In a moment that could only be described as both ridiculous and relatable, Kristen Bell found herself asking Doctor Mike if drinking her own urine was a good idea. This eyebrow-raising inquiry came after her co-star Justine Lupe convinced her that it was a miraculous health trend. Dr. Mikhail Varshavski, usually known for valuable health advice, had to inform Bell that this“wellness”suggestion was indeed insane.
What makes this story even better is that the entire thing was part of an elaborate April Fool’s prank set up by Lupe. From brewing a fake urine concoction to crafting an extensive backstory about its benefits, the prank unfolded with impressive creativity. Bell, realizing the lengths her friend went to just for a laugh, expressed feeling loved when the joke was revealed. Friendship knows no bounds, especially when it inspires questionable wellness practices!
It’s a lighthearted reminder that among the wellness trends out there, some might be best left untouched. After all, how many celebrity pranks revolve around drinking pee? It turns out, in Hollywood, sometimes laughter—and some strange antics—really is the best medicine!
