Wow!!! This could kill all the fun for those Hollyweird producers. Half of them get into producing due to the casting couch and the extracurricular sex available with those pretty young things.
Hollyweird runs on sex and lots of it. Cocaine and other drugs too.

Ever wonder why there are so many metrosexual leading men nowadays?
The casting couch is gender-neutral.

What's the rush? The movie business is only about 115 years old.

I’d hazard a guess that the ‘casting couch’ saw a 50-50 split in hetero/homo propositions.

It’s not like Helen has never been naked before a camera in her career.

Um...I like Helen Mirren’s work and all, but I think her ‘casting couch days’ are a thing of the past!
And who would want Gwyneth Paltrow? LOL!
These people. OH-SO IMPORTANT to making the Sun rise each and every day! ;)

The headline says “producers” but the article talks mainly about directors and casting agents. The producers do this a lot.
I’m sure John Travolta is thinking “Now you’re going to do something about it. A little late for me.”

Don’t forget the casting couch for the elementary school level.

Wasn’t Bill Clinton actually considering a job in Hollywood after he left the white house?

I agree, I think most stars these days are the ones who had sex with the casting agents. Both male and female.

So only the British actors’ union objects?
Harvey Weinstein and his wife are still safe?

I read a purported insider story that basically said, “If someone is a successful actor, it means they are sexually available to alot of decision makers.

Hollywood preys on child actors, too.

I saw her play Ayn Rand, but she wasn't naked in that one.

Michael Bay really hopes Hollywood will get over this.
To: ransomnote
Maybe that explains why Hollywood is so pro abortion.
To: Maceman
Helen did a lot of nude scenes back in the 70's. Just do a google image search for Helen Mirren young nude. And yes, she was hot in those days.
