Jamie Lee Curtis has agreed to pose topless to mark her 50th birthday.

The actress said she would bare all to convince older women that they can still be beautiful if they take care of their bodies.

Her topless pose will appear on May's cover of the magazine of the American Association of Retired Persons, the U.S. equivalent of Saga.

I’m curious about your tag name. Are you with the Tornado Aley hash house harrers by chance?

I hate that women are judged on their looks.

Jamie Lee has her head on straight. I think she’s gorgeous.

[rottndog]

To show that 50 year old women can still be sluts (especially "stars" in Hollywierd!)

Oh, heck, who was that British bimbo, 60something I think, who won an Academy Award last year and then turned around and bragged that she wasn't wearing panties to the show. Just when you think some class has arrived to buck the trend, the Hollywoodiots just sink lower.

[Sue Perkick]

LOL! Perish the thought!

[rottndog]

BTW, in keeping with the rules....

Whatever floats her boat...but she REALLY needs to grow her hair out.

Some women are like a fine wine, it seems that FR is either getting younger or I am getting older but years ago Joan Collins was the hottest babe I ever saw.

[bannie]

Growin’ old gracefully, I see...?

I thought she looked better in True Lies than she did in Trading Places. She’s got her mother’s body, but she also is her father’s daughter with that face.

That is another mother/daughter acting duo where the mother was prettier than the daughter. The other is Tipi Hedron/Melanie Griffin. Hitchcock knew how to pick women for his movies. I doubt he’d select either daughter.

Both she and Sophia Lauren are 73....

More power to them both!

I think Julie Christie looks absolutely great for age 67. The bottom one is of her just a few weeks ago.

Her dance scene with Arnold in “True Lies” is one for the record books.

[LS]

Lol. How about the dance scene from “True Lies.” Made Aaaaahhhh-nold drop his tape recorder.

I agree - I get all these junk mail from AARP (they started sending them when I was in my 30s!) and I just send back the SASE envelope empty.

And, no, I don’t like the taffeta, rough skin - that, along with the neck, can really age a woman.

[HungarianGypsy]

When I’m 50 I’ll look 30. It’s in the genes.

According to imdb.com, she has a movie that’s in post-production right now (”Beverly Hills Chihuahua”).

I started coloring my hair years ago because I have dirty blonde hair. I kept with the same color as my natural because the coloring added some highlights. About 5 years ago, when I lived in Los Angeles, I met a friend of mine in a very expensive Brentwood salon and the girl working there said she loved the color of my hair and asked where I had it done. I told her it was from a $3.00 Clairol box. Her expression was priceless. $3.00 every 2 months sure is less expensive than $150.00 some salons charge.

"The dirty secret is that “she” is really Richard Dean Anderson in drag."

Well, now that you mention it, they do have the same haircut.

Actually, she’s given up acting last I heard. She’s married to an English Lord IIRC who gave up his seat or something. Not quite sure what her title is, but she’s apparently more into being mom, than acting.

Huh? I thought that she was married to Christopher Guest, formerly of SNL, Spinal Tap, and A Mighty Wind.

I don't know if she's still acting or not.

Maybe I missed it, but when was Jamie Lee Curtis beautiful?
