No — not talking about Harry Reid, but about an item that Wombat linked this morning in his “Live at Five” headline roundup:
Denise Richards hasn’t always been happy with her body. In the new issue of Us Weekly (out now), the 40-year-old actress opens up about her series of botched boob jobs — and why she decided to show them off in Playboy.
“When I was 19, a doctor put in bigger implants than what I asked for. I was in such a hurry to get them that I didn’t research my doctor,” Richards says. . . .
So why did the Real Girl Next Door author decide to doff her top for Playboy in 2004? “A couple reasons: I wanted to encourage women that it’s OK to embrace your sexuality even though you’re a mom,” Richards explains. “At the same time, I was having some problems in my marriage [to Charlie Sheen] and I didn’t feel sexy and felt I had to prove something.”
Some advice, ladies:
- Sexy is not something you can buy from a plastic surgeon.
- If you’re going to get naked in a magazine, OK. But don’t try to tell us it’s about altruism, a selfless effort to “encourage women that it’s OK to embrace your sexuality even though you’re a mom.” You’re not Gandhi. And Playboy magazine isn’t about feminist consciousness-raising.
- Don’t ever get involved with Charlie Sheen.
And now for news a different kind of fake boob: Hollywood is using CGI to fake nude scenes, so if you think you’re going to see Olivia Wilde’s nipples in a movie, you’re wrong.
I wanted to encourage women that it’s OK to embrace your sexuality even though you’re a mom,
So she did so in a magazine with a demographic that is mostly male mixed with teenaged boys fapping.
So that’s how feminine empowerment works..
“Hollywood is using CGI to fake nude scenes” Good heavens! Next you’ll be telling us that actors don’t do their own stunts!
Call this feminist engineer-turned-lawyer crazy, but last I checked, it is not “empowering” to take off your clothes to titillate men you’ve never met who don’t give a rat’s behind about you.
But what if the rat got back?
Please don’t spread that meme around too much. I enjoy the divine form feminine.
Adult film industry hardest hit. Give it another 5 years and they won’t need actrons of any description for anything.
And just think, all you “history” buffs: Catherine the Great’s horse scene in 3D Imax….. and they can still use the tag that “no animals were harmed in the making of this film.”
I don’t see a downside… or a going-downside.
I am just so excited for all the director’s cut dvd releases that will be greatly improved with gratuitous albeit fake nudity.
On Golden Pond,
Pretty Woman,
Fried Green Tomatoes,
Steel Magnolias,
Every movie with Catherine Zeta Jones,
Showgirls.
Actually that last one just needs muted.
[…] Plus Stacy links and causes a bit of McCainalanche. If he keeps that up I may have to establish a freakin’ tip jar. Running with the big dogs. Stay on the porch and all that. Thanks! […]
Ah, but over the last few years ’empowering’ is the Magical Word that excuses/’explains’/gives someone permission to do things; so for her and other such twits, it IS their explanation.
