Nikki Glaser was always swiping right on different stars — like Ben Affleck — during her Raya days.
“When I used to be on Raya and [Ben] would come across, very concentrated check mark — yes,” Glaser, 40, told Gwyneth Paltrow, who dated Affleck, 52, in the ‘90s, during an episode of “The Goop Podcast,” released on Tuesday, March 25. “And, like, never getting it back.”
The comedian added, “There are so many celebrities that I saw on Raya.”
This fact dumbfounded Paltrow, who has been married to Brad Falchuk since 2018. (Paltrow was romantically linked to Affleck from 1997 to 2000, before marrying Chris Martin in 2003. She and Martin divorced in 2016, and Paltrow moved on with Falchuk.)
Conscious coupling! Gwyneth Paltrow has had her share of high-profile relationships over the years, dating fellow A-listers like Ben Affleck, Brad Pitt, Chris Martin and more. The Shakespeare in Love star began dating Pitt in 1994 after meeting him while on the set of the thriller Se7en. The couple got engaged in December 1996 only […]
“Celebrities on Raya?” she asked. Glaser continued, “Oh my God,” before dropping a celebrity’s name — which was bleeped out during the episode. (Social media commenters have started to speculate who they were discussing.)
“I think [redacted]’s face came up for me so many times,” Glaser said. “Multiple times.”
Paltrow responded, “That would have been a good one. He’s gorgeous.” Now, Us is dying to know who she mentioned.
“I’m sure he just didn’t see my profile, even though I clicked on his a million [times],” Glaser continued. “They’ll keep serving up the same people, again and again, for some reason.”
She explained, “This was years and years ago — I don’t want to put anything out there — but like, ‘Yes, yes, yes, yes.’ I know for a fact he had to have seen my profile and gone, ‘Nope, no. Why do they keep?’ — because sometimes they send people that they keep saying no to.”
Emma McIntyre/Getty Images for Netflix Comedian Nikki Glaser and her boyfriend, Chris Convy, have been on and off for a decade. “I think the off-and-on is [because] I’m just terrified of committing to anything forever,” Glaser said during a May 2024 appearance on the Howard Stern Show. “I think committing to something forever makes me […]
Glaser said she would have matched with the mystery star “if he was interested” in her.
“Now he regrets it,” Paltrow stated. Glaser agreed, adding, “I’m sure now, but like why not then?”
Glaser is no longer on dating apps, however, as she’s been back on with boyfriend Chris Convy. As the lore goes, Glaser has been on and off with Convy since 2013, after meeting on the set of her MTV series, Nikki & Sara Live.
They’ve openly broken up “probably five times in 10 years,” Glaser has revealed publicly. They’re currently in an on period, it seems.
“Our breaks have gone from maybe two days to one was three years long,” Glaser shared on The Howard Stern Show in May 2024. “He’s broken up with me. In the beginning of our relationship, I think I wanted a boyfriend so badly, I really misrepresented who I was. I thought getting a boyfriend meant being agreeable and just doing everything, never fighting [and] never saying, ‘I don’t like what you just said,’ because then he’d be like, ‘Well, that’s the way I am, bye.’”
