Growing from teen star to Hollywood media mogul, Reese Witherspoon is America’s southern belle. Her breakthrough role in 2002’s Legally Blonde paved the way for her more critically acclaimed roles. Winning an Academy Award for Best Actress in Walk The Line and nominated for Wild, she’s shifted focus, producing films with female leading roles like Gone Girl. She prides herself on being a women’s and children’s activist, a dog-video lover, and an avid reader of books. In 2015, she Instagrammed her behind-the-scenes Academy Awards experience and pushed the #AskHerMore hashtag on social. Her Instagram @reesewitherspoon shows Reese regularly enjoying life and sticking to her principles.
