Shailene Woodley Defends On-Screen Nudity: ‘When I Have Sex, I’m Naked’

Shailene Woodley gets naked in her movie White Bird in a Blizzard, but she has her reasons.
The drama is set in 1988 and is about a teenage girl’s life that is thrown into chaos when her mother disappears.

The Divergent star tells New York Magazine that she got some flak for her nude scenes in the film, but she thinks it was needed. “Everyone was freaked out because I’m nude, but in real life, when I have sex, I’m naked,” the 22-year-old actress said. “I don’t have a bra on, and I don’t usually have panties on. So let’s make a real movie! Let’s bring truth to the scene! I didn’t want to be exploited, but this girl–like most girls when they first have sex–doesn’t know what she’s doing. I wanted their first kiss to be sloppy, teenagerish making out. When you’re younger, you think you know what to do, but you really don’t.”
Woodley also chimed in about being compared to The Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence. “As women, we are constantly told that we need to compare ourselves to a girl in school, to our co-workers, to the images in a magazine. How is the world going to advance if we’re always comparing ourselves to others? I admire Jennifer Lawrence, but she’s everyone’s favorite person to compare me to.”
She added, “Is it because we both have short hair and a vagina? I see us as separate individuals. And that’s important. As women, our insecurities are based on all these comparisons. And that creates distress.”
Excerpts from NYM article:

Back at my house for dinner, Woodley and Larson had moved on to dessert. “These are delicious,” said Woodley, mid-brownie. Since it was nearing the end of the evening, I asked Woodley, now that she was 22, if she was considering playing non-high-school parts. Even in the racy White Bird in a Blizzard (out late 2014), directed by Gregg Araki, Woodley may have multiple nude scenes, but her ­character is still in high school.
“I saw Fault last night,” Woodley answered, “and it was nostalgic in a way. That will be the last teenage movie that I’m going to do. Last year, when I made Fault, I could still empathize with adolescence. But I’m not a young adult anymore—I’m a woman. But I’ve never played my age before and that’s my next goal. It’s scary.”
Larson, who was tasting some sour-cherry cake, offered words of encouragement. She asked about the sex scenes in White Bird: “Was it awkward? Romantic scenes can be so awkward.” Woodley, who had moved on to a ginger cookie, shook her head. “It was so much fun,” she said. “Everyone was freaked out because I’m nude, but in real life, when I have sex, I’m naked. I don’t have a bra on, and I don’t usually have panties on. So let’s make a real movie! Let’s bring truth to the scene! I didn’t want to be exploited, but this girl—like most girls when they first have sex—doesn’t know what she’s doing.I wanted their first kiss to be sloppy, teenagerish making out. When you’re younger, you think you know what to do, but you really don’t.”
Since both women were child actors, I asked if their first kiss was on-camera. Woodley said no, but Larson couldn’t recall. “Isn’t that terrible!” she said.“I can’t remember if my first kiss was in real life or on a TV show!”
Suddenly, Woodley gasped, and I thought she might be choking. “Oh my God—I almost forgot,” she exclaimed. “You got the part in Room!” Larson looked happy but a little shy. Apparently, in the past month, Woodley and Larson were the last two actresses up for the same role, the lead in an adaptation of a 2010 best-selling novel about a woman and her son who have been held captive for years in a small room.
“I’m so excited,” Larson said.
