Nudity loves company.
Brooke Shields unveiled that she stripped down in solidarity with co-star Benjamin Bratt on the set of their new Netflix motion picture “Mother of the Bride.” On Friday’s episode of “The Perspective,” the actress spelled out that she went generally au normal to ease and comfort her co-star Bratt whose wardrobe for a person scene consisted only of a “modesty sock.”
Shields, 58 relayed, “They have these matters known as modesty socks, which, for a girl, it is a modesty triangle and they tape it to you, just where the camera’s likely to go. For the bad dude, they don’t tape — they just have a minor sheath.”
Shields then used her arms to mimic the act of putting the sock on the penis.
Co-host Sara Haines laughed at the suggestive gesture, recommending, “Let’s maybe not use our palms, ladies.”
Meanwhile, the modesty sock piqued Ana Navarro’s carnal curiosity, “I want to know all about the socks. Do the socks occur in distinctive dimensions?”
Shields felt “empathy” for Bratt in his penis sheath, noting that “he was vulnerable,” which encouraged her to satisfy him in the middle, or the facet boob as it had been.
“They had to reverse and do my aspect, and I was like, ‘God, I feel like this is so unfair,’” claimed Shields. “As a surprise to him, I taped my boobs with individuals sticky-tape items, and I turned around and dropped my dress just so he didn’t feel like he was the only a single.”
Shields’s compassion for Bratt’s bare vulnerability is understandable provided the actress’s extensive, complex background with nude scenes.

A 12 months afterwards, although shooting a sex scene with co-star Martin Hewitt for 1980’s “Endless Enjoy,” Shields experienced on-set abuse at the fingers of the film’s director Franco Zeffirelli who was unhappy with her facial expressions
“Zeffirelli retained grabbing my toe and twisting it so I experienced a appear of, I guess, ecstasy,” she explained.
“He was hurting me.” Shields added: “I seriously shut down soon after that.”
Shields, who earlier unveiled she was a virgin until she was 22, took a sabbatical from performing to go to Princeton College. She shares two daughters, Rowan, 20 and Grier, 18 with partner Chris Henchy.
In “Mother of the Bride,” Shields, who also manufactured the film, stars as Lana, a girl traveling to Thailand to attend her daughter Emma’s (performed by Miranda Cosgrove) wedding.
