The 46-year-old American Crime Story and Ratched actress took to her Instagram on Thursday (January 14) to pen a sweet message for the Two and a Half Men actress on her 78th birthday.
“All roads lead me to this face, those eyes, that soul. You are, quite simply- everything to me. Here’s looking at you, kid. Today. Tomorrow. Always. (If you don’t like this picture, you are an idiot, so don’t get mad when you see it,” Sarah wrote along with a black and white photo of Holland.
“I even made it black and white since you prefer it. So shhhhhh. It’s a perfect picture of a perfect person) HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARLING,” Sarah concluded.
Holland then reacted to Sarah‘s message, writing, “”S P E E C H L E S S !!!”
The trailer for the 45-year-old actress and TV host’s new movie The Stand In was released.
Here’s the synopsis for the new movie: When ordered to serve a year in rehab, actress Candy (Barrymore) hires her on set stand-in to take her place. The unassuming woman flips the script and steals her identity, career and boyfriend in this hilarious comedy about trading places.
Sarah Paulson has been in a relationship with actress Holland Taylor for years now, and she’s speaking out about their 32-year age gap.
In her Harper’s Bazaar cover story, Sarah, 45, was asked why the public seems fascinated that she’s dating Holland, 77.
Sarah said the preoccupation is because of “our own ageist thinking and the idea that to be old is to cease to have any desire…Anybody says anything about any person I love in a way that is disrespectful or cruel and I want to cut a b*tch.”
“To feel that I belong to anyone other than a person I would like to belong to, like Holland or my dog or my best friend or my sister … a bunch of strangers claiming me as their own feels a little confusing,” Sarah added. “Since I’m not an expert at figuring out how to move around it, I end up giving more than I want to sometimes.”
We don’t see Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor out and about in public together too often, but we have some rare new photos of the longtime couple!
The 77-year-old Hollywood actress and the 45-year-old American Horror Story actress were spotted shopping together on Melrose Place on Thursday (August 27) in West Hollywood, Calif.
Holland was recently nominated for an Emmy Award for her work on the Netflix limited series Hollywood. Perhaps they were looking for something for her to wear for the virtual ceremony next month?
Holland Taylor is opening up about one of her most loved films, Legally Blonde, in a brand new interview.
Speaking with Vulture, the 77-year-old actress, who played Professor Stromwell in the movie, revealed her most favorite scene.
“It was very well structured. Her whole demeanor at the beginning where she’s running the class — it’s wonderful to play as a woman, as an actress,” Holland says about the first scene she appears in, as Elle attends her first class at Harvard University. “I’ve been very lucky and for whatever reason, I get to play a lot of professional women. And professional women have their own world, their own identity, and their own character based on their profession.”
She continued, “The whole issue of what roles women play and what roles men play — women get to play the wife, the mother, the sister, the daughter. It’s always in relationship to the man. And it’s unconscious. That’s our unconscious image of the world because those are women’s places. So I’ve had a couple of best friend roles. But to have a profession allows you to play a role that is governed, that is shaped, by the profession. And to be a professional person in the legal field gives you an enormous sense of power and sway, because you know better than anybody.”
Holland goes on, saying that Professor Stromwell running “that classroom and to have all of the things one does with the student to teach them, and also to scare them, and to give them an unsolvable problem. It was very, very exciting.”
She also talked about working with Reese Witherspoon on the project, calling her remarkable, among other things.
“It’s a very clever idea, and a really charming entry into the area of women’s rights and the perception of women in our society,” she shared of the film. “And Reese is just remarkable.”
Holland adds, “She’s one of our marvelous actresses who has brought a number of roles that will be indelible culturally, and this is one of them. It was just a classic case of playing a professional person who had real resonance with the audience.”
