Meryl Streep Reveals She Had ‘Beef’ With Goldie Hawn on ‘Death Becomes Her’ Set
Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn haven’t always been on the same wavelength — despite their decades long friendship.
Speaking to Vanity Fair on Thursday, April 30, Streep, 76, admitted she faced a major pet peeve with Hawn when they worked together on 1992’s Death Becomes Her.
“Goldie, she was always late to set,” Streep told the outlet. “But she was so adorable. And I’m always on time, you know, and annoying. But she’s late, and she had a red convertible, I remember, and she’d drive herself to set. So that was probably the problem.”
Streep admitted she struggled with Hawn, 80, due to the actress’ frustrating habit.
“She’d drive herself to set. She had her hair all…’Oh gosh, sorry!’ And everybody thought, ‘Oh, she’s so cute.’ Yeah. So I had a beef with her,” Steep added.
Streep and Hawn were in their 40s when they starred in the supernatural black comedy, which encompassed themes of aging and struggling with mortality.
The film’s plot followed Madeline Ashton (Streep) and Helen Sharp (Hawn) who go head to head over their shared plastic surgeon love interest, Dr. Ernest Menville, who was portrayed by Bruce Willis.
The Devil Wears Prada actress said the pair have laughed about the premise of the film in the years since it was made, and added that their friendship has endured despite Hawn’s on-set lateness at the time.
“I loved her. I love her,” she added. “She’s one of my buddies, and over the years, we’ve had some laughs about that movie because people love it. I thought it was like a documentary on Beverly Hills.”
Streep’s comments about her past grievances with Hawn come after another “beef” with a high-profile star — Travis Kelce.
After Streep playfully dissed the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Travis’s brother Jason, 38, asked him on Wednesday, April 29, episode of their “New Heights” podcast: “Do we have beef with Meryl Streep?”
Travis was quick to share his adoration for the acclaimed actress in his response to the potential feud.
“That’s a powerful woman right there,” he said. “I am a fan of Meryl Streep. I don’t have any beef with her.”
Jason then played a clip of Streep taking aim at Travis while promoting her new movie The Devil Wears Prada 2.
“The hardest thing about shooting in Milan was walking in stilettos on the cobblestones. I’d like to see Travis Kelce do that,” Streep joked.
Seeing the funny side, Travis quipped in response, “Oh Meryl, you have no idea how good I am at walking in heels. OK?”
