Tragically, women in the film industry sometimes resort to the same numbing strategies as women in the porn industry, like the use of drugs and alcohol. Kiera Knightley said that she downed “a couple of shots of vodka – definitely -- beforehand.” Jennifer Lawrence said, “I got really, really drunk. But then that led to more anxiety.” Salma Hayek confessed, “I had to take a tranquilizer, which eventually stopped the crying but made the vomiting worse.”
Most of us assume that actresses sign up for on-screen sex and nudity with eyes wide open but, in reality, they often have no idea what they will be pressured to do on set. It is not uncommon for directors and producers to ambush young, inexperienced actresses with nude and sex scenes that were not in the contract.
The sex scene in Desperado that so traumatized Salma Hayek wasn’t even written into the script. According to Hayek, “It was demanded by the studio when they saw the chemistry” (on set between Hayek and Banderas). In the movie Frida, Harvey Weinstein, the convicted sexual abuser whose victims spearheaded the #MeToo movement, insisted that Hayek again film a nude sex scene that she had not consented to in advance: “I felt an immense pressure to deliver…
my mind understood that I had to do it, but my body wouldn’t stop crying and convulsing.”
Emilia Clarke recalled her excitement when offered her breakout role as Queen Daenerys Targaryen in Game of Thrones, only to learn later of the show’s explicit sex and nudity: “Oh, there’s the catch.” She reports that she found the experiences “terrifying” and between nude scenes would hide in the bathroom to cry.

Greases about any skid
My heart goes out to these people that really felt pressured to do this.
No one should have do to this under duress.
“Salma Hayek has been doing nude in films since she was a teen.nothing new for her. What skill does she think she has that has made her popular?
Nothing special but a great body.”
You mean her personality isn’t what attracted that french $$$Billionaire husband????
LOL!! Thanks for sharing!!
He tricked me!
FRIDA (2002)...Salma Hayek was not too shy in that film...
TWILIGHT(1998)...Paul Newman plays a private investigator...He searches for a young lady who ran away from her wealthy parents...He finds her in Mexico...He goes into her room...She was topless...Reese Witherspoon played that young lady...
That happened at the beginning of the movie...
In RED SPARROW, Jennifer Lawrence plays a Russian spy who is supposed to seduce a CIA agent...During training, her character had to show that she could do the job...
Maria Schneider, have not heard any news about her since Last Tango
Traci Lords made a career doing something similar about the same age.
For those that say “They didn’t have to do it”: many times, sex scenes weren’t in the scripts they read ,and signed up to do. This is the sleazy Male movie makers deliberately pulling fast ones on them. Odds are, the films are too far into production, so the actress quitting the film over it means they would have to start all over ,and they probably don’t have the budget( They probably guilt the actresses with that, one of many tactics they use to fool women into doing the scenes ).
Is this some sly comment about SINGLES bars?
She TALKS in some of these movies??!!??
for without them we'd NEVER get laid!
ribbet
Whoa, whoa, WHOA!
Haven’t Males been SEDUCING Females since day one - or two at least.
Women think differently about things.
They may have felt they had no choice. And feeling is reality. Or they regretted it post production.
The early Church viewed all actors as deviant, since their whole profession is lying. So I am very hesitant to say much one way or another when things like this come out.
This may be just another act.
Sick and sad. Just another reason to #BoycottHollywood.
PING!
Wasn’t it Winston Churchill that asked some gal to go to bed with him?
“Why, I never... you are such a rude man!”
“Well - what if I gave you a million pounds?”
“Oh, well, in that case....”
“Okay - how about 50?”
“WHAT!? Do you think I’m a whore!!??”
“Oh - we’ve already established that, now I’m just negotiating the price.”
