What Martha said about Ryan

Martha spoke about Ryan on Bilt Rewards' Rent Free game show. She was asked which celebrities, according to her, is more fun to hang out with. She had said, "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?"

Martha also added, "And you want to know something? He's not so funny in real life. No, he's not so funny. He's very serious." She noted that Ryan, who is also her neighbour, is "a good actor. He can act funny, but he isn't funny. Maybe he can get to be funny again."
