Martin Short and Steve Martin met in 1985 and have maintained a close friendship and collaboration ever since

“One thing about movies is you spend months together and then never see each other again. Steve and I made a conscious decision not to let that happen,” Short shared at a recent event

Martin Short met his longtime collaborator and friend Steve Martin in 1985, and recently revealed his hilarious first thought after meeting the comedian.

Short reflected on his decades-long friendship with Martin, 80, during a panel alongside fellow comedians David Letterman and Paul Shaffer at the Netflix Is a Joke Presents: This Better Be Funny with David Letterman event in Los Angeles on Thursday, May 7.

The 76-year-old explained that he actually met Martin in the '80s after appearing on Letterman's show.

“Then I flew to Los Angeles to pick up the script for Three Amigos from his house," Short said. "I walked in and saw all this incredible art and said, 'How did you get this rich? Because I've seen your act.' "

He then told Letterman and the audience, “We've been close ever since.”

The pair went on to star in the 1986 film Three Amigos!, and after hitting it off on set, they became fast friends.

“One thing about movies is you spend months together and then never see each other again. Steve and I made a conscious decision not to let that happen," Short said.

Short told Letterman they have "probably done 35 shows a year together for over a decade."

"The titles keep changing. The Dukes of Funnytown. Two Wild and Crazy Guys. Things like that," he joked.

In addition to touring together, the Father of the Bride actors have worked together on Only Murders in the Building — co-created byMartin and John Hoffman, with Short as an executive producer — since 2021.

When talking to PEOPLE in 2022, Martin noted that, "There's just an ease between us. Sometimes, I'll hang out with Marty and I'll realize I haven't laughed that hard in two months. And that just feels great."

Meanwhile, Short previously told PEOPLE in 2019 that "Steve's best quality is who he is as a man."

"He's very moral, he's very loyal, very, very ethical. And this is beyond all that talent," he shared.

Martin echoed those same sentiments, calling his longtime friend "the perfect person."

"He's smart, he's funny," the Cheaper by the Dozen star continued. "He has many friends. He's the most popular guy at your dinner party. If he's coming to a dinner party, it's a better dinner party. If Marty can't come, you cancel the party."

Short's upcoming Netflix documentary film, Marty, Life Is Short, hits the platform on May 12.

- Tish Cyrus is looking back on the shock of her split from her ex-husband Billy Ray Cyrus.

- The mother of Miley Cyrus said she was "devastated" after filing for divorce from the country singer in 2022.

- The former couple were married for 29 years.

Tish Cyrus is looking back on her shocking split from her ex husband Billy Ray Cyrus.

She was married to the "Achy Breaky Heart" singer for 29 years and they raised five children — including Disney breakout and Grammy-winning pop star Miley Cyrus — which is why, she said recently, it was so hard for her to accept that their relationship had come to an end.

"I didn't ever really think I would get a divorce. That was not in the cards at all for me," Tish, 58, told Chelsea Handler on the latest episode of the comedian's *Dear Chelsea* podcast. "I was devastated. I'd been married for so long… I didn't know anything different."

Tish, who filed for divorce from Billy Ray, 64, in 2022, said she was in "shock mode" after their breakup. By that point, the couple had already endured their fair share of ups and downs. The country singer previously filed for divorce in 2010 but eventually withdrew his petition. Three years later, Tish filed for divorce, but the couple worked things out again.

As for how she felt when they finally cemented their split, Tish told Handler, "I don't know where I was at," before adding with a laugh, "Honestly, I was stoned."

Later on the podcast, a divorced listener asked for guidance on how to get their "heart out of the way" when it comes to an ex. Tish was quick to jump in, revealing that it was one of the biggest challenges for her when she was finalizing her separation from Billy Ray.

"It was really having to really make my brain focus on how things had gotten, how things were, instead of how they should be or could be," Tish said. "I don't know how you take the emotion out of it, or how you change how you feel. I think you can look at things in that way of, like, how it could have been … the fantasy, when what is your reality? That was the hardest part for me."

She added, "It's so hard to believe when you're in it that things can get better, that there is someone else for you out there. I think when you get grounded in reality of what it is, then you actually can move forward and bring great things into your life."

