American Pie star, Jennifer Coolidge recounts how she ‘slept with 200 people’ after playing a MILF role
Jennifer Coolidge has revealed she’s slept with 200 people due to her infamous role in the 1999 movie “American Pie.”
The 60-year-old, who played Jeanine “Stifler’s Mom” Stifler, became a household name on the back of its success and its sequels, even popularising the term ‘MILF’ (Mother I’d Like to F***) in reference to a line from the film.
American Pie star, Jennifer Coolidge reveals she.
The actress joked she ‘got a lot of action’ on the back of her infamous role. Speaking to Vareity, she said;
“Ya know, I got a lot of play being a MILF.
“And I got a lot of sexual action from American Pie. There was so many benefits to doing that movie … There would be, like, 200 people that I would never have slept with.”
Her performance led to her reprising her part in American Pie 2 (2001), American Wedding (2003) and American Reunion (2012) and also landing roles in Legally Blonde and A Cinderella Story – and even a bit-part in the iconic sitcom Friends.
The star revealed she struggled for acting work prior to American Pie, admitting that decades of rejection left her with a feeling that she had nothing to lose – rather than being downbeat.
