Teasing Ricci ('Black Snake Moan'), says she got into character by stripping in front of the cast and crew of her last flick...and we'd like to encourage her to write a "how to" book for other Hollywood starlets to take notes (and random pop quizes will be optional study):
"I needed to lose any sort of self-consciousness because I feel sometimes you can see self-consciousness in a performance when somebody is naked or in a nude scene.Christina Ricci
"I really needed for that not to be there, so to help me I stayed the way I would be for the scene all the time - in order to get the crew really used to seeing me that way."
Even after filming was done she said: "I was in my bathroom about two months after the movie finished and I was brushing my teeth and I was in my underwear. I looked down and it was like, 'Oh, god, put something on.'
We here at PrettyBoring confess now that we have never "stripped down" at work.
