Lily Tomlin: ‘You have to be fit to hang out with Jane Fonda’

Lily Tomlin has discovered a downside to her friendship with Jane Fonda – you have to keep fit.
The two actresses met when they shot 1980 movie 9 to 5 together and they’re now co-stars on hit comedy Grace & Frankie, but Tomlin admits it can be tough having a 1980s fitness guru as a pal.
“She does kind of lord it over you,” Lily tells talk show host Ellen DeGeneres. “She’s incredibly well fit for her age and even not for her age; for someone who’s 20 years old she’d be well fit.
“I have worked out with her and I’ve faked it very well… I do planks.”
Lily, who turns 80 in September (19), adds, “I don’t mind it (getting older) as long as I’m walking.”
