Remember the iconic food poisoning scene from Bridesmaids? Well, one of its stars, Rebel Wilson has revealed she went through something very similar in real life.
The 41-year-old actress explained that not long after the release of the hit 2011 comedy she was forced to make an emergency toilet stop on someone's front garden.
She opened up about the seriously embarrassing incident on a recent episode of Brittany Hockley and Laura Byrne’s podcast, Life Uncut .
As part of the duo's ‘Accidentally Unfiltered’ segment of the episode, she was asked to share a cringeworthy story from her past - and she definitely delivered.

She explained that it all began on a 'down day', where she consumed a "whole pizza" and a two-litre bottle of Pepsi, in the hopes of making herself feel better.
Admitting it left her feeling "more sad and depressed" than before, she decided to go out on a walk "to fix this."
"Anyone who is an emotional eater or struggles with food might understand," she begins.
"I go on the hike, and it’s hiking uphill, and I was feeling very sluggish after eating, like, probably thousands of calories,” she explained, adding that she had an an "instant feeling" that she needed to go to the toilet.
"It hit me, it was all inside – and it just had to come out,” she said, describing her appearance at the time as "feral."
Panicking that she wouldn't make it home in time, and too mortified to knock on someone's door, she said: "So I thought, 'I’m going to have to go in someone’s lawn.'
"Then I saw this nice house … It had a nice front garden, nicely-mowed grass, and I just thought: 'that’s the one.'"
After squatting behind a bush, she saw a car pull up.
She recalled: "I’m still squatting on the front lawn, it’s so disgusting, so my mind goes, 'If they come and saw something, I’m just going to scream that I’m pregnant.'"
Thankfully for Rebel, the driver made his way to the next door and she was able to get away without being caught.
