Brooke Shields is weighing in on John Mulaney’s latest photo shoot.
The model and actress, 59, took a moment to shout out the comedian for recreating her iconic Calvin Klein jeans ad. Mulaney, 42, returned to Saturday Night Live as host for the Saturday, Nov. 2 episode and in one of the promo photos, struck the same pose as Shields’ history-making 1980 campaign.
Mimicking Shields, Mulaney wore a red button-down shirt, dark denim jeans and black boots as he kicked one foot into the air and rested his palms on the floor behind him.
In an Instagram post shared on Sunday, Nov. 3, Shields placed the images side by side. “I see no difference…” she joked in the caption. “I guess they can be your Calvins too, @johnmulaney @nbcsnl @calvinklein.”
Fans in the comment section were quick to throw in their own jokes. “John didn’t point his toe – minus three points on style,” one user wrote.
“Reverse bridge tricep hold plus kicks! Renaming those the Brooke [Shields] kicks!” said another.
Others reminisced on the memorable ad. “Classic image!!” said one commenter, while another chimed in, “I have this picture of you on my HS yearbook!”

When the campaign was released, the image drew criticism from those who felt it was sexualizing Shields, who was 15 at the time. In addition to the pose, in one of the commercials from the campaign, Shields recited the now-infamous line, “You want to know what comes between me and my Calvins? Nothing.”
In a 2021 video for Vogue, the star called the controversy “ridiculous.”

“I was away when they all came out, and then started hearing, ‘Oh, the commercials have been banned here, and Canada won’t play them.’ And paparazzi and people screaming at me and screaming at my mother, ‘How could you?’ It just struck me as so ridiculous, the whole thing,” she recalled.
Shields explained, “They take the one commercial, which is a rhetorical question. I was naive, I didn’t think anything of it. I didn’t think it had to do with underwear, I didn’t think it was sexual in nature. I would say it about my sister, ‘Nobody can come between me and my sister.'”
