Anthony Kiedis

Ione was just 16 when she briefly dated Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea, before moving on to the band’s frontman, Anthony Keidis, who was 24 and struggled with heroin addiction.

“I liked the idea of this dangerous, dark prince of a rock ‘n’ roller,” Ione writes, revealing she got pregnant but had an abortion.

Matthew Perry

Ione worked with the future Friends star Matthew Perry on 1988’s A Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon. Two decades later, he called her.

“I normally didn’t accept booty calls…but it was Matthew Perry! I was curious, and he was adorable and handsome and rich and presumably sober,” she dishes, but the sex was “emotionally distant.”

John Cusack

Believe it or not, Ione and John Cusack didn’t hook up while playing young lovers in Say Anything, but they did get intimate about a decade later!

“I needed to get him out of my system,” the former Gen X It Girl writes in Say Everything, “and it worked – now I knew we were meant to be in love only in the movies.”

Keanu Reeves

She made her first movie, 1986’s River’s Edge, at 15 and admits to “stalking” her 21-year-old costar Keanu Reeves. Refusing to take his no for an answer, she even jumped into the shower with him.

“The room was thick with steam, my wet T-shirt sticking to me, wanting to be peeled off,” she writes. But Keanu stopped her, telling her she was too young. “Even the way he’d rejected me was charming.”

River Phoenix

“River [Phoenix] was still dating Martha Plimpton, so we never kissed off camera, as much as I’d have liked to,” she writes of her costar from Jimmy Reardon.

Despite her initial crush, the actor, who died at 23 in 1993, ended up being “like a brother.”

Jenny Shimizu

While wed to Beastie Boys member Adam Horovitz, Ione had an affair with Jenny Shimizu, who has dated Madonna and Angelina Jolie.

The model was a “masterful lover, sometimes a dominant one,” Ione writes, adding that their safe word was London. “She didn’t use whips or handcuff me to the bed, she just held this vibe.”
