Reese Witherspoon talks about working with choreographer Sebastien Stella for the movie Water for Elephants
Artisan News Service, April 6th:
As posted about last night, Reese attended the Barcelona premiere of Water For Elephants. I’ve now added lots more photos, most of which are in HQ! I’m also posting a bunch of videos from the event, which you can view further down this post.
Pics from today’s press conference coming up in a little while, or tomorrow, depending on time.

REESE Witherspoon admits it was “a little scary” having to cut her hair for new movie Water For Elephants.
The Oscar winning actress had the option of wearing a wig to play her platinum blonde character but instead spoiled her own luscious locks.
“I debated about whether or not I was going to wear a wig,” says Reese.
“Ultimately, after lots of discussion and screen-testing, I decided, ‘I’m just going to cut my hair. I’m just going to dye it white. I’m just going to do it.’ It was really transforming for me if a little scary. In the end I didn’t even recognize myself.”
Reese recently admitted her Hollywood stardom hasn’t come without a price.
“Sometimes I will sit in the car and cry,” she said.
“Because I can’t get out. That’s the only thing: I mourn the loss of my privacy.
“With whatever I’ve lost, I’ve gained tenfold in life experience.”
REESE Witherspoon has poured scorn on rumors an elephant farted in her face while making new movie Water For Elephants.
The Oscar winning actress says she was stunned to read that she had supposedly endured smelly situation for almost a minute while filming the romantic drama.
“It’s not true at all,” says Reese. “I love that that story came about but I don’t know where that came from.”
Meanwhile, Reese has revealed she wore cowboy boots on her wedding day.
The Legally Blondeactress — who married Hollywood agent Jim Toth at her ranch in Ojai, California, in March — admitted while she wore a pair of skyscraper Jimmy Choo heels during the ceremony, she was quick to kick them off in favor of something more comfortable at the reception.
“I danced for four hours until I had to put cowboy boots on,” she said. “I changed into cowboy boots. From those awful uncomfortable shoes.”
The 35-year-old star — who has two children, Ava, 11, and Deacon, eight, from her marriage to actor Ryan Phillippe — also revealed she was nervous about throwing her wedding bash, as she doesn’t like being the center of attention at events.
“I don’t like having birthday parties. I like going to parties,” she said. “I just don’t like it when it’s about me. Which is so bizarre but then once I’m there, I’m having the best time.”
Whilst working on collecting photos from the Barcelona Water For Elephants events today, I’ve uploaded screencaps from Reese’s recent appearance on Reigis & Kelly. These fantastic screencaps are thanks to Jess. I sound like a broken record saying this, but Reese looks gorgeous! I love her hair, and the colour of dress really suits her.
