“He can act funny, but he isn’t funny,” the lifestyle mogul told Bilt CEO and founder Ankur Jain on Bilt Rewards’ November ‘Rent Free’ game show
Ryan Reynolds may be known for his signature sense of humor, but Martha Stewart claims he’s not really funny.
The domestic diva shared her thoughts on the Deadpool & Wolverine star when she served as a special guest for Bilt Rewards’ November Rent Free game show.
Asked what celebrities she thought respondents had named as the most fun to hang out with, she told Bilt CEO and founder Ankur Jain she was sure her good friend Snoop Dogg was on the list.
She then said Reynolds likely made the cut — though she doesn’t think he should have.
“He’s probably on the list just ‘cause he covers himself up in his movies and you don’t see his face — Ryan Reynolds, is he one of those?” she asked.
“And you want to know something? He’s not so funny in real life,” she insisted. “No, he’s not so funny. He’s very serious.”
Stewart revealed that her picks would’ve been Brad Pitt and George Clooney, adding, “I’d like to hang out with those guys.”
When Jain mentioned Taylor Swift, Stewart replied, “I was only thinking men. Taylor Swift is lovely.”
Stewart then said she would rank Swift first on the list, followed by Snoop Dogg.
“Then I would take Ryan off it, and I would put in somebody else,” she continued.
Jain asked whom she would add, and she responded, “George Clooney, ‘cause he’s fun. George is really nice to hang out with.”
When Jain said he was surprised to hear that she didn’t think Reynolds was funny, she further clarified her stance on the star, who shares a home with wife Blake Lively in Bedford, N.Y., near Stewart’s own farm.
“He’s a good actor,” she acknowledged. “He can act funny, but he isn’t funny. Maybe he can get to be funny again.
“I’m going to get in trouble,” she added. “He’s my neighbor.”
Stewart appeared on the game show to promote her new cookbook, Martha: The Cookbook: 100 Favorite Recipes, with Lessons and Stories from My Kitchen, released Oct. 22.
October also saw the premiere of Martha, R.J. Cutler’s new Netflix documentary that recounts the events of the culinary icon’s storied life.
“I just hope that everyone gets a few life lessons from the film and understands what’s been going on,” Stewart told PEOPLE at the movie’s New York premiere.
