Susan Sarandon is trying to shut down Piers Morgan’s criticism of her cleavage displayed at the SAG Awards with more cleavage.
“#Today’s #TBT is dedicated to @piersmorgan,” the actress tweeted, along with a “Rocky Horror Picture Show” still, in which she’s wearing a white silky bra.
On Wednesday, Morgan took to Twitter to tweet out a picture of Sarandon’s SAG Awards outfit where she wore a black bra and a white blazer.
“Would Susan Sarandon wear this to a funeral? No. It was thus horribly inappropriate for an In Memoriam tribute,” he said.
After the hashtag #cleavagegate started trending and cleavage pictures were sent to Morgan, the TV personality was bombarded with accusations of ageism, to which Morgan defended himself by pointing out that he never mentioned Sarandon’s age in his tweet.
“Oddest thing about #cleavagegate is the charge of ‘ageism’. Never mentioned @SusanSarandon‘s age & think she looks fantastic,” he wrote.
After Sarandon fired back at Morgan, he once again took to Twitter to drive home his claim: “Not one cleavage photo I’ve been sent was taken at a funeral or a memorial service. Which kind of proves my point… #cleavagegate.”
