Mary-Louise Parker is topless, pissed

A director forces you to get topless one time -- one time -- and you hold a grudge. I swear, actresses can be so uptight sometimes. From the New York Post:

Mary-Louise Parker is still sulking over her nude scene from last season's "Weeds" finale. She claims that she was "goaded" into doing a scene involving a lingering shot of her naked breasts while she was in a bathtub.

"I didn't think I needed to be naked, and I fought with the director about it, and now I'm bitter," the star of the Showtime series says in the June issue of More magazine. "I knew it was going to be on the Internet: 'Mary-Louise shows off her big nipples.' I wish I hadn't done that. I was goaded into it."

The show's co-executive producer, Roberto Benabib, fired back by saying that the scene was used to illustrate Nancy's vulnerability and that "there was a nonchalance to the nudity that informed the scene."

I don't know who this Benabib guy is, but he obviously deserves some sort of medal. Frankly, if he has the ability to talk a hot girl into taking off her clothes on camera, he should be doing more important work for the betterment of society -- like negotiating a peace settlement in the Middle East or lecturing to high school cheerleaders about the impracticality of underwear.
