Michelle Pfeiffer The Latest Actress To Turn Cougar

By Josh Tyler: 2008-02-11 02:42:43
Michelle Pfeiffer The Latest Actress To Turn Cougar Cougars are all the rage in the media now, and Hollywood is planning a whole slew of films about older women dating younger men. I liked them better when they were called MILFs, but whatever you want to call them everyone has convinced themselves that young men would love nothing better than to be dated by surgically enhanced older ladies with an out of control libido. It’s not true, but I guess the world figures Ashton Kutcher for more of a trendsetter than he actually is. I don’t care how great Punk’d was, frat boys just aren’t turned on by menopause and possible mustache.

Regardless of reality, this is a notion that’s about to be blitzed heavily in your entertainment. It’s a fast growing genre, and we report on at least one movie a week which involves the sexual awakening of a young buck by some wrinkled old crone. On the positive side, it’s giving actresses over forty a chance at decent roles, on the negative… well it’s gross.

It’s even gross when the woman involved is Michelle Pfeiffer, who stopped being sexy some time around 1999, though her body doesn’t seem to have caught on. Michelle may soon star in a new movie called Cheri, which according to Variety is adapted from a French book by a French author. That makes sense, since as Americans we know that the French are all decadent, gross, and horny; and nothing says gross and horny quite like a Cougar. Stephen Frears will direct and Christopher Hampton wrote the script, so if Michelle stars it'll turn into a Dangerous Minds reunion. I know how much everyone has been waiting for that.

Cheri casts Pfeiffer in the well-worn role of a past her prime sexual educator. Set in 1920s Paris, the young son of a wealthy courtesan gets sexed up by one of his mother’s middle aged friends (Pfeiffer). When after six years in her bed he’s forced to give her up to marry someone less saggy, he keeps thinking about her until he finds himself retreating to an all Pfeiffer, all the time fantasy world. This could also be the next Batman movie couldn’t it? Meow?

    Michelle Pfeiffer stopped being sexy in 1999!!!!

    I think that is the most untrue sentence I have ever heard. Perhaps the writer needs his eyes tested! He obviously has not seen her two hit movies this year - Stardust and Hairspray. Michelle is still very sexy - and is aging with grace.

    Many movies are made with decrepid flabby older men and nubile young twenty-something actresses in romantic roles. Good on Michelle for challenging this unfair Hollywood standard.

    Show me a man who finds Michelle Pfeiffer unsexy and I will show you a eunich!

  1. JoshT Says:

    Then I'm a eunuch. At least I don't have to have sex with Michelle Pfeiffer, whose beauty is now more of a special effect than a reality.

    And those movies with flabby old men rolling all over nubile twenty-somethings are also gross. That's just not the topic of this.

    "...Michelle Pfeiffer, who stopped being sexy some time around 1999,..."

    I beg to differ with you on this point; what are you, 12? Ms. Pfeiffer is hotter then many 20 year-olds, Britney and Paris come to mind. Sex appeal is more then just fame and/or money.

    In spite of the fact that she is turning 50 soon, she is hotter and sexier then most of young Hollywood. Granted, I am 44, but if you think Michelle is no longer sexy you must be dating the hotest chick on the planet... or you are gay. I am just saying...

  1. JoshT Says:

    Wow, that's spectacularly unfair Ambrosius. Just because you're attracted to old women doesn't make me 12. Some guys do have a thing for Grandmas. Different strokes for different folks.

    Seriously though, she's in your age group so that makes sense.

  1. Ambrosius Amadeus Says:

    Josh, you are a good guy. I appoligize for the 12-year-old comment and the gay reference. You are a streight shooter and a good man. However, I will always disagree with Michelle's status as a sex Goddess.

  1. b Says:

    Frears, Hampton and Pfeiffer didn't do Dangerous Minds together - you are thinking of Dangerous Liaisons.
