Robert Wuhl:
Now I'm sure that many of you dismiss Miss Spears as some exhibitionist, club-hopping bimbo. But not me. No, I got Britney's back because, as my father used to say, "Judge slowly." [a clip from "Ekstase" is shown] Behind me, this is the first nude scene in motion picture history. In the 1933 Czech film "Ekstase", twenty-year-old Hedy Lemarr shocks the world by becoming the first woman to bare her breasts on camera, thus becoming the original Girl Gone Wild. Her outrageous behavior makes her an international film star and a pop-culture icon. Who once said "Any woman can be glamorous. All she has to do is stand still and look stupid." But early in 1941, shortly after World War II begins, Hedy is out partying. Concerned about the Nazis jamming Allied radio signals, Hedy takes out a cocktail napkin and on the back of it, draws up a plan that will become known a frequency hopping. This is a way to make jamming radio signals impossible. [shows diagram of Lamarr's patented technique] This is Hedy's actual patent for frequency hopping. And this isn't a handbag or a cosmetics line she's putting her name on, right? This is impressive stuff. So who many thought was an exhibitionist, club-hopping bimbo of her time invents a revolutionary defense system that has been used in everything from the Cuban Missile Crisis to Wi-Fi to cell phones. Well, "stand still and look stupid" my ass! Which brings me back to my girl, Britney. And once again, I say judge slowly, because in the future, we may well learn that Britney went into that car with underwear on and the reason they came off may someday change history.
