Reese Witherspoon
I'm lucky to find a person to share my life, and the best friend I'll ever have.
Reese Witherspoon
I had someone correct my grammar once on a blind date, and within the first 10 minutes the date was over. You just don't correct somebody's grammar. That's just not okay. I'm from Tennessee, so I probably say everything wrong. I might have said ain't, or something like that.

Reese Witherspoon
No one can sing like June Carter so I just tried to sing my very best.
Reese Witherspoon
