Losing virginity at 35
Writing in her memoir, Rebel revealed that she was a late bloomer and lost her virginity well into her thirties. "I was either so innocent, in my teens, or so busy making myself look grotesquely unattractive for comedic purposes, that no romantic opportunity ever presented itself," she penned.

And then it just happens. I finally have sex. It feels amazing. I go to the bathroom and high-five myself. I like my new wild sexual self."
Working with Sacha Baron Cohen
Rebel famously worked with Sacha Baron Cohen on the 2016 movie The Brothers Grimsby. In her book, she recalls how the 52-year-old actor made her feel "humiliated" when he allegedly asked her to perform a lewd act - something that the comedian and actor denies.
Rebel claims she was asked to do full-frontal nudity for the movie but used a body double for the scenes. She recently named the actor and writer as the film star she claimed caused issues with her and tried to stop her from mentioning him in her memoir. However, she told fans she "will not be bullied or silenced by high-priced lawyers" as she revealed him as the previously unidentified "massive a**hole".

In her book, she pens: "The movie bombed, which to me was karma enough. I’m not about canceling anybody and that’s not my motivation for sharing this story. I’m sharing my story now because the more women talk about things like this, hopefully the less it happens.”
Ozempic weight loss
Speaking in an interview ahead of the release of her memoir, Rebel made a shocking confession. The actress, who famously lost 80lbs in 2020, admitted that she experimented with the diabetes drug Ozempic.
Speaking to the Sunday Times, she said: "Someone like me could have a bottomless appetite for sweets, so I think those drugs can be good." She did however note that she is not taking it anymore.
She thinks Adele doesn't like her
In an excerpt from her book, Rebel talks about her relationship with Adele and explains why she thinks that the British-born singer doesn’t like her.
Talking about playing Fat Amy in Pitch Perfect, the actress noted how she and Adele were often compared to one another. "Some actresses would get offended if I called them plus-size in this book, so I have to be careful with what I say,” Rebel writes.

She then noted how Adele would always walk off quickly if they ran into each other at events, adding: "As if my fatness might rub off on her if I were near her for more than thirty second. That she didn’t like being compared to ‘Fat Amy.'"
