Hollywood actress Kristen Stewart says she was surprised by how comfortable she felt while stripping for her latest movie role in Welcome to the Rileys, in which she plays a teenage stripper.
"I think what surprised me most is probably the fact that I was so unaware of the fact that I was walking down the street with my robe opened and fishnets and beyond caring at all. I wasn't scared," contactmusic.com quoted her as saying.
"I had known about this for a while before it got up and running. I'm really glad that it took a while to do so, because I think I was old enough to play the part - as opposed to not ready. I think I would have shied away from too much, so it was shocking to find myself in situations like that, being completely fine with them," she said.
The 20-year-old revealed she visited a strip club for the first time to research her role, and even took pole-dancing classes - which she admits "hurt".
"I learned how to pole dance, although you never really see it. You do for a second; it's like in silhouette. It really hurts and you don't realise, of course, it's really going to show," she said.
