Did you see this news clip?
"Shirley Jones, who played the wholesome mom on "The Partridge Family" may be ready for a big, bold step. Ms. Jones, who was so wholesome on "The Partridge Family," might pose nude for Playboy at the age of 75, if her husband/manager Marty Ingels has his way."
"She's still drop-dead gorgeous, and at the age of 75, a natural beauty," Ingels told Page Six. "I'm her husband, and I think it would be sensational. Mature women are relevant."
Well, I saw it and here is my plea to Shirley:
Please don't do it! You're still gorgeous and amazing but I have no need to know if your boobies are "Point[ing] in the direction of Alberquerque."
You are the mother of Keith Partridge for god's sake! What would Rubin Kincade say? How will Lori and Danny feel? And does anyone remember what the heck the two little kids names were?!!
Do you really want young men to be ogling your photos and fondling themselves while singing "I Think I Love You?"
I applaud your age defiant look and all the things you have accomplished. Mature women are relevant!!! They are relevant for their wisdom, experience, inner beauty and yes, even outer beauty...but please just let us live on with our visual of you in the velvet suit with the high neck ruffled white shirt and a tambourine. Naked is not one of the ways I need to think of you, Florence Henderson or Marion Ross. You were the Mom icons of my day and I choose to remember you that way forever.
So for me and the rest of your fans, keep your clothes on Shirl.
One last thought...if you go au natural....I am thinking posing across the hood of the family bus would be the way to go.
Do you want to see Shirley Partridge naked?
