In **The Aviator** , noted A-cup Gwen Stefani also played Harlow. This must some sort of unwritten rule in Hollywood regarding portrayals of Jean Harlow.

" ‘And guess who they’re casting as Harlow?’ he exclaimed, naming a popular actress of the sixties whom he described, with evident disgust, as '‘the titless wonder’."
