Other people’s dreams are never interesting…except when they’re about sex. Each week, our dream analyst Lauri Loewenberg tells one lucky reader what their dirty dream means. Got a dream you want Lauri to analyze? Click here to submit it) This week, a reader asks Lauri:
This is the third sexual celebrity dream I’ve had this week! What is the deal? They are all different celebrities and different situations, and all hilariously random. OK, so first it was Daniel Tosh from Tosh.O. (haha) It was mostly us sitting around his house, making jokes, but he thought I was really funny and it was mostly flirting.
Then, it was the guy from “John Tucker Must Die,” Jesse Metcalfe. That was a weirder one where we were going to sneak off to have sex at a party, but then I was conflicted because I have a boyfriend, (which I do in real life) so I ended up taking a sexy shower in front of a room full of police officers (weird I know).
Then the third was with Johnny Knoxville. He was telling me how he just got this girl pregnant, which turned out to be a weird batmonster that she birthed (lol), and then he proceeded to give me oral sex… WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN?! I feel like a crazy person.
Lauri: It’s okay! We’re all crazy people when we dream, quite frankly. The reason for that is because once we enter REM sleep (when dreaming takes place) the Prefrontal Cortex, the part of the brain that controls rational thought, goes dormant, so our reasoning and logic is not what it normally is when we are awake. Therefore, showering in front of a bunch of policemen won’t seem the least bit strange in a dream, nor hanging with or even banging celebrities.
The best way to figure out why a celebrity is making a guest appearance in your dream is to ask yourself what it is that celebrity is best known for. Is it a character they have played on TV or in the movies? Can you relate that character or show to your life right now? Is it a song? If so, does the title or the lyrics speak to you right now?
For example, Daniel Tosh of Tosh.o is a comedian, so he may represent your sense of humor. At the time of that dream, do you recall needing to have a good sense of humor about something? Jesse Metcalfe’s character in “John Tucker Must Die” is a serial cheater. You sneak off with him in the dream. In real life, had you cheated or done something sneaky? Or maybe it’s the name of the show that holds relevance. Anything in your life, any issue or behavior that needs to end or “die?”
The shower in front of the policemen is very interesting and suggests there may be something you need to come clean about, or there may be some frustration or negative issue you need to cleanse yourself of. The police are most likely your ability to police your behavior and/or put a stop to what is not right. Again, this seems to tie into the “John Tucker Must Die” aspect of the dream.
And finally, Johnny Knoxville may represent your daring dangerous side… unless Knoxville, TN, means anything to you. Impregnating a girl who then gave birth to a batmonster seems to suggest that your daring side has brought forth some sort of crazy situation into your life. Bats in dreams can often mean you have a bad feeling about something. So all these details in your dream suggest there might be an awfully juicy story behind it! Do tell!

I dreamed I was on Property Brothers and late one night, I went over to the house I bought. Jonathan was still there working on the house so I offered to help him paint. We got to talking, then flirting. When I tried to kiss him, he stopped me and said that he didn’t get involved with clients. I was so disappointed and went home crying. A few days later, it was time for the house reveal. Jonathan and Drew showed me my new house completely finished and I loved it. I gave them hugs goodbye and said goodbye to the camera crew. After everyone left, my house felt so empty and lonely. Then I heard a knock on the door. I opened it and saw Jonathan standing there. I asked him if he forgot something and he said, “My flight doesn’t leave until tomorrow so I thought we could hang out. I brought some DVDs and a bottle of wine.” I was so happy and let him in. We spent the evening watching bad romantic comedies and eating pizza. Later, we opened the wine and started flirting. “You’re not my client anymore”, Jonathan said. “Well then, let’s break-in my new bed,” I said and started to walk towards the stairs. We ended up going upstairs and having the best sex ever.
I’m embarrassed by this dream because I don’t really think Jonathan is that attractive. He seems like a nice guy and he’s not ugly but he’s not someone I would go after. I do watch the show a lot so I can understand why I would dream about it but, still, so weird.
