It’s no secret that New Orleans is a hot-bed of culture and entertainment but did you have any idea so many of your favorite stars were from here? Turn on your www.directstartv.com satellite and keep an eye out for some of the Big Easy’s most famous female actresses…
Ellen Degeneres: Comedy’s golden lady was born and bred her in LA and she doesn’t take it lightly. You won’t hear much of a Cajun drawl from Ellen but she knows how to cook with the best of them.
Patricia Clarkson: Yeah, we always assumed she was from New York, too. Raymond’s wife is actually a native New Orleansean and she’s got the fiery attitude you’d expect even if she has since moved to Hollywood.
Reese Witherspoon: You assumed she was southern all along but did you know she grew up just down the street from the French Quarter? It doesn’t get much more a-list than Mrs. Witherspoon and her family still lives right here in town. Imagine that!
Who knew N.O. was such a great place for star sightings?!