Tish — who shares Brandi, 38; Trace, 37; Miley, 33; Braison, 31; and Noah, 26 with Billy Ray — is now married to actor Dominic Purcell.

During her appearance on *Dear Chelsea*, Tish recalled that it was after her split from Billy Ray that a friend encouraged her to chase her "dream guy," prompting her to message Purcell on social media. They had their first date the very next day, and after a year and a half together, they tied the knot in August 2023.

Discussing what makes their relationship work so well, Tish noted how much her husband comforts her. "If I am feeling any way, I will just go to Dom and say, 'I'm feeling sad, I need a cuddle,'" she said. "I've never gotten anything from him but love when there's anything in my world that's wrong or I'm feeling a certain way."

She continued, "I used to be so scared to voice those things. I felt like I just needed to be so strong because I really kinda did run everything — like our entire family. Everything really did fall on me to handle. And I feel like this is the first time I've actually felt like I have a partner. That's taken a lot to get used to."

Billy Ray ended up moving on as well. He and fellow country singer Firerose took their relationship public in 2022, months after his split from Tish, and tied the knot in October 2023. However, they ultimately went their separate ways just a few months later, settling their contentious divorce in August 2024.

Ozzy vented about his father on Survivor again, but this time he has a more mature perspective. Rick cries and jokes "I am a bad guy to bounce this off of because I am more of a mush than you are."

The two men bonded over fatherhood.

"That is one of the gifts of this show, the learning process," Ozzy said.

Two tribals and Jonathan voted in both.

Tiff, Emily, Cirie and Devens were one group.

Joe, Ozzy, Rizo, Aubry were the other.

Jonathan won immunity and the advantage to cast two votes- one in each council.

Sir Rizard of Oz

"With Ozzy putting his foot in his mouth" was Cirie's plan the best for Rizo? Apparently not.

"You said too much bro, I am sorry," Rizo said.

- Valerie Bertinelli says she was mistaken for a sex worker while touring with then-husband Eddie Van Halen in the '80s.

- The *One Day at a Time* star said she tried to show the hotel staff her wedding ring, but they didn't budge.

- In the end, she had to call Van Halen and ask him to come downstairs and get her and Alex Van Halen's then-wife, Valeri Kendall.

Valerie Bertinelli is remembering a time out on the road with her late ex-husband Eddie Van Halen that did not, in fact, rock.

The *One Day at a Time** *actress recalled getting stopped by hotel staff who mistook her and Alex Van Halen’s then-wife Valeri Kendall for sex workers when Van Halen was on tour in South America in the early ‘80s.

“I don't remember a lot about the '80s, but I do remember this story,” Valerie said on a recent episode of the *Where Everybody Knows Your Name* podcast. “Ed and Al, his brother, had gone downstairs and Al's wife at the time had said, ‘Let's go down and join them.’”

The pair then made their way to the downstairs bar, where they hung out with their rocker husbands for a bit. When Alex and Eddie decided to head back to their respective rooms, Valerie said that she and Valeri chose to hang back at the bar and promised to meet up with them again later.

However, their plan was much easier said than done.

“Valeri… and I go to the elevator to go up to the room, and they're like, ‘No, no, no,’” Valerie said, waiving her finger. When the pair asked why they couldn’t go to their rooms, she said that hotel staff “were trying to tell us that prostitutes aren't allowed on the upper floors.”

The *Hot in Cleveland *star, who had married Eddie in 1981, was quick to try and set the record straight. “I was like, ‘No, no, I have a wedding ring!’” she recalled.

And still no dice. “They would not let me up,” she said. “I had to leave the elevator, get on the [phone] — 'cause there were no cell phones in the early ‘80s — and call Ed in the room and say, ‘Can you come down and get me? Because they won't let me up. They think Valeri and I are prostitutes.’”

***Get your daily dose of entertainment news, celebrity updates, and what to watch with our EW Dispatch newsletter.***

Ted Danson, who hosts the *Cheers*-themed podcast, joked that the hotel staff probably *still* believed that she and Valeri were sex workers even after Eddie rescued them from the lobby.

