diehards cheered the return of Richards on the franchise, her behavior during Wednesday's episode confused many. The Wild Things star was attending a cannabis-infused dinner party hosted by Kyle Richards, though she opted out of partaking in any of the THC edibles on offer. However, Richards was seemingly looking to spark up a fight, quickly laying into grievances against her castmate Erika Jayne at the dinner table:

Jayne—who is no stranger to onscreen drama, though it's lately been more of the legal sort—was perplexed by the tirade and asked Richards to tell her exactly what she was upset about. Denise retorted that she'd been "very clear" before going off on several rambling tangents. Erika quipped in a confessional:

The rest of the women looked on in confusion, with several attendees—including Sutton Stracke—noting the star's apparent slurring during the conversation.

Along with that meandering dinnertime conversation, Richards' appearance on the November 30 episode saw the star breaking the fourth wall, winking directly into the camera and making odd facial expressions throughout the event. 

The behavior caught the attention of Bravo viewers, who took to social media to comment on Richards' return. One fan referenced the reality star's long feud with Lisa Rinna, posting on X (formerly known as Twitter) that the former RHOBH cast member must be "at home cackling over the shit show." 

Another said that they were experiencing "second-hand embarrassment" while watching Denise during the episode. 

Yet another posted several drawings inspired by Denise's expressions during the ep, along with an interesting caption.

However, other Beverly Hills watchers were "LIVING" for the housewife's dramatic return to the franchise. 

And another called her a "queen" for those cheeky camera winks.  

And based on that trailer for next week's episode, the Denise Richards drama is just getting started. Consider us sat!

Considering all the celebrities who had memoirs released in 2023, from John Stamos to Britney Spears to Jada Pinkett Smith, one might think that either Denise Richards or Charlie Sheen penned something autobiographical as of late, considering the resurfaced attention given to their relationship and co-parenting struggles regarding their daughters, the opinion-sparking OnlyFans content creator Sami Sheen and Lola Rose. The former RHOBH star’s latest reflection on her past came during a podcast convo with fellow Real Housewives alum Bethenny Frankel, where she revealed herself as the reason Sheen joined Two and a Half Men, which ended up having a negative effect on both his sobriety and their marriage.

During the first half of a two-part installment of Just B with Bethenney Frankel, the host and Richards essentially talked through a timeline of the Wild Things star’s courtship with Charlie Sheen, with the early years before and during their marriage being far calmer for the couple, with the actor then years into a period of sobriety. While discussing her infamous December 2004 Playboy shoot, Richards revealed that Sheen was offered to join in as the photographer, but noted that he didn’t end up going forward with it because the timing coincided with his work on the CBS sitcom. Which is when she dropped the reveal that she was the big reason why he ended up taking that project over another one. In her words: 

I can easily understand why Sheen was reportedly nervous at the time, since he'd pulled off the extremely rare Hollywood move of successfully replacing a major star deep into a TV project's run, and as great as Spin City was with Michael J. Fox at the helm, it was just as fun with the Major League star bringing different comedic vibes. And considering he landed Two and a Half Men relatively soon after the D.C. sitcom ended, it's easy to forget that his career could have gone in a vastly different direction had he turned down the Chuck Lorre series in favor of another show. He presumably wouldn't have sparked a decade-long feud with Lorre, and likely wouldn't have turned Tiger Blood into a household name, among other things.

To that end, somewhat, Denise Richards believes that Two and a Half Men was indirectly responsible for her ex-hubby’s renewed affinity for intoxication. Here’s how she put it:

Bethenny Frankel asked if Charlie Sheen was at an emotional low point just ahead of Two and a Half Men, wondering if that added to his addictive habits that followed. But Richards said he was in a really good place at that time, having been sober during his time on Spin City, but that the CBS sitcom’s mass popularity seemed to play a big part in his behavior and lifestyle going forward, including the timeline of eventual exit. She continued:

By and large, Denise Richards spoke of Charlie Sheen respectfully, and made sure to present things as her opinions, while saying she couldn't speak to his thoughts on certain matters. She also recently opened up about her parenting struggles during the years when his addictions were most troublesome.

Sheen is set to make his big TV return for Chuck Lorre's new Max series Bookie, though we probably shouldn't expect to see Richards making any appearances as she did on Two and a Half Men. But I'm still hoping, because why not?

Though they divorced all the way back in 2006, celebrity ex-spouses Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen have been connected more in headlines of late, largely surrounding their daughter Sami Sheen joining OnlyFans. The 19 year old continues to succeed on the subscription platform, as does Richards, who also joined OnlyFans solidarity-style in the aftermath of her former hubby’s initially judgmental reaction. Now, Richards has opened up about past years of navigating parenting struggles with her daughters while the Two and a Half Men vet dealt with personal issues.

In a Bustle feature putting her in the spotlight, Sami Sheen discussed some of the specific ups and downs of having her famous parents, who both also spoke about their parent-child relationships. While Richards and Sheen kept things cordial enough in the early years following their divorce — which was initially filed while the former was still pregnant with Sami — the situation apparently became far more stressful surrounding Sheen’s exit from Two and a Half Men and his unpredictable public behavior. The Real Housewives vet stated: 

Presumably zero parents’ ideal interactions with their children involve dodging admissions involving prostitutes, and Richards doesn’t seem like she would recommend the experience. It's probably not an easy conversation to have regardless of how old one's children are, especially if some of the information came from tabloids. 

In another example, Denise Richards addressed an unfortunate holiday-related memory in which Charlie Sheen’s purported unreliability led to further disappointment. Having attempted to help the girls understand their father by reading a book about addiction with them, Richards said that still only would have addressed part of the problem. As she put it:

Despite the years of stumbles and bumbles, Sami Sheen and her father have seemingly maintained a healthy relationship. In fact, he credits her moving in with him in 2021 as being a cathartic part of staving off alcohol, since it meant she witnessed him both at his darkest and brightest. 

The Major League vet is reteaming with Chuck Lorre for a new streaming comedy, Max's How to be a Bookie, many years after their sitcom-related feud. Considering Sheen specifically requested a character change that removed drug use from the equation, he appears to be fully embracing the sober life still, and likely doesn't want a repeat of all things Tiger Blood and #winning. Could we expect to see Sami Sheen joining her pops on-screen at any point? Place your bets. 

Time tends to heal most wounds, and it can also help to settle initially foul feelings, which has certainly been the case with Charlie Sheen, an actor and entertainer whose career was forever changed by a selection of rash and judgmental comments made during his hectic Two and a Half Men exit. Let’s flashback to June 2022, when the Wall Street vet shared a mostly negative reaction to daughter Sami Sheen joining the online platform OnlyFans, putting some of the onus on his ex-wife Denise Richards. He had a change of heart soon after, and has now reflected on that turn of events 18 months after it all went down.

Sami Sheen opened up about her life as an OnlyFans model, and her acceptance of being a sex worker, for a Bustle profile in which she admitted to not knowing very much about her father’s publicized flings with sex workers. (In her words: “My mom kept me very shielded my whole life.”) But despite his own personal interests, her famous father’s first instinct wasn’t “heavy support” upon hearing the news, and he puts some of that on parental instincts. Here’s how he explained it: 

Many fathers would have the same knee-jerk reaction to hearing about their daughter making such a career choice, but without the worry that those thoughts will make news headlines the way that Charlie Sheen's did. His concern was seemingly as much about OnlyFans as a source of employment as it was about how she would be seen as an employee. The possibility of her charging fans for pictures and videos of her scantily clad body was presumably also a factor, but he was hopefully able to change his purview after seeing that Sami herself was comfortable with and confident in the platform.

As Sheen put it, it came down to the trust and confidence in her ability to make good decisions for herself, as opposed to taking issues with what she specifically set out to do. If she wanted to sell furniture for a living, and wanted to work with the shadiest furniture retailer on the planet, her pops might have had a similarly anxious response. Or maybe not.

Sheen only mentioned Denise Richards in the context of her also being supportive of their daughter, and not so much about the actress following suit and starting up her own OnlyFans profile. That situation seems to still be going smoothly, so here's hoping things are all positive in that respect as well.

As for his where his own career is going next, Charlie Sheen is reteaming with Chuck Lorre, his Two and a Half Men creator, for the upcoming Max comedy How to Be a Bookie. No word on when that project might arrive, given all the strike delays, but 2024 seems like a great time to have Sheen back on the small screen. And if he wants to start up an OnlyFans profile to boost awareness, he has my support. 

The past couple of years have been pretty huge for Charlie Sheen, his ex-wife Denise Richards, and their daughter Sami, albeit not always in instances where everyone is in full agreement with each other. One reportedly ongoing source of contention amidst the former family unit is teen Sami making a living for herself on the subscription service OnlyFans. She started the account back in June 2022 to varying reactions from her famous folks, with Richards joining the site herself as a sign of support. The Two and a Half Men vet has reportedly changed his tune on that front a time or two, and there are indeed differing reports on his response to Sami referring to herself as a sex worker on TikTok.

