I don\u2019t know anything more about the film because her interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday got derailed by one of the more unbelievable stories I\u2019ve ever heard. And while my own synopsis feels like something I\u2019d be into, I\u2019ll probably never learn anything more about this film because, for at least the next 20 years, my brainspace will be occupied with thinking about whatever the fuck is happening with Beckinsale\u2019s daughter\u2019s boyfriend.<\/p>\n<p>The interview began, as many celebrity talk show interviews do\u2014with some witty, slightly sexual banter and, since Beckinsale is British, some well-deserved America-bashing. But the conversation took a hard pivot when Kimmel asked how old Beckinsale\u2019s daughter is (26) and whether she currently has to share her with another family for Thanksgiving. Kate revealed that yes, her daughter has a boyfriend, and he\u2019s one of five people she\u2019s screamed at in her entire life: \u201cThree producers, an ex-husband, and him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But she quickly clarified that she loves him, especially because she\u2019s had a rough past couple of years\u2014since both her parents passed away\u2014and \u201cliterally the only bright spot in the whole time came from him.\u201d How did he create such joy and distraction? Allegedly, by laying not one\u2026but two eggs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell he laid two eggs in a week is what the bright spot was,\u201d she said, after Kimmel commented that that\u2019s \u201csuch a nice thing to hear.\u201d I imagine Kimmel, like me, and probably the entire audience, was envisioning this boyfriend doing something like regularly sending flowers or offering to bring some non-cafeteria food to the hospital. Not, you know, possessing an ovipositor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCould we rewind for just a moment?\u201d Kimmel said.<\/p>\n<div id=\"revcontent-hidden\">\n<p>\u201cIt had a shell and a yolk,\u201d Beckinsale responded.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe went to the bathroom and was very surprised to find that he had laid an egg,\u201d she continued, offering zero context or explanation. \u201cI got very involved in this because I really did need a distraction because everything was so horrible.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kate Beckinsale\u2019s Daughter\u2019s Boyfriend LAID TWO EGGS!\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1etA-kA7nbw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>She described it as more like a hard-boiled egg, which had \u201ckind of cooked inside him.\u201d She also said she initially thought he was embellishing because\u2026it sounds like he\u2019s embellishing, and that she asked if he was putting eggs up his butt for attention. That is, until later in the week, when her daughter texted that he\u2019d done it again, and this time she sent photos.<\/p>\n<p>She showed Kimmel the photos but, much to the audience\u2019s (and mine!!!!) disappointment, said they were too \u201cmedical\u201d for live TV. Guillermo got to see them, too. They both looked shocked and a little disturbed, with Kimmel exclaiming that her daughter\u2019s boyfriend must be the Easter Bunny. (Even though the Easter Bunny delivers eggs and doesn\u2019t\u00a0lay them.)<\/p>\n<p>Beckinsale said she texted the photo to all the doctors she knows, who texted all the doctors they know, and ultimately, no one knows what the hell it is\u2014though some suggested it was some type of \u201ccomplicated masturbation thing,\u201d which she ensured the Kimmel audience it was not.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s my favorite thing he\u2019s ever done,\u201d she concluded.<\/p>\n<p>I had high hopes that the YouTube comments would be filled with explanations, but, alas, everyone is too concerned with how skinny and \u201cdifferent\u201d Beckinsale looks. I understand that Hollywood is shrinking, and that\u2019s an important conversation to sometimes have, but not everyone in Hollywood is laying eggs, as far as I know. Still, here we are, obsessing over a woman\u2019s appearance instead of obsessing over a guy laying eggs!<\/p>\n<p>If\u00a0you are a health care professional and have an explanation for this phenomenon, I am begging you to leave it in the comments. My entire life trajectory now depends on this.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>Like what you just read?
