Even when she landed her first major film feature as Dani Trant in The Man in the Moon at just the age of 14, she was still credited as Reese.
So when fans heard her say in a recent interview with LADbible Entertainment that it isn’t actually her name at all, they were left stunned.
“Reese” was chatting to LADBible in their segment called Do You Even Know Me? which is designed to supposedly test the friendship of two celebs.
Friends actress Jennifer Aniston, 56, appeared alongside her – and even she was shocked by the name revelation.
The revelation came out when the segment’s host prepared a question for Reese to ask Jennifer: What was her middle name?
“What is my middle name,” she said.
“A. Jane, B. Jeanne or C. Joan.”
Jennifer hesitated for only a moment, casting her eyes up to the ceiling before looking to Reese and saying, “A”.
“Jane?,” Reese replied. “It’s Jeanne.”
Jennifer sounded disappointed as well as confused.
“Jeanne?,” she said.
“I’m Laura Jeanne, that’s my real name,” responded Reese.
“Laura Jeanne?,” Jennifer echoed, looking at Reese in shock as she rocked a black blazer, a matching dark skirt, and a lacy black top.
“That’s my real name, yeah,” Reese confirmed, giggling at Jennifer’s confused look in her simple khaki green long sleeve and gray skirt.
“Laura?,” Jennifer asked one more time.
“Laura Jeanne,” giggled Reese again.
“Who’s Laura?,” Jennifer said to the camera, scrunching up her face in a mixture of confusion and laughter.
“Who the hell’s Laura?
“Wait Laura Jeanne, I’m not calling you that from now on.
“Come on, Laura Jeanne. Wait where did Reese come from?”.
It’s a question a number of fans were wondering, too.
“It’s my middle name,” Reese explained. “Laura-Jeanne Reese.”
“What made you go with Reese for your acting name?,” Jennifer questioned, becoming like an interviewer on the show.
“I didn’t change it, my name is just always Reese,” she said, remarking on how she was often called that anyway.
Jennifer then went on to reveal her middle name is Joanna, to which Reese aka “Laura Jeanne” said, “I was today years old” when I learned that.
Fans took to the comments section of the video to share their shock about the name change, as well as laugh at how hilarious Jennifer’s reaction to Reese’s real name was.
“Jen’s reaction to Laura Jeanne is priceless. It’s like shoe couldn’t believe it,” said one user.
“No but really who is Laura Jeanne,” “Who’s Laura?,” and “funniest duo,” commented others.
Reese Witherspoon is best known for her roles in Legally Blonde, critically-acclaimed Walk the Line, and the dark comedy Cruel Intentions.
She’s been taking home awards since 2006 including Academy Awards, BAFTAs, Teen Choice Awards, and Golden Globes.
