Gwyneth Paltrow agreed to drop a juicy bit of gossip in an interview as she revealed which of her famous boyfriends was better between the sheets.
Fancy a bit of tea? Don't bother boiling the water - Paltrow has got you covered.
The actor wasn't afraid to get personal when she recently appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast, and host Alex Cooper acknowledged the fact that Paltrow has a pretty impressive roster of exes.

While the rest of us can reminisce about the teenage crush we were convinced was the love of our life, Paltrow has not only Brad Pitt in her dating history, but also Ben Affleck.
Pitt came first, striking up a relationship with Paltrow in 1994 which later developed into an engagement.
The pair called things off in 1997, and Paltrow later started dating Affleck for a period of three years.
A lot has happened since then, with Paltrow going on to marry Coldplay's Chris Martin, with who she shares 18-year-old daughter Apple and 17-year-old son Moses.
Meanwhile, Affleck has famously gone on to tie the knot with Jennifer Lopez, and Pitt is now in a relationship with jewelry designer Ines de Ramon.
All of the stars will have changed a lot over the last few decades - potentially even picking up some new moves in the bedroom while they were at it - but Cooper was keen to learn which of her famous former boyfriends Paltrow considered to be the best in bed.
"That's really hard."
That's what she said.
Literally - that's what Paltrow said on the podcast, before going on to explain that her relationships with Affleck and Pitt were both different.
"Brad was major chemistry, love-of-your-life at the time," she explained. "Ben was technically excellent."
Elsewhere in the interview, Paltrow recalled how Pitt popped the question when they got engaged in 1996.
"One night we were on the balcony of this house we were renting in this little town in Argentina," she said. "I wish I remembered exactly what he said, but he proposed, it was fantastic, I was thrilled. We had talked about it, but I was surprised in the moment, I remember that. I must have been 24.”
When it came to calling it quits, Paltrow admitted the break up was 'really hard', but 'the right thing at that time'.
While playing along to Cooper's game of 'Ben or Brad', Paltrow also credited both actors with being 'good kissers', and described Pitt as being the more romantic of the two.
However, Affleck was more likely to make Paltrow laugh - though the pair were also more likely to get into an argument, Paltrow claimed.
"I can't believe my daughter's listening to this," the star added at one point.
Paltrow officially split from Martin in 2016, after having 'consciously uncoupled' from the singer in 2014.
In 2018, she married her current husband, TV writer Brad Falchuk.
