Alien encounters: not every celebrity has had one. Well, maybe not EVERY single one. But a surprising number of stars from Hollywood have (allegedly) crossed paths with extraterrestrials! And since celebrities can't help but share their wild experiences, these stars have openly discussed their unusual alien run-ins!
In this article, we dive into a beloved genre: aliens! But there's a twist. Instead of revisiting the same old abduction stories or countless UFO sightings, let’s hear from ten celebrities as they recount their own bizarre encounters with aliens. Get ready—it’s going to be an out-of-this-world ride!
10. Post Malone
Post Malone isn’t just a one-time alien witness—he’s had multiple otherworldly experiences! The musician has been familiar with aliens for years, or at least that’s what he says. As a child, he recalled an instance when he and his cousin saw a mysterious light zip up into the sky. Then, years later in California, he claimed he spotted a group of aliens while standing on his balcony in Tarzana, a suburb of Los Angeles. And when he looked up? They were right there, above him!
A few years later, Post Malone shared his experience on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, comparing the alien sighting to a 'force field.' He explained, 'I used to live in Tarzana… and it looked kind of like, it sounds cheesy, but like a classic force field… It was kind of like a dome in a circular shape in Tarzana, looking down at the f**king city. And I’m like, ‘How did no one else see this?’ But I was there with like f**king four other people, and they saw it too.' Well, Post, maybe you all did see it, but the real question is: Were you all sober? Just a thought!
9. Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato is such a staunch believer in aliens that she even created a docuseries about searching for them. She’s also been open about her personal experiences with extraterrestrials. While some of us might be skeptical about her claims, Demi is firm in her belief. For instance, she shared a story with Kelly Clarkson about the time when three aliens reportedly visited her room while she was sleeping!
'I woke up in my room, and there were three beings,' Lovato recounted to Clarkson on her talk show. 'And then they were like, ‘Do you wanna see your planet?’ I was like, ‘Hell yeah! Let’s go!’ So I whooshed out of my room and was hovering over the planet. And then suddenly, they asked, ‘Do you wanna see our planet?’ I was like, ‘Hell yeah!’ And then I whooshed to this pink and purple planet I’ve never seen before.' Well, alright then! Do you buy that?
8. Nick Jonas
Nick Jonas, unlike Demi Lovato, was once a total skeptic when it came to aliens. As a kid, he dismissed the idea of extraterrestrials as pure nonsense. But everything changed one night when he was 14, hanging out with friends in his backyard. That evening, Nick spotted what looked like a UFO in the sky. His friends were skeptical and laughed it off, but Nick insisted on what he saw. That moment turned him into a full-fledged believer.
Years later, Nick recounted the experience on Seth Meyers's late-night show: “I’m on board with believing in aliens now. When I was 14, I was playing basketball with friends in my backyard when I saw three flying saucers. Everyone thought I was crazy, but I was convinced it was real. I looked it up online and found there were identical sightings in other states. So yeah, I’m a firm believer in aliens.”
7. Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus, like the other celebrities on this list, has a strong fascination with aliens. Arguably second only to Demi Lovato in her love for extraterrestrials, the 'Wrecking Ball' singer has been notably outspoken about her UFO encounters. One of the most memorable experiences happened while she was on tour, driving through rural California with a friend when a UFO reportedly chased them in their car. In an interview with Interview Magazine, Miley described the object: 'The best way to describe it is a flying snowplow. It had this big plow in the front and was glowing yellow. I saw it, and my friend saw it too. There were other cars on the road, and they stopped to look, so I think what I saw was real.'
Not ready to leave it at that, Billy Ray Cyrus’s daughter continued: 'I was shaken for like five days. It messed me up. I couldn’t look at the sky the same way. I thought it might come back… I didn’t feel threatened, but I did see a being sitting in the front of the craft. It looked at me, and we made eye contact. I think that’s what really freaked me out—the look in its eyes, something I couldn’t quite understand.' Creepy, right? But also kind of cool, if you think about it!
6. Fran Drescher
Fran Drescher, not only reportedly had an alien encounter early in her life, but this experience supposedly played a role in her eventual marriage to her now-ex-husband, Peter Marc. According to the star of The Nanny, both she and Peter had the exact same alien encounter before they ever crossed paths. Once they discovered their shared connection, well, it was clear that love was meant to be. Forget about Cupid or any matchmaking attempts—according to Fran, all it takes to find love is to share an alien experience!
Years later, in an interview with the Huffington Post, Fran shared her alien encounter story: 'It’s funny because Peter and I both saw [aliens] before we knew each other. We were both in junior high, driving on the road with our dads, doing the same thing. A few years later, we met, and realized we had shared the exact same experience. I think we were somehow destined to meet. We both have this scar, the exact same one, in the exact same place.' It seemed truly meant to be. It’s a shame they divorced after 21 years, though. Makes you wonder: did the aliens have a hand in that split too?
5. Kacey Musgraves
Kacey Musgraves has always had a fascination with space, which is why she’s dubbed herself 'Spacey Kacey.' It all began in her childhood when her father gave her a telescope to gaze at the stars. With all those nights spent looking up at the vast sky, Kacey certainly saw some extraordinary sights.