What Sami Sheen Said About Being A Sex Worker

Sami Sheen has been fairly open about not going nearly as extreme with her OnlyFans content as many others on the platform, with posts that are reportedly about as explicit as Instagram pics. But that hasn’t stopped followers from shelling out all kinds of money to see those posts, and making solid bank from the gig has inspired her to flaunt that success accordingly. In a social media video from mid-June, she referred to herself as a sex worker, which caused a flurry of reactions both on- and offline.

It got to the point where Sheen shared a follow-up TikTok video that explained her reasoning for and defense of calling herself a sex worker, despite not actually partaking in the act of sexual intercourse, and how she doesn't get others' judgment. In her words:

For what it's worth, her use of "P-star" instead of "porn star," and "S-worker" instead of "sex worker," seemed to be a way to avoid any potential feedback from the social media site, as she also whispered the word "sex" elsewhere. 

The Conflicting Reports About Charlie Sheen's Feelings

It wouldn't be too difficult to hypothesize that Sami Sheen may have been talking about those close to her, as much as strangers online, by way of facing judgment about the way she makes her money. But let's leave that hypothesizing for another time. Because according to a statement that Sheen's representative shared with US Magazine, Denise Richards served as an inspirational for him to offer only a supportive voice from now on. According to the statement:

If that's indeed the way things will go from now on, it's obviously a best case scenario for all involved. Charlie Sheen has obviously gone through some thangs in his own life, from battles with substance abuse to his highly contentious relationship with Chuck Lorre to run-ins with the law. He presumably wants his daughter to avoid any potential downfalls of any kind, and that kind of fatherly instinct doesn't go away easily. But if he can keep that going while also having faith that she's making the right decisions for her own life, then happiness for all.

But then according to RadarOnline's sources, Charlie Sheen has different thoughts about it all that he hasn't made public. According to their sources, the actor has been "ballistic" about it, and also alleged:

Anonymous sources earn a completely different level of trust than a celebrity's representative, which can go in either direction. Public statements aren't always indicative of one's deepest thoughts, while citing anonymity offers little to put faith into. And chances are, his feelings are probably somewhere in between, and may change more over time, as it goes.

Hopefully Charlie Sheen finds more reasons to stay happy and celebrate himself as well as his family, with his long-awaited reteaming with Chuck Lorre coming in the form of the Max comedy How to Be a Bookie, in which he'll star opposite comedian Sebastian Maniscalo. Maybe the actor himself will complete the trifecta by setting up his own OnlyFans profile in order to promote the show. 

Quite frequently, casting choices in the realm of James Bond movies have come under intense scrutiny. More often than not, those gripes will be aimed at whoever is cast as the new 007, as seen in the case of Daniel Craig’s casting in 2005. But not too long before that huge debacle, there was the case of Denise Richards and her casting as one of The World is Not Enough’s Bond Girls. Almost 25 years after that film’s release, the actor has opened up on the "flack" she got for playing the role, as well as how she looks at the experience in hindsight. 

Making an appearance on the Spyhards Podcast, Richards and her nuclear physicist character Dr. Christmas Jones were the subject at hand. While that subject isn’t exactly a fresh one for the Starship Troopers star, as Denise Richards had recently clapped back against such comments, she shared more details about the immediate fallout that came during the press tour and release of the 19th cinematic 007 adventure.

Framing it as a sort of “damned if you do/damned if you don’t” situation, a huge part of what set some James Bond fans off was her character's wardrobe. Introduced to Pierce Brosnan’s Commander Bond while wearing a tank top and shorts, Dr. Jones apparently didn’t fit the bill for some people’s opinion of what a nuclear physicist should look like. Describing how she felt about the issue, Richards also shared the heartbreaking moments this outrage caused her in those early days: 

It's sad, but true that both Denise Richards and The World is Not Enough were somewhat savaged back in 1999. If you head over to the film's Rotten Tomatoes page, you'll see the movie sits at 51%, with the first knock against Richards' performance sitting squarely on the first page.

While talking about her experiences in The World is Not Enough, Denise Richards also expressed her wishes that social media were around during the movie’s production. On the positive side, she expressed that hope so that there was a better record of all the cool stuff she got to do behind the scenes. 

However, she also acknowledged that it would be a double-edged sword thanks to things like what was described above. One could only imagine how much harsher, or kinder, modern review embargoes would have treated her character. No matter what, Richards has maintained the same line that she’s held since being cast as Dr. Christmas Jones, and it’s served her well. 

Looking back on her experience as a Bond Girl, she still appreciates the opportunity it allowed her, as well as the chance to work with The World is Not Enough co-stars Pierce Brosnan, Sophie Marceau, and Dame Judi Dench. Reflecting on it all in this interview, Denise Richards reiterated the exact same message she took to Twitter just a couple of months ago through this further response: 

Almost 25 years later, Dr. Christmas Jones is still a valued and admirable entry into the canon of Bond Girls and Bond Women that were 007’s equal. That fact only further proves the point that former franchise mainstay Colin Salmon put out into the world himself, which stated that the Brosnan era excelled at improving the female leads. It also sadly heightens the unfair response that Denise Richards received during The World is Not Enough's contemporary release window. 

Past negativity doesn't overshadow the chemistry Richards shares with Pierce Brosnan through an on-screen relationship that puts the characters on pretty equal footing. Positioning Dr. Christmas Jones as being able to throw some sharp barbs of snark towards James Bond, their quest to avoid a nuclear incident is more enjoyable and certainly shows the great strides that were made in female representation. 

Hearing Richards reclaim that narrative, and share some wonderful Bond saga stories in the process, is nothing but positive. May she continue sharing stories both good and bad to help pave the way for future Bond Women to come. 

Just as some fans are reevaluating Richards’ role in the Bond saga, it’s wonderful to see the actor herself sticking up for herself and the impact she’s left on this legacy franchise. If you’d like to watch Denise Richards’ Dr. Christmas Jones again, then you can do so with a Paramount+ subscription, as that’s one source where you can currently find The World is Not Enough streaming. 

2022 was a huge year to celebrate in the world of James Bond movies. The 60th anniversary of Dr. No’s release was cause for celebration, reminding franchise fans of many films like The World is Not Enough that have kept 007 on the big screen. Such memories can bring up longstanding conversations, like the criticisms surrounding Denise Richards’ Bond Girl from that very entry in Pierce Brosnan’s Bond canon.

Almost 25 years of bagging on Dr. Christmas Jones saw Richards responding to this longstanding conversation point with the most perfect clapback one could expect. Jumping onto Twitter, Denise Richards rebutted against all who have claimed she was an unbelievable nuclear physicist with this short and sweet case:

The case against Dr. Jones was pretty much formed on Day 1, as Denise Richards’ roles in films like Starship Troopers and Wild Things apparently didn’t qualify the actor to play a nuclear expert. Naturally, just reading that statement back shows you how unfairly her The World is Not Enough character has been treated. Seeing Richards take the wind out of those sails with such a precise counterargument is a wonderful thing to behold.

It’s also a sign of the times, as Denise Richards has been fighting off trolls in recent weeks, after her recent encounter with a road rage shooter prompted some to make tasteless comments. Defying expectations, and looking fabulous in the process, she’s clearly not suffering fools in this age of the digital peanut gallery. 

Looking at the history of Bond Girls throughout history, there have definitely been some interesting decisions made with casting and characters. With that in mind, one has to realize that much like any other aspect of the formula, casting the right women for James Bond keeps the series current with the times. 

Dr. Christmas Jones was meant to be a fantasy reflecting the late ‘90s, much like Denise Richards said; so her being hired for a spot in The World is Not Enough was absolutely pitch perfect. Not to mention, her chemistry with Pierce Brosnan kept the witty banter and serious gravity of the film’s events in perfect balance. 

However, even these positives don’t make up for the one part of Richards' character that still doesn’t land almost 25 years later: that final Christmas joke made at her expense. Even in that respect, Denise Richards opening up to the internet and showing off her body on OnlyFans has only made her more of a force to be reckoned with, and a female talent with a devoted fanbase. 

Unfortunately, The World is Not Enough is not available as part of any major streaming service subscription, but if you want to relive the adventure of Bond and Dr. Christmas Jones, you can rent the movie via Amazon Prime. 

Denise Richards found herself in a pretty terrifying situation November 14, when she and her husband Aaron Phypers were targeted in a road rage shooting while driving to the set of her upcoming movie. Neither the actress nor her husband were physically injured in the incident, but they were undoubtedly shaken by what had occurred, and even had to put up with online trolls making light of the shooting. Thankfully, Richards also received a lot of support from her followers, and she took to social media with a message of gratitude for the love they’ve received from her fans.

The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star definitely had something to be thankful for this Thanksgiving, after another driver became aggravated with her and her husband on the road and fired shots at their vehicle. Denise Richards expressed those emotions to fans on Instagram, saying:  

It sounds like a number of friends and fans have reached out in the days following the road rage incident, because even if there were no injuries in the shooting, that’s a pretty traumatic thing to go through.

