What’s better than sharing a delicious meal and intimate conversations with your closest famous friends at the best restaurants in town? Adding some A-list musical artists to the table, perhaps? Chrissy Teigen, David Chang and Joel Kim Booster already have the model-cookbook author’s husband John Legend joining them in season one of their upcoming Freeform original Chrissy & Dave Dine Out, premiering Jan. 24, but there are some hitmakers they’d love to nosh with in the future.
“I would do Beyonce, Rihanna, Ariana Grande,” Teigen tells Billboard of the musical artists they’d want on the show. “I have shared a meal with Ariana before — that was wonderful! Just badass women, really! And Mariah Carey!”
For restaurateur and TV personality Chang, he wants to have a chance to set the record straight with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, after the Chrissy & Dave Dine Out stars make a joke about the band in the premiere episode. “It’s a compliment to be so ubiquitous! I don’t want the audience to think it’s a negative!” the Momofuku boss explains, emphasizing that they were jesting with respect. “It’s something we’re all jealous of … I would have Chris Martin just so he knows it was a loving [joke].”
Actor and comedian Kim Booster agrees, and admits they’d love to aim high for potential musical guests at the dining table for a potential next season. “Yeah, we’re punching up for sure!” he tells Billboard of wanting to have the Coldplay frontman join them for a meal. “I don’t think we’re on his radar!”
Some who is on the actor-comedian’s radar, though, is SZA, whom he’d love to have on the show because, he explains, her music is what he likes to spin at his dinner parties. “It’s such a vibe! It’s so interesting,” he gushes of the tunes by SZA, who leads in 2024 Grammy nominations with nine. “I feel like I don’t know very much about SZA, so I’d really love to have her on and really get to talk to her and get past the standard interview questions and understand her background and where she’s coming from.”
While season one of Chrissy & Dave Dine Out will have a bevy of Hollywood elite — including Jimmy Kimmel, Simu Liu, Regina Hall, Alexandra Daddario and more — there are some celebs a bit lower on the list the three stars of Freeform’s new show would be into having on the program.
“I just spoke to Scheana [Shay] — I love her. But I feel like I just got to spend time with her,” self-proclaimed Vanderpump Rules fan Teigen shares when discussing who from the hit Bravo reality show she’d want on. “I mean, Tom Sandoval, just to see whatever comes out of his mouth. I’d be so curious to hear it all! But I think Lala [Kent] and I would … I would love to hear from her the most, I think.”
Fire Island star Kim Booster wants someone a little bit less dramatic than the core VPR gang: Lisa Vanderpump’s son, Max Todd. “I would ask him why he’s still a busboy!” he laughs. “His mom owns the restaurant! What are you doing bussing people!”
Watch Teigen, Chang and Kim Booster have deep, unfiltered — and sometimes NSFW! — conversations with their celebrity friends over meals when Chrissy & Dave Dine Out premieres Jan. 24 at 10 p.m. ET on Freeform, and streaming next day on Hulu. New episodes arrive Wednesdays.

From boozy brunches to happy hour, clubbing, concerts and sporting events, alcohol has become a major part of socializing, and although alcohol use spiked during the first two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, young adults are drinking less and older adults are drinking more than in previous decades.
According to a Gallup report from last summer, drinking among adults older than age 55 increased 10 percent in the last decade, while 62 percent of adults under age 35 admit to drinking, down 10 percent from a decade ago.
If you’ve been wanting to take a break from alcohol, Dry January is a great time to get started.
Even celebrities are getting onboard with drinking less. Adele quit drinking for three months last year, the “I Drink Wine” singer revealed to a crowd during her Las Vegas residency in October 2023.
Country star Dierks Bentley revealed that he stopped drinking for two years. “A big part of it was just trying to see if I could,” the “Drunk on a Plane” singer shared with People magazine last November. “I’d been dabbling in taking breaks, but I liked the idea of being able to say you’ve done a year of sobriety. Not 30 days, not 90 days, a frigging year. That’s hard.”
R&B singer Ari Lennox closed out 2023 by celebrating one year of sobriety. In a since-deleted Instagram post, the “Pressure” singer said that alcohol helped her cope with a fear of flying. “I decided December 18th, 2022, would be the day I got clean. You know what I realized after [one] year of many sober flights? I never needed alcohol to get through the flight.” Lennox went on to share that her “toxic relationship with alcohol” left her “stagnant with closed eyes, hindering my growth and my healing.”
Katy Perry, who launched a line of non-alcoholic aperitifs called Des Soi in 2022, embarked on a three-month sobriety pact with fiancé Orlando Bloom last year. “We did this because he’s shooting a movie in London right now that’s taking every ounce of his focus, and so I wanted that opportunity to be supportive,” Perry said last June. “It’s really hard to do anything — whether that’s doing a cleanse or a reset — unless your partner’s doing it. So, doing it together makes it so much easier.”
Like Perry, Zayn Malik has also entered the world of non-alcoholic drinks. The pop star became co-owner of the mocktail brand Mixoloshe last year.
Regardless of whether you’re taking a break from alcohol or quitting altogether, it doesn’t hurt to get a little help sticking to your goal. Apps such as Try Dry, Sober January: Dry Day Tracker, Sober Time, and SoberBuddy can help you stay on track during your sober journey.
As for your drink routine, there’s plenty of non-alcoholic beer, wine and champagne to choose from, along with non-alcoholic whiskey, vodka and tequila — and if you’re in the mood for a non-alcoholic nightcap, the “sleepy girl mocktail” is viral on TikTok.
To help you get started, we’ve rounded up a list of six, bestselling non-alcoholic drinks — including zero proof beer and tasty mocktails — to help you get through Dry January and beyond.

Not your average shades! Maluma is seeing things differently thanks to Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses.
The “Según Quién” singer, who stars in the campaign for the latest iteration of Meta‘s smart glasses, likes wearing them because they allow him to share his “unique point of view” with fans.
“They’re super simple to use and feel like the average pair of sunglasses, except now I am more present,” the 29-year-old singer explained in an email interview with Billboard before heading back home to Colombia for the holidays.

I even wore the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer during my Latin Grammys performance [last November].”
