It’s really crazy to think that Legally Blonde came out 15 years ago, but then again, it feels like we’ve been teleported back to 2001 with everyone playing Pokemon and the guitarist from Limp Bizkit talking about his reality show. Just a quick check of your smartphone’s calendar will tell you that it’s 2016, and Reese Witherspoon still has it as Elle Woods a decade and a half later.
The Oscar winning actress posted a few videos to honor the 15th birthday of Legally Blonde including a very informative clip on how to do Elle Woods’ famous flirting technique, ‘The Bend and Snap.’ Do you think she just did it with a normal Bic pen? No way, Witherspoon whipped out Elle’s only writing instrument worthy of a Harvard Law Student: A pink fluffy pen.
In a special interview with Instagram, Witherspoon said that performing the ‘Bend and Snap’ is still something she gets asked to do frequently saying, “I have a feeling I will be doing the bend and snap until I am 95.” She’ll probably still look good doing it then too. Witherspoon also showed off her bunny costume from the movie and tossed on Elle’s pink newsboy cap; which still looks absolutely adorable on the actress and mother of three.

Witherspoon also discussed in her interview the impact that Legally Blonde has made on a generation of women, stating: “I have had so many women say, ‘I went to law school because of ‘Legally Blonde.’ It actually had a meaningful story. And it was about female empowerment. It wasn’t necessarily about the girl getting the guy.”