TMZ reported that Aaron Phypers was driving Denise Richards to work on her upcoming movie Angels Fallen: Warriors of Peace on November 14 and were having trouble locating Popsicle Studio L.A. A male driver reportedly became upset with the couple, shouting at them from his vehicle, before he passed them on the road and fired shots at their truck. When they arrived at the studio, the actress was apparently unnerved and sobbing, and a bullet hole was found near the back of the truck, prompting someone from production to call 911. It’s unknown if police responded to the set or if a report was filed. 

Despite being shaken up, Denise Richards proved to be a true professional and went on to work a 12-hour day. A gun safety meeting was also held for everyone on set that day, though it was unclear if it was related to Richards’ shooting incident or protocol following the tragic shooting on the set of Rust that left cinematographer Halyna Hutchins dead.

This was such an unfortunate incident that Denise Richards and her husband went through, and we’re certainly glad no one was injured. The actress has been in the headlines over the past couple of years for her career moves, as she joined OnlyFans alongside daughter Sam (drawing the ire of Sam’s father, Charlie Sheen), even getting her husband involved as she shows her “boobies” and “tush.” One can only wish the star well as she continues with her work and aims to move on from her scary automobile-related ordeal.

In addition to Angels Fallen: Warriors of Peace, Denise Richards will appear on the 2023 Movie Release Schedule in A Walking Miracle, as well as the TV series Second Chance and Paper Empire. See what else is coming to television and streaming in 2023. 

Less than a week after showing off her bikini photoshoot with makeup artist and fellow Real Housewives vet Pamela Brogardi, actress and OnlyFans celeb Denise Richards was involved in a stressful and potentially deadly incident on Monday, November 14, as she and her husband Aaron were targeted in a shooting sparked by road rage. She thankfully made it through the intense ordeal without physical injury, but she faced evenmore mental turmoil thanks to trolling commenters who lacked sympathy for her plight. 

Late on Tuesday evening, after news reports broke initially laying out the details for what happened to Richards and her hubby, the former Bond girl hopped on Twitter with an update. Though it wasn’t specifically for her millions of followers, but rather for a specific user whose foul and harm-wishing message was removed by the site’s security team for violating the rules. Here’s the gracious-until-fierce message she shared:

The original comment was shared beneath CBS Los Angeles’ story about the on-road shooting, and several people spoke up about reporting it to Twitter’s powers that be. (Which is a whole thing unto itself, given all things Elon Musk, but that’s neither here nor there.) Sadly, even though most of the comments beneath Denise Richards’ reply are of the positive, well-wishing variety, naysaying trolls are certainly still part of it all. 

As reported by TMZ, Richards’ husband was driving her to work in their Shelby truck, and was having a difficult time locating Popsicle Studio L.A. It’s stated that the male driver following them quickly became aggravated, and was shouting at the couple from his vehicle. Though the driver was allowed to pass them on the road, he still allegedly took shots at them with some kind of gun, with photos shared of the bullethole near the back of the truck. 

Somewhat shockingly, they continued driving to the studio, where Denise Richards then put in a full 12-hour day of work, despite being shaken up the entire time, and it’s stated that her husband stuck with her on the set the entire day. Richards is currently filming the fantasy action-adventure Angels Fallen: Warriors of Peace. 

Someone from the production who allegedly called 911 after seeing the damage to the truck, though it’s unclear if a police report was filed over the shooting. At the end of the day, the wife and husband were escorted back to the freeway by an off-duty police officer, in a presumed attempt to avoid a repeat incident if they couldn’t find their way back. 

Denise Richards has been on a wild ride in recent years, though for far more pleasing reasons than frightening life-threatening shootings. From her headline-making arrival for (and subsequent exit from) The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills to COVID-necessary sex scenes with mannequins on The Bold and the Beautiful to finding unexpected financial boons via OnlyFans following her and Charlie Sheen’s daughter Sami joining the subscription-based platform (against her father’s initial wishes). Not to mention she’ll soon be seen in the TV show Paper Empire, co-starring Kelsey Grammer and Wesley Snipes, and she also more recently landed a starring role in the upcoming dramatic thriller Second Chance, opposite Encanto’s Carolina Gaitàn and 90210’s AnnaLynne McCord. 

Here’s hoping nothing else comes of this, beyond justice coming to the alleged shooter. Fans can look forward to seeing Angels Fallen: Warriors of Peace at some point in 2023, where Richards’ other film A Walking Miracle will be released, with that film co-starring Mickey Rourke and Dina Meyer. 

Denise Richards was known for modeling before she became a household TV name thanks to projects like The Bold and the Beautiful and  The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The mom of three turned 51 this year, but she’s proving age is just a number in her latest snapshot, which features Richards glammed up and rocking a bikini for a glamorous new photoshoot. 

In a new post originally shared on Instagram by Pamela Brogardi and re-shared by Denise Richards herself, the 51-year-old star and reality personality showed off an itsy bitsy, teenie weenie and decidedly not yellow or polka dotted bikini. It was Brogardi who captioned the photo with “if looks could kill,” though Richards herself referred to it as a “fun, sexy shoot.” Take a look. 

On Pamela's post, Denise Richards thanked the makeup artist for the stunning look, calling her "Pammy." Some other notable names commented on the post with Real Housewives’ Sutton Stracke saying, “Can she make me look like this?😹😹😹 what a beauty!”  Real Housewives of Dubai star Caroline Stanbury also commented, “wow wow woo,” also including a fire emoji. 

Finally, fellow bikini lover and former Baywatch star Carmen Electra also commented “wow.” In fact, Richards’ look seems to have inspired 50-year-old Electra to post her own photoshoot bikini photos this weekend as well.  

Clearly any expectations about age and thirst traps have been thrown out the window.  

For the latest and SFW photoshoot, Richards had Sonny Matson on board as her photographer and Sammi M on board as stylist  as well as the aforementioned Pamela Brogardi for makeup. She’s not the only 50+ actress to rock a bikini in recent months either, as she has joined Baywatch alum Donna D’Errico and then 52-year-old old Jennifer Lopez –who did rock a teeny weenie yellow bikini in touting this kind of post. While there has apparently been some backlash from commenters over bikini looks on moms of a certain age, others have found them to be inspirational. 

During her long career, Denise Richards has been named among the Sexiest Women in the world on multiple lists, including appearing at #9 on Maxim’s list of 50 women back in 1999. Men's Health also previously ranked her as one of the "100 Hottest Women of All Time." These days, you can see her on OnlyFans, where she often rocks bikinis and more. Richards has previously explained what she’s willing to share on the subscription platform. (Interestingly, Carmen Electra also joined OnlyFans earlier in 2022.)

Next up, you’ll be able to catch Richards back on television. The actress and former partner of Charlie Sheen is set to star in Second Chance, a new drama about domestic cleaners. The 10-episode series is expected to be female-driven. 

Denise Richards has long been known for drawing attention with, among other things, her alluring beauty, and the Wild Things vet has also long been self-aware about such things. Which played into her decision to join the subscription-tiered site OnlyFans in solidarity with daughter Sami Sheen, whose arrival on the platform initially drew the ire of her father (and Richards’ ex-hubby) Charlie Sheen (though he went on to change his tune). Two months later, she apparently has no regrets about making that move, and has opened up about why she did it, what she’s been offering up to fans, and how her husband has factored into the fun.

Having starred across recent years in projects such as The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and The Bold and the Beautiful, Denise Richards has a variety of movies and series on the horizon. And it sounds like joining OnlyFans was as solid a side-move as she could have made, both from a personal and a financial perspective. And it’s clearly not a bum deal for her adoring fans. Appearing on the SiriusXM show Jeff Lewis Live, Richards spoke about enjoying the way OnlyFans feels like a throwback to the direct communication of latter-day fansites, allowing her to exchange messages and other things with subscribers. When asked what her modeling imagery consists of, she answered with:

Having posed for Playboy in years past, beyond other things, Denise Richards takes pride in still being able to show herself off in such ways, and who wouldn’t also want to feel that kind of body positivity? Especially if it also happened to pay the bills in the same breath. Richards did take a second to amusingly draw attention to the proliferation of faked nude pictures that seems to be its own NSFW Internet subculture at this point. In her words:

While many husbands likely wouldn’t be wildly comfortable with a wife who embraces OnlyFans in such a way, Richards implies that there are no issues when it comes to her significant other Aaron Phypers. In fact, he’s more of an active helper when it comes to the content she puts out. Here’s how she explained it, via People: 

It’s admittedly amusing to me to consider a hypothetical situation where Phypers attempts reverse psychology and offers her what he believes to be terrible suggestions. Not that there are terrible suggestions when it comes to OnlyFans content, since there’s 100% someone out there that would find those ideas worth the subscription costs. 

In any case, what started as a way to support her daughter following Sami Sheen’s OnlyFans-related backlash has become a new way of life for Denise Richards. At least for now, since she’s definitely not leaving the world of acting behind. In fact, it wasn’t long after she joined the online service that it was announced she joined the cast of the upcoming dramatic thriller Second Chance. No word on whether her husband will be offering his services behind the scenes, though. 

