‘I had these amazing parents. And they had this incredible gift. It was impossible for them to lie,’ the blonde bombshell explained.
‘They just couldn’t do it. Never, they just never lied,’ she went one, before sharing how one day her father broke his rule and took her out of school after making up a fake excuse, so that he could take her to the Charlie Chaplin film festival.
‘The school principal came to my first grade class and said that I needed to be called to the office. And I went to the office and she said, “Your father is here”‘ the star shared.
‘My father was sitting there and saying “Yeah, Jenny, we have to go,”‘ Coolidge recalled.
‘And the principal said, “Jennifer, get well” and I didn’t know what that meant,’ she said as the audience laughed.

Coolidge then explained that her dad took her to the festival, which left quite a big impression of her and inspired her love of acting.
‘I swear to God, seeing Charlie Chaplin for the first time, and having that experience – it’s my love of film, it’s my love of actors, all of that came from my first grade.’
The Legally Blonde star also thanked White, saying: ‘Mike White, you can give money to friends … and people like money. The best gift you can give to someone is change their perspective. And that’s what Mike White did for me.’
At the end of her speech she hilariously thanked her friend and date for the night, actor Tim Bagley, 65. ‘My wonderful date Tim Bagley is my date tonight, he’s my best bud for like 20 years. Thank you, you’re a wonderful date tonight, I can’t wait until we get home,’ she said to a roar of laughter from the audience.
