Terry Bradshaw gets buck nekkid in his new movie

From The Associated Press


Bradshaw, 57, bares all in "Failure to Launch," in which he co-stars with Oscar-winner Kathy Bates as the parents of a 35-year-old man (Matthew McConaughey) still living at home. They're reduced to hiring a woman (Sarah Jessica Parker) to seduce their son and induce him to leave.

"Not that I got a lot to show off here. But I really thought, and I think I'm right," Bradshaw says, "you seeing my butt is a shocker.

I got a family I got to answer to. I got kids ... my older parents and my preachers and everybody," he says, then busts out laughing: "I'm going to have to answer for this."

But back to the bare butt for a moment: In his playing days, the ex-quarterback got undressed innumerable times in locker rooms with plenty of people around, so he didn't fret too much before walking to the movie set.

"Once I dropped my boxer shorts and exposed myself to the entire crew, it was kind of refreshing in a way," he says, chortling again. "I was like: I can BREATHE.

"It was fun to do. I wish I was about 90 pounds lighter, but it was fun to do."

The Bradshaw you see in the movie tipped the scales at 244. He's down to 228 and hopes to get to his playing weight of 215.

He packed on the pounds because of back problems that he says stem more from running than from injuries during his National Football League career.

Is this his "playing weight" of 215?? Yikes! I mean, purrrrrrrrrrrr, Terry

So...who wants to go see this movie with me? Any takers?

Also does anybody find it somewhat ironic that SJP, formerly known as Carrie Bradshaw, is in a movie with Terry Bradshaw? I bet they talked about the fictional character/real name weirdness when they filmed the movie. The name Carrie Bradshaw has always thrown me off.

Hmm...yeah...doesn't even look that creepy to me.

If Terry can sing as well as Jake Hess's rug is fine, then we are all in for a special treat.

My Dad saved his life. Well, sort of. About 15 years ago my dad was riding a waverunner in Grand Caymen. He noticed a parisailer had chute malfunction and he sped out there to help the guy out. Turns out the guy was Terry Bradshaw himself. Terry mad my dad a promise that day. I would like to know how to get a hold of Terry to discuss the fulfillment of that promise. It would be a cool surprise for my dad all these years later.

Terry, I saw you on the Tonight Show last week and as usual, you had me laughing and loving your great sense of humor. You look fantastic after your weight loss.Check me out on facebook. I was one of the original Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders and I love football and adventure and fun. Sure would enjoy meeting you some day. I'm not a fashion model or a movie star, but I love to laugh, have fun and travel. Your desire to try marriage again in 2012 intrigued me. How long have you been single and what do you miss about marriage? I think having someone to share things with on a daily basis and snuggling up to someone in front of the TV and in bed at night are what I miss the most.
