Why I'll NEVER go on film, by Blake Lively
Blake Lively has ruled out ever doing scenes.
The Gossip Girl star said she is not a fan of stripping off for acting roles and said she found nu** in movies 'distracting' to the plot.
The 24-year-old said: 'When I see nud** in movies, I am always distracted by it.
'I know that if I am watching a scene and someone has their boobs out, then that's all I'm looking at - I can't help it. I just don't think that will ever be right for me.'
Lively, who is dating Ryan Reynolds, is one of Hollywood's most sought after young actresses.
She was recently seen in the Oliver Stone thriller Savages and is known to have an enviable body.
But insists she does virtually no exercise to maintain her slim figure.
She told Style magazine: 'I am terrible; I don't do any exercise - I'm going to have to learn the hard way. I love food too much, and my family is from the South, so the food I like is not necessarily the best for you.
'There are days when I will be like, "Oh my goodness, I am not happy with the way I look because I cannot fit into any of my clothes". So I eat quinoa that week, and then I feel good.'
Lively said she realises how fickle Hollywood can be and relies on her family and close friends to keep her grounded.
The star remains grounded by surrounding herself with friends and family who are always truthful with her.
'The same people who love you to death one day will hate you to death the next, so who do you give the keys to your self-worth to?,' she said.
'You have to have those keys for yourself. And you have to surround yourself with people who are honest with you. I need honesty.
'I need good friends who can say, "I love you to death, but you look terrible in that and you need to change right now."'
