What excites Sarah Michelle Gellar the most is very relatable

Gellar may be one of the most well-known actresses of our time and be worth millions of dollars, but at the end of the day, she is just like the rest of us. Recently, Gellar did an interview with US Weekly where she shared 25 things that people don’t know about her.

A few of the things that she shared were pretty surprising. For example, she said that she learned to juggle while she was working on set. She also loves to binge-watch The Bachelor, although she did admit that she was not really into the show this season because the cast seems a little boring.

Another thing that she shared is that she gets really excited when she is able to get six hours of sleep in a row. Because Gellar is a mother of two and also works a full-time job, it is easy to understand why she may get excited by being able to sleep for six consecutive hours. And as many of us know, being an adult can be a very tiring and hectic endeavor.

So, hearing that Gellar gets excited about sleep is probably one of the most relatable things that the award-winning actress has ever said.
