Blurred Lines' Emily Ratajkowski Makes Fast Food Look hot
Blurred Lines” dancer Emily Ratajkowski is talking (yes, again) about her role in Robin Thicke’s racy summer video. “When I first saw the video, I was like, ‘Oh, Jesus Christ, I’m so naked,’” she told GQ. “Not just naked, but so revealed. “The model turned actress said her goofy nature was really apparent in the music video.
“It was my personality. There was no glamour involved. I was just silly and playful and kind of ridiculous—a big dork. And I only let my best friends see that. Or if I’ve had a couple of cocktails.”Ratajkowski will have her next big role in the movie adaptation of the book “Gone Girl,” alongside Ben Affleck.
Emily Ratajkowski raises a finger in the air and listens to a few distant thumps of bass from across a crowded restaurant. "Is that...?" she says. "Oh, it's not." What it's not is "Blurred Lines," this summer's infectious sing-along and also the reason that 174 million sets of eyes have seen her bare-breasted, mouthing the word meow. Here, even though she's wearing actual articles of clothing on her body, you can almost hear the chorus in your head. And it's pretty easy to see why she was chosen for the dual role of "good girl" and "hottest bitch in this place." She's a sort of hybrid of the haute couture runway ideal and real-life feminine curves. Also: Her lips are ridiculous. You don't need us to tell you that.
Since appearing in the music video, Ratajkowski is going from video vixen to movie actress, after landing a role in “Gone Girl,” alongside Ben Affleck. This will not be her first acting role, however. She also appeared on Nickelodeon’s "iCarly" from 2009 to 2010.
Though "Blurred Lines" is deemed a sexist video by many, Ratajkowski disagreed, telling Esquire in July, “I really appreciate the people who watch out for that stuff, and I'm sensitive to those sort of things. On the surface level, the naked women dancing, I understand that can be perceived that way.
"But we're directed to have a sort of confidence, a sarcastic attitude about the whole situation. That eye contact and that attitude really puts us in a power situation. The director, Diane Martel, is a woman, and so is the DP. We really worked on that and tried to convey that in the video. The way we are annoying them, being playful and having a good time with our body — it's something very important for young women today to have that confidence. I think it's actually celebrating women and their bodies.”
Now, the beauty is set to play Affleck's mistress on the big screen. “Gone Girl” is about a man, Nick Dunne, who deals with the disappearance of his wife , Amy Dunne, played by Rosamund Pike, and is accused of having a role in it by his mistress, Amy.
Tyler Perry, Carrie Coon and Neil Patrick Harris are also in the film, which is expected to be released in 2015.
