Gillian Anderson Is Now Anti-Bra: ‘I Don’t Care If My Breasts Reach My Belly Button’
Gillian Anderson has declared that she’s now freeing herself from the cumbersome, red-mark-inducing confinement of bras.
The star of The Crown opened up about allowing her breasts to breathe during a Q&A with fans on Instagram Live earlier this week.

“I’m so lazy. And I don’t wear a bra anymore. I can’t wear a bra. I can’t, no. I can’t,” the Sex Education actor said when asked about her go-to lockdown outfit during the pandemic.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t care if … my breasts reach my belly button. I’m not wearing a bra anymore. It’s just too fucking uncomfortable,” she said.
As for her clothing of choice, Gillian said she would wear “comfortable” black trackies and a black hoodie “every day” if she could.
“[It’s] probably the same as my go-to out-of-lockdown outfit,” the actor added. “I’m so lazy.”
And although many fans on Twitter celebrated Gillian’s aversion to underwire, some complained that they’d never have that luxury.
I am a 44 DDD senior. If I tried to walk around without a bra I’d have two black eyes.

God, she’s so lucky she can do that. I can’t get away with it with these bazoombas. 😂🍈

Two things I never leave the house without, my wedding ring & a bra. My boobs are to big to go without if I don’t want people staring at my chest when I’m talking to them. At home I don’t wear them often.

Their responses are fair, but if Gillian is going to advocate for a bra-free lifestyle thanks to the comfiness it provided her during lockdown, could she also champion sweatpants and coffee-stained T-shirts?

Richard Madeley’s Latest Good Morning Britain Blunder Is Just So Richard Madeley
With various restrictions continuing to ease around the country, a lot of us are still adapting to a new way of doing things – and apparently that includes Richard Madeley.
After months of interviewing Good Morning Britain guests over Zoom and video-link, it seems Richard is still getting to grips with having actual people in the studio with him IRL, as evidenced during his latest live broadcast.
Welcoming Albie Amankona of the organisation Conservatives Against Racism For Equality to one of GMB’s debates on Thursday morning, the presenter declared: “Let’s talk to a Tory!”
Richard then began introducing the discussion, all while staring straight down the camera lens, despite Albie being on the same desk as him, slightly to the right.
“We’ll talk to you about the big bubbling under story of the week, the racism story, in a couple of minutes, but as a Conservative, what do you make of this?” he asked.
“Do you see this as the wagging finger of the nanny state or a perfectly reasonable…?”
Trailing off, Richard seemingly clocked co-host Susanna Reid staring over his shoulder to the right of the studio, as he then said: “Oh! You’re there! Sorry, I thought you were on [the screen]. I’m talking to you like you’re in Winchester or something!”

Evidently curious as to whether he was onto something with his Winchester prediction, Richard then asked: “Where are you from, actually?”
“I’m from Chiswick,” Albie explained. “So not far away from there.”
Putting a big Richard Madeley cherry on top of the Richard Madeley cake, the host then added: “I sort of saw you in Chiswick in my mind’s eye.”
Obviously, the exchange didn’t go unnoticed by GMB viewers, many of whom took the opportunity to once again compare Richard to Steve Coogan’s comedy creation Alan Partridge:
