Filming a sex scene, especially with someone who may be a complete stranger, must be incredibly awkward! These 5 celebrities have all said they’ve laughed while filming their sex scenes in the past because it makes the situation more comfortable for everyone and it’s easier to relax. Finding it funny, these celebs have opted to just look to the humorous side and put any fears or awkward feelings aside.
Amanda couldn’t stop giggling during an awkward scene: “We were doing a scene where I was supposed to be going down on Peter Sarsgaard. We used a Popsicle, and I had my arms covering the Popsicle. It was footage that he was going to show the Deep Throat guy, to get her into the movie, to get her cast. I was laughing hysterically throughout. I couldn’t stop laughing.”
Chris Evans
Chris says he tries to make people laugh to make filming more comfortable: “It depends on the person. I’ve done bedroom scenes where the other person isn’t comfortable and it’s tricky. I try to make people laugh. You have to laugh or you’ll cry. But yeah, some of those scenes have been awkward. But then again, some have been way too much fun.”
Mila laughed the whole time while filming a sex scene with Justin Timberlake: “Wait till you see the gag reel. It was all laughter. He’s very funny. I think he knew I was going to be a little uncomfortable because he would be seeing all my bits and pieces so his way of making me comfortable was just to make me laugh… It was just very goofy.”
Monica Bellucci
Monica had to film a sex scene with Matt Damon without getting to know him and she found it easiest to laugh through it: “I just found him so funny. It actually helped through. When you have loves scenes with someone that you never met before, it’s difficult. You have to create a nice situation, a good sensibility. With him it was easy, he just made me laugh.”
Penelope and her co-star Daniel Day-Lewis found their scene together so strange that they laughed it off: “It’s always a very strange thing. I mean, we had the best director and I was in the best possible company, but it’s always something strange… We laughed a lot together, because you have to bring humour to those situations.”
