There’s A Reason Kristen Bell’s New Show ‘Nobody Wants This’ Is Breaking The Internet

Kristen Bell’s character in 'Nobody Wants This' is your favourite chaotic friend, but with way more sass and zero shame.

There’s a reason Kristen Bell’s new Netflix show 'Nobody Wants This' is literally breaking the internet—and it’s not just because of its hilarious plot twists. It’s Kristen Bell herself.

With her bubbly, down-to-earth vibe and sharp wit, she has a way of making every role feel like she’s your best friend on screen. Bell’s always been that perfect mix of warm and relatable, but don’t let her charm fool you—she’s got serious brains behind that smile.

In Nobody Wants This, she brings her A-game, making awkward moments feel oddly comforting and proving once again why everyone’s obsessed with her. Sure, the world’s got a huge soft spot for the OG Seth Cohen (shoutout to Adam Brody from The OC), but Kristen’s magnetic charm totally steals the show here.

Do you know why? She's a Cancer Metal Monkey. I'm sure you're thinking, what does that actually mean?

Well, she's the ultimate combo of emotional depth and clever charm. As a Cancer, Kristen’s got that natural warmth and empathy that makes her feel instantly relatable, but the Metal Monkey (her Chinese zodiac sign) side adds that sharp wit and quick thinking that keeps everyone on their toes. It’s why she can be both hilarious and heartfelt, switching effortlessly between lighthearted fun and deeper, more thoughtful moments. This mix is exactly why she’s able to connect with her audience on such a real level—she's a perfect blend of emotional intelligence and playful energy.

Cancerians are business-savvy, and the Metal Monkey is a talented, out-of-the-box thinker, making Bell professionally unstoppable. She blends sociability, strength, emotion, intellect, and care, making her a natural nurturer—at home and on set. The Metal element in her Chinese chart adds organization, and the Monkey brings playfulness and wit.

As stunning as Bell is onscreen, we can't ignore the alluring charm of Brody as the "hot rabbi".

Brody is a Sagittarius Earth Goat, and that combo explains a lot. Sagittarius brings out his adventurous, free-spirited side, making him that effortlessly cool, laid-back guy we all fell for back in The OC days. But the Earth Goat? That’s where the chill yet grounded and ambitious energy comes from. Goats are known for being thoughtful and patient, adding a layer of calm and reliability to his vibe.

It’s why he can pull off being both the funny, carefree guy and the one who’s steady when it counts. That mix of playful Sag energy and Earth Goat wisdom and drive is what makes Brody so effortlessly likeable and totally swoon-worthy.