While she may never rejoin the Real Housewives universe, Denise Richards can be found on OnlyFans and in the upcoming TV series Paper Empire along with Wesley Snipes, Robert Knepper and Helena Mattsson. While waiting to hear where that show will end up, head to our 2022 TV premiere schedule to see what new and returning shows are on the way.

Denise Richards has been as busy as ever with her TV career in recent years, from roles on The Bold and the Beautiful to the upcoming financial TV drama Paper Empire to no less than two Lifetime Original movies involving cheerleaders in violent situations. (To say nothing of her short-but-drama-filled Real Housewives run.) But no acting was involved when the actress attracted tons of attention earlier this year by joining the social site OnlyFans after her and Charlie Sheen’s daughter initially caused waves with her own profile on the subscription-based platform. Now, with all that back-and-forth in the past, Richards has reflected on the difficult journey through her highly public divorce from the former Two and a Half Men star.

Appearing on the podcast Divorced Not Dead, as hosted by Caroline Stanbury, Denise Richards was asked if she was comfortable talking about what unraveled her marriage with Charlie Sheen, and the actress started off by saying:

There, Denise Richards made it clear that despite all of the hardships and stress and other foul feelings involved with her split from Charlie Sheen, the fact that they created beautiful and loving children together is enough to justify the messier times. Of course, that viewpoint was probably easier to come around to through hindsight, seeing as how Richards was very much still pregnant with their second daughter Lola Rose at the point when she filed divorce paperwork. (Which was later followed by her filing a restraining order against Sheen, with his alleged death threats against her as the impetus.)

With all the additional mental struggles from pregnancy hormones and having a sick mother, Denise Richards would have already been in a rough spot without divorce issues, or even with fairly traditional divorce issues. Unfortunately, her split with Charlie Sheen was as complicated as it gets, and that was quite a few years before his controversial exit from Two and a Half Men and all the problematic behavior (and accusatory comments) that came before and after. And so with everything being so out in the open at that point, Richards talked about how her instinct at the time was to retreat inward, saying: 

As ridiculous and over-the-top as tabloid reports can be, there’s often a germ of truth to the claims, but those stories apparently didn’t hold a candle to what was actually happening between Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen. Understandably, the actress didn’t go into painful recollections in that moment, considering she’s likely spent years trying to compartmentalize those complicated emotions and memories. 

Ultimately, Denise Richards fell back on her instincts, which were to deflect all the negativity of that situation away from her children and others. She continued, reflecting on how fans can sympathize with that troublesome time in her life, even if others’ problems don’t fully compare with her rumor-sparking divorce. In her words:

While it may not have been the easiest road to travel down, Denise Richards has certainly come a long way since her divorce with Charlie Sheen was finalized back in 2006. And even if she still has some underlying feelings about it all — she previously stated that split was what sparked her to join the Real Housewives franchise — Richards and her daughters are seemingly doing as well as ever now. 

Denise Richards has quite a few projects on the horizon, with her family comedy Junkyard Dogs having debuted on August 5. She signed on for the new series Second Chance soon after joining OnlyFans, and will also be seen this year and next in the roller rink caper Saturday at the Starlight, in the dark thriller Wickensburg, the housekeeper-centric thriller Among the Ashes, and the military faith-based sequel Angels Fallen 2: Warriors of Peace. While waiting for any and all of those projects to come out, head to our 2022 TV premiere schedule to see what’s on the way soon. 

Never let it be said that former The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Denise Richards is one to rest on her laurels. The actress has racked up over 100 credits in her career, and shortly after her 18-year-old daughter with ex-husband Charlie Sheen, Sami, decided to join the frequently NSFW subscription service, OnlyFans, Richards jumped on the bandwagon as well. While Richards is still getting used to what she can do on OnlyFans, she’s now landed herself in a new television show, Second Chance.

What Is Denise Richards’ New TV Show About?

According to Variety, Denise Richards has signed on to star in Second Chance, a dramatic thriller that focuses on a trio of domestic cleaners and the people they work for, while they wrestle with getting over their difficult pasts and adjust to the immense challenges created by trying to create better futures for themselves. The new series, which is female-driven and will have a 10-episode first season, also stars Carolina Gaitàn (Encanto), Tiffany Hines (Magnum P.I.), Alexis Ren (Deputy), and AnnaLynne McCord (90210).

Second Chance will see Gaitàn portray cleaner Marianna, who suddenly has to deal with “extraordinary and dangerous situations,” along with her buddies, Jackie (Hines) and Shira (Ren). While we don’t know who Richards will play yet, viewers can expect the new TV show to tackle important topics like women’s equality, LGBTQ+ rights, immigration, organized crime, and diversity while showing how the female leads persevere with each other’s love and support. The series will also star Luke Goss (Hellboy II: The Golden Army), Hannah Ware (The One), Jake Manley (The Order), and Jerry Ferrara (Entourage).

Women supporting each other is something that Richards certainly knows something about. While that was not a universal aspect of Richards’ time on RHOBH, where they’ve continued to talk about her well after her two-season run on the reality show was over, she did stand up for her daughter, Sami, a lot after the young woman got negative comments and press for joining OnlyFans. 

Someone who was immediately outspoken about disliking Sami’s participation in the fan site was her father, Charlie Sheen (despite his own history with sex workers), who said he didn’t “condone” it and had asked his daughter to “keep it classy.” Meanwhile, Richards was completely supportive of Sami, noted that she trusted her judgment, and later went to bat for her kid in a full Instagram post that praised her “confidence,” while Sheen backed down from his OnlyFans negativity a bit.

Luckily, Denise Richards hasn’t had to deal with hearing any guff from Sheen about her own OnlyFans work, and she’s keeping plenty busy with a number of upcoming acting projects currently being on her plate, along with Second Chance, which is set to premiere worldwide sometime later this year. 

Raising kids is hard, especially when the parents disagree on certain finer points, as was the case between Kanye West and Kim Kardashian concerning their now-9-year-old daughter’s TikTok use earlier this year. Another pair of illustrious exes at odds of late were Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen, who had two totally different reactions when their newly minted 18-year-old daughter decided to join OnlyFans. (Namely, Sheen hinted that this wouldn’t have happened under his roof.) Richards later opted to join the NSFW platform too – in support of her daughter or in spite of Sheen, it is unclear – but she revealed how she’s adjusting as a content provider now that she’s on there.

The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, who continues to be mentioned on that reality series even as recently as Season 12, is still figuring out how to navigate OnlyFans, truth be told. However, her exclusive content already runs for $25 per month for her followers. And in an interview with People, the star shared that she’s starting to see the site as the next big evolution in fan-celeb interactions. She said:

As many will recall, Denise Richards was somewhat of a sex symbol in her own right when she came up in the industry in the late 1990s. Her roles in films like Wild Things and The World Is Not Enough (as a “Bond girl”) cemented that status. So it makes perfect sense that she would join one of the more risqué content-creating platforms on the web. She might not be dropping down to her birthday suit just yet, but there’s a distinct possibility. The 51-year-old mother of three stipulated her boundaries to the outlet, saying:

Initially, after her daughter Sami Sheen joined and her ex made his disapproval known to the world, the actress made it quite clear that she trusted Sami implicitly. As a result, the ex-Two and a Half Men star seemingly had a sudden change of heart, saying that his daughter would now have a “united parental front” on the matter. Reports also indicate that his reaction to Denise Richards joining OnlyFans is much better than what it was for Sami, apparently.

Other famous faces have found new life on the platform as well. Fellow 90s sex symbol Carmen Electra loves that the platform serves as a safe space for her to engage with fans and wear many different hats, so to speak. Likewise, Teen Wolf alum Tyler Posey has been able to open up about his sexuality for the first time using his own account.

Clearly, Denise Richards is all for her and her daughter’s OnlyFans accounts and the opportunities it presents. But the real question is, does the 18-year-old approve of her mom sharing the same space as her? According to Richards, the answer is yes. Sami Sheen doesn’t give her pointers or anything, but her mom claimed, "Just like being on Instagram or Facebook, it's the same thing for me, as far as that goes." On that note, Sheen is likely open to giving her mother pointers, as they both continue to navigate the very lucrative website.

Remember the days when Charlie Sheen news revolved around a new TV show or movie role? It’s been a bygone era for quite a few years now — though I’ll never stop hoping for a third Hot Shots movie — and Sheen seemingly keeps things pretty low-key these days where his personal life is concerned. But he certainly had something to say after his daughter Sami Sheen joined OnlyFans in mid-June, and it wasn’t long before his ex-wife Denise Richards followed in their daughter’s OnlyFootsteps. But if you thought that update would set the two and a Half Men vet on a blood-boiling frenzy, put on your surprised face.

Charlie Sheen initially sounded a little barbed upon finding out that his and Denise Richards’ 18-year-old daughter Sami joined the social platform known for its NSFW content, and even indirectly pointed a finger of blame at Richards since it happened under her roof. But that all seems to be slightly turbulent water under the bridge, as the goal appears to be to put family first. According to Us Weekly’s sources, Sheen is keen on keeping the peace.

