Los Angeles, Nov 13 (IANS) Actress Anne Hathaway turned down a nudity contract before filming sex scenes for new movie ‘Love And Other Drugs’ because she didn’t want strict rules to interfere with her performance.

She has several intimate scenes with her co-star Jake Gyllenhaal in the movie and while she admits she was terrified about baring all on the big screen, she opted to waive the standard nudity agreement that was offered, which would have allowed her to dictate what can and can’t be shown.

‘I decided I didn’t want to be doing these scenes and thinking, ‘Oh, I can only turn my body 36 degrees, because we’ll be breaking contract.’ imdb.com quoted Hathaway as saying.

The actress claims that she is beginning to put aside her insecurity and embrace the way her body looks.

‘I’ve hit the point in my life where I understand that being skinny is not sustainable, and nor is it advisable, and nor is it enjoyable,’ she said.
