5 actors who are ashamed of having shot sex scenes

You know when as a child you were so embarrassed to see a sex scene on TV, especially if you were in the company of your parents? We would turn away or pretend nothing happened, maybe we would get up with the excuse of going to the bathroom or drinking a glass of water. In short, a little cringe. Today, however, when I see a hot scene in a movie or in a TV series, luckily I immediately think of those who interpret it. Like: what do they feel about being naked? How do they think they are seen by people who know and follow them from home? What if the co-star doesn’t wash? In short, it doesn’t have to be easy. Between embarrassing moments and jealous partners, that’s it 5 actors who are ashamed of having filmed sex scenes:

REGÉ – JEAN PAGE

Ok, to see him act in Bridgerton no one would have imagined it. Still, the sex scenes that made us consider the Duke of Hastings among the sexiest men on the planet they put the actor who played them to a lot of shame. As well as his family members. Recently, during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Regé-Jean Page he stated that he was very embarrassed after seeing himself on TV and that he was not ready for that vision either, despite being there during the filming. In addition, it seems that mom and dad did not like to see their son’s nakedness exposed in this way: “They don’t want to be overwhelmed by my ass but they were forced to go through this because everyone seemed to be terribly happy with it all.”

JENNIFER LAWRENCE

The actress stated that to shoot sex scenes with Chris Pratt in Passengers had to resort to alcohol. On the other hand, he supported the colleague’s thesis, explaining that in the sex scenes there is actually nothing sexy or romantic, but that everything is much more embarrassing than you think. «But this is also part of our job – he explained – so what we can do is try to make the other feel at ease and reduce performance anxiety to a minimum. With Jennifer I think I succeeded ».

IAN HARDING

When he acted in the role of Ezra in Pretty Little LiarsBefore any romantic or sex scene that included kissing or otherwise with colleague Lucy Hale, the actor thoroughly brushed his teeth, gargled, and flossed several times. In addition, he avoided eating snacks, shaved his beard every day so as not to prick it, and shaved once a month to have a smoother chest. In short, for him, more than the scenes themselves (he defined them as “awkward”), it was the preparation for the take that was the real torment.

CHARLIE HUNNAM

Who saw Sons of Anarchy he knows: the sex scenes are in episode order. To the protagonist Charlie Hunnam, however, he did not like turning them. The reason? His girlfriend Morgana McNelis, with whom she has been a constant couple since 2005: “There is no one else in the world that I would like to kiss but her, so I always think about how she might feel seeing me in those attitudes with someone other than her”. What’s more, the actor suffers from germophobia, so he couldn’t live without disinfectants and antibacterials.

KIRSTEN DUNST

On the set of The Beguiled, before shooting sex scenes with Colin Farrell, the actress only had one question to ask the director Sofia Coppola: «But when does all this end?». For her, every romantic take was a real torment and she has repeatedly assured that all the experts have complied with her request: «Come on, we’re almost done. We will do everything as quickly as possible ».
