  • On this episode of Street You Grew Up On, Kerry Washington and Reese Witherspoon take a trip out to the countryside of Nashville, Tennessee. We take a look into her charming childhood filled with good food, good music, and lots of adventure. Growing up, Reese was a spirited tomboy with a big imagination and loved to explore out in nature. Her grandmother introduced her to books at an early age which inspired Reese’s lifelong passion for reading. This hobby allowed her mind to travel to different worlds, which in turn sparked her curious mind to see what was out there in the real world beyond her bubble. Her dream as a child was to be Dolly Parton when she grew up, but would eventually catch the acting bug unknowingly passed down from her great uncle generations later.

    Her childhood reminds me of mines, being southerner. You don't come home until the lights come on at night. You explore your neighborhood. Learning how to swim by jumping in the lake. And this was the 80's.

In fact, I'm making a trip home soon and it's been a very long time since I've been there. I'm interested to see how some things have changed and how some things have remained the same.

    I ❤ your series! It’s fun and intimate enough that I feel like I’m actually just sitting in the room with you and your guest sitting quietly and being taken in by the conversation you are sharing learning fun and relatable things about the people we admire most…people who if we could pick our friends from all the people in the world it feels like each one of them would be a great choice. I have loved Reese Witherspoon ever since as a young girl I saw her in The Man In The Moon. That movie touched me so much that I wanted to be her best friend way back then🤗 My fantasy friend pool is growing with every episode I watch 😅. Thank you Kerry! I love seeing how much you are loved too! Awesome concept!

I loved watching you and Will Ferrell on set..didn't actually get to talk with ya but I remember grinning at you once when we cut. ..hope to Cordially meet one day.❤ ..wishing you a beautiful, successful and Happy New Year!🎉- Karl.

When visiting my old neighborhood (East Harlem in NY) I’ve attempted to re-visit my old apartment where I grew up as a kid. I knock on the door but the resident didn’t open the door/was home. 🤣🤣🤣. I’ve done that several times.
