Maggie Gyllenhaal's Racy Ad Campaign Makes Little Brother Jake Uncomfortable
Yet another actress is sounding off on how urgently they needed to slim down after giving birth, and unlike sourpuss Jessica Alba or wine-guzzling Gwyneth Paltrow, this is a chick we actually like. Beginning the rounds of press for her role as Katie Holmes’ Replacement in the highly anticipated, potentially Oscar-adorned Dark Knight, Maggie Gyllenhaal tells USA Today how she speedily dropped all her baby weight before stripping down for some racy Agent Provocateur lingerie ads:
“’I found myself, six months after having a baby, in my underwear, getting my picture taken.’ She says she was ‘a good 20 pounds heavier’ after Ramona's birth in 2006 — and the lingerie helped her feel sexy again...’It made me feel so good.’”
Though Maggie admittedly looks hotter than she ever has in the photos (a closer look below), her manly bareback rider brother Jake didn’t “feel so good” after seeing the 12-foot version at an airport recently...
As Us says, "She didn't realize 'how scrutinized' she'd be for showing so much skin. 'My brother called me and said, "I'm in Heathrow, and there's a 12-foot picture of you upside down in a negligee." People are really rough on you when you do things like that.'" Not only is this admission understandable, it's also very media savvy. After all, can you imagine how much shit we all would've given Jake if he admitted that his big sis looked "hot" in lingerie?
