Reese Celebrates the First of Her Christmases

Molly — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 06:00:00 -0800

Reese Witherspoon was smiley and gorgeous even without her costar Vince Vaughn at the premiere of Four Christmases in LA last night. Reese wasn't the only breathtaking blonde - Kristin Chenoweth posed like a pro despite the news that Pushing Daisies has not been picked up further. While Vince wasn't on the red carpet his friend Jon Favreau filled in the place, though we miss his big friendly smile out to promote his endearing holiday spirit with Reese.

Reese Is a Working Mom With Lunch to Go

Molly — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 09:30:20 -0800

Reese Witherspoon showed up smiling on the set of Four Christmases Friday in LA. See, no trouble here between costars! None at all! She's busy these days with her family, movie making, and Avon ambassador duties - no wonder she grabbed her lunch to go. At least Reese realizes that she has it easier than a lot of the working moms out there, although she still wishes she could spend more times with adorable Ava and Deacon. On set her hair was in a casual bun, which is just about the most exciting updo we're going to get to see from Reese this weekend with the lack of Golden Globes. At least it's something?

Reese Witherspoon Is Ready For the Storm

Molly — Fri, 04 Jan 2008 00:23:18 -0800

Reese Witherspoon took a break from cutesy time with Jake to get back to work on Four Christmases in LA yesterday. Living up to the reputation of how filming is going, Reese didn't look too happy to be there. But she did look ready for a big rainstorm (like the one hitting SF, blech). While I'd like to think that Reese and Vince would be buddies on set since they're both great, it kinda makes sense to think their personalities would clash. Plus, there's something not right about the idea of a raunchy "American Pie-style" sex scene between the two of them.

Vince and Reese Are Still in Our Home for the Holidays

PopSugar — Tue, 11 Dec 2007 08:59:25 -0800

Reese and Vince were showing a completely different kind of festive spirit while filming a scene for their new movie Four Christmases in San Francisco yesterday. Last week we saw them getting Christmas-style romantic, but this time around they looked ready for a tropical vacation. Apparently their plans to get out of the city are thwarted in the film, which is how they end up struggling to attend four different celebrations. Sure, it doesn't exactly sound like a ground-breaking romantic comedy, but with Reese and Vince at the helm we're hoping it'll be a fresh and funny take on standard holiday comedy fare.

Reese and Vince Celebrate Christmases in SF

Molly — Fri, 07 Dec 2007 10:04:34 -0800

Despite a rainy day in San Francisco, Reese Witherspoon and Vince Vaughn had no problem playing smitten while filming their upcoming movie Four Christmases yesterday. While I can't believe they were only a few blocks away, at least someone from Sugar HQ got a good celebrity sighting out of it. Check out his story here - he even made it into the background of a paparazzi shot! Hilarious. Vince's Christmas movie this year was a bit of a dud, but I'm already excited for next year's. Plus, fingers crossed that having Reese up in SF will lure up Jake for even more local sightings of your Favorite New Couple of 2007.

We love hearing about your Celebrity Sightings, so keep them coming. They're easy to do, and we always feature our favorites on PopSugar.

Reese Witherspoon Poses in Paris With Vogue

PopSugar — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 09:00:18 -0700

Reese Witherspoon's beautiful blue eyes pop on the November cover of Vogue, and inside she looks stunning pictured around Paris. We saw Reese posing for this shoot back in July and now we get to see the finished product. In the article, Reese tells the story of finding her Oscar gown, becoming the quintessential Nina Ricci woman, and even a little bit about her family and Jake. Here are highlights:

On Jake: "He's very supportive. Suffice it to say, I'm very happy in life, and I'm very lucky to have a lot of really supportive people around me who care very much for me, and, you know, that's all you can hope for in life. I am very blessed in that way."
On traveling with her children: "I'm very lucky I get to bring my children to great places and they get to see the world with me, and we get to grow and learn and experience things together."
On life: "Every once in a while you're hit with moments when you think, really? This is my life. How lucky am I?"

To see more photos from the shoot and read what she has to say about why she was drawn to Four Christmases and empowering women, just read more.

On making Four Christmases: "There are so many dynamics that people deal with all the time, and you don't really see it in movies very much. You don't see the blended-family Christmas very much. And it really is a complication in a lot of people's lives now. How do you see your mother and your father and not hurt anyone's feelings? You know, I didn't grow up like that. I mean, my parents are still married, and my grandparents stayed married, but it's a situation my own children will have to deal with, so it was of interest to me."
On playing a superhero in Monsters vs. Aliens: "I have a history, a long history of being stereotyped as a five-foot-two woman, which is very limiting. I've worked so hard to create characters that have dignity, and I think everybody knows that I have a very pro-woman message in my work - and in my life."

After all these years in movies, being one of the most powerful women in Hollywood, Reese still seems so humble and kind. It's no wonder why Jake seems so smitten. Check out more from Reese when the issue hits newsstands.
