Jennifer Coolidge slept with 200 people after Stifler’s Mom role in American Pie

Stifler’s Mom might be one of Jennifer Coolidge’s most iconic roles, but her time in American Pie had an unexpected benefit for the actress – she ended up sleeping with 200 people because of it.

Jennifer, 60, played the iconic MILF (Mother I’d Like To F**k) Jeanine Stifler – better known as Stifler’s Mom – in the American Pie series, and the sex appeal she exuded in the role ended up extending into real life.

Speaking about her most famous characters, Jennifer revealed why she liked starring in American Pie the most.

She told Variety: ‘I got a lot of play at being a MILF and I got a lot of sexual action from American Pie.

‘There were so many benefits to doing that movie. I mean, there would be like 200 people that I would never have slept with.’

As well as Stifler’s Mom, Jennifer is also well-known for roles in White Lotus and Legally Blonde.

While Legally Blonde has spawned some famous quotes – mostly from Jennifer’s character of Paulette Bonafonté Parcelle – there’s one in particular that Jennifer has had enough of.

She explained: ‘[It’s] “You look like the Fourth of July! Makes me want a hotdog real bad!”

‘All day long and all night. So many people say it on the plane, for f**k’s sake. It’s exhausting this hotdog story.

‘I have to go with it. I go, “Oh my God, you sound just like me when you say that.”’

Jennifer also admits the movies helped her land subsequent roles, adding: ‘Maybe I got this special attention because people saw me as Stifler’s Mom or the Legally Blonde woman. So if they see something else…

‘People that I could never get in the door – all of a sudden they’re asking me to be part of their things.’
