If you thought celebrities were too glamorous to eat tubs of ice cream while lying on their couches watching "The Real Housewives of Whatever" ... then you were wrong.


While conducting our #nofilter challenge with dozens of stars[1] , HuffPost Celebrity discovered that no matter how A-list the celebrity, they still like to indulge in their guilty pleasures[2] -- which tend to include lots of food, lots of drinks and lots (and lots) of reality TV.


Check out some of the unexpected celebrity guilty pleasures below:

  • Khloe Kardashian


    "I love watching 'Golden Sisters' on OWN."




  • Alyson Hannigan


    "I’m trying to be healthy, so my guilty pleasures are no longer sugar and candy, which they used to be. So I’d say my guilty pleasure would be bad television, crappy reality television, like 'Real Housewives.' Not all of the 'Housewives,' but a couple of them, I have to confess. It’s shameful to admit."




  • Emmy Rossum


    "All food. Gluten-free and high in butter. Gluten-free whoopee pies are amazing."




  • Nick Wechsler


    "Porn … and murder. Yeah, killing people while watching porn. No, no, let’s see … one of my guilty pleasures, and I’ve said this a bunch of times which is insane that I even put this out there, is 'America’s Next Top Model.' I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I love it."




  • Camila Alves


    "Chips and salsa and guacamole."




  • Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino


    "My guilty pleasure ... Miley Cyrus."




  • Alyssa Milano


    "I don’t really feel guilty about this, but I do need to have some dark chocolate every night before I go to sleep."




  • Julie Bowen


    "My guilty pleasure is probably a combination that involves my couch, it involves maybe 'Project Runway' and Nilla Wafers, and that’s that. I’m not that out there and on the edge, but generally my life is kind of in fast forward and it requires so much energy that my guiltiest pleasure is when I’m lying still, watching something that requires very little thought and eating sugar."




  • Taylor Schilling


    "My guilty pleasure is I like to watch a lot of HGTV. I really like watching design shows about houses, like extreme homes."




  • Jennifer Love Hewitt


    "The wonderful thing about doing red carpets when you’re pregnant is instead of sucking on a piece of ice and drinking chicken broth before you walk out there, you actually have to eat a full meal because otherwise you get really dizzy and not nice, so I’ve been able to eat before the red carpets. Yes, awesome!"




  • Tim McGraw


    "Cheeseburgers. I like everything on them."




  • Nick Jonas


    "I don’t know if I have a guilty pleasure. I’m sort of pretty wide open when it comes to why I like certain things. I love the show 'Nashville,' I mean that’s a show that’s pretty incredible. I don’t know if it’s a guilty pleasure, but I think it’s great."




  • Kelly Bensimon


    "I don’t really have a guilty pleasure … my life is a guilty pleasure."




  • Joey Lawrence


    "Pizza and chocolate chip cookies."




  • Jewel


    "'Murder She Wrote' marathons."




  • Nick Cannon


    "Kung-Fu movies."




  • Rob Lowe


    "First of all I have a philosophy on guilty pleasures. I really don’t believe in them. I think the phrase 'guilty pleasure' has done more to lower the bar of entertainment than anything that I can imagine. I think if it’s guilty, then there’s a good reason you’re feeling guilty. And it probably means you shouldn’t watch it. Like I’m not a 'Sharkadoo,' 'Sharknado,' whatever guy. I’m not into guilty pleasures and I’m not into hate-watching. Life is too short, watch good sh*t people, please for the love of all things holy."




  • Nikki Reed


    "Anything sweet -- chocolate. Too much chocolate."




  • Naya Rivera


    "Reality television."




  • Curtis Stone


    "Probably tacos."




  • Stacy Keibler


    "Getting a massage!"




  • Whitney Port


    "Probably the amount that I would go for manicures and pedicures. It’s something that I feel like I always need and allow myself to do because it makes me feel good."




  • Chris Noth


    "Wine."




  • Russell Brand


    "I don’t have guilty pleasures. If something gives you pleasure, don’t feel guilty about it as long as you’re not harming anybody else."




  • Lauren Conrad


    "Online shopping. My biggest problem is that when I wake up and I have my emails from Gilt and all the kind of sales then that’s when I end up with all the boxes on my doorstep."




  • Lisa Vanderpump


    "Making out with Gigi [her dog] and chocolate."




  • Chris O'Donnell


    "The cheeseburger I’m going to have at P.J. Clarke's before I go to the airport is one of my guilty pleasures. Probably some oysters and cold beer."




  • Cheryl Burke


    "Sleeping a lot. After a season, I go in hiding for a week and I don't leave my room. Is that guilty? And chips -- I'm a salty-type girl. I was just talking about that to my friend the other night, how that is my guilty pleasure."




  • Ashley Benson


    "Ice cream."




  • Ashley Tisdale


    "Coffee! In the morning hot, but at the end of the day, iced."




  • Bryce Dallas Howard


    "'Keeping Up With the Kardashians.' I had never watched it, and then when I was super-pregnant I was overdue and I actually had a pretty bad injury and I got put on bed rest and I couldn’t move ... And I was like, 'I just want to watch the Kardashians, I never watched it before! I just really want to see what this is all about.' And I have since watched every single episode. I love it ... I love it."




  • Cynthia Nixon


    "I really love cheese. I can have cheese all day long every day. Pretty crazy about salted caramels as well. Also, toffee."

  • Adrian Grenier


    "Chocolate every day."

  • Joel McHale


    "Umm, ritual murder."




  • Joe Manganiello

  • Tiffani Thiessen


    "Red wine and chocolate."




  • Octavia Spencer


    "I’m a big salty person, I like salty snacks, so I love going to the movies because I get to have popcorn. But my favorite food is meatloaf and the other one is popcorn."




  • Padma Lakshmi


    "I never feel guilty about taking pleasure. <em>In anything</em>."




  • Debra Messing


    "Reese’s peanut butter cups."




  • Ian Somerhalder


    "I find myself sort of sitting in the corner by myself just consuming it … Chocolate. It makes you feel good all over. But dark, organic, the real deal that makes you high as a kite, you know?"




  • Laurie Holden


    "Pizza, pasta, burgers and chocolate."




  • Brooklyn Decker


    "Can it be like a food indulgence? Because I would say candy."




  • Brittany Snow


    "Frozen yogurt. It's like an addiction, I don't know what's happening. 'Top Chef,' I have watched every single episode, and sleeping. It's definitely a guilty pleasure. I will sleep all day, I love staying in bed with my dog and reading and not getting up and checking my phone. And that gets me into trouble because I have things to do and that's not very productive."




  • Victoria Justice


    "I love mint Milanos! I put them in the freezer so they’re frozen and crunchy. It’s delicious."




  • Minka Kelly


    "Coffee Lovers Delight at Cold Stone."

    "It'd have to be watching reality shows. Not just ours. We love 'Cake Boss' and most TLC programming. Couponing is also a guilty pleasure. As I said on the show, saving money can sometimes be better than sex."




  • Kristin Cavallari


    "'Real Housewives.' I pretty much watch all of them, but the 'Real Housewives of Orange County' are my favorite."




  • Busy Philipps


    "You’re going to think I’m so boring … I don’t believe in guilty pleasures. If you enjoy something, there’s nothing guilty about it."




  • Neil Patrick Harris


    "Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups."
