You see and hear a lot of racy stories in Hollywood, be it in movies or in real life. You also hear about an actor’s addiction to drugs or alcohol. You also learn about their family drama. Sometimes, it may seem that these Hollywood stars are sharing too much information. However, can these stars help it? Their fans want to know more about their idols and the press will do everything they can to get a story.

Learning about a superstar’s first time is intriguing; Although, it is even more surprising to hear about an artist choosing to save his or her virginity before getting hitched.

After all, most of these artists start their Hollywood careers at such an early age. They get exposed to the industry for such a long time and some of them might even feel they have to belong to the “crowd”.

Hence, you might consider virgin artists a rarity in the entertainment industry. That may or may not be the case, but there are still those in Hollywood who feel that virginity is a special thing; something that must be given to only the husband or wife.

In some instances, there are stars who have realized the sanctity of marriage after failed relationships. They are those whom you might call born again virgins, people who vow celibacy until they re-marry.

The model turned actress shares that she doesn’t care what men think about her being celibate in relationship. She maintains that men she dates should respect her choice.

The Friends superstar married at 32 and it was rumoured that she had saved herself for marriage before doing the nasty. Wow! That is a great feat, isn’t it? However, is this even true?

In a world where racy material sells, it is pretty hard to believe that someone has lasted staying celibate up until her thirties before giving up her V card; especially if it is someone as beautiful as Lisa Kudrow. Some have even shared that they landed in casting couches in some actresses’ most controversial auditions.

However, Lisa Kudrow has gone on Jay Leno’s show to set the record straight. It seems that she has been misinterpreted during one of her interviews. Kudrow maintains though that her virginity “was something I had decided was very precious, something that I owned, to give away. It was an honor I was bestowing on a young man, and he had to be worthy of it.”

Lady Gaga adds that it is ok not to engage in a physical relationship; that it’s ok to get to know people first before getting intimate.

However, Lady Gaga hasn’t been able to keep her promise. In 2011, the Bad Romance singer admitted to getting some action. We’re not judging. It’s her life and she’s entitled to do what she wants as long as nobody gets hurt. Besides, her staying celibate has been hears by a lot of her fans, who probably took her advice at some point.

11. Kevin Jonas

In addition, Nicole Kidman has recently confirmed that she was once engaged to the rock and roll superstar. Incidentally, the Australian beauty worked alongside Lenny’s daughter, Zoe Kravitz, for the HBO series Big Little Lies.

Considering that Lenny Kravitz is a ladies man, it’s not surprising that he has fathered a daughter. However, he now vowed that he will be abstaining from intercourse until he gets married.

9. Hilary Duff

Lizzie McGuire aka Hilary Duff once said in an interview that she’s going to give away her V-card after she walks down the aisle. She further added that her virginity is one of the things she likes about herself. Hilary also shared that she did think about intercourse when she was younger and it was tough having an older boyfriend because people assumed she was getting it on with her then boyfriend Good Charlotte lead vocalist Joel Madden.

However, Duff has cheekily revealed in a recent Cosmopolitan interview, “I had a 26-year-old boyfriend. So everyone can make their own assumptions about what I was doing.” Hmmm… that’s a bit contradicting to her previous interviews, right?