One of Kacey Musgraves' most memorable experiences occurred while she was at a friend’s wedding on a beach in Mexico. While everyone was focused on the ceremony and the romantic vibes, Kacey claims that a UFO appeared, flying down from the sky and hovering right over the hotel! Of course, it’s easy to chalk it up to too many tequila shots in Mexico, but Kacey insists that’s not the case.
Years later, Musgraves recounted the strange event to NME: 'I noticed something hovering above the corner of the hotel. In the night sky, it looked like the underside of a bird. It was hard to make out exactly what it was. You know how hotels sometimes have floodlights pointing up into the sky? Whatever it was, it was lit up by those.'
She went on to say: 'I was really puzzled, so I said, ‘Y’all, what’s that?’ We all watched it for a bit, and then it changed shape into an X-pattern, kind of like a windmill. It was so bizarre… Then it started glowing and doing things that no ordinary thing would do. It was insane.'
4. Lupe Fiasco
When Lupe Fiasco was a child, he had an alien encounter that would change his life forever. One night, he was peacefully sleeping when he suddenly woke up, feeling as though he was surrounded by an electrical force. He tried to move, but he couldn’t. After what seemed like an eternity, the electric sensation finally ceased. When he opened his eyes, he saw a black disc hovering outside his window. Even stranger, he discovered a mysterious scar on his skin, one that hadn’t been there the day before.
Years later, during a radio show appearance, the rapper shared his alien encounter: 'When I was 11, I definitely had an extra-worldly experience. I got a scar on the bottom of my ankle, and I don’t know where it came from. I never had surgery there; I never remember falling there. I’ve done martial arts my whole life; it could be something from that… [but] I remember waking up and just being shocked like I was surrounded by all this electricity.' A truly bizarre experience, if it’s real!
3. Goldie Hawn
One day, years after a rehearsal for a dance performance, Goldie Hawn took a nap in a friend’s car. When she woke up, she was startled by a 'high-pitched sound.' Looking out the window, she thought she saw… aliens! At least, that’s what she believed in the moment.
On the Time To Walk podcast, Hawn recalled: 'I saw these two or three triangular-shaped heads. They were silver in color, slash for a mouth, tiny little nose, no ears. They were pointing at me, pointing at me in the car as if they were discussing me like I was a subject. And they were droning. I didn’t know if it was real or not real. And finally, I burst out of it. It was like bursting out of a forcefield. And of course, I go back to all the kids, and I went, ‘Oh, my God. I think I made contact with outer space.’'
Crazy, right? After that experience, Goldie became intrigued and started investigating what happened. She eventually connected with an astrophysicist who interviewed her, which helped her recall even more details about that unforgettable event.
She described it as the 'most benevolent, loving feeling' she had ever encountered, leaving her 'filled with light' throughout. Ultimately, she confessed on the podcast that she will likely 'never know' exactly what transpired. However, she 'kind of likes it that way,' finding the mystery more captivating than any concrete facts. We admire that perspective!
2. Tom DeLonge
Tom DeLonge, the lead singer of Blink-182, has dedicated a significant portion of his time to studying extraterrestrials. At one point, he even paused his music career to focus entirely on the topic. He later founded the 'To The Stars Academy of Arts & Sciences,' a group that includes a whole division focused on the study of unidentified flying objects. Quite impressive, right? And all of this comes from a man who has been very open about his own encounters with aliens.
One of his most remarkable experiences occurred during a camping trip near Nevada's infamous Area 51. In the dead of night, Tom awoke to find himself completely unable to move, even though he was fully conscious—though it wasn’t sleep paralysis. 'My whole body felt like it had static electricity, and I opened my eyes, and the [campfire] is still going, and there’s a conversation going on outside the tent,' the rockstar later shared with the Hollywood Reporter.
'It sounded like there were about 20 people there, talking. And immediately, my mind raced, ‘Okay, they’re at our campsite, they’re not here to harm us, they’re talking about stuff, but I can’t make out what they’re saying. But they’re working on something.’ Then I closed my eyes and woke up to find the fire had gone out, and I had lost about three hours of time.' Aliens? Or just an extraordinarily odd dream?
1. Kesha
Kesha is such a staunch believer in the existence of alien life that it actually inspired her to create an entire album about it. Her 2017 record, Rainbow, was born in part because of her personal alien experience. One of the tracks, titled 'Spaceship,' clearly indicates that she isn’t joking around. But it’s the UFO encounter she allegedly had while camping in Joshua Tree National Park, California, that really stands out.
One day, while in the remote desert wilderness, Kesha happened to glance up and noticed several UFOs hovering above her in the sky. 'I look up in the sky, and there’s a bunch of spaceships,' she recalled during an appearance on the Zach Sang Show.
'I swear to God, there were like five to seven, and I don’t know why I didn’t even try to take a picture. I just sat there, staring at them. I was sitting on a rock thinking, 'What in the hell is that?' I tried to figure it out, and then they disappeared. But then they came back. I was like, ‘Those are f**king aliens.’ They were spaceships!'
Maybe… or maybe she was under the influence of something. Or perhaps they were just secret Area 51 aircraft conducting training in the southwest desert. Who can say for sure?
