Jennifer Coolidge Got Laid Thanks to American Pie
Jennifer Coolidge, has always been known for her hilarious characters and is now seeing a career resurgence thanks to her leading lady role in HBO’s White Lotus, and thus is of course making the interview rounds. In a recent one with Ariana Grande, Jennifer chatted about how playing “Stifler’s Mom” in American Pie in 1999 helped her get laid, a lot, and by some very “handsome” and “younger” men. Via People:
“It helped my dating life in a way that I can’t ever explain,” Coolidge said of the movie, after Grande asked about Coolidge’s personal favorite roles over her career. “If I hadn’t had that movie, I don’t think… Well, let’s just say it would’ve been a very dull decade.”
Coolidge went on to admit that her American Pie role “did sort of open up the world to a much broader group of handsome men — and younger men.”
Considering just about every guy who came of age in the early 2000s probably jerked it to Stifler’s mom at one point, I’m sure they allll would have been happy to line up for a chance with her.
