Let me aim that criticism back at you: You're my peer and yet here you are reading a suspicious headline and assuming it's true.

Did you even click the link and see that it is from https://www.fashiontimes.co.uk/? The source of this story is Witherspoon who told the story while on the Graham Norton talk show. Don't you suspect she may have embellished the story for the sake of entertainment on the talk show?

I deserve every bit of criticism. Graham Norton is where I get all my unbiased non-sensationalized news!

To stick another fork in u/LeonardSmallsJr: the entire article was written by AI. It's incredibly obvious AI writing as well, to the point that I suspect most people here could identify it if they had only been bothered to click on the headline.
