Carmen Electra, Kate Upton or any number of Playboy centerfolds are who you generally think of when imagining whose picture is hanging on the walls of horny college guys across the country. But the would-be King of England wasn’t like the other boys. There were no buxom babes of the ‘60s on Charles III’s walls at Cambridge, but rather one iconic star of the stage and screen: Barbra Streisand. The EGOT-winning Funny Girl described learning that she was the object of the then-prince’s desire in her new memoir My Name Is Barbra. Charles said the What’s Up, Doc? actress was his “only pinup” and allegedly described her as “devastatingly attractive” with “great sex appeal.” Streisand said she was grateful to not know that when they first met “because it would’ve made (her) self-conscious.” 

In other royal news, Prince William was named the “Sexiest Bald Man of 2023.” If that honor sounds fake, it’s because it basically is, considering it’s just a U.K.-based marketing agency conducting a study. But seriously, there’s an entire roster of bald men that your mother probably has the hots for, and I can guarantee you that William isn’t anywhere near it. To reach its conclusion, the study looked at how many times names were searched alongside the terms “shirtless” or “naked,” and considered other factors like height, net worth and scalp shine. Stanley Tucci, you will be avenged. 

All the while, the timeline has carried us through the week and gotten us to Friday with hilarious riffs and jokes. Today’s funny tweets include those about a Justin Timberlake hit coming back to haunt us, a president ready to ball out and the aftermath of listening to Shania Twain.
