Burn! Martha Stewart doesn’t think Ryan Reynolds is very funny.Though known for his comedic acting roles, Reynolds, 48, lacks comedic chops, according to Stewart, 83, who is also the “Deadpool & Wolverine” star’s neighbor.
The iconic homemaker dished her thoughts on Reynolds while appearing as a special guest on Bilt Rewards’ November “Rent Free” game show.The game show, similar to “Family Feud,” is streamed on the credit card company’s mobile app.
