How did openly gay and newly married Ellen DeGeneres get Jonny Lee Miller to strip off pieces of clothing and show off his sexy tattoos? She paid him. Actually, she donated $1,000 to a breast cancer charity for every tattoo Jonny flashed on her show Monday.

Miller showed off six tattoos on his wrists, arms, stomach and left shoulder before covering up.
The reluctant star told DeGeneres, “The rest you don’t wanna see.”

Ellen ended up shelling out $7,000 to get the star of Eli Stone to show some skin on television. I can’t wait until the video becomes available later this week. Jonny has lost some of sex appeal to me over the recent years. His new role on Eli Stone, while thought provoking and warm and fuzzy feeling..has none of the old “Hackers” or “Trainspotting” edge or cool. Maybe his skin flashing on Ellen will help me get past that dorky new lawyer hair cut his is rockin’.