Not long after Charlie Sheen’s initial reaction to his daughter’s social media update, he did seem to change his tune via a publicist statement. But it wouldn’t be reality-shattering to speculate that he made that statement just to counter people’s reactions to his initial response. It’s probably not easy to nail the right tone with these specific parameters involved.

After Denise Richards herself joined OnlyFans, it was only a matter of time before Sheen’s reaction was reported on in some way, and one can only hope that he’s legitimately cool with everything. For everyone’s sake, since there’s obviously a decent chance that both Richards and Sami Sheen could attain fairly massive popularity through the social platform, meaning it might be around in their lives for a while. 

I’m not sure it would be factually correct to say that OnlyFans brought these family members closer together, at least in spirit, but it also doesn’t feel so incorrect. Sami Sheen made the independent decision to presumably rake in the dough, and her father seemingly came to terms with it, even if it wasn’t in a way that was quite as supportive as her mom’s. 

What with Jon Cryer recently discussing his time co-starring opposite Sheen on Two and a Half Men — both the good times and the bad — and the sitcom’s creator Chuck Lorre talking about being able to rewatch old episodes again, it’s almost enough to make one forget that Tiger Blood ever had another meaning beyond the literal one. But not really.

For anyone who's not game to hear me wish upon high for another Major League sequel with Charlie Sheen on the mound (metaphorically?), head to our 2022 TV premiere schedule to see what new and returning shows are on the way.

As the old saying goes, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Or in the case of Denise Richards and her daughter Sami Sheen, it seems like the tree doesn’t fall far from the apple. (Is that how plants work?) The 18-year-old offspring of both Richards and Charlie Sheen caused quite a stir in early June when she started up and publicized her OnlyFans account, which initially drew some negativity from at least one of her parents. And now, Richards has offered up a unique form of support by ALSO joining the fan subscription platform known for its NSFW content. 

Taking to Instagram to spread the good word to her 1.4 million fans and famous friends, Denise Richards shared a beach-bound video alongside the announcement that she’d joined OnlyFans, with the link sitting squarely in her IG profile bio. Check it out below.  

The former star of Bold and the Beautiful and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills followed up on that post several hours later with another Instagram message pointing fans in the direction of her new OnlyFans account, which currently features four posts, including one video and two images. Peep that second post below.

At this time, Denise Richards is charging fans the fairly standard fee of $25 a month to view her posts, with a three-month bundle for $67.50. It’s probably safe to say that fans shouldn’t expect loads of nudity-focused content from Richards, all things considered, but that doesn’t mean things won’t be titillating in some ways. (Perhaps don’t hold out hopes for her to sell her jarred-up farts, though.)

Plus, the Wild Things vet made it known that her intention is to personally respond to all comments and questions from her subscribers, so anyone eagerly hoping to hear Denise Richards saying their name will potentially be on cloud nine. Here’s her account’s bio:

Depending on how many people jump to subscribe, Denise Richards may have difficulties finding the time to respond to each and every person, especially on a platform where comments aren’t so dependably classy. I can’t even imagine what would happen if it was discovered that Charlie Sheen was one of her doting subscribers. 

Following the news that Sami Sheen joined OnlyFans, Denise Richards shared a supportive response, while the former Two and a Half Men star Charlie Sheen essentially blamed his ex for allowing it to happen, and then shared his hopes that his daughter would keep things classy. In the aftermath of those opposing comments, it appears as if Sheen had a change of heart, as he later shared a far more heartfelt and family-focused message. Not that he directly stated that he was pumped about her OnlyFans success, but baby steps.

Denise Richards later shared a lengthier reaction in the wake of Sami Sheen’s news, more specifically in response to the amount of hate directed at the mother and daughter. She praised her kiddo’s confidence, wishing that she felt the same way about herself, and even teased at the time that she might start up her own OnlyFans page. One can only assume that sentiment sparked a lot of positive reactions, leading her to take charge and start one up. 

A variety of celebs end up joining OnlyFans for the financial upswing, with YouTube and Twitch star Corinna Kopf quickly pulled in literal millions of dollars days after joining, for example. (And she’s hardly the only one to rake in millions on the platform.) It’s likely that Denise Richards isn’t doing it for the money, although I’m sure the extra funds won’t hurt in the long run. 

Sami Sheen joins quite a few other offspring of major celebs on the social platform, from Dog the Bounty Hunter’s daughter Cecily Chapman to American Pickers star Danielle Colby’s daughter Memphis. We’ll just have to wait and see if Sheen posts receipts to show off how well she’s done on Only Fans so far.  

Sami Sheen, the daughter of actors Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards, recently made headlines when she joined OnlyFans. While Richards was supportive of her daughter’s new endeavor, the ever-opinionated Sheen had a disapproving reaction to the news. Now, after some time to think about it, it sounds like he had a change of heart. 

Charlie Sheen walked back his initial comments regarding Sami Sheen joining OnlyFans and explained his new stance in a statement to Entertainment Tonight. A publicist for Sheen shared new thoughts from the actor who stated his ex-wife Denise Richards made some “salient points” after chastising him and others for criticizing Sami’s decision and shared his new stance on the matter: 

The latest comments made by Charlie Sheen are much different than the initial statement he made after Sami Sheen’s announcement. Sheen originally stated that he disapproved of his daughter’s decision, but because she is eighteen and lives with Denise Richards, he couldn’t prevent it from happening. Sheen added that because he couldn’t prevent it, he asked her to “keep it classy, creative and not sacrifice her integrity.”

As for the “salient points” Denise Richards made that inspired Charlie Sheen (who is attempting to make a comeback with a new series) to change his stance, those came in a lengthy statement the actress posted to her Instagram. Richards took Sheen and others to task for criticizing Sami Sheen and applauded her daughter for her confidence:

Sami Sheen’s OnlyFans account is now active and already has some information up for anyone wanting to subscribe. Subscriptions start at $19.99 a month, and can expect three uploads a week from Sheen. Sheen also promises sales on her profile around the holidays, and that her messages are open to subscribers that wish to reach out. Sheen recently amassed 100k followers on Instagram alone, so it stands to reason she might grow her new platform rather quickly, assuming those fans are interested. 

Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen have a unified stance on their daughter’s OnlyFans, but their latest public back and forth is just one of many past encounters in their relationship post-divorce. Richards even revealed in 2019 that her divorce from the actor resulted in sizable legal fees, which ultimately drove her to do reality television. We’ll see if the two can remain cordial after this recent exchange, but only time will tell. 

A little drama between actors over their children is always a source of entertainment for some, but with new shows popping up on television every day, there’s plenty to watch and enjoy there as well! 

These days, celebrities are finding a myriad of ways to make money to supplement their usual flows of income. One of the most popular methods that many TV and film personalities have been using as of late is OnlyFans, where stars can share sensual content with their loyal devotees. It’s been interesting to watch so many make the leap to the platform, and some may be surprised by one of its more recent additions. Sam Sheen, the daughter of Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards is now on the site, and her famous parents had some varied reactions. 

Sam Sheen took to Instagram to share a pic and entice her followers to check out more on her OnlyFans account. The post caught plenty of eyes, with many in the comments showing love to the young media personality. One of those to comment was none other than her mother. The former, but still frequently mentioned, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star chimed in with a sweet message of support for her teenage child:

Whether Denise Richards ever expected her daughter to take up a gig like this one is anyone’s guess. But it’s sweet to see that she still has her back during this time. You can check out the 18-year-old’s post down below:

Charlie Sheen, on the other hand, offered up a somewhat blunter assessment of his daughter’s new side enterprise. The Two and a Half Men alum released a statement through his publicist and shared it with ET. In it, the polarzing actor made it clear that he does not “condone” his daughter’s decision, and he revealed the words of advice he bestowed upon her:

Some may be surprised to hear the actor’s thoughts given his personal history. While he hasn’t personally engaged in a platform like OnlyFans, he has enjoyed the company of those who may have. In the months leading up to his departure from Chuck Lorre’s hit CBS comedy, he was reportedly partying with porn stars and prostitutes in Las Vegas. After getting wind of the comments, Denise Richards responded with some thoughts of her own:

At the very least, one can see why Sam Sheen would view OnlyFans as a viable way to earn money. “Cash me outside” girl Bhad Bahbie claims she can retire, thanks to the money she’s made from it. 90 Day Fiancé stars have also found success, with one even making big bucks by selling farts. And if that weren’t enough, Baywatch icon Carmen Electra has even joined along with a former WWE star.

It remains to be seen just how success Sam Sheen will find on the subscription content service. But surely knowing that she has the support of at least one of her celebrity parents should provide her with some comfort as she progresses.

She only had a two-season stint on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but Denise Richards certainly gave viewers a different perspective of herself in that time. The Bold and The Beautiful alum talked about her sex life (a lot, like excessively) and second husband Aaron Phypers, a sound and light therapist, who supposedly has miraculous healing abilities. However, Richards ultimately decided to leave the show last year after Brandi Glanville's hookup allegations seemingly went too far. And the actress apparently feels some type of way about still being mentioned on the show by the remaining cast.

