Sarah Jessica Parker may have made millions starring
on a show that featured oodles of skin, but she tells the latest issue of
Glamour that she prefers duds with decorum, which means her new low-priced
fashion line, Bitten, will feature jeans that are cut high enough to keep one's
coin slot hidden. "... There's not going to be any inappropriate midriff
showing, regardless of your age. I really don't care for it," the former "Sex and the City" star says of
the "super-low-rise" trend. "I feel like, as a culture, we have seen enough
damage done by it. It's provocative in a way that I just don't feel comfortable
with." The actress, who managed to keep her own naughty bits covered on the
long-running HBO series, adds that she's "very distressed by the sensationalism"
of popular culture, and while she doesn't call out any particular starlet
(cough*Britney*cough), she makes it clear she doesn't condone any
risqué business. "And look how celebrities are acting these days," she grouses
to the mag. "People are getting attention for doing nothing, for behaving
poorly, for abusing themselves in public and being abused, exploiting
themselves." Says Sarah, "I find it vulgar and I find it awful."
In other decline of civilization news, Bruce Willis seems to live in fear
that the starlet-obsessed tabloids will call forth the Brazilian Waxers of the
Apocalypse. "Anything goes, to the point when if it's O.K. for young pop stars
or film stars to show photos of their naked vaginas in a magazine, then it's
over, man," the shiny-pated "Die Hard" star tells Vanity Fair. "It's the [expletive] Fall of
Rome."
Meanwhile, Hayden Panettiere, a close pal of Bruce's 18-year-old
daughter Rumer, seems eager to avoid being lumped in with her problem-plagued
peer group. In a sit-down with USA Today, the "Heroes" cutie-pie decries the
spate of rehab check-ins as "like a publicity stunt," and insists there's no way
she'll become the next party girl. Her secret? Hayden explains she "stays
grounded" by following the sage advice offered by her small screen biological
dad, Adrian Pasdar: "Always wear my undershorts, never go
nude or buzz my head. Unless it's for an Oscar."
Debra Messing believes the smaller the cup size, the
bigger the comedy. In a panel discussion at the Tribeca Film Festival on Sunday,
the actress revealed how she fought to ditch the bustline-boosting "chicken
cutlets" she was told to wear on "Will & Grace."
"After the show was picked up, at the first fitting, I said, 'I don't want to
wear these.' I actually like the idea that she's completely flat-chested, and I
think there's comedy in that," she told the audience (via the New York Daily
News). "We shot three episodes, and then I was called to my executive producer's
office. They sat me down and said, 'We got a call from the president of NBC, and
they said, 'What happened to her boobs?'" Messing, determined to stay au
naturel, shot back, "F*** 'em." Her less-than-overflowing décolletage ended up
providing fodder for many a storyline of the now-defunct series, including one
in which Grace's cleavage-enhancing water bra sprung a leak (and yes, we're
totally embarrassed that we know that).
