While the actor is engaged to former Miss Georgia 2012, Britt Sharp, he totally gushed about the American Crime Story actress, who played his fiancée in the film:
“I absolutely loved and adored Selma. I developed a crush on her at the time but she was with someone else ├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ I think she was dating the guy from Rushmore [Jason Schwartzman], but he was coming around and I was kind of like ├óΓé¼╦£Who is this guy?!'”
The 39-year-old explained he fell for her sense of humor:
“She was the funniest person on set. I love a very dry, dark sense of humor, so she had me in stitches the whole time… She was the bees’ knees.”
Dang!! He really did have a thing for Selma!
The Vampire Diaries star also admitted to being a huge fan of Reese Witherspoon, too:
“I fanboyed out on her and embarrassed myself. I felt starstruck by all this because it happened so quickly and I hadn’t adjusted. I definitely wasn’t cool. At the first table read, I just kept going on and on about how much I loved her work, fawning all over her. I remember turning beet-red and later getting back in my car and just slapping my forehead, feeling like a fool.”
It happens to the best of us!
At least Matt doesn’t feel like a “fool” for playing the movie’s preppy villain:
“People are like ├óΓé¼╦£Oh my God, you’re Warner, the asshole from Legally Blonde!’ I get a lot of ├óΓé¼╦£Oh, you’re such a jerk’… but I think it’s funny. I think it’s charming.”
Can everyone come back for Legally Blonde 3?? That’s what fans really want!!
