If topless photos of celebrities will make women more aware of the dangers of breast cancer, January Jones is on board with posting them. The Mad Men alum took off her top on Instagram this week in the name of public health. Read on for details.

January Jones is showing her support — and a little more — for a good cause.
On Wednesday, the actress shared a topless selfie on Instagram encouraging her followers to get mammograms.
“It’s breast cancer awareness month gals and guys!” the star, 40, wrote, alongside the mirror selfie. “This is a friendly reminder to get a mammogram!”
To support Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Jones posed wearing nothing but a gold heart necklace and added the phrase “Love Your Mellons [sic]” in orange across her breasts, which she covered with her arm.
Because it is also the month of Halloween, she used a scarecrow filter on her face, which includes some light makeup, a nose patch, and a straw hat on her head.
At the end of the post, Jones informed her California-based followers that they could join her in being proactive through a free initiative held by designer Tamara Mellon in the coming days.
“@tamaramellon is offering FREE mammograms regardless of insurance status next wk in a mobile RV in Los Angeles!” she wrote. “Oct 8, 9, 10th! Sign up at link in bio! #LoveYourMellons”
Jones is not the only famous face to show support for Breast Cancer Awareness as of late.
Last week, Serena Williams posed topless in a music video for a cover she recorded of the Divinyl’s 1990 hit “I Touch Myself.” The tennis pro, 37, used her post to “remind women to self-check regularly” and acknowledged that the experience put her “out of my comfort zone.”
