So, what do you do when you have a hit TV show that been off the air for more than a year, and no one cares about it anymore? You start up your PR department, and drop a bunch of fake news stories and events. Now no one cares about Christina Hendricks, and they haven't for a while now. Two years ago, she was the woman with the large rack and red hair and curves that made it cool to be "full figured." Then, "Mad Men" got delayed because of contract negotiations for more than a year, which is pretty ridiculous, considering that 1. there are only 12 episodes a year, and 2. there are only 12 episodes a year. So since then, the show hasn't been on the mind of a lot of people. But with the return of "Mad Men" this month, how, oh how, do we get the show back in the minds of people? Stir up fake promotional poster controversies? Put Jon Hamm on SNL in a cameo role? Yeah, those are good ideas, but we need something else... think, man, think! (SNAP) I've got it? Let's leak nude pics of the redhead with the bazoongas!!! Brilliant! TMZ reports:
Busy day in the world of naked photo leaks ... just hours after Olivia Munn's allegedly naked body hit the web, a set of pics has surfaced online showing what appears to be a topless Christina Hendricks ... but Hendricks' rep insists, the breasts aren't hers.
Christina's rep tells TMZ, the "Mad Men" star's phone WAS indeed hacked recently ... and multiple self-shots were stolen -- including several showing a busty Hendricks barely dressed, without make-up, presumably at home.
But the rep insists, the one topless picture -- purportedly showing the actress' bare ample bosom -- is NOT Christina. It's an impostor.
Christina's rep tells TMZ, she doesn't know who hacked her phone -- but the proper authorities have been notified and an investigation is underway.
Now, here the thing. Christina Hendricks has been partially nude in more than a few things, so this really isn't a big deal. And I'm not saying this story is fake (completely), but this story dropping three weeks before the return of "Mad Men" is enough to make the AMC press department * in their pants like the Lonely Island. I'm betting if this story had been about her missing dog, it wouldn't have gotten nearly as much press. Just sayin'.
