'Friends With Benefits' Stars Weren't 'Begging To Be Naked'

In case you've missed them, Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis have been involved in a few very clever promotions for their upcoming romantic comedy "Friends With Benefits." There was their mutual groping at the MTV Movie Awards in June followed by a friendly public service announcement-style video touting the merits of a friends-with-benefits arrangement. And if those efforts haven't already inspired you to see the film when it opens this weekend, perhaps the knowledge that the two attractive actors spend a lot of their screen time totally naked will increase a few ticket sales. Speaking about said nude scenes — of which there are several that feature a bare Timberlake bottom — the two stars admitted to MTV News that however comfortable they may be with their bodies in private, they weren't dying to disrobe on camera. "I wasn't begging [to be naked]," Timberlake said. "When I found out Mila was going to be naked, I was really sort of like, 'Ewww, gross,' " he joked. "But I guess if that's what it takes to make the movie, then I'll do it." "[You are] such a hard worker," Kunis said, playing along with Timberlake's joke. "You're committed." "I know. I am a hard worker," Timberlake assured us. "He genuinely believes that [my being naked] was gross," Kunis added seriously. "Shut up," Timberlake shot back playfully. "We had a lot of fun making the movie," he said sincerely. "[But] none of us were begging to be naked." Check out everything we've got on "Friends With Benefits."