Her name has in fact been brought up several times on the show in Season 11. Her former co-star, Garcelle Beauvais, has been pushing Lisa Rinna, who went in on the Brandi Glanville rumors, to make amends with Denise Richards. Rinna said that it would take time but, at the reunion, she was upset that Beauvais had later suggested she should be replaced by Richards in the next season. A source for Us Weekly claims that Richards is fed up with the situation altogether, saying:

It is rather odd that Garcelle Beauvais keeps bringing her up when she's no longer part of the show. Even odder, though, is how erratic the actual conversation transpired between Beauvais and Lisa Rinna at the reunion. First, it was about the Spider-Man: Homecoming alum not feeling comfortable in the group and, soon, it was about Beauvais throwing “passive provocative” shade (whatever that actually means). This was followed closely by Beauvais’ whammy revelation that she was told by someone else that Rinna previously said she didn't like how Beauvais brought up race on the show.

Surprisingly enough, Lisa Rinna ended up laughing and hugging Garcelle Beauvais whilst sitting in her lap when everything was said and done. So there's hope for them yet on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but apparently not where Denise Richards is concerned. The source stated:

The only real chance of that happening is if Denise Richards actually gets back on the payroll as a main cast member. She’s all but said that's a possibility but, considering how Richards famously tried to stop Bravo filming around those cheating allegations last season, it doesn’t seem like she can really hang. That kind of drama is practically a standard requirement for being on The Real Housewives.

Denise Richards has had a prolific acting career that has spanned decades, genres and formats. Her two-season stint on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills quickly fell apart, though, when alum Brandi Glanville made an appearance and shockingly claimed that they once hooked up. Richards denied the allegations but would ultimately leave the show in 2020. When asked recently if she would return to the Bravo series one day, her answer wasn't as emphatically negative as one might expect.

Previously, Garcelle Beauvais had hinted that her former co-star Denise Richards wasn't quite done with the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills just yet, despite her dramatic exit following the hookup rumors. She even indicated that Richards would return if a certain castmate would get the royal Bravo boot out the door. No answers on who exactly she wanted on the chopping block, yet Richards told ET Online,

So that's not a yes, but it's also not a no. Denise Richards can't really be blamed for not wanting to return to the Real Housewives Beverly Hills. In Season 10, Brandi Glanville got into explicit detail of their alleged hookup and even claimed that Richards tricked her into cheating (since Richards’ husband supposedly knew nothing about it, as she was led to believe). The other ladies, most notably Lisa Rinna, ended up interrogating Richards about it and implied that she was a liar.

Denise Richards’ ambiguous response concerning her return also touched on the more serious tone nowadays on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Her other former co-star, Erika Jayne, is currently in the midst of being interrogated by the ladies (in a similar fashion as Richards was) for lying about her husband's legal and financial troubles. Surprisingly enough, given her own experience, Richards commented that the women likely “couldn't not talk about some of the things that's going on,” adding that it's “a very difficult situation.” Most definitely, Brandi Glanville hookup accusations are crumbs in comparison to embezzlement allegations.

For her part, Brandi Glanville has said that she doesn't regret bringing up the alleged hookup one bit on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. But she also implied that she herself was done for good with the show that brought her notoriety. If Glanville is well and truly out of the way, it seems Denise Richards wouldn't mind returning to the reality TV world, although she didn't explicitly name Glanville. She said,

After first Lisa Vanderpump’s exit and then Denise Richards leaving, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills had to make some new arrangements. Sutton Stracke, a divorcee with couture galore, entered the fray last year and is now in her sophomore season. Kyle Richards’ sister Kathy Hilton was brought in this year, along with newcomer Crystal Kung Minkoff, who is the first Asian American star of the show.

Changes are, in fact, happening all the time within the Real Housewives franchise. But it must be said that Bravo fans likely want more of a Lisa Vanderpump return than a Denise Richards one, who apart from the hookup allegations was most known for talking about her husband's penis.

Denise Richards’ two-season arc on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills revealed a lot more about the actress than she probably anticipated. Fans learned that she has no problem being the only one in the group without a super glam squad. She also liked to talk, a lot, about her and her husband's sexual exploits on national television. But thanks in part to one Brandi Glanville, the drama seemingly went too far for Richards, who quit after the show's previous season. While a future return to the show seems unlikely, Garcelle Beauvais has now chimed in.

Many fans were disappointed that Denise Richards didn't return for the current season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Too many loose ends were just never fully resolved, even after her final reunion. However, Garcelle Beauvais fanned our flames of hope concerning her former co-star, who she is still in contact with. On Watch What Happens Live, Beauvais shared:

Garcelle Beauvais’ revelation is certainly a shocker. In Denise Richards’ dramatic last Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season, she was accused of having an affair with Brandi Glanville and lying about it. Glanville also made it seem as though Richards’ husband would “kill” her if he ever found out. Richards vehemently denied it and tried to shut down filming several times whilst it was being discussed by the group on the show.

If what Garcelle Beauvais is saying is true, the only question that remains is which current Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star does Denise Richards allegedly want axed? We can rule out newbies Sutton Stracke and Crystal Kung Minkoff, who weren't castmates on Richards’ seasons. That only leaves Lisa Rinna, Kyle Richards, Dorit Kemsley and Erika Jayne.

It seemed as though Real Housewives executive producer Andy Cohen believed Lisa Rinna is on the chopping block when discussing the potential on Watch What Happens Live, which Garcelle Beauvais neither confirmed nor denied. He also indicated that such a decision “doesn’t always work.” Since we’re all talking about it as a possibility, though, it is the logical choice. Rinna relentlessly questioned Denise Richards about the affair rumor – to the detriment of their supposed decades-long friendship.

Quite frankly, only Lisa Rinna and Halloween Kills star Kyle Richards are likely targets for Denise Richards’ Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cut list. Kyle had, in fact, allowed Brandi Glanville the opening on the show to bring up the hookup allegations in the first place. But the idea of either Rinna or Kyle (the two who have been on the show the longest of anyone) getting fired so Denise Richards can step back into the fray is a fool’s errand. (I’m sure that disappoints Lisa Vanderpump, who apparently wants the same thing to happen.)

One thing is certain: it's not Brandi Glanville who's preventing Denise Richards’ return to the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Glanville even said recently that she's done with the franchise for good. (We've heard that one before, though.) The ex-Bravo star, at the same time, doubled down on her accusations against Richards and, in fact, called it “freeing.”

The current season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is slowly wading into the personal and legal drama surrounding Erika Jayne. But the show thrives, too, off quirky storylines. Personally, I have been scratching my head ever since Denise Richards left about those allusions that she and her husband were being “followed” by the government over his "therapy" work. The streets demand more answers on this, Bravo.

On the last season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, former star Brandi Glanville made a few re-appearances and certainly made a big splash. She claimed that she and Denise Richards had sex before. It eventually got back to Richards, who adamantly denied the hookup and tried to stop production from filming the bombshell allegations on-camera. Richards ultimately left the show for good after the drama, but Glanville has no regrets about what happened.

In fact, the notoriously blunt ex-Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star thinks it got blown way out of proportion. Brandi Glanville said to ET Online about the Denise Richards hookup scandal:

Initially, clapback queen Brandi Glanville described on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills that she only felt compelled to come forward about her alleged hookup with Denise Richards after she felt that she was complicit in cheating without her knowledge. She thought that Richards’ new husband, Aaron Phypers, was fine with Richards hooking up with girls but supposedly found out later that was not true. The alleged secrecy was a sore point for Glanville, whose ex-husband Eddie Cibrian cheated on her with Vanderpump Rules star Scheana Shay.

Nevertheless, Brandi Glanville was accused of lying about the hook up not only by Denise Richards but some of the other Real Housewives of Beverly Hills ladies as well. The mistrust was not entirely unwarranted, given that Glanville has admitted to embellishing in the past. But even now that Season 10 has ended and Glanville has not been invited back or Season 11, she is still adamant about the allegations and questions why she would continue to lie about it. She continued:

To Brandi Glanville, the alleged hookup was no big deal, but the scandalous reveal of it seemed like a very huge deal to The Bold and the Beautiful star, who has three daughters with ex-husband Charlie Sheen. Richards was on the Real Housewives for two seasons and did seem to want to backpedal her more risqué anecdotes in the last one. Still, it can’t be denied that Glanville does end up saying other things she regrets. Her last controversial Twitter thoughts, in which she said Armie Hammer could break her rib and barbeque it, prompted a backlash by fans who were taking those allegations pretty seriously as well.

But Brandi Glanville is apparently done withReal Housewives for good, though, and won’t be shaking things up anymore. Judging from the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 11 trailer, however, it looks like they won’t need her help in that regard.

Warning! The following contains spoilers from Part 2 of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion on Wednesday, September 9. Read at your own risk!

Denise Richards' alleged affair has been a hot topic on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 10, and there was some real fallout over the ordeal. Friendships were ruined, Richards allegedly sent a cease and desist to the show, and despite her return towards the end of the season and for the reunion, news broke that she won't be returning for next season. This may be why Richards went all-out on accusations in the reunion, with Brandi Glanville saying that some things Richards said were "blatant lies."

