Dax Shepard is finally setting the record straight on the wild rumor that he and his wife, Kristen Bell, are secretly the King and Queen of Hollywood Swinging.
During the Season 5 premiere of The Drew Barrymore Show, where the topic of the hour was apparently tabloid gossip, Dax had to laugh off the idea that they were throwing swinging soirΓ©es like it was a new fitness craze.
βApparently, we were supposedly hosting these extravagant swinger parties,β he said, chuckling. βAnd you know whatβs the best part? We got bombarded with texts from friends asking, βHey, how come we werenβt invited to your wild swinger bash?β Like, βWhatβs up with that?ββ
Dax mentioned that while their friends were just having a good-natured laugh because they know the truth, he really appreciated the playful banter.
He recalled, βReceiving a text from Jimmy Kimmel, who was like, βIβm deeply hurt that Molly and I didnβt make the swinger guest list,β was just hilarious.β
When asked if thereβs a fantasy couple theyβd want to share a bed withβbecause apparently that’s a normal question to askβDax just shrugged and said no way.
βThere are lots of hot couples out there, but no, weβre not looking to get into any swinger situations. You know who weβre actually obsessed with? Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen,β he gushed. βThey are so adorable together; itβs like we want to move into their marriage and just live there. Itβs not about Kristen wanting to drag me into their life or me wanting to drag herβitβs more like we just want to be their third wheel!β
