* Oscar Winner Creator/MarionCotillard parodies the concept in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krME5DvZFRQ&list=WLC81F11DB0FB38ED6 this fake commercial.]]

* ''Series/{{Castle}}'' has a moment of this in a season 2 episode where the BodyOfTheWeek was reported while coroner Lainie was out clubbing. Turns out she's [[HiddenBuxom surprisingly buxom when not wearing scrubs]]. And she says it without missing a beat, making it all the funnier. Poor Castle has so much trouble not staring that he simply looks ''away''.

* ''Fanfic/BabyBoom'': When the boys point out that their classmates' boobs are getting bigger, Adrien can't stop looking. Repeatedly. When Ladybug tells him off, he resolutely refuses to look anywhere but her face, to her amusement.

* Subverted and {{Lampshaded}} in ''ComicBook/IdentityCrisis'', in which ComicBook/GreenArrow notes Slipknot's eyes aren't on ComicBook/WonderWoman's rack, but on her hip -- where her Magic Lasso is located.

* In ''ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}}'' #8, Penny says this to Clint after she takes off her coat to reveal the stripper outfit she had on underneath.

* The second issue of ''[[ComicBook/TomStrong Tom Strong's Terrific Tales]]'' had Jonni Future, the [[InTheBlood niece]] with big boobs related to ScienceHero Johnny Future catches Johnny's [[BeastMan male felinoid]] sidekick Jermaal staring at her chest and tell him "My face is up here". To be fair, Johnny's own outfit was ridiculously beefcake and he didn't expect to be succeeded by a girl. He even had a CleavageWindow to show off his muscular, hairy chest!

%%* This might as well be ComicBook/PowerGirl's catchphrase, [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pgbust_9217.jpg as seen here.]] Of course, it might be a little {{hypocritical|Humor}} when you're wearing a CleavageWindow.

* In the ''ComicBook/TomStrong'' story introducing Jonni Future, the [[InTheBlood niece]] with big boobs related to ScienceHero Johnny Future says this when she meets Johnny's [[BeastMan male felinoid]] sidekick. To be fair, Johnny's own outfit was ridiculously beefcake and he didn't expect to be succeeded by a girl. He even had a CleavageWindow to show off his muscular, hairy chest!

* ''WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow'': In "[[Recap/TheLooneyTunesShowS1E24TheShelf The Shelf]]", Daffy (who doesn't wear clothes anyway) says this to Tina after he hands the towel he was wearing to Bugs. Later in the episode, Speedy says to Lola (holding his sombrero in front of himself) after Lola claims she has an X-ray eye.

-->'''Sayaka''': Have you grown?
-->'''Touko''': Where are you looking when you ask that?

* Parodied by an Israeli stand-up comedian once.

--> 'The scars are lower down,' Lavender told him; she sounded amused rather than angry.

* Because of Creator/AmyAdams wearing so many costumes with a NavelDeepNeckline on the set of ''Film/AmericanHustle'', this was inevitable. She describes the male co-stars as being "incredibly polite about it", but that Jennifer Lawrence was the one who kept staring -- not helped by Amy having a habit of slouching when the camera wasn't on her. So she drew a smiley face on the area "so at least it would look friendly".
* Creator/RoseMcGowan shares a story of a ''{{Series/Charmed|1998}}'' producer who would constantly stare at her chest. One day she said to him "You've seen my breasts for five years. Are they not boring yet?"

* ''Film/FasterPussycatKillKill''. The gasoline station attendant stares directly at Varla's BoobsOfSteel when he states he wants to see America. She quips, "You won't find it down there, Columbus."

* ''Series/StargateUniverse'': Lt. [[BoobsOfSteel James]] does this to [=McKay=] at one point. In a previous episode, she implies she's done it before.

* ''Film/{{Robocop}}'' has a gender-inverted version. Officer Anne Lewis sneaks up on a male criminal while he's relieving himself. He puts his hands up, but then casually nods towards his crotch and asks her if he should "zip this up" first. She doesn't fall for the obvious ruse at first but, unfortunately, she can't resist glancing down, and once she does, he catches her off-guard and disarms her.

An almost AlwaysFemale StockPhrase, especially if the woman [[BuxomBeautyStandard has large breasts]], has an outfit that emphasizes them or is obviously VaporWear. Of course, if the woman purposefully dressed provocatively, she wants people to look, just not the person she is talking to. It is used to {{lampshade|Hanging}} the MaleGaze, though occasionally a well-endowed man will utter it as well for laughs.

