Ahead of the highly anticipated return of The White Lotus on October 15, Jennifer Coolidge has been reminiscing about her past acting roles, including one that has been particularly, uh, beneficial. 

In a sit-down interview with Variety, the 60-year-old actor looked back at her breakout role as Stifler's Mom in American Pie. After being asked whether she prefers to be called an Emmy nominee or a "MILF," she opened up about the action she got following the film's success. 

"I got a lot of play [from] being a MILF and I got a lot of sexual action from American Pie," she said. "There were so many benefits to doing that movie. I mean, there would be like 200 people that I would never have slept with."

For those who (really?) haven't seen an American Pie movie, the franchise's first instalment in 1999 introduced audiences to Coolidge as Steve Stifler's (Seann William Scott) mother. Colloquially called "Stifler's Mom" throughout the franchise, Steve's friends constantly tease him about his attractive mother — eventually leading to one of said friends sleeping with her. 

Needless to say, we're glad she got her bag from American Pie in more than one way.
