Sarah Silverman, Amanda Peet, Anna Wintour, Bon Jovi, Chace Crawford, Christian Slater, Claire Danes, Clive Owen, Dita Von Teese, Emmy Rossum, Eva Mendes, Hilary Duff, Jerry Seinfeld, Lake Bell, Mary J. Blige, Michelle Monaghan, Mischa Barton, Molly Sims, and Sarah Michelle Gellar were all in attendance at the Gala last night.
Sarah Michelle Gellar was too tired to perform a sex scene in her 2006 movie Southland Tales, because she had just feasted on turkey.
She plays a porn star in the movie, but was disappointed when she couldn’t partake in an intimate scene with full gusto, because all she wanted to do was sleep. The 30-year-old had binged on a huge Thanksgiving meal of turkey - which contains chemicals that make you lethargic - just before she was due to film the scene.
She tells Maxim magazine, “For a porn star, I didn’t get much action. I filmed a love scene on Thanksgiving, and I had eaten all this turkey and mashed potatoes and was like, ‘I seriously have to film a sex scene right now?’ “I was so tired from all the tryptophan (an amino acid in turkey that makes you sleepy) that I just wanted to sleep.”
I gotta admit, it’s really weird seeing the “Pushing Daisies” guy in a sadistic role. Seems like it doesn’t fit. Other than that - I’ll probably see this movie, I like thrillers.
