Ryan Reynolds responds to neighbor Martha Stewart who says he’s ‘not that funny’

Ryan Reynolds has responded to Martha Stewart’s claim that he’s “not that funny in real life.”

‘I don’t agree with her. But I tried that once,” the 48-year-old “Deadpool & Wolverine” star tweeted Saturday under a video of Stewart, 83, talking about his humor on Bilt Rewards’ “Rent Free” game show in November.

He added: “The woman is unexpectedly spry. She really closed the gap after a kilometer or so.

The lifestyle guru made the comments about her longtime friend and neighbor while trying to guess who respondents to a Bilt Rewards survey said would be the most fun celebrity to spend time with.

“He’s probably on the list just because he covers himself in his movies and you don’t see his face – Ryan Reynolds, is he one of them?” she asked.

‘And do you want to know something? He’s not that funny in real life. No, he’s not that funny. He is very serious.”

She later doubled down in the video, adding, “He’s a good actor. He can be funny, but he’s not funny.”

“Maybe he can become funny again… then I’ll get in trouble,” she laughed.

Of course, Stewart meant no harm by bringing up Reynolds, as the couple goes way back.

They met more than a decade ago when Reynolds and his current wife, Blake Lively, 37, bought a house near her farm in Bedford, NY.

The author of “Martha: The Cookbook: 100 Favorite Recipes, with Lessons and Stories from My Kitchen” told HuffPost in 2014 that they are “very friendly, very nice people” and even called the “It Ends With Us” star “shy ‘. ”

“I’ve just found her to be very generous and kind,” Lively said of Stewart during an interview with the Los Angeles Times in July 2014.

“She is one of those people who connects people.”
