After the lifestyle guru claimed that the Deadpool star, who also happens to be her neighbor, is "not so funny in real life," Reynolds responded on X—and so did his costar Hugh Jackman.

What's the old saying? Something about how a person can hide a lot behind a smile or a sense of humor?

In the case of Deadpool's Ryan Reynolds, apparently he's hiding that he isn't very funny, at least without a script.

While on the game show Rent Free, lifestyle guru Martha Stewart was answering a series of questions, including, "What celebrities would be the most fun to hang out with?"

Stewart decided to answer the question based on what she assumed fans believed, instead of what she knew, so she guessed one of the celebrities would be Ryan Reynolds.

When it was confirmed that she was right, Stewart retorted:

"You want to know something? He's not so funny in real life."
"No, he's not so funny. He's very serious."

Stewart at least conceded:

"He's a good actor. He can act funny. But he isn't funny."

Cringing, Stewart continued:

"I'm going to get into trouble. He's my neighbor."

The sharp-tongued comic, named 2010's Sexiest Man Alive, is definitely someone most fans would want to spend an afternoon with, so they were shocked at the reveal that Reynolds is able to play to the camera so well without being funny in real life.

But when the news broke, even Ryan Reynolds left the critique open to interpretation:

"I'd disagree with her. But I tried that once."
"The woman is unexpectedly spry. She really closed the gap after a mile or so."

Despite the mini-feud being about Reynolds not being funny, fans found the spat to be hilarious.





The moment only got funnier, though, when Reynolds' friend and Deadpool vs. Wolverine costar, Hugh Jackman spoke up.

"Finally someone says it."

The cackles of Reynolds and Jackman's fans could be heard across the internet.





It's no secret that actors' onscreen personas are different than who they are in real life! But Reynolds has always brought a certain vibe to his roles, so fans naturally assume he's funny in real life.

Whether he's more low-key in real life or Stewart's humor is simply too dry to match the Deadpool actor, this was an internet moment best served hot.

During a speech at Turning Point USA's AmericaFest conference, President-elect Donald Trump rejected claims that his billionaire ally Elon Musk is overshadowing him following backlash over Musk's role in blocking the emergency spending measure to prevent a government shutdown.

Trump dismissed the idea that he had “ceded the presidency” to Musk. He added that even if Musk aspired to the role, he wouldn’t qualify due to the Constitution’s stipulation that the U.S. president must be a natural-born citizen—a requirement Musk, born in South Africa, does not meet.
