‘I Don’t Have 102 Sacks’: Emmy Award-Winning Actor Engages In Hilarious Exchange With 2x DPOY JJ Watt

Arizona Cardinals Defensive end JJ Watt, and Hollywood actress, Julia Louis-Dreyfus are the two successful celebrities in their respective fields. Recently they caught up in a Twitter discussion asserting each-others greatness and achievements.

Louis-Dreyfus is a nine-time Emmy award winner for her performance and production of the HBO comedy show “Veep”. She won six-Emmys straight in a stretch from 2015-to 17. While all these statistics are on board, the five-time All-pro defensive end believes claims that she is underrated.

Louis-Dreyfus responds to Watt’s Tweet

Louis-Dreyfus is unarguably one of the best comedy superstars gracing her presence on the silver screen. It seems the Cardinals DE, J J Watt, is a fan of her wit. Taking on Twitter, the DE shared his concerns for the actor. “Julia Louis-Dreyfus won 6 consecutive Emmys for Veep, and I still think her performance might be underrated”. Watt tweeted on Wednesday.

While it seemed like a random message for his fans, the very next day, it received a response from the actress herself. Louis-Dreyfus responded to the tweet in a satirical way, yet hailing the NFL superstar for his achievements.

“Yeah, but I don’t have 102 sacks. Yet” she wrote. Fans were keen to react to her response. Despite being such a great actress garnering millions of followers more than Watt on social media, Louis-Dreyfus displayed her humbleness and respect for the NFL star.
