Christina Hendricks reduces ANOTHER presenter to a gibbering wreck with bath story



As sexy secretary Joan Holloway on Mad Men, Christina Hendricks' curvy figure has driven many men to distraction.

But it appears even when the actress is covered up, she is still able to reduce men to a quivering wreck.

Los Angeles news anchor Brian McFayden found himself lost for words when the redhead made a throwaway comment about the bath.

Flustered: Brian McFayden tries to get his words out as he interviews Christina Hendricks on Los Angeles breakfast show KTLA News

The Tennessee-born beauty, 35, was appearing on breakfast show KTLA to promote the new season of Mad Men, which started in the U.S. last weekend.

Starting the interview, McFayden brought up Hendricks' recent Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series.

As the nomination is her first ever Emmy nod, McFayden asked her to relive the moment she learned she was up for an award at the September ceremony.

She said: 'I had to be at work really, really early that morning and I was running my bath. I had everything timed out to get every last minute of sleep because it was 5.30 in the morning.'

She went on to explain how her publicist phoned her to inform her she had received a nomination and how 'pleasantly surprised' she was.

As McFayden's female co-anchors took over the interview, the 33-year-old remained suspiciously quiet and when it finally came for him to speak, he found himself struggling to get the words out.



After one of his co-hosts mentioned the male and female response to Hendricks' famous curves, MacFayden said: 'I was just gonna say that... I wasn't gonna be like, "Oh, I'm hitting on you," but you've got an amazing body.'

After she accused him of flirting with the previous guest, he continued: 'I'm saying you're a beautiful woman and I would like... the bath... the way you made... I mean, I'm stumbling on my words... what I'm trying to say, is you were drawing a bath, you're making a bath for yourself and I was just thinking... wow, that's just awesome.'

Hendricks left him further embarrassed when she said: 'That was two conversations ago, but thank you for remembering.'

When one of his female co-hosts jumped in and asked her if she felt a lot of pressure being a sex symbol, he interjected: 'That was what I was trying to say.'

Last week, Hendricks's presence on another TV show got a female presenter all flustered.

Alexandra Wentworth, who was a guest host on The View (the U.S. version of Loose Women), sidled up next to married Hendricks and told her she was her 'girl crush'.
