7 Famous People Who Regretted Appearing Naked In Their Movies And TV Shows

1. Mary-Louise Parker said she wished she hadn't filmed a fully nude scene for her series Weeds, and at the time, even fought with the director over it. “I didn’t think I needed to be naked,” she said. “I fought with the director about it, and now I am bitter. I knew it was going to be on the internet: ‘Mary-Louise shows off her big nipples.’ I wish I hadn’t done that. I was goaded into it.”

2. Helen Mirren has said that she always hated filming nude scenes, but did them because she didn't want to seem "uptight." "I’ve always had a problem doing nudity. I hated it! I hated the fact that I hated it, however. It’s never a comfortable thing," she said. "It’s always mortifying."

She added, "But I didn’t want to be uptight, and I also always told myself, ‘It’s okay, because you work in the theater, so you’re not going to get stuck with it.’ But of course, I have gotten stuck with it, in a way!"

3. Natalie Portman opened up saying that she doesn't necessarily regret filming nude, but she hated how the footage was misused and ended up on porn sites. "I don't really have regrets. It's more that I don't like misappropriation of stuff, like when you create something as part of a story and then a piece of it ends up on a porn site," she said. "It's meant to be a dramatic scene and part of a story. That really makes me angry. It's inevitable, and I should know what happens but..."

4. Amanda Seyfried has mostly chosen to avoid filming nude after she filmed naked for one of her earlier films. “Being 19, walking around without my underwear on — like, are you kidding me? How did I let that happen?" she said. “Oh, I know why: I was 19, and I didn’t want to upset anybody, and I wanted to keep my job. That’s why.” She even said that she wishes she could've come up in an era when intimacy coordinators were required on set.

5. While filming Basic Instinct, Sharon Stone actually had no idea how much nudity would be shown onscreen during her interrogation scene. "When we did it, it was going to be an innuendo, and the director said, 'We're seeing the white of your underwear, I need you to take them off.' And I'm like, 'I don't want you to see anything, and he's like, 'No, no, you're not going to.' So I gave him the underwear, put them in the pocket of his shirt, and he said, 'Now watch on the monitor...' In those days...it's not like now where everything is high definition, and when I looked at the monitor, you really couldn't see anything," she explained. "So when I saw it in the theatre, with a bunch of other people, I was, like, [in shock]."

6. Kate Winslet said that she "wished [she] hadn't shown so much flesh" in Titanic, but said she felt like she had "so much to prove" as a young actor at the time.

Personal Thoughts: While these actresses regret appearing naked for a movie or TV show, they can't deny that nude scenes helped their careers a lot. A lot of these A-list actors forget what their careers were like before they did nude scenes and what they were like after they did a scene.

Believe it or not, millions of people search for celebrity nudes every day, and so many people find out the names of the actors they haven't heard of before, which increases their popularity.
