"I don't think any fights are that pleasant," Knightley told Elle. "Anyone who has ever gone out with me would tell you that I have this awful tendency to cry when I get really angry.

"I come from a lineage of broken male-female relationships, abuse of power, and mistrust," Beyoncé told Vogue.

"When you love someone deeply, you learn what demons live within them and you realize that they are hurting you because they are hurting somewhere within themselves," Grande wrote in her Instagram story.

“I'm the type of person who needs communication, right,” Jordin Sparks said in a radio interview. “I'm like, 'We need to talk about this so we can move past it.'

Communication is key for everything.

Celebs — they’re just like us!
