Actresses to go topless in a movie

There are plenty of actors who refuse nude scenes in Hollywood and still become massively successful. Some A-List stars have had anti-nudity clauses in their contracts since long before they hit it big, and everything turned out alright for them all the time. Some actors change their minds one way or the other throughout long careers, others never budge, and even more still are sex symbols that attained their status with little more than the art of the tease. Take it off, keep it on, who cares?

Sex scenes are a staple in Hollywood movies and TV shows. Whether the scene is there to enhance a love story, to show a couple's dynamic, or for comedic purposes, many actors are used to them. But there are some celebrities in the industry who refuse to go nude. Some go as far as adding clauses in their contracts that guarantee no nudity will be asked of them. While some of these actors and actresses cite personal reasons, others say they simply don't want their family members — their children especially — to see them in that type of situation.

When tackling their next career move, even A-list celebrities have a lot to consider in regards to what makes the most sense for their professional trajectory. This could mean taking on a role outside of their comfort zone, choosing to "zig" when film audiences expect them to "zag," and, yes, sometimes deciding whether or not to do a movie that requires them to film in nothing but their birthday suit. Baring it all for the big screen may not seem like a major deal today, when so many folks are living what used to be considered private moments across social media for the world to see, but not everyone is so comfortable getting naked for public consumption. Factor in the idea that a nude scene will be projected onto an enormous movie screen where every inch of one's body can be critiqued, and, well, it's enough to make any actor say, "Thanks, but no thanks.

The amount of nudity in television and film is astronomically higher than ever before. Now, naked scenes can be viewed as empowering, poignant, and even necessary to storytelling for these films and TV shows. Female celebrities in film and TV are the first to be taken advantage of when it comes to getting naked for the camera. Whether the scene is necessary or not, women in the industry are expected to oblige and strip their clothes whenever asked of them. Some female celebs have voiced stark opposition to filming these kinds of scenes, even refusing to consider the option.
