Jamie Lee Curtis is milking the interest in her Freakier Friday costume.
After the actress went viral on TikTok for a costume she wore as Tess Coleman in the film alongside Lindsay Lohan and subsequent promotional materials shared on the platform, she playfully chimed in.
“LOVE the fact that the LAST photograph of me as TESS,” Jamie Lee wrote in a Aug. 20 Instagram post, “taken backstage in costume from my surprise appearance at @elcapitanthtre to support #freakierfriday has gotten more attention than any other since the announcement post with @lindsaylohan that sparked the movie getting made!”
Jamie Lee added, “HAPPY TO HELP SPREAD THE JOY THAT OUR MOVIE SERVES!”
And the Oscar winner isn’t exaggerating how much attention her outfit—a low cut gray jumpsuit adorned with safety pins of various sizes—got online.
After Disney shared a promotional TikTok video of Jamie Lee wearing the look in which she encouraged fans to see Freakier Friday in theaters, many pointed out how the outfit accentuated the actress’ breasts in the comment section.
As one comment with over 70,000 likes wrote, “JAMIE LEE MILKERS.”
Meanwhile another chimed in, pushing back at the buzz, “Y’all have been sleeping on Mrs. Jamie Lee Curtis? She’s ALWAYS been a stunner.”
Of course, Jamie Lee is no stranger to being shocked by a great fashion choice herself. After all, she recently went viral for calling out pal Allison Janey at the Las Culturistas Culture Awards last month because she was stunning in a pantless look.
“You can go f–k yourself!” Jamie Lee joked during a red carpet interview, visibly stunned by her friend’s look before enveloping her in a hug adding, “You can just go f–k yourself!”
Indeed, Jamie Lee has always tried to empower women for how they look—and recently shared that she regrets getting plastic surgery at 25 for how the act contradicts her philosophy.
As she said during a May appearance on 60 Minutes, “I’ve become a really public advocate to say to women, ‘You’re gorgeous and you’re perfect the way you are.'”

A Fan of True Romance
Amid the chatter surrounding Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson’s rumored romance, Jamie Lee Curtis quickly shut down any of the Naked Gun stars’ possible detractors.
“With all due respect to pop culture, if love has found [its] way into that relationship—God bless them both—leave them the f–k alone,” the Everything Everywhere All At Once actress told VT in August 2025. “Let them like each other. Both of them have had hardship, and they’re both beautiful human beings.”
And she further took a moment to heap praise on her Last Showgirl costar Anderson.
“She’s a beautiful person,” Curtis added, “She was fantastic [in the movie], but she’s a beautiful human being.”
Calling it Quits on Hollywood
The actress—daughter to the late Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh—hasn’t held back when it comes to sharing how seeing her parents’ later careers has shaped how she views longevity in Hollywood, and why it makes her more intentional about what she takes on.
“I have been prepping to get out, so that I don’t have to suffer the same was as my family did,” Curtis opened up to The Guardian in a July 2025 interview. “I want to leave the party before I’m no longer invited. I witnessed my parents lose the very thing that gave them their fame and their life and their livelihood, when the industry rejected them at a certain age.”
And she doesn’t want to be hurt in the same way. “I watched them reach incredible success and then have it slowly erode to where it was gone,” she continued. “And that’s very painful.”
As for her decades long career, Curtis considers herself an “old lady” jokingly adding, “I’m going to die soon.”
A Champion of Matinees
She takes bedtime seriously—and that’s why she doesn’t want to go to a concert in the evening. In fact, she has a proposition for singers.
“I’m challenging musicians to do concerts during the day,” Curtis posited on Today in March. “Why are there no matinees? For instance, I love Coldplay, I would love to go see Coldplay. I would love it, but the problem is I am not going to see Coldplay if they start their show at nine and there is an opening act. I want to hear Coldplay at 1 p.m.”
As for how the Academy Award winner wants to turn this dream into a reality?
“I think if we filled a stadium of people who want to see a matinee of Coldplay,” she continued, “I think we’re going to start a trend.”
In-and-Out of the Oscars
The Freaky Friday star proved she was a true Californian by leaving film’s biggest night early to satiate her fast-food craving at the beloved West Coast joint.
“FLY IN [check emoji],” Curtis posted on Instagram March 2024 with a photo featuring her getting a meal at In-and-Out, “GET FLUFFED AND FOLDED [check emoji] PRESENT AT OSCARS [check emoji] GO TO @inandout_burger [check emoji] FLY AWAY.”
Walking Back Her Not-So Marvelous Take on Superhero Movies
After not holding back by saying a more recent phase of Marvel Cinematic Universe was “bad,” the Knives Out actress subsequently admitted she regretted her comments on the superhero movie franchise.
“My comments about Marvel were stupid and I will do better,” Curtis, who had previously shaded the Doctor Strange movies while promoting her own multiverse movie Everything Everywhere All at Once, wrote on X in August 2024.“I’ve reached out to Kevin Feige and will no longer play in that mud slinging sandbox of competition we call the internet nor will I engage in the toilet paper promotion or game play that is designed for clicks not content or conversation.”
Cosmetic Surgery Confessions
For Curtis, a negative comment from a cinematographer while filming the 1985 movie Perfect alongside John Travolta resulted in an eye-opening experience with cosmetic procedures.
“He was like, ‘Yeah I’m not shooting her today. Her eyes are baggy,” she said on 60 minutes in May. “I was 25. For him to say that was very embarrassing. So as soon as the movie finished, I ended up having some plastic surgery.”
“That’s just not what you want to do when you’re 25 or 26,” she continued, “I regretted it immediately and have sort of regretted it since.”
And it influenced the way she views cosmetic enhancements.
“I’ve become a really public advocate,” Curtis explained, “to say to women, ‘You’re gorgeous and you’re perfect the way you are,’ so,…oh yeah. It was not a good thing for me to do.”
