Bill Murray didn't mind wearing Speedo
LOS ANGELES - Bill Murray's choice of swimwear in his new movie leaves little to the imagination. But the star of "The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou" says he wasn't embarrassed to be seen in a tiny bathing suit.

"Being in a Speedo with other men in Speedos is, you know, is like you're on a swimming team," he told reporters recently, according to AP Radio. "It's the other men that are not in Speedos that are the problem because they're kind of going like, 'Can you get a load of the guy in the Speedo?' "

Wes Anderson's gleeful takeoff on undersea adventure movies stars Murray as the Jacques-Yves Cousteau-like explorer of the film's title.

The 54-year-old actor said he didn't see his character as being physically vain.

"I like to say I made the acting choice to have a little bit of a belly. I could've gotten really in shape, but I didn't think that Steve Zissou would be a guy who'd be like completely buff," he said. "I actually had to get a little bit out of shape."

1. Well, if Bill can do it, why doesn't KLEEB!!
In fact, we need some DU men to stand up with Kleeb and post their speedo pics so Kleeb will feel more comfortable!!

2. This is what I admire about men.
A balding, middle-aged man with a spare tire can look in the mirror and think "Hey, I look pretty good." Why can't women do that?
