Glen Powell’s Playful Response to Mom’s Teasing Sparks Social Media Buzz

Glen Powell playfully responds to his mom’s teasing remarks after she pokes fun at him, jokingly asking for recommendations for a good nursing home. The lighthearted banter follows an article on E! News discussing how Cyndy Powell, Glen’s mother, keeps him grounded.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday, the 35-year-old actor shared the article titled “Why Glen Powell’s Mom Described Him as a ‘Little Douchey,'” quipping, “Anyone have good nursing home recommendations? I feel like it’s time.”

Despite the jest, Powell maintains a close bond with his mom, and the “little douchey” comment actually originated from him. At the Sundance premiere of his latest film, Hit Man, Powell spoke fondly of his parents, Cyndy and Glen Powell Sr., who accompanied him on the red carpet.

Acknowledging his rising fame, Powell credited his parents for keeping him humble, noting how his mother is often quick to notice any changes. He revealed that his mom’s main critique is usually directed at his fashion choices, particularly his popped collars, which she deems “a little douchey.”

However, Powell values his family immensely, emphasizing that they provide him with stability amid the whirlwind of fame. He expressed gratitude for their unwavering support, highlighting their presence at every premiere and their eagerness to celebrate his achievements.

Last November, Powell shared a heartfelt tribute to his parents on social media, commemorating their 40th anniversary with a collection of family photos taken at the Jefferson Memorial, where his dad proposed to his mom. He expressed appreciation for their enduring love and the positive influence they continue to have on his life.