* This might as well be ComicBook/PowerGirl's CatchPhrase, [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pgbust_9217.jpg as seen here.]] Of course, it might be a little {{hypocritical|Humor}} when you're wearing a CleavageWindow.
* J.J. Sachs from the ''ComicBook/SachsAndViolens'' comic book (who is a lingerie model and softcore porn actress) has a T-shirt with that phrase printed on it.

* [[http://images.ucomics.com/comics/db/2010/db100213.gif This]] ''ComicStrip/{{Doonesbury}}'' comic with "the angry chick".
* PlayedWith in the Norwegian comic strip ''M'': [[http://www.start.no/m/?m=20090426 here]] and [[http://www.start.no/m/?m=20090502 here.]] With a guy.
* [[http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/4126/nemi060920cw9.gif This]] ''ComicStrip/{{Nemi}}'' strip has the girl experiment a bit on it.

* ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'': Inverted in one issue set during the ''ComicBook/CivilWar'' event. While in hiding, MJ decides to go out shopping for supplies. When Peter asks how she intends to do this without being recognized since she is a famous model and actress, MJ simply loosens her top to show off her cleavage, the idea being that no one will be looking at her face in that state.

* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11589440/1/HP-Halloween HP Halloween]]'' Padma Patil lets her more outgoing twin pick a costume and ends up wearing a [[Franchise/StarWars Princess Leia]] slave girl outfit.

* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4520186/1/The-marriage-contract The Marriage Contract]]'':

* ''WesternAnimation/OKKOLetsBeHeroes'': Inverted in "You're Everybody's Sidekick"; Red Action catches K.O. staring at her bad haircut, and snaps "Eyes down here!"

* ''Series/BabylonFive''. An InvokedTrope with [[IntrepidReporter Miss Chambers]] in "[[Recap/BabylonFiveTheLostTales01 The Lost Tales]]" who wears a camera pinned to her blouse, right next to a CleavageWindow to make sure her interviewees look into it.

[-[[caption-width-right:270:Ma'am! We are '''trying''' to read the speech bubble!]]-]

* Spoofed in an advertisement which featured an attractive sports reporter interviewing an athlete who kept leering down at her body, causing her to say, "[[SarcasmMode And my breasts have one more question for you...]]"

* In the ''ComicBook/TomStrong'' story introducing Jonni Future, the [[InTheBlood niece]] with GagBoobs related to ScienceHero Johnny Future says this when she meets Johnny's [[BeastMan male felinoid]] sidekick. To be fair, Johnny's own outfit was ridiculously beefcake and he didn't expect to be succeeded by a girl. He even had a CleavageWindow to show off his muscular, hairy chest!

* Quite common ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse'' (though not often worded as such), due to the prevalence of the MostCommonSuperpower, especially by Phase, who, being an exception to the ThirdLawOfGenderBending, is extremely displeased with the male attention he gets. Conversely, many of the characters ''like'' the fact that they draw the MaleGaze, which is probably at least in part due to the fact that most of them are teenagers -- and many of the most notable cases were either significantly less attractive before, or else were UsefulNotes/{{Transgender}} and had the good fortune to have the Exemplar power to [[GenderBender transform themselves]] to their true gender. Even those who are happy with their new-found beauty find it less than wonderful, though at least one has enough of a sense of humor about it to call herself "[[GagBoobs Attributes]]".

** One of the scenes cut from "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS14E4LargeMarge Large Marge]]" (shown in Creator/{{FOX}} promos/commercials, but not in the episode) has Bart and Lisa run into Homer's and Marge's bedroom at night. Marge (who in the episode gets by mistake GagBoobs) is in her robe and Bart stares at her cleavage. Marge frantically points to her face and tells Bart to "Just focus on Mommy's face", to which Bart replies, "I'm trying, Mom."

* [[MsFanservice Leone]] from ''Manga/AkameGaKill'' meets [[TheHero Tatsumi]] when he is on the ground, and [[DistractedByTheSexy his eyes instantly go]] to [[BuxomBeautyStandardher huge breasts]]. Leone is quick to tell Tatsumi to stop staring.

** Rory is told off twice after staring a bit too long at a naked statue (the Venus de Milo) and then at [[spoiler:older]] Amy.
