21 Celebs’ 2016 New Year’s Resolutions

Kathy Griffin revealed her resolution to Anderson Cooper as they watched the ball drop in Times Square, “I act like this, but in my real life, I lose battles every day. This year, I’m gonna try to be treated better… When you’re a female stand-up comic who’s 55, it’s a whole other ball game.” 

Actress and writer Mindy Kaling was very honest about her New Year’s resolution with InStyle, “Every day is like a New Year’s resolution for me. I’m a little like my character where I’m like, ‘Ah, I’ve got to pull it together’ constantly. So, New Year’s is just the time when everyone else in the world is doing it too.”

Considering the actress not only stars on TV’s Game of Thrones and plays Captain Phasma in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, we weren’t suprised by her resolution to, “Try and take a break.”

Amy Schumer, our favorite female comedian, shared her sexy New Year’s resolution with HuffPo, saying, “I want to sleep with a black guy this year. I never have before, it’s been pretty much all white guys. It makes me feel racist that I’ve never slept with a black guy, so this year, I’m going to try to do that.”

Kim Kardashian West tweeted this addition to her goals for 2016, “Just thought of another New Years resolution. I really want to make my moms life easier & be extra nice! She’s the best &does everything 4 us”

Always hilarious, Ricky Gervais tweeted, “My New Year’s resolution is to do more underwear modelling.” As if he needs another job, LOL.

Our favorite Project Runway judge tweeted this gem, “Early New Year’s Resolution: Time is our greatest luxury, slow down and enjoy it 🙂 ?@HTC ?#HTCOneA9 ?#slowmotion”

The indie rock band tweeted, “our 2016 resolution is to eat more pizza, obviously. can’t wait to celebrate @NYRE tomorrow on @ABCNetwork.”

Responding to the terrible flooding in the Midwest, Bill Nye tweeted, “Extreme weather events ain’t cheap. New Year’s resolution: renewable energy for all!”

San Andreas actress, Malin Ackerman, told InStyle, “I don’t do resolutions. I have decided that I am, at the end of this year, instead of making resolutions, I am going to be thankful for certain things that I have done and accomplished this past year.”

We were surprised to hear this resolution from Christina Milian, considering she looks so hot, “I just need to work out more. I really do. I don’t work out at all. I need to fit it in.”

We’re impressed by this Kardashian’s resolution, “Just don’t spend any money in 2016. None—only the necessary. Just because I just bought a house and I get stressed, because I’ve never spent that much money. I’m just focused on business at this point.”

According to InStyle, Lea Michelle plans to focus on fitness. “I’ve had a really great year, but one thing that I’m really proud of myself for doing this year was really expanding my fitness life. I was really always into hiking and yoga and I wanted to expand that more in 2015. So I started doing Pilates and spin class. So with this new year, I think as far as healthy living is concerned, it’s important, for me personally, to be less complacent and more challenging, and to keep with what I’ve already been doing which is to always explore different things. I think it’s great for everyone. It keeps us motivated and it keeps us open to trying new things. Like I said, I had the best time doing that this year, and it’s definitely what I want to continue to incorporate into this next year.”

Sometimes, it’s the little things, according to Drew Barrymore, who simply wants,”To get smaller underwear.”

In his weekly radio address, President Barak Obama revealed that his New Year’s resolution is related to gun control and that he plans, “To move forward on our unfinished business as much as I can,” and fight the “epidemic of gun violence.” 

The Republican senator from Kentucky tweeted this dig at Donald Trump, along with an unflattering photo, “I resolve to speak in vague but bombastic generalities more ?#newyearsresolution”

Predictably, Donald Trump told Fox News, “My resolution is to make America great again, and that’s what we’re going to do.” But the Presidential candidate also said, “We’re going to rebuild our military to make it so strong, so powerful, that nobody is going to mess with us. And, importantly, we’re going to take care of our vets, because our vets have been totally mistreated.”

Chrissy Teigen told InStyle that she normally doesn’t make resolutions, but, “I would definitely like to be a closer and a better friend to everybody. I have this core group of people in my life and it is so hard to keep in touch with them, and they are all having children, and I miss birthdays. And I miss the birth of their kids and I miss their kids’ birthdays and that feels bad every year. So I always send an email around this time every year where I want to be better so I am going to stick with that one forever I think.”

We know her as Snooki from The Jersey Shore, and in her New Year’s podcast, she resolved to keep her fitness routine going and to, “Be a great mommy, like I’ve always been and gain 10 pounds of muscle like Jillian Michaels.” 

Nichole Polizzi’s BFF, Joey Camasta, who cohosts her podcasts with her, wants to become more of a foodie in 2016, saying, “I really want to focus on something I’ve been putting off, but I love cooking so I want to start a cooking segment on Twitter and bring everyone into my culinary world.”

The Jane the Virgin star takes her resolutions very seriously, saying, “I do resolutions daily because I’m constantly fighting the demons. I’m constantly fighting the battles of eating healthy, of making sure I’m keeping myself healthy because I have Hashimotos disease, of making sure that I’m good to others, making sure that I continue to grow in my character. I’m getting rid of the bad habits because I have them, like everybody else. I don’t wait ’til one day. I do that everyday because it doesn’t just take one day for them to disappear. It takes so long for them to disappear. So they’re everyday. My resolutions happen morning and nightly. Just like I should probably stop drinking this Moet. Resolution Gina, it’s probably not great for your skin. But, on the contrary, I love it… allowing myself freedom to be good to me, right? So it’s all those things, and that’s real.”
