Celebrities Who Were Roommates: Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag, More!

It may be hard to imagine, but even celebrities have roommates from time to time.

As teens, Justin Timberlake and Ryan Gosling lived together while appearing on The Mickey Mouse Club. During a 2011 appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the “Can’t Stop the Feeling” crooner opened up about how their living situation came to be.

“[Ryan’s] mother had to keep her job in Canada the second year that we were on the television show, and my mom was his guardian for like six months,” Timberlake said at the time. “So, we actually lived together when we were that age ... We were probably a little closer than the rest of the kids that were on the show because, ya know, we had to share a bathroom.”

Fans of The Hills may recall stars Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag living together during the show’s earlier seasons. Sometime after Montag moved out of their shared apartment, the longtime pals got entangled in a years-long feud.

In 2015, Montag spoke exclusively to Us Weekly about the pair’s dynamic after their beef. “I spent years pretending to like her for a living,” she previously explained. “It was literally my job to deal with her, and it wasn’t pleasant … I had nothing to do with her problems. I even tried to help her.”

The “Speidi Podcast” cohost added, “The fact is, she lied about me and tried to destroy my life, yet I was the one painted as the villain so the show could have her as the good guy.”

Meanwhile, Lea Michele and Dianna Agron lived together during their time on Glee. Speaking to Access Hollywood in 2011, the I Am Number Four actress revealed what their living dynamic was like. “Oh, it was so fun,” she said at the time, noting that it was a “six-month living situation” and that Michele is “very neat.”
