She's More Sexy than Old. ...Continue »
I'm proud to say that I follow Blythe Danner's career since 1980. She is also known as Gwyneth Paltrow's mother. Both Gwyneth and Blythe Danner are very sexy. And Blythe Danner, who is approaching old age is very sexy and if you ask me, I think of her as more sexy than old. I wrote a few letters to Blythe. I hope she gets them. I also love her name. It's original, just like her acting. I'm very much in love with her, despite her age. I'm looking forward to seeing her on television again. Beleive me, she is still hot.
