Actress Reese Witherspoon was surprisingly mistaken for a real lawyer while serving on a US jury due to her iconic role as Elle Woods in Legally Blonde. She shared this amusing anecdote on The Graham Norton Show, revealing that fellow jurors unanimously chose her as the foreman, believing she had attended law school. Witherspoon, who clarified she had not, playfully commented on people's limited legal knowledge.
Celebrity Reese Witherspoon was once made to step up while serving on a US jury — all because of Legally Blonde . She was mistaken for a real lawyer by her fellow jurors because of her portrayal of Elle Woods, the actor revealed in a recent appearance on The Graham Norton Show. “Listen, I did not want to do jury duty ,” Witherspoon said. “But I remember ... it was probably seven years after Legally Blonde , I got called for jury duty and it was in Beverly Hills.
I definitely did not go to law school, I didn’t finish college.’” “I played a lawyer in a movie once. But they fully made me the foreman. “And I started realising, people don’t know much about the law.” Witherspoon portrayed sorority-turned-law-student Elle Woods in the 2001 film Legally Blonde. She reprised the role in the 2003 sequel Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde, in which Elle heads to Washington DC to fight for animal rights.
