Why Kelly Ripa stopped drinking, the Bella Twins fight back against IVF rumors and Kate and Oliver Hudson share family secrets

Plus, Gwyneth Paltrow hosted a makeup-free dinner party on Wednesday night, with a decadent menu

From no drinking whatsoever, to smoking weed with celebrity parents and  unfiltered cocktails without a drop of makeup on, the theme of Thursday's Pop Break on What's New is having a good time.

Digital anchor Stephanie Haney breaks down the stories topping Hollywood headlines, including which famous twins say it's just not true that they meticulously planned their dual pregnancy.

First up, LIVE! with Kelly and Ryan co-host Kelly Ripa has been sober for almost three years, and now we know why. She told People Magazine she stopped drinking after doing a dry month with her girlfriends, right around the time that Ryan Seacrest became her co-host.

Seacrest, who joined the show in May 2017, loves to joke it's all because of him, but that's just not true, according to Ripa. 

Ripa told People that when she finished her sober month, she just never went back to it because she simply felt better without the booze.

WWE Diva superstar twins Nikki and Brie Bella are putting a stop to rumors that they both underwent in vitro fertilization just so they could get  pregnant at the same time.  

On the latest episode of The Bellas Podcast, the sisters said neither of their pregnancies were even planned, and this is "just what God wanted." 

When the ladies give birth, it will be Nikki's first child and Brie's second, with her husband, Daniel Bryan.

Today on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Kate and Oliver Hudson revealed the A-lister who once scaled their fence to get in to a party while their parents were away.

Turns out it was Tom Cruise, and the scare almost sent nervous Kate over the edge, until she realized it was him.

And while playing a game called Truth or Shot, the Sibling Revelry podcast co-hosts revealed another family secret.  Both Kate and Oliver have smoked weed with their parents, they revealed while giving each other a high-five.

Kate and Oliver's biological parents are Goldie Hawn and Bill Hudson, and the two were raised by their mom and her long-time partner, Kurt Russel.

It sounds like the Hawn-Russell-Hudson family was ahead of its time.

And from ahead of their time to timeless beauties, Gwyneth Paltrow hosted a makeup-free dinner party on Wednesday night, with a decadent menu featuring king salmon steaks, chicken with roast grapes, long-cooked kale and sweet potato frites.

Rachel Zoe, Samantha Ronson and Demi Moore were just a few of the Hollywood elite who ditched their foundation and concealer in exchange for unfiltered girl-time, while Paltrow interviewed LA-based artist Alexandra Grant under the stars.