“They probably still did, just thought that Ed decided to come back and get this lovely prostitute [and] come back up to the room,” he teased.

To which a laughing Valerie replied, “Yes, so, I’ve been mistaken for a prostitute before.”

Valerie and Eddie were married for over two decades from 1981 until 2007. The couple welcomed their son, Wolfgang Van Halen, in 1991.

*The Drew Barrymore Show *lifestyle expert previously admitted that she wished she’d “been a better friend” to her rockstar ex in the year before his death at age 65 in 2020.

"I’m incredibly grateful for where we ended up the last year of his life, but I’m kicking myself that I wish I had learned what I know now earlier, so I could have been a better friend to him," she said on the *Work in Progress With Sophia Bush* podcast in March. "If I couldn't have been a good partner — because that was over — I could have been a better friend."

- KJ Apa has issued a blistering criticism of his look-alike, the outlandish TikTok star Mr. Fantasy.

- In a dead-serious Instagram video, Apa claimed Mr. Fantasy has "completely and utterly stolen my image," calling the "Do Me Right" singer "a f---ing liar and a thief."

- Signs like matching tattoos and mutual collaborations with *Riverdale *stars like Lili Reinhardt and Camila Mendes, however, point to Apa, in fact, being Mr. Fantasy.

Will the real Mr. Fantasy please stand up?

*Riverdale** *star KJ Apa took to Instagram on Monday to share a furious video calling out the viral TikTok star for having "utterly stolen my image and misappropriated my image and my likeness."

Sure, Apa himself being behind Mr. Fantasy — indeed *being *Mr. Fantasy — has been clear since the idiosyncratic entertainer's rise to fame in 2025. But fans of the meta-saga will know by now that Apa is utterly committed to the bit and always eager to muddy the waters separating himself from his (likely) alter ego.

"There has been something going on for a long time that I haven't addressed because I didn't even think it was worth addressing," Apa began Monday's dramatic video. "But now, because of how it has impacted my life personally, I feel like I have to talk about it... because it's hurting me and my career."

Mr. Fantasy has been releasing bizarre, high-intensity videos, visuals, and songs on his YouTube and TikTok accounts for nearly a year now, with Apa denying any association all the while. But nothing has come closer to outing Apa as the oddball, Austin Powers-esque crooner than the video for his latest single, "Do Me Right," which debuted on April 30.

"There was recently a music video that was released that included a bunch of people who are really close to me by a guy who’s completely and utterly stolen my image, and misappropriated my image and my likeness, and I think we all know who we're talking about, and it's f---ed up," Apa explained. "It's f---ed up because I just lost on a huge job and can no longer go in for serious work because people think that I’m a joke because of this guy."

Apa threw up his hands: "I don't know what to do about it other than bring it here and do everything I can to protect myself, because it's completely f---ing disrespectful and completely wrong to do that." The actor insisted that he "can't just sit back and watch it happen and see my life, literally everything that I have worked hard for come to halt because of this f---ing idiot," who he proceeded to call "a f---ing liar and a thief."

The video in question, directed, shot, and edited by the mysterious figure "John," whom Mr. Fantasy introduced to the, let's call it, Fantasy-verse last August, stars some of Apa's closest friends and collaborators.

*Riverdale *stars and @blondebrunetteredhead trio Lili Reinhardt, Camila Mendes, and Madelaine Petsch all appear in "Do Me Right," which features Mr. Fantasy in full, flagrant off-putting mode singing about "sex on the beach" and wanting to "eat a peach" over a disco beat.

Why, Apa fans naturally asked themselves, would Reinhardt, Mendes, and Petsch all appear in the music video for a man whose face and voice strongly resemble Apa's, and whose tattoos identically match Apa's, but himself isn't Apa? Especially if the real Apa was sincerely vexed by the impersonator's impersonations.

The video for "Do Me Right" also features stars like Dave Franco, Nick Jonas, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Zoey Deutch, Kiernan Shipka, and Rob Lowe.

Many of those featured in cameo roles left tongue-in-cheek comments on Apa's incensed post on Monday, with Derek Hough writing, "I hope you guys can find a middle ground," and Deutch noting, "I had no idea it was affecting your life like this."
