REESE WITHERSPOON: This is going to sound weird, but I like insects and spiders. I was kind of a tomboy growing up. It grosses everybody out, but I like to pick up bugs.
NP: What, if anything, are you actually afraid of?
RW: I get scared of being on really tall buildings and looking down.
NP: And you did that too for your BAZAAR shoot! I’m impressed. Speaking of impressed, I watched the first three episodes of The Morning Show [streaming in Australia as Morning Wars] last night. It’s wonderful!
RW: Of course you did all your homework like that. You’re the cutest. I can’t handle it.
NP: You and Jen [Aniston] were friends before the show, right?
RW: We met on the set of Friends — I played her sister. I was 23 years old and had just had a baby. I was nursing Ava on set and Jen just kept going, “You just had a baby?” and I was like, “I know, it’s weird.” And I remember her being like, “Where are you going?” And I was like, “I’m pumping!”
NP: Oh my god.
RW: She was so sweet to me. I was really nervous, and she was like, “Oh my gosh — don’t worry about it!” I marvelled at her ability to perform in front of a live audience like that with no nerves. They would change all the lines, and she was just so effortlessly affable, bubbly and sunny. We’ve been friends ever since.
NP: How involved were you in developing [Morning Wars]?
