Jamie Lee Curtis cheekily addresses ‘attention’ over viral ‘Freakier Friday’ outfit
Jamie Lee Curtis finally addressed the fans thirsting over her viral “Freakier Friday” outfit.
Nearly one week after the actress promoted the movie in a low-cut off-the-shoulder gray top, she joked about the ensemble getting “more attention than any” of her Instagram posts since the one with Lindsay Lohan that sparked their “Freaky Friday” sequel.
“HAPPY TO HELP SPREAD THE JOY THAT OUR MOVIE SERVES!” the Oscar winner told her followers on Wednesday.
Curtis noted that she wore the safety-pinned, belted number while “in costume” as her character, Tess Coleman, to make a “surprise appearance at @elcapitantheatre to support” the film, which was released Aug. 8.
The 66-year-old, who recently told Page Six she has never felt “more beautiful,” flashed a peace sign in the cheeky upload.
Social media users raved over Curtis’ curves earlier this week in comments ranging from being “distracted” to not having “anything appropriate to say” about the swaths of skin she let show.
Some joked that they thought the video “was AI for a second,” while one referenced Curtis’ yogurt ads by quipping, “I didn’t know Activia [yogurt] did all that.”
Many resurfaced old footage from the Golden Globe winner’s projects over the years to prove she has “always been a stunner.”
Last month, Curtis made headlines for her brutal take on Hollywood’s plastic surgery obsession.
“There’s a disfigurement of generations of predominantly women who are altering their appearances,” the “Halloween” star told The Guardian in July.
Curtis made a “statement against plastic surgery” at the time by posing in a pair of wax lips.
“I’ve been very vocal about the genocide of a generation of women by the cosmeceutical industrial complex, who’ve disfigured themselves,” the Emmy winner explained. “The wax lips really sends it home.”
The “Scream Queens” alum, notably, underwent plastic surgery in 1985 at age 25 after a cinematographer criticized her appearance in “Perfect.”
Curtis explained on “60 Minutes” in May that she had the procedure after overhearing a comment about her “baggy” eyes.
She “regretted it immediately and [has] kind of sort of regretted it since.”
When asked about Lohan, who has sparked plastic surgery speculation, in July, Curtis said she “minds [her] own business” and doesn’t “proselytize” to those who have gone under the knife.
“I don’t care,” the Emmy winner explained. “It doesn’t matter. … I would never say a word. I would never say to someone: ‘What have you done?’
“All I know is that it is a never-ending cycle,” she continued. “That, I know. Once you start, you can’t stop. But it’s not my job to give my opinion.”
Lohan, 39, has “never had any plastic surgery done ever,” her dad, Michael Lohan, insisted last year, telling us that her youthful appearance is due to “peels, fillers and Botox.”
