Women too busy to shave armpits?

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Some of Hollywood's most successful women share an unexpected byproduct of success -- hairy armpits.

That was one of the lighter messages brought home on Tuesday at a star-studded breakfast, hosted by the Hollywood Reporter in conjunction with the publication of its 15th annual Women In Entertainment Power 100 list.

"It's a miracle I'm here," said keynote speaker Maria Bello, star of "World Trade Center," in describing her hectic morning as a multi-tasking mom during which she finally got around to "shaving two-week old growth" under her arms.

"I still have two-week old growth," quipped fellow "World Trade Center" star Maggie Gyllenhaal, another keynote speaker who, like Bello, earned accolades for her role in the Oliver Stone-directed drama about the September 11 attacks.

The Hollywood Reporter named Amy Pascal, co-chairman of Sony Corp (NYSE:SNE - news)'s Sony Pictures Entertainment, as the most powerful woman in Hollywood, followed by Anne Sweeney, president of Walt Disney Co's Disney-ABC Television Group. Judy McGrath, chairman and CEO of Viacom Inc's MTV Networks ranked third place.

Much of the discussion involved the swelling ranks of women in Hollywood boardrooms as well as in politics and other industries.

Bello drew loud applause when she exclaimed: "I'd just like to say this: The speaker of the House is a chick!," referring to incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a California Democrat.

"World Trade Center" producer Stacey Sher recounted how she broke into the business by volunteering as a waitress at industry events. When the magazine first began publishing the list 15 years ago, it ranked only the top 50 women in Hollywood.

"Fifteen years ago, it was hard to find 50 women to fill it and now it's hard to trim it," said John Kilcullen, publisher of the Hollywood Reporter.

Academy Award winner Meryl Streep got the 2006 Sherry Lansing Leadership Award, named after the former Paramount Pictures chief credited with shattering Hollywood's glass ceiling by becoming the first woman to head production at a major studio.

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

Maggie Gyllenhaal usually looks pretty greasy and unkempt so... no surprise here that she also has hairy pits.

That being said, I kind of admire her greasiness and how she never wears a bra. :thumbs:

saying your too busy to shave your armpits is like saying your too busy to use soap -- it takes 1 minute of your time!

Why is it that people look down on woman who choose not to shave their armpits.... but many also look down on woman who choose to shave their pubic hair...

Dont make sense to me...

I don't care if someone shaves their armpits or not...or their legs...or their pubic hair...or their heads.

What I find ridiculous is announcing that you're *too busy* to shave your armpits!!!

Who cares??? :lol::lol::lol:

Besides, all that hair keeps you warmer in the winter . . . helps to insulate from the cold! :P

Actually, I have to say that I wouldn't bother to announce any of the body parts I did or did not shave . . . comes under the heading of "not anyone's business"
