Writing your name on a pack of Ramen, splitting the bills right down the middle, arguing over who gets the bigger room—having a roommate can be a lot of fun, but it can also be a big pain. Especially if your roommate comes home drunk at 4 am and eats the bag of peanut butter cookies your mom sent you because you haven’t been home in a year. Ahem…moving on.

Believe it or not, celebs start off their working lives the way most of us do—by rooming with someone to save money. Here are a few celebrities who were roommates together before they got famous.

What are the odds that your roommate is going to become a future celebrity? Now what are the odds that the both of you will one day become famous? These are the famous men and women who once had to share rent with other famous men and women. Some roomed together before they were famous and others met up in Hollywood and decided to move in together. These are the celebrity roommates.

Lea Michele and Dianna Agron: These Glee starlets lived together in the early days of Glee in downtown Los Angeles. They said living together was super easy because they are both vegans. Even though Lea seems like a diva on the show, there was no drama off screen, "We have these smackdowns at work and come home and are like, 'Wasn't it so funny when we were fighting today? Let's make cookies!"

Lindsay Lohan and Raven Symone: Wait what? I guess these two bonded over their Disney roots and early in the 2000's these two actually lived together, sort of. Raven said in 2008 that LiLo barely even lived at the apartment...

Ah, the dreaded cul-de-sac of hair. Balding is to dudes what wrinkles are to women. Some guys choose to try and pull it off, but for most, balding is not a desired look. Especially when you're in Hollywood and you've spent the better part of your twenties in the spotlight, being chased after by tons of women.

Some celebs choose to age gracefully, and just shave it all off or do what they can with it. But others refuse to let nature take its course and decide to get plugs or hairpieces. We're counting down 5 celebs who might not be, but probably are, wearing toupees.

John Travolta: Either John Travolta is balding, or his hair magically grows whenever there's a red carpet event. Earlier this month, Travolta was seen not just balding—but bald.

Jeremy Piven must have run out of 20 year-olds to hit on so he's moving on to 18 year-olds--specially one very famous 18 year-old--Miley Cyrus.

Miley and Jeremy are currently in New Orleans shooting So Undercover together and he's being So Public about how he feels about Miley.

“She’s kind of amazing. There’s something so incredibly refreshing about someone who is exactly who they are. There’s nothing pretentious about her. She’s this force. She loves to laugh.”

“I think I must be an 18-year-old girl because we got along really well,” Piven told E! News. "It was just so much fun. I had so much fun with her and we had great chemistry. It was really really weird — we’re like polar opposites.

The stars were out in full-force last night! The Golden Globes is known as the award show where the celebs lets loose, have an extra glass of champagne, and even go public with their otherwise secret relationship. We noticed a few new flirty couples at the after parties, and here’s the scoop:

In what may be the oddest pairing we’ve seen in months, Entourage star Jeremy Piven was photographed arm-in-arm with January Jones from Mad Men!

Photogs snapped pics of them leaving the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood, and they immediately separated upon learning they’d been caught. Perhaps they were consoling each other after they both lost in their categories at the Globes?

Also trying to avoid the paparazzi last night were True Blood’s Alexander Skarsgard and Kate Bosworth. On the red carpet yesterday, Alex insisted to E!, “I’m single.”

But he looked anything but at the HBO after-party last night! Though the two arrived separately, it wasn’t long before they were swapping spit. Hollywood Life reports that while Alex schmoozed and mingled, Kate stood quietly in a corner with another True Blood star Ryan Kwanten. But the two were quickly making out and whispering in each other’s ears. They reportedly left together as well.

Looks like we have two budding Hollywood relationships on our hands! We’ll be sure to bring you the details as they surface! We’re taking bets on which one will last longer!
Imagine being able to plant one on Charlize Theron?! One lucky lady got to make out with the gorgeous actress, all in the name of charity. Charlize was taking part in an auction last night for the charity OneXOne in San Francisco.

She was auctioning off a trip to South Africa with World Cup tickets, a safari, and a meet-and-greet with Nelson Mandela when the bidding started to stall at $37,000, reports Us Weekly.

Charlize decided to up the ante because Jeremy Piven had just gotten a separate bid for $280,000!

Charlize told the crowd, "For f*** sake! You can do better. There is no way I am leaving here with Jeremy Piven getting a higher bid. I've got t**** for God's sake."

So Charlize decided to add a make out session with her to the package. After one man bid $135,000, a woman upped it to $140,000, and took to the stage for a 20-second kiss as the audience counted down.

"My boyfriend is not here tonight," Charlize joked. We love it! That’s a woman who is dedicated to her cause!

Matt Damon is just one of the actors who landed a coveted cameo on Entourage this season. He just wrapped filming his guest spot for the finale of the HBO hit, which will also feature NBA star LeBron James that episode.

Matt was excited to guest star, but also wanted to incorporate his commitment to a children’s charity he’s involved in. So the producers wrote it into the storyline!

Executive producer Doug Elin told TV Guide, “It wasn’t hard to get him. Matt came on the phone with me and wanted to do something that focused on his charity, One By One, which helps kids all over the world.”

The Entourage cast had nothing but nice things to say about Damon. Elin said, “LeBron and Matt have a scene together and they just kill it!”

Kevin Connolly said, “They were just amazing. wrote a scene where we’re all at the airport together. Matt was all smiles. He was definitely there to have fun.”

The show’s star, Adrian Grenier added, “The joke is that Matt is very passionate about his charity – almost in a stalkerish kind of way. becomes intimidated by his intensity. He ends up bullying Vince into giving much more than he should.”

The season finale will air October 4th. In the meantime, season 6 started last night, so queue your Tivos!
