CLAIRE DANES IS FIRM

In her new film ‘Shopgirl’, Claire Danes has multiple love scenes with costar Steve Martin, including one in which she goes topless. Steve Martin is 60 years old and, despite seemingly going gray by age 9, he’s still 60 fricking years old, making any love scene with him, even one featuring a topless Claire Danes, pretty appalling.

A friend told her, “It’s good you’re doing it at 25. When you’re 80, you’ll look back on this and think, I was pretty firm, so there’s that,” Danes said. “Firm at 25. That’s a feat.”

“It was uncomfortable, I have to say, but I did think that it was relevant and useful,” Danes said. “Also, it’s erotic. There’s no reason to pussyfoot around that. I thought it was vital, so I stripped.”

In case you were wondering, the picture above is not a screenshot from ‘Father of the Bride: Part III’. Steve Martin has been very funny for a very long time, but Jordan Catalano he is not.
