Martha Stewart Thinks Neighbor Ryan Reynolds Is “Not So Funny in Real Life”
Ryan Reynolds likely won’t be giving Martha Stewart a good laugh anytime soon.
The celebrity chef shared her honest thoughts on the Deadpool & Wolverine star during a recent appearance on Bilt Rewards’ November Rent Free game show. For one of the questions, she was asked which celebrities she thought Bilt members named as “the most fun to hang out with.”
Automatically, Stewart guessed her good friend Snoop Dogg was on the list, and she was correct. However, she was a bit shocked by the next person on the list.
“He’s probably on the list just ‘cause he covers himself up in his movies and you don’t see his face — Ryan Reynolds, is he one of those?” she asked before adding, “And you want to know something? He’s not so funny in real life. No, he’s not so funny. He’s very serious.”
Once the final list was revealed, which included Taylor Swift, Reynolds and Snoop Dogg, Stewart was asked if she would change the order at all. While she would keep Snoop and the “Cruel Summer” singer, who she called “lovely,” the businesswoman admitted to Bilt CEO and founder Ankur Jain that she would “take Ryan off it, and I would put in somebody else.”
As for who she would replace the actor with, Stewart said, “George Clooney, ‘cause he’s fun. George is really nice to hang out with.”
Stewart clarified that Reynolds is “a good actor. He can act funny, but he isn’t funny. Maybe he can get to be funny again.”
“I’m going to get in trouble,” she quipped. “He’s my neighbor.”
It’s been a busy month for Stewart who released her new cookbook, Martha: The Cookbook: 100 Favorite Recipes, with Lessons and Stories from My Kitchen, on Oct. 22. R.J. Cutler’s Netflix documentary Martha also premiered Wednesday.
