Mad Fug

When I first saw this pic of Mad Men‘s Maggie Siff, I admit that I wondered if she were actually in costume:

But then I realized that her character, Rachel, is way too elegant to ever wear what is essentially a shiny orange satin cupcake with a brooch in her hair and matching shiny orange shoes. I wonder if she had some kind of bet with the Mad Men costumers. Like, she bet that she could go a week without showing off her very unladylike parlor trick of sticking her entire fist in her mouth, and they took that bet — I may be drawing from life here, but in my case, I bet I could go THE REST OF MY LIFE and I’m still winning, and, yes, I am aware that I only win this bet upon my death, but my estate is really counting on that ten bucks — but she couldn’t hold out late one night on set after many faux martinis and clove cigarettes and now look at her. I feel you, Maggie. I really do.
