Glenn Close Wants Everyone to Know She’s Horny

I feel like the worst thing about the internet is that someone decided we should have the ability to let people comment on porn. Have you ever read the comments when a porn star or amatuer porn star posts to social media? It’s a desert of pure thirst. And I get it, we all want to have sex with Bailey Jay, but I doubt posting “I’d love to suck those tits” under a picture she posted on Twitter is going to make that happen. I’m guilty of this myself; you might think that because I talk about thirsty I am for Kristen Stewart for comedic effect it’s not true, but it is, it is very true.

I had hoped, however, that our most cherished actors and actresses would at least not tell us how horny they are in interviews, but Glenn Close has decided we all need to know her vagina is still open for business in an interview in The Guardian.

Right now, she believes she is in her prime. “I feel as free and as creative, as sexual and as eager, as I ever have. And it’s ironic because I’m thinking: ‘How much time do I have left now?’ There are so many things I’m interested in doing. It’s one of those ironies, I suppose, that we sometimes start feeling comfortable in our own skin only late in our lives, but hopefully with enough time to benefit from it. I’m so glad to do what I do because even though I’m not a method actor and I don’t use my life in my acting, my work is still a progression. So what comes after this I’m excited to see. Right now, I’m just enjoying feeling …” She searches for the word, then giggles to herself. “Chuffed. Isn’t that what you all say? I’m feeling very chuffed.”

Close got on the topic of sex because she was talking about the sex scene she filmed in her new film, The Wife.

How refreshing to find her sexuality undimmed in The Wife. The opening sex scene between her and Pryce was the first thing they shot. “We arrived on set in our jammies,” she chuckles. “We were both thinking the same thing: ‘We’re pros, we’ve been doing this a long time. Let’s just get down to it.’” It feels revolutionary to see two actors in their 70s having drowsy, vocal, pleasurably filthy sex together. “I know,” she whoops.

If this is what people mean when they say “political correctness has gone too far” then I’m onboard. I don’t find the site of old people having sex to be “refreshing.” I mean, good for them, but I would like to sign up to not see that. Also, PornHub is full of old people sex if you need to feel “refreshed.”
