“The only thing I said to him was just don’t make me look like an old person trying to look young because that’s stupid and tired,” she said. “That’s not who I am. He just cracked up and was like, ‘we’re on the same page, don’t worry darling.’” Perez returned to the Oscars to reunite with her “White Men Can’t Jump” castmates Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson to celebrate the film’s 30 year anniversary.
