  • After winning more awards in the last 12 months for her performance as Tanya McQuoid in The White Lotus than she garnered nominations for any other role in her entire 30-year career, and giving the kind of frank and unconventional acceptance speeches that go viral, Jennifer Coolidge, 61, is offering hope to late bloomers everywhere.

    Her final comment hit me hard. She can go from being hilariously goofy to painfully profound at the drop of a hat. That is talent.

    What I love Jennifer Coolidge is that she really is consistent as a person. Her acting and comedic timing is definitely worth looking into. Even though I clearly remember her from American pie she was recognizable in almost every role she was in.
    I also think aside from a great role in an amazing show is that we no longer have the culture of looking down on unique entertainment personalities. We can't put her in a box. No one is quite like her. She's endured in her career amongst her peers. This generation of fans aren't really into the cookie cutter actors. She definitely deserves the accolades.

    I actually cried at the end 🥹 Jennifer means so much to millennials like me, she’s right, we remembered her and loved her all this time. Super talented, wickedly charismatic and gracious ❤ all the recognition and success is 100% deserved. I’m so happy she’s being celebrated even more now! 🎉

    Yupp. Legally Blonde and A Cinderella Story made me a fan as a wee little gay boy. Her performances are what I remember most about those movies. Her comedic genius is in her delivery; the timing, the cadence of her speech, the nuanced facial expressions. She is our Lucille Ball. She is our Carol Burnett. It’s about time she receives the recognition she deserves. Thank you Jennifer, for working hard at your craft. You have no idea how much you impact the lives of the people who watch you. You’ve made me laugh in my darkest times. I’ve bonded with people over our shared love for you. You always put a smile on my face, no matter what. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for you. ❤

    She is a FANTASTIC actress. I already knew she dominates comedy, but in White Lotus she proved she can do drama aswell.
    Her character was just so well portrayed. She deserves all the recognition she is getting and MORE!!

    I truly hope this isn't a "ride" that won't last very long for Coolidge. I hope this "ride" will continue to go up higher and higher for her. She's getting her well deserved flowers, and I hope it'll continue.
    I also hope more directors will give her the opportunity to show her range as an actress. More dramatic roles. I've seen her in a couple of movies where she plays a serious character, and she killed it. She's awesome and a great actress. I hope she'll continue to get great material.

    I happened upon Jennifer about 18 years ago at the MAC Pro store on Robertson Blvd. She was very unlike her on screen persona as Stifler’s mom - very down to earth and normal. I was in awe of her! She buying a makeover for a friend who was getting the star treatment from the MAC employees. ❤️

    a true icon. first time i saw her in a movie was in a cinderella story, then legally blonde etc.. and of course in 2 broke girls and she always had me laughing my ass off and i`m so happy that she`s finally getting the recognition she deserves.

  • @denarendall
    @denarendall ปีที่แล้ว +6

    So glad she’s getting her flowers after white Lotus - truly phenomenal! But let’s not overlook the countless other amazing roles she has played so well😍 American pie, legally blonde, and a Cinderella story were some of my favourite movies growing up!

  • @muthascorpio
    @muthascorpio ปีที่แล้ว +130

    She’s legit the ICON we needed. 🖤🖤🖤🖤 💯 Words cannot describe how truly happy I am for her. She’s now the ⭐️ she was always destined to become and I feel that shes so deserving of this and so much more that’s coming her way 💅 👑 I remember seeing her for the very first time briefly in (Best in Show) that performance has just stuck with me for like at the very least over a decade 😂 and I must say this cover is giving Morticia Addams/ Elvira realness and I am fuc*@ng here for IT 😍🥀🖤🖤🖤 I’d truly love when I’m back down in New Orleans (which isn’t far from where I’m at in Texas) a 5 hour drive at the least to go down to the Lower Garden District and see her beautiful plantation style home. I remember reading where she allowed Sofia Coppola to use it to shoot some of the most beautiful scenes for the movie The Beguiled and that was so fabulous. I had no idea at that time Jennifer owned the property or even lived in NOLA! Although most scenes were shot at an Antebellum style plantation called Madewood which is about an hour outside of New Orleans but anyways I’d love to run into her one day in a totally non stalker-ish way LOL! I can’t believe over all my years and all my trips out there I’ve never seen her out and about. Anyways all hail QUEEN COOLIDGE !!!!!!! 🙌🏻🫶🏻🎀✨💎💓

    • @SY-ok2dq
      @SY-ok2dq ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh come on, you'll be VERY stalkerish! Coolidge will have to hire special security just for you LOL!!!
      😆
      After decades of being a scene stealer and memorable in small and supporting roles to which she added so much, Coolidge has finally landed a big, juicy, starring role in a big, high quality production. We'll be sure to see a lot more of her, with her name at the top of the cast list, instead of sandwiched somewhere down the list. It's very uplifting to see this happen for Coolidge, especially considering how many other deserving actresses don't get those breaks, least of all at that age!
      BTW interesting trivia about Coolidge's house!

    Jennifer Coolidge has always been unique and I mean that in the absolute best way. There are some actresses and actors that seem so similar or can be mistaken for one another, but she is not one of them. I’m so happy that she has finally got this kind of recognition. We love her 💕! She’s gorgeous and funny and quirky. I’m just so thrilled for her!

    I came late to the viewing of "The White Lotus" ... but found Season One (on DVD) at my local library - after hearing so much buzz! I checked it out right around the time I came down with Bronchitis; needless to say I binged watched all the episodes - then, a couple days later re-watched it all over again! Now I need to watch Season Two 🎉

    She's great. Absolute icon, and I think what makes her loved is her authentic personality. In American pie is where I first noted seeing her, and she was the star of the film in many ways. She was so different from skinny, scripted careful Hollywood stars like Nicole Kidman, Renee Zeleweger, etc who were good but didn't knock it out of the park. Jennifer really did, every role was hilarious. In legally blonde and 2 broke girls everything else, she's great. Even though the past 20 yrs she's not been the protagonist, ill watch stuff because she's in it. Recently, Netflix, the watcher had a trailer with her in it. I watched it because of her, even though she's n9t main character. True to form, she didn't disappoint. I like the way her whole personality is brought into the role, her voice, her walk, her physical stature and body size is unconventional for Hollywood, but she makes it work. ❤
