Susan Sarandon’s Feet

Click To Enlarge Feet

Like mother, like daughter the old saying goes. But that’s not always true. Take actress Susan Sarandon, for instance. A social and political activist, particularly for transgender causes, Sarandon - innovator of the wrestling hold the Sarandon Wrap - blows holes the size of Martian craters in that theory. That’s because a while back Sarandon’s daughter Eva Amurri came to our attention. Only in the foot sense, mind you, did we gaze. We cringed. And we tried to forget about the horrifying experience. Maybe it’s something to do with toenail fungus, jacked up feet and walking around bare tootsied when the toilet bowl overflows. Or possibly, like hair, Amurri was just having a bad paw day. Those things happen and we understand. Now comes Oscar-winning mom to the rescue. And for an old broad in her Sixties, Susan looks like there’s a couple of good moments left with those arches before the dirt piles on top of her pine box. As the photo would indicate, Sarandon, poised possibly to dodge a vat of manure being hurled her way for one of her progressive causes, is maybe best remembered for her lesbo turn with Catherine Deneuve in The Hunger. And proving that time pulls dirty tricks on us all, Sarandon was once considered a sex symbol. She went naked in a couple of her flicks and was voted best celebrity breasts in a Playboy magazine poll, crediting her nipples. With no one left to take the credit, Sarandon, like her turn in Bull Durham, plays a lonely ballgame. And those cricket bats supporting her knees ain’t gonna get any wolf whistles, either. But the feet, if we’re willing to overlook Medicaid and Social Security, score “6″ runs in the bottom of the ninth. Not enough to win, but at least there was an attempt to die tryin’.
