Jamie Lee Curtis was so offended by Seth MacFarlane's "We Saw Your Boobs" Oscars song that she wrote a whole blog on The Huffington Post about it.
In a post titled "And the Oscar Goes to... Hell," the 54-year-old actress writes:
I am an actress who has bared her breasts in films to satisfy the requirement of the role I was asked to do -- lucky to do, for in my case, those films were significant in my career. I didn't like doing it. I didn't ask if I could do them topless. I did what was asked of me for the part I was playing. Mostly asked by men.
I know many may snicker at the now-aging, adult, almost grandma-like woman I am today, looking back and decrying my youthful exploitation, and say it's hard for me to cry foul when my body was my stock and trade.
But, Curtis writes, that is no excuse to overshadow the prestigious film awards with a crass song about body parts.
I was offended last week. As an Academy member, as the child of former Academy members and as a woman, I expected more from the best that the movie business has to offer. The Oscars are about honoring art and artists. It is not supposed to be a cheesy vaudeville show...
What we will be talking about is Seth's lack of class and a 14-year-old boy's derogatory word for one of the most beautiful, motherly and literally nurturing parts of the female form.
