I think we should rename Dame Helen Mirren, NakedHelen! In her upcoming interview with Morely Safer on 60 Minutes, she actually challenges him to conduct the interview in the nude! Now that's a woman who gets the Nakedjen seal of approval.
"I'm still doing it! Oh it gets better as you get older, Morley," laughs Mirren. "You should try it. Yes, I think we should do this interview, both of us, in the nude. You'd love it!"
"Well…I don't see the big deal, you know. I don't get it," she says of people's obsession with her "getting her kit off," which drew nicknames like "the sex queen of Stratford" or "the thinking man’s crumpet."
"It did used to get to me but I just kind of ignored it, which I am still doing to this day, Morley," Mirren says.
I can only hope that when I'm in my 60's, that I will still feel the same way and will still have fans who feel the same way about me.
Happiest NakedFriday to all of you, by the way. Spend a little time with yourselves naked today. It will do your body good.
P.S. Tomorrow, Saturday, January 6, I'm doing a protest on the beach in San Francisco. I invite you to come and join me, if you'd like. It's not a naked protest. We'll all be wearing clothes. But it is an important protest if you'd like to send a very important message to Nancy Pelosi and the new Democratic Congress.