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fans know by now that there's one major thing Denise Richards (who at one point believed doing the show would be fun) and Brandi Glanville have a dispute over, and apparently Glanville had a problem with something Richards said about her during the reunion as well. In an interview with Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live, Glanville responded to the claim that she has slept with at least one other member of the show's cast.

Brandi Glanville confirmed she has never slept with anyone else on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast, but surprisingly, was willing to name drop the people she would sleep with if given the opportunity. It was a welcome surprise to Andy Cohen, who had said on the pre-recorded reunion he didn't offer Glanville a spot on the reunion because she wasn't officially a part of the cast, and had given everything of value to the drama with Denise Richards.

And while she was answering questions, Brandi Glanville decided to lay out exactly what happened with Denise Richards in their alleged sexual encounter. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fans got the gist of it on the show, but for anyone who needed the full story, here it is.

While The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills hinted the two may have had a long drawn out relationship happening due to the length of text chats between them, Brandi Glanville has said that wasn't the case. Obviously, there are two sides to this story, so until there's anything explicitly proven, it's all alleged. In either case, it looks like Denise Richards is ready to put this show, and probably this drama, behind her. Variety reports that she is officially finished with Real Housewives of Beverly Hills after Season 10.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills aired the second half of the Season 10 reunion on September 9. Continue to stick with CinemaBlend for all the latest happenings in the Real Housewives franchise, and check out our 2020 fall TV premiere schedule for some viewing options now that RHoBH is finished for the season.

The Bold and the Beautiful was one of the first network TV shows to resume filming last month following production-halting shutdowns that went wide in March. Taking into account new guidelines and safety measures being set up to ease cast and crew back into filming, the long-time soap jumped right in and improvised, pairing actors with blow-up dolls and mannequins during romantic scenes to avoid physical contact. Recently, The Bold and the Beautiful star Denise Richards revealed how she actually avoided a sex scene with a mannequin.

The Bold and the Beautiful’s production has been practicing health and safety protocols. With those in place, it restructured the way scenes are staged and filmed. Due to social distancing measures, and because the soap has a good amount of intimate scenes (sex, kissing, etc.), the series has opted to include actors’ spouses as stand-ins for close-up shots if need be, beyond all the human-shaped inanimate objects. Speaking with ET, Denise Richards confirmed that she brought in her husband Aaron Phypers as a mannequin-substitute. Here’s what she said:

I can only imagine how strange and uncomfortable it might be to film a love scene with a latex mannequin, so Denise Richards would “much rather” share those moments with her non-latex husband. And hey, at least she’ll be looking at someone she actually cares about rather than the unmoving face of a doll. (Not a creepy thought at all.) I guess those who don’t have significant others may be stuck getting lusty with mannequins, which kinda sucks, but the show must go on.

Still, filming during the pandemic doesn’t sound easy, especially for a show that puts out daily episodes. The Bold and the Beautiful’s Jacqueline MacInnes Wood concedes that it’s especially “difficult at times” when the instinct is to reach out to touch someone and can’t. However, as actors, Wood says they “make it work.” If that’s what it takes to ensure everyone’s safety, then I think everyone on the soap opera and beyond can get used to this new normal for a while.

As a viewer aware of the situation, however, it might be weird to watch wigged mannequins replace physical intimacy between actors. That said, whether it’s a mannequin or a significant other standing in for sex scenes, fans probably won’t notice too much, since the scenes are being filmed “from a great distance.” The magic of television, am I right? Bring out the holograms!

Depending on the country, certain TV productions will have different procedures when their casts and crews go back to work. The Bold and the Beautiful seems to be acting as a blueprint for what may or may not work on the set of other LA-based shows. Perhaps we’ll see more mannequins on the set of other network series, but at least Denise Richards and co. have options with regards to living and breathing stand-ins.

The Bold and the Beautiful airs weekdays at 1:30 p.m. ET on CBS. For more on what to watch in the coming months, be sure to check out our 2020 fall TV premiere guide.

Reality TV can be a lucrative business, even for celebrities that choose to do it and aren't a Kardashian. Denise Richards can attest to that, as the actress recently revealed the genre was a big help during one of the more harrowing times of her life: her divorce with ex Charlie Sheen.

In fact, if it wasn't for that drama, Richards may not have partnered with E! for Denise Richards: It's Complicated. While the actress has been around Hollywood for quite some time, she revealed on the Daddy Issues podcast that financial woes more or less pushed her into signing the deal to get into doing the show.

Denise Richards didn't necessarily want to jump into the world of reality television amidst all her problems with Charlie Sheen, but she needed to pay the bills. And as Richards told the Daddy Issues podcast, she didn't necessarily realize how much her divorce drama with Sheen would affect her career as an actress.

To start, Denise Richards said the controversial Charlie Sheen was going to the press and airing out things (as he has been known to do) she would've rather had been kept private. Those details would come out regardless, which Richards revealed would hurt her ability to get roles in other projects.

Perhaps ironically, the solution to some of her troubles meant letting the world in even further with Denise Richards: It's Complicated. The series didn't run for long, and while roles might have paused for Richards temporarily, they've since picked back up and she's back in the limelight.

Denise Richards has even gone back to the world of reality television and is a regular on Season 9 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Richards will return for Season 10, but also has a good deal of other roles in television and movies to do as well. While Richards may still enjoy her privacy, as she mentioned at the time she first joined RHOBH, she's in a good place now, so perhaps she wants America to see that as well?

Charlie Sheen Says He Has Been Blacklisted In Hollywood

As mentioned, Denise Richards is expected to return to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills which airs on Bravo. Stick with CinemaBlend for more on that show and for more on what's happening in the world of television and movies.

If you have been keeping up with your reality television headlines, then you probably already know that model, actress, and former Bond girl Denise Richards has joined the cast of Bravo's The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Richards will make her debut in the series' upcoming ninth season. She previously dipped her toe in the reality television pond with her E! series Denise Richards: It's Complicated. So, why has the mom of three decided to join the Bravo series? Richards explained, saying:

Exactly. Why not? Denise Richards' explanation to Extra makes perfect sense. And, her wonderful approach to filming the show should help her weather any storms to come. Things are known to get dicey as cast members approach the end of the season. As seen in her E! reality show, Richards is down to earth and fun, so she should be more than okay, no matter what transpires. In case the drama ever overwhelms her, she can be sure to get pointers on how to press on from her friend Lisa Rinna.

Lisa Rinna joined The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in 2014 for Season 5. Despite all the drama that has unfolded on-screen over the course of the three seasons she has starred on the series, Rinna still has a great deal of enthusiasm for doing the show. Denise Richards shared that she checked in with Rinna and asked how she felt about doing it and Richards shared this:

Fans are definitely ready to enjoy the fun to come in Season 9. It is shaping up to be quite an exciting season, given the cast the show has assembled. So far, Denise Richards is the only new cast member in Season 9, meaning she will join the in-tact cast of Season 8. Richards also confirmed previous reports that her daughters will appear on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, as will Richards' boyfriend Aaron Phypers.

Having previously revealed that she is a fan of the Bravo franchise, Richards has an idea of what is in store for her. Of course, watching the show and being a full-time part of it are two different things. While The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills viewers will be interested in seeing how Denise Richards ends up fitting into the group, fans of It's Complicated will be interested in getting an update on what she's been up to since that show concluded. Well, they are about to find out.

The ninth season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills should begin airing sometime this fall on Bravo.

It's official! Bravo's Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has a new resident. Yes, it is really happening! The hit reality series will welcome model and actress Denise Richards as a full-time Housewife in Season 9. Word of the Bond girl potentially joining the cast of the show first circulated late last month.

Now that word is official as Denise Richards confirmed the news herself to People, which reports that the announcement is the result of discussions that have been held for years between Richards and the show. So, this casting news has been a long time in the making. Richards also shared that she is a huge fan of the show and is hoping to meet Boy George, a close friend of Richards' new castmate Dorit Kemsley.

Denise Richards will presumably join the previous season's cast for Season 9. In Season 8 that roster included: Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave, Dorit Kemsley, Erika "Jayne" Girardi, Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, and Lisa Vanderpump. Season 8 had not seen the drama brought about from previous installments, so time will tell if Season 9 has more in store for fans of the show's more dramatic side. News of Richards joining the series comes as her ex-husband Charlie Sheen recently said he has been blacklisted from Hollywood.

Here is hoping Denise Richards' lovable father Irv will appear on Real Housewives. He played a pretty significant part on Denise Richards: It's Complicated. And it would be cool for him to do the same on his daughter's latest reality venture. With a successful career as an actress and model, as well as her own personal experience with reality television, Richards should hit the ground running on Real Housewives.

Not to mention, she is a fan of the franchise. So, she is likely well-versed in how a season on the show tends to unfold. First, there is relatively little drama before it all goes full-tilt when the Housewives go on their end of season trip.

