Susan Sarandon exchanges barbs with Piers Morgan over bra-gate
Nobody pokes fun at Susan Sarandon... especially when it comes to cleavage-shaming.
The "Thelma & Louise" star, 69, has been taking tons of heat after she showed her bra at the SAG Awards on Saturday and the latest pundit to take aim at her revealing look is Piers Morgan.
The British talk show host kicked off his rant about Sarandon's "bra-gate" when he tweeted a photo of her award show look with the caption, "Would Susan Sarandon wear this to a funeral? No. It was thus horribly inappropriate for an In Memoriam tribute."

Sarandon, who was on tap that evening to pay tribute to David Bowie, gave the audience a bit of show with her black, mesh bra and white blazer, but she wasn't going to take his boob bashing sitting down. She quipped back on Thursday, "Today's #TBT is dedicated to @piersmorgan" alongside a photo of her in a white bra.

Piers couldn't help himself and tweeted back the following messages:
That's very disrespectful to nude male statues...😉> RT @SusanSarandon

Piers sharing a photo of himself nearly nude seems to show that while he and Sarandon have been slinging mud, it all seems to be in jest. But only time will tell where this Twitter war goes.
One thing is for sure -- Piers wasn't the only big name shocked by the look. Kate Winslet was in awe of Sarandon's incredible decolletage the night of the event.
