Here at Her Towers we’ve long been admirers of Melissa McCarthy. From her days as Sookie in Gilmore Girls, to her show-stealing performance in Bridesmaids, we can’t get enough of the Hollywood star. In our humble opinion, she’d make for the perfect celeb BFF.
To celebrate the release of her brand spanking new film, Spy, we’ve decided to gather the evidence as to why she’d make a great bestie. Check it out below.
