Okay. Actress Raquel Welch’s black-satin bustier tripped the metal detector alarms at O’Hare the other day, and as a result, she had to undergo a pat-down search.

The bustier, it seems, was lined with little strips of metal.

In case you were wondering, the TSA officer who administered the pat-down was female and the Chicago Sun-Times reports that Ms. Welch reacted with good humor and patience.

“It was hilarious,” Welch’s publicist, Julie Nathanson, said today. “Every alarm in the hemisphere went off.” – Chicago Sun-Times, 3-9-10

The actress was in Chicago for an appearance on Oprah Winfrey’s show, where she publicized her new book titled, “Raquel: Beyond the Cleavage.” Okay.
