Reese Witherspoon Still Has all 77 Pairs of Shoes From 'Legally Blonde 2'


Everyone’s constantly reliving the legendary film Legally Blonde: Ariana Grande honored the movie in “Thank U Next” and Kim Kardashian paid homage to Elle Woods with an epic Halloween costume. But Reese Witherspoon is still the best Elle Woods there is—especially because Witherspoon recently revealed she even has the iconic wardrobe to back up her performance. She shared that after Legally Blonde 2 wrapped, she got to keep the clothes from the set, including all 77 (!) pairs of shoes that Woods wears in the movie.

Appearing on The Graham Norton show this week, Witherspoon admitted that she currently has all of the footwear from Legally Blonde 2 casually laying around in her closet. “How many pairs of Jimmy Choos?” host Graham Norton asked her. The actress, who was sitting next to a shocked Jennifer Anniston, responded it was, “like 77.” She added, “I had it written in my contract…I have all of them.”

Even though she has all of them, she hasn’t been putting too many Elle Woods outfits together lately. She explained, “I’ve never touched them [in real life] and then on the 15th anniversary I took them all out of storage and tried them all on. Some of them fit, some of them didn’t, and then I showed them all to my daughter and it was really cool.”

Witherspoon has confirmed that Legally Blonde 3 is on its way, which means we’re going to have another chance to see some more brilliantly pink Elle costumes. Maybe a few pairs of the shoes Witherspoon has will make an appearance in the latest installment; we have a few favorites we wouldn’t mind seeing again, including the bright red boots, the fuzzy slippers, and the glittering sandals that she paired with her Jackie O-inspired outfit.

Reese Witherspoon Responded to Ariana Grande's 'Legally Blonde' Post in the Most Elle Woods Way


Ariana Grande has always been a massive Legally Blonde fan, so it makes sense that her “Thank U, Next” music video will draw from the iconic rom-com (among others). After the singer posted a bunch of Legally Blonde–inspired teasers on social media, Reese Witherspoon—yes, Elle Woods herself—swooped in to give Grande her (probably well-perfumed) stamp of approval.

Grande had posted a photo of herself standing with a familiar orange iBook—identical to the one Elle Woods uses in a Harvard Law lecture—and captioned it, “Whoever said orange was the new pink was seriously disturbed.” Witherspoon retweeted the photo on Wednesday and added her own epic Elle Woods one-liner: “Also… 2 weeks ago I saw Cameron Diaz at Fred Segal and I talked her out of buying a truly heinous angora sweater!”

See for yourself:

This all comes just after Grande had shared an image of Elle Woods’ adorable pet sidekick Bruiser Woods hanging out on a bright pink pool float and uploaded another photo that suggests Jennifer Coolidge might make a cameo in the video. Now she’s got Witherspoon in her corner too. Allow us to bend and snap with delight!

Grande has been giving fans clues about what the “Thank U, Next” video will entail, and detective work lead most people to conclude that the visuals for the break-up anthem will involve Mean Girls and 13 Going on 30 in addition to Legally Blonde. Grande had been captioning her photos with Mean Girls quotes all week, and her followers caught on quickly when she posted an image of herself with short, Jenna Rink–esque hair.

Grande confirmed the guesses in a recent Instagram story, writing, “Ok, you guessed the third! but there’s still one more so no tea. Tomorrow.” We’ll have to wait and see what the final movie is.

Meanwhile, it’s hardly a surprise that Witherspoon is embracing Grande’s ode to Legally Blonde. She’s always treated stans with love: Earlier this year, she excitedly accepted a woman’s 15,000-word dissertation based on the movie. We’re pretty sure she’s going to be just as supportive when Grande takes on the challenge of giving us her own version of Elle Woods. What, like it’s hard?

Reese Witherspoon Reacted to This Connection Between Donald Trump and 'Legally Blonde'

Back in May, President Donald Trump made a commencement speech at Liberty University’s graduation ceremony. Besides having a few somewhat awkward moments, it got a fair amount of media attention thanks to a brilliant connection made by one of Jimmy Fallon’s writers between the President’s speech and one of the most iconic speeches of all time—Elle Woods’ Harvard Law graduation speech from Legally Blonde. On Friday Reese Witherspoon finally got the chance to address the situation and she had a pretty perfect reaction.

Witherspoon appeared on The Graham Norton Show alongside Harrison Ford, Ryan Gosling, and Margot Robbie, and when Norton brought the speech up, saying it bared a strong resemblance to Witherspoon’s character, Elle’s, speech from the 2001 movie, the Big Little Lies actress smiled and laughed saying, “It did.”

Morton played a clip of the two speeches edited together, taking the bits that sound eerily similar. Citing phrases like, “We take our next steps into the world” and “It is with passion, courage of conviction, and strong sense of self…” as well as Elle’s, “We did it!” compared to Trump’s, “I did it.”

When Norton’s guests finished watching the video, they were all in shock except for Witherspoon, who just laughed. “It’s true, he is better when he sticks to the script,” Harrison Ford said.

When Norton asked if Witherspoon knew how Trump’s speech ended up sounding like her’s and she just shrugged saying, “I’m sure he’s just a big fan.”

Check out the clip below:

It looks like Trump might’ve been taking notes the last time he caught an all-day Legally Blonde marathon on TV. We don’t blame him, it’s a pretty inspiring speech.

Maybe this is a sign that the star should think about running for office? She did tell us she might do it one day, or at least run the campaigns for a few of her friends. She’d be great up there at the podium.
