From elevating a mere normal scenery featuring a tree and a lake to ethereal beauty through the art of cinematography to using the art of performance to help audiences digest the toughest of pills, Hollywood and cinema are a compilation of several art forms that collaborate to make it the extravaganza that it is. However, what the industry is perhaps most relevant for is the art of not-so-subtle insults, which was depicted at its best by Martha Stewart as she spilled the beans on her neighbor, Ryan Reynolds.

While Ryan Reynolds effectively proved that Deadpool is the Marvel Jesus with the blockbuster resurrection, he pulled off alongside Hugh Jackman, his filmography alongside other endeavors is testament that Reynolds' IP is being the funny guy, rather than being a credible contestant for the Academy Awards. Therefore, imagine the shock of his fans when Martha Stewart, in her latest appearance on November Rent Free revealed the contrary as she said, "He is not so funny in real life," but "he is a good actor."