If Denise Richards ends up needing any pointers, she can call upon friends of hers who are already resident Real Housewives. Richards is already close friends with Lisa Rinna, and she guest-starred on Rinna's reality series Harry Loves Lisa. She can also count Real Housewives veteran Kyle Richards, who has been on the show since it began, as a friend. Of all the interesting dynamics fans can look forward to, there is one in particular that stands out.

It will be interesting to see how Denise Richards goes high-heel to high-heel with Lisa Vanderpump, among others. Richards is the only new Housewife this season, meaning she will be on the show with seasoned pros. Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave is the newest addition with one season under her glamorous belt. Season 9 is sizing up to be a fun one!

Reality television has been delivering some significant headlines this week, and one of the latest comes from Bravo's Real Housewives franchise. The Beverly Hills edition of the show is apparently looking for a new cast member to join the series' Season 9 ensemble. And Bond girl and Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce guest star Denise Richards is reportedly in contention for one of reality television's hottest slots. Here is what we know.

The former E! reality star is being looked at as a serious contender to join the reality series, and she has reportedly already filmed some footage alongside her children, according to E! News. The same report also suggests that if Denise Richards joins Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she will be the only new cast member to join Season 9. For those wondering, this would not be Richards' first reality show rodeo. The actress previously starred in her own E! reality series Denise Richards: It's Complicated. The show ended after two seasons.

For those who watched the show, they know that it was a fun and breezy watch. And given Denise Richards' engaging personality, it is easy to surmise from watching that she would be an excellent fit for Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. As that show chronicled, the 47-year-old mother of three has experienced her share of heartache through the years and survived it.

All told, Denise Richards would be a wonderful addition to the roster of Real Housewives. Richards could definitely hold her own with the cast and offer another dynamic personality to the ensemble. It is a win-win for everyone, so hopefully, it happens.

Like many of the series' cast members, Denise Richards has also appeared on Dancing with the Stars, and she's friends with potential Real Housewives co-star Lisa Rinna. Richards even guest starred on Rinna's former reality show, Harry Loves Lisa. Rinna's BFF Eileen Davidson left Real Housewives of Beverly Hills following Season 7, although she appeared in an episode of the show's most recent season. Richards could slip right into Team Rinna.

One can hope that Denise Richards' scene-stealing father Irv will also appear on the reality show. He was one of the many highlights of the show It's Complicated, and it would be great to see him back in action on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, as well. If Denise Richards ends up joining the series, the RHOBH may be in for one of its best seasons yet. For now, we wait to see if this casting tidbit comes to official fruition. Here is hoping!

If it keeps with tradition, the ninth season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills should premiere sometime this fall on Bravo, so stay tuned. For new television shows coming soon, check out CinemaBlend's guide to TV's summer premieres.

Even the most beloved performers have made movies they shouldn’t be proud of. Sometimes a movie just doesn’t work out the way an actor thought it would, or they simply needed a paycheck. We’re still mourning the death of actor Paul Walker from his untimely death back in 2014, but some of his early work remains comedy gold that we cannot get enough of. A trailer for one of Walker’s earlier films has just surfaced, and it involves having his brain transplanted into a robot dinosaur. Take a moment for that to sink in, and check out the trailer below to see for yourself.

If that trailer doesn’t promise an absolutely perfect movie then I don’t know what will. Tammy and the T-Rex starred Denise "Worst Bond Girl Ever" Richards and Paul Walker as the titular couple way back in the 1990s when the two were still up-and-coming actors. The trailer starts out like a typical high school drama, with Walker and Richards flirting, dating, and getting into the sort of youthful trouble one could expect. However, after Walker’s character is murdered, he has his brain taken by a scientist and placed into the body of a giant, robotic Tyrannosaurus Rex.

It goes without saying that Tammy and the T-Rex looks amazing for all of the wrong reasons. The acting is deplorable, the production values are terrible, and the overall narrative of the film makes absolutely no sense. Having said that, I’m prepared to spend all week searching the Internet for a copy of this movie. I must see it. It maintains all of the low-quality charm that has made movies like Samurai Cop, The Room, and Trolls 2 into modern classics.

Tammy and the T-Rex might represent a blemish on Paul Walker’s acting resume, but it’s not what he will be remembered for. The late action star went on to great things in the Fast and the Furious franchise after paying his dues in this atrocity of a movie, and – if nothing else—we think he would likely be laughing with us if he could see this trailer right now.

If you haven’t checked out the trailer for Tammy and the T-Rex above, seriously do yourself a favor and watch it. It looks like a terrible movie, but the sort of terrible movie that you and your friends will want to watch again and again.

Brooke Mueller claims she doesn’t want her children staying with Denise Richards because she’s worried about them spending more time with their dad Charlie Sheen. If the Anger Management actor is to be believed, however, Brooke’s real motivation for trying to move the kids to her brother’s house actually has everything to do with money.

According to TMZ, Sheen sends Mueller $55,000 a month in child support to be the primary caregiver for their four-year-old twins Max and Bob. With the actress in rehab and no longer looking after the boys, however, she’s not legally entitled to any of that money, unless the kids are watched by someone in her family—like her brother.

Neither Denise/ Charlie nor Brooke has presented their side to the court yet, but rumors are swirling about potential arguments. Apparently, Brooke plans to allege Denise simply wants the kids so she can have the money, but if she does, that probably won’t work very well considering Denise reportedly hasn’t taken nor asked for any money from Charlie to watch his other two kids. As for Denise and Charlie, they’re reportedly in possession of text messages Brooke sent in which the jewelry maker allegedly states she really needs her former actor husband’s child support checks.

By all accounts, Denise is a very good mother. In fact, Brooke has apparently said as much on several occasions. I get why she wouldn’t want to lose out on so much money until she gets the kids back, but from an outside perspective, it sure as hell sounds like the boys are better off with Denise than Brooke’s brother who they reportedly don’t even really know.

When the Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services decided to take Brooke Mueller’s kids away from her home, four-year-olds Max and Bob were driven to Charlie Sheen’s other ex-wife Denise Richards’ house. This came as a bit of a surprise to some observers because Brooke was reportedly miffed the last time she was in rehab about Denise planning to take the boys to family day on the set of Anger Management. This time around, however, her attitude is apparently very different.

According to TMZ, sources close to Mueller are saying the jewelry maker is very happy about where the children ended up. She reportedly thinks Denise is a great mother and knows she will take great care of the boys. The fact that the arrangement will also allow the kids to spend time with their half-sisters is a bonus, and altogether, Denise far outweighs the other options which include Sheen himself or Brooke’s mother.

Charlie, Brooke, Denise and their shared personal life has been a hot topic of conversation for years. Given the former Two And A Half Men star’s fame level and the overall weirdness, it’s not really a surprise people have been so interested. That being said, there are kids involved; so, the stakes here are more than just punchlines. I fundamentally think Denise’s house is the right place for Max and Bob right now. Hopefully, after their mother gets her act together, however, her home will be just as warm, loving and inviting as where they’re staying now.

We’ll keep you updated.

Yesterday, the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services paid a visit to Brooke Mueller and decided the jewelry maker was not fit to look after her twin four-year-old boys Max and Bob. Consequently, they were yanked out of the house, but instead of being taken to their father, Charlie Sheen, the boys were ushered to Sheen’s other ex-wife Denise Richards.

The former Bond Girl has looked after the boys in the past. For the time being, she’ll do the same, but until a formal hearing is held next week, there’s no telling whether Denise will be appointed their long-term guardian.

One the one hand, many observers are convinced the healthiest place for the kids to be is with Richards. That’ll keep them extremely close to their father, and it’ll allow them to live with their half sisters in an environment that is, by all accounts, extremely stable and loving. On the other hand, however, it seems a little strange for them to move in with someone who they have no blood relation to. Brooke’s mother is very much in the picture, and Charlie has really gotten his act together over the last few years. Either of them, hypothetically, would make suitable caregivers, at least in the short-term.

I think Denise is a great choice, but I want to know what you think. Should the kids end up with her until Brooke gets her act together, or should someone else be chosen in the interim? Let us know your thoughts by voting in the poll below…

Brooke Mueller is heading back to rehab for the nineteenth time. Best known as one of Charlie Sheen’s ex-wives and the mother to his twin boys, the jewelry maker has battled drug and alcohol problems for much of her life. She was found passed out late last week and rushed to the hospital. She was released within the hour, but clearly, the event served as the wake-up call that she needed to work on curbing her intake of Adderall.

According to TMZ, Mueller has decided to leave her children with Denise Richards while she’s away. On paper, leaving your children with the ex-wife of your ex-husband might sound ludicrous, but given the circumstances, it’s actually the smart move. The actress is reportedly a great mother who is easy to get along with and who is on great terms with Sheen. She took care of Mueller’s kids the last time she checked into rehab, and she’ll definitely do a good job this time too.

Without anything to worry about with her children, Mueller now needs to focus on getting better. She’s had plenty of opportunities before, but there’s no reason why this time can’t prove to be the impetus for real change. Her children need a mother who is sober and in control, and she needs to learn that life is far more rewarding when it’s moved through with a clear head.

Pop Blend’s sincerest thoughts go out to Brooke as she tries to get better.
