Meryl Streep Reveals the One Thing She’s Really Bad At
Meryl Streep has earned more Oscar nominations than anyone in Academy Awards history. Even when a movie she’s in falls bellows expectations at the box office, she racks up more accolades. The woman can do no wrong when it comes to acting. She also exhibits an awesome sense of humor and confidence in whatever she does.
However, there is something that she finds challenging.
“I can’t do a lot of things, like golf. I don’t like golf,” she said at a news conference to promote her latest movie, Florence Foster Jenkins. “I mean, I really don’t because I tend to like things that I can do right away. If I can’t do it right away, I don’t like it.”
Streep discovered her aversion on the golf course with Don Gummer, her husband of nearly 38 years and the father of her four adult children.
“I never hit the ball ever,” she said. “I remember my husband saying, ‘You’re coming up on the ball. You’re coming up.’ And I said, ‘I’m not coming up!’ … I’m like hunkered down, and I hit right on the top of it, and there was the ball always sitting there. I took it and went home. I don’t like it.”
So, in the past two days, we’ve learned that Streep’s strengths do not include golf and Snapchat.
Good thing she has something to fall back on!
