Reese Witherspoon says her friendship with a fellow actress ended after she misread the tone of an event while delivering a personalized speech.
Reese Witherspoon at Amazon MGM Studios Premiere of"Blink Twice" at DGA Theater Complex on August 08, 2024 in Los Angeles, California.was put to the ultimate Hollywood friendship test when a fellow actress asked her to present an award to her at a prestigious ceremony. Not knowing the nature of the show, she prepared for the occasion by writing up a speech full of jokes about drinking wine, skinny-dipping, and laser hair removal. Witherspoon thought she would pass with flying colors.
The actress admits she still has some lingering embarrassment from misreading the event’s tone. But it’s in the past, or, at least, it was. Speculation around who Witherspoon might have been referencing caused fans to dig for answers using the sparse details provided in the interview. All they knew was that the speech bombed and was delivered at an event she described as “British,” “elegant” and “classy.
They traced it back to the Britannia Awards, which are presented by the Los Angeles extension of the British Academy of Film and Television Arts. Witherspoon presented British actresswith the Artist of the Year award at the show’s November 2007 ceremony.
Still, it wasn’t an incredibly deep loss, just an embarrasing one. “I didn’t really know that well but she was a very serious, proper actress; she asked me to give her an award. But I had never been to this award ceremony, so I thought it was like a roast.
