Jennifer Lawrence recalls ‘humiliating’ nude dance scene with Robert Pattinson in new film
Why Hollywood actress was asked to dance naked ahead of movie role
- Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson star in the new black comedy-drama Die My Love, directed by Lynne Ramsay.
- Lawrence revealed on The Graham Norton Show that Ramsay challenged them to take interpretive dance lessons for their roles.
- The actors found the situation humiliating, which escalated when Ramsay asked them to perform the dance naked on their first day of filming.
