High-grossing Academy Award winnerJamie Lee Curtis, 66, has responded to a social media buzz surrounding a provocative photo following a Freakier Friday viewing in Los Angeles.
She put in a surprise appearance at the Disney El Capitan theater less than a week ago, wearing a stylish suit.
Disney Studios then posted a string of snippets from the movie with provocative footage of the actress in the same attire, which drew a slew of cheeky comments.
Curtis has since reposted a still from the footage to her account, suggesting that she is enjoying the attention.
What Jamie Lee Curtis had to say did not register with many audience members
“A special message from Jamie Lee Curtis,” Disney’s Instagram account captioned the footage on August 17.
In said message, Curtis’s character, Tess, touts Freakier Friday as having the same atmosphere as its first instalment more than two decades ago.
“Now, 22 years later, you’re going to join a big group of people who are finding something really sweet at the end of the summer to remind them what it is to be alive,” Curtis said.
“I’m just really privileged that I get to take you on the ride,” she said—while her blazer rode low and exposed a generous portion of her upper half.
Fans in the comments claimed they were distracted
The sighting stirred up followers and triggered an ADHD epidemic in the comment section.
“Forgive me, I am a bit distracted,” wrote one person. “Will those be in the movie too?” echoed another, referring to Curtis’s bust.
A significant part of the 30-second video and the idea it was trying to convey was wasted on many of the fans, and one person said as much when they replied:
“[I] couldn’t even tell you what the film was called.”
“Yeah what are we talking about again? I lost my train of thought,” wrote another.
