Reese Witherspoon refuses sex with Vince Vaughn on set

On the set of Four Christmases, a comedy set to come out at the end of the year, tensions are overboard as Reese Witherspoon is refusing a sex scene with Vince Vaughn. Vaughn's laidback, improvisational style is clashing with Witherspoon's more professional mantra and it's finally reached a fever pitch.

Initially, Cinematical reported about how the two actors were bickering with the way the other actor worked. And it's gotten worse, according to Digital Spy:
  • Reese has an issue with the scripted love scene. It is meant to be a funny, American Pie-style romp, full of bumps and laughs, but Reese is of such a prude, she thinks it's just too much.
Um. It's Vince Vaughn. He's gross and disgusting. Any woman (or man!) in their right mind would feel uncomfortable faking sex with him.


Four Christmases, set to be released on November 14, 2008, follows Witherspoon and Vaughn as they visit each of their divorced parents (4 sets of families) for Christmas.

Wait, wait, wait. She signed on to do this film knowing there was a sex scene and now she's throwing a fit? Or did she sign on script-unseen? Because in the middle of shooting is a really shitty time to decide you're not doing a sex scene with someone. Did he say or do something really insulting he hasn't apologized for?

Isn't there a way she could use a body double for the more revealing shots? Can't she and Vaughn come to a compromise on how the scene can be shot? There's got to be a better way to handle this than out and out refusal.

oh she get squished. of course. He is funny. I am sure he would make the scene a little more comfortable.
Maybe she only does sex scenes with Hotfaces. NICE!

Did she sign up for this? Because she gets no sympathy if she knew about it it beforehand.

If she's signing up for a comedy, she should be lighthearted about it!
Vince Vaughn doesn't strike me as some terrible person to work with, and the middle of a movie is a terrible time to back out. =/ I hope it gets resolved.

If Hannah Montana can use a body double, I'm sure Reese can too.

reese witherspoon has kinda bothered me sometimes but i'm definitely on her side.
vince vaughn is sicknasty.
she could get a body double though but shouldn't she have been aware of this before she signed on for this?????

i think thats a mean thing to say about vince vaughn i mean if hes been out with the likes of jennifer annisten he mustnt b tht bad . i personaly dont find him attractive but i dont find him ugly and if reese did sign up for the film she should be up for anything cos she read the script.

vince vaughn is a hotttie, i'd do him.

They made her sound like she said that mean thing about him being gross but she didn't...notice how they don't have quotation marks and something saying -Reese Witherspoon..that's cuz they're not allowed to do that so they want everyone to think that's what she said but she didn't....but anywho, I think she is great for not doing the scene..it's not that he's gross or mean or nasty or anything, it's just she doesn't believe it. She just doesn't feel comfortable and it's hard to find an actor/actress that is bold and brave enough to say "NO". ..so yeah GO REESE!! I LOVE YOU

The prosthetic appendage must have been the deal breaker.

reese witherspoon is a freakin' republi-prude. i can't stand her and her big weird goody goody conservative face.
djmark: 01/12/2008 4:27 PM
