Reese Witherspoon has said that she thinks it is important for actors to have other interests.
The 34-year-old Oscar winner insisted that it is not enough to just have a movie career.
She told Total Film: “I like to take classes, I read a lot – I have a lot of interests so your whole life isn’t just about making movies. That’s a dangerous place to be.”
Witherspoon went on to say that while she admires actresses such as Meryl Streep, she thinks spending time with her 11-year-old daughter Ava and 7-year-old son Deacon is more important than constantly focussing on her movie projects.
She explained: “As an actress, it would be lovely to think that we’re all Meryl Streep or Diane Keaton who just works endlessly but that’s not true.
“It’s important to cultivate a personal life that makes you just as happy as your professional life and I work really hard on that. I spend time with my kids and my girlfriends. It’s important to enrich yourself in lot of different ways.”

Reese Witherspoon Shops for Wedding Dress

Reese Witherspoon, 35, is in a wedding dress whirl. After her engagement to Jim Toth hit the celeb channels last December, Reese began a shopping frenzy, including a trip to Paris to visit hot designer spots such as Chanel and Louis Vuitton. An elegant wedding requires a lot of fancy, designer stuff, after all.
But, reports US magazine, yesterday (Sunday) she couldn’t resist a visit to that LA mecca, Melrose Avenue, where she checked out Monique Lhuillier’s famous boutique to the stars. That’s where Carrie Underwood’s fabulous wedding dress was recently created. Will Reese Witherspoon’s be next? There is no word, yet, on whether a selection was made, and the actual date is still up in the air.
The shopping trip took Reese away from a special, casual weekend where she and Jim celebrated their one-year-together anniversary. They took in a rock concert Saturday night and just generally hung out together. Maybe a preview of married life?

Reese Witherspoon lets men chase her

Newly engaged Reese Witherspoon, who has had a string of high profile relationships with some of Hollywood’s most eligible bachelors, admits that her friends helped her change her outlook on love.
“A good girlfriend of mine said to me there’s something you learn as you get older as a woman: stop chasing after men and start looking at the men that are chasing you,” she explains. “That’s a hard thing to recognise, but it really rings true with me.”
The mother-of-two also reveals that she’s finally got the work-life balance just right – and couldn’t be happier.
“It’s important to cultivate a personal life that makes you just as happy as your professional life and I work really hard on that. I have a lot of interests so your whole life isn’t just about making movies. That’s a dangerous place to be,” she adds.
Reese wants more children

Reese Witherspoon, who got engaged to Hollywood talent agent Jim Toth recently, says she wants to extend her family. The 34-year-old actor already has two children — 11-year-old Ava and seven-year-old Deacon with ex-husband actor Ryan Phillipe. “Oh sure, I would be lucky to have more kids. When it starts out, it’s physically exhausting, and then it becomes very emotional. It’s been really fascinating,” said the Legally Blonde star.
Witherspoon ended her marriage with Phillipe in 2006, but insisted that dating as a single mother was not difficult as it showed the men who were interested in pursuing a relationship with her would be willing to embrace family life.
“In some ways, it’s really good, because if somebody’s not interested in having a family, they don’t want to go out with you in the first place. It kind of weeds out the guys who aren’t serious,” the Hollywood beauty added.
