British GQ is seeing red on its blazing cover featuring 'Mad Men' sex symbol Christina Hendricks.
Armed with a pair of gardening shears, the flame-haired beauty smolders in a curve-hugging red dress on the cover of the magazine's September issue.
Inside, Hendricks flaunts her voluptuous figure in a pinup-style navy robe and bustier and talks about the show's sexy wardrobe, which has helped turn her from cult heroine to Esquire's Sexiest Woman Alive.
"I adore the incredibly tight clothing," Hendricks tells the magazine. "My own wardrobe's changed -- I've streamlined a little bit and definitely learned from Joan's sleekness and tailoring."
Hendricks tells GQ that she adores playing her character, Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce office manager Joan Harris (formerly Holloway).
"Joan's a dream to play -- she's not always prancing around the office. There's that side to it, which is really fun, but there's nitty-gritty."

nice!
Some of us clicked on the thread for the Hendricks pics...
Cheers!
It was a very different world then. By way of example, I remember Majel Barrett’s first outing in the (rerun to me) pilot episode of Star Trek (”The Cage”) when she played Captain Christopher Pike’s hard-nosed 2nd-in-command “Number One”. According to official Star Trek history, television audiences of 1964—male AND female—hated her guts and the ahead-of-her-time character was never reappeared. Barret returned as the appropriately feminine character “Nurse Chapel”.
I used to eat out with my girlfriend’s little sister sometimes. She made me nuts with her eating habits.
She would peel the skin off of chicken (never fried!) and cut the meat into chunks small enough to feed a kitten. It would take her an hour to finish a plate that I could casually eat in fifteen minutes.
Her favorite dish was some sort of Thai noodle thing, which I couldn’t stand. At home, she ate everything out of a microwave.
She later turned into a raving liberal. Is there any wonder why?
“So, the chauvinistic, sexual degrading, womanizing infulence of the 1960s Madison Avenue is back in vogue.”
Well, Mad Men is my favorite show (Damages second). It’s stylish, smart and witty. Makes me nostalgic for those days - in my case the 70’s - in the corporate world. I had the time of my life and, in light of subsequent days, it was an innocent time.
“in light of subsequent days, it was an innocent time.”
I meant to say subsequent decades.
One of my daughters has a boyfriend that would eat like that.
I'm no psychologist, but there is something about picky eating and poor toilet training that make liberals what they are.
I have whiplash here. Which one of you boys pissed in the other’s cereal first?
Most of just wanted to see multiple pictures of Christina.
Ah hell, none of my business. Just post some more pictures please.
Days, decades, whatever it takes.
Ask and ye shall receive. All hail the return of real women with real women's bodies!
I would kill someone to be built like her. Curvy beats herointhin every time.
Are you sure that guy liked girls? LOL
Or at the very least, just don't comment at all.
Classic hottie ping!

Ro_Thunder gets the nod for the catch.
She’s hawtter than Hawtlanter in August.
Yes, she’s curvy. But I’ve never seen a picture of her in a bikini, or with a bare waist. In all her pics, she appears to have a girdle or corset under the dress to tame her curves.
