Shoddy is as shoddy does

Hmmm. So Hollywood actress Anne Hathaway says she'd be willing to go topless in a movie; although she wouldn't enjoy it. Her rationale? From MSNBC: “It’s not the most fun requirement of the job, but nor is it something that I would ever not do a job because of,” the “Devil Wears Prada” star told Marie Claire. “It is what it is. Some people choose not to do it on moral grounds; I think that’s a shoddy argument.”

Er---I think she's a beautiful, talented actress, but I fear it's her argument (to be fair, her quote may have been taken out of context) that seems shoddy. Shouldn't one's morality inform one's decisions? But then, Hollywood isn't short on shoddy.
