LOS ANGELES, May 6: Reese Witherspoon delivered a touching speech honouring Goldie Hawn as she was inducted to the Hollywood Walk of Fame, saying the veteran actress changed the possibilities for women in films.
The 41-year-old actress said Hawn has been an inspiration for her and she wants to be remembered like her idol, reported Entertainment Tonight.
“Since the first time I saw her onscreen, Goldie has just inspired me. She’s taught me to want more out of my life, out of my films, and she taught me to want more out of my career. And I became a producer because of her. She changed the possibilities of what women can do in films. So, thank you, Goldie.
“Thank you for inspiring us, all of us. Thank you for inspiring women and actresses to control their own destiny and for inspiring women to demand respect, no matter where they are or what they’re doing. And thank you for making us laugh, and thank you for making us happy.
“She just lights up the screen, she’s lit up my life. And I hope one day I can be held in the same esteem that I hold her. She’s changed my life. And she’s quite simply my idol, and I love you, Goldie,” Witherspoon said. (PTI)
