How To Get Movie Stars Naked
Your exclusive guide on how to make the stars strip...

This week sees the release of New Moon, in which all sorts of characters strip off for the flimsiest of reasons but, importantly, not simply gratuitous sex or shower scenes. Inspired by this, we have assembled a guide for screenwriters, directors and the merely interested showing how to get your favourite film stars to shed their kit in a plethora of possible on-screen situations...

How To Get Movie Stars Naked | Use Your Clothes As A Bandage How To Get Movie Stars Naked
Strip To... Use Your Clothes As A Bandage!

As Seen In: New Moon

Target: Taylor Lautner's T-shirt

What You'll Need: A dirt bike, a rock, a girl with a thing for vampires.

How To Do It: If you're looking to demonstrate that a character has suddenly developed abs like a cliff-face, here's one way: send your heroine careening off her dirt-bike so that she hits her head on a rock and develops a nasty cut on her forehead. Then Our Hero can rush to her aid, stripping off his T-shirt to provide the heroine with a (slightly ineffectual, it must be said) cloth to dab the wound. Of course, it could all have been avoided if he'd listened to his mother and carried a proper handkerchief.

Who Else Might Fall For It: Valeria Golino cleverly parodied the technique in Hot Shots: Part Deux. Natalie Portman ripped her own damaged clothes in Attack of the Clones too, but neglected the bandage bit.

You guys always make me laugh. The blind sculptor who can cop a feel bit was especially funny and of course Hugh Jackman. You should have incldued the countless idiot females in horror movies who just happen to be in the underwear when the big bad arrives! Read More

Jenny Agutter's strip in Logan's Runs should have been worthy of a mention in there somewhere... Gotta be the most stupidly gratuitous bit of nudity in movie history...outside of Showgirls. Read More

The body heat bit also works outside comedies. Watch "The Saint" to see Val Kilmer doing it.   On second thought, don't watch "The Saint"... Read More
