When someone is injured having sex on the job, we're tempted to ask, What kind of job are we talking about here? In this case, however, there's nothing that kinky about it. Cable kinky is all. Mary-Louise Parker told People at last night's Tony Awards that she broke a toe during a sex scene for Weeds.

"How’s that for commitment?" joked the sardonic star.

Speaking of commitment, Parker wore heels to the awards. Ouch! But Parker clearly isn't into S&M: When she fractured the phalange on the first take, the sex scene was one and done.

Sounds like she could have used some weed for pain management. Strictly medicinal, doncha know.
