Roasted an actress and lost her friendship, according to Reese Witherspoon! Internet investigators believe they’ve solved it
Witherspoon told PEOPLE, «I’m still embarrassed about it,» in reference to the speech she previously gave.
Internet detectives worked to identify the woman after Reese Witherspoon told PEOPLE about a humiliating speech she gave to honor an anonymous actress that ended their friendship.
According to social media users and Just Jared, the general assumption is that Witherspoon was alluding to Kate Winslet.
These hints prompted many to believe that Witherspoon wasn’t referring to Winslet, even if a source tells PEOPLE otherwise. Witherspoon told how another actress once asked her for a favor while promoting her new film, You’re Cordially Invited.I didn’t know this friend of mine very well, but she was a really serious, respectable actress, and she asked me to.
«So I was asked to present an award to a friend of mine who I didn’t really know well but who was a very serious, proper actor. However, this award ceremony felt like a roast to me because I had never been. Witherspoon said, «I got up and roasted her.»
«The tone was British,» the Legally Blonde star later said, acknowledging that wasn’t the event’s ambiance. Classy. «Classy,» she added.
