Throwback Thursday: The Evolution of Brooke Shields
When we think Brooke “Jailbait” Shields in The Blue Lagoon, we think cold showers…in prison…with angry bikers.
Brooke Shields has been knocking boots for a while now, but she regrets that her sexual history doesn’t date back further. The actress, model and author, who turns 44 this weekend, recently told Health magazine that she waited until she was 22 to lose her virginity and wishes that she’d bumped uglies earlier because it would have made her more comfortable with her body. A lot of guys wish they could help her with that retroactively. It’s hard to believe Shields had the chastity shield up so long, considering that in the late ’70s and early ’80s, when she was still jailbait, she was famous for taking her clothes off in model shoots and film roles like Pretty Baby and The Blue Lagoon that bordered on child pornography.
Well, better late than never, Complex says. And besides, she was always sexually active in the imaginations of young men and dirty old perverts. As we throw it back to Brooke Shields, we just ask that the young men who’ve become dirty old perverts and the dirty old perverts who’ve become dirtier older perverts keep it in their pants…
