The Academy Award-winning actress — mom to daughter Makena, 9, with partner Matthew Carnahan — recently appeared nude in 2012's The Sessions.

"I got the part a couple weeks before I started, so all the cookie fasting in the world was not going to [help]. So I didn't do that," she told PopSugar about preparing for the nude scenes in The Sessions. "Every time I wanted to worry about that, I just tried to prepare more for the part so I would be thinking more about that than about how naked I was."

"More than anybody, the cameraman sets the tone on a set, so it all kind of came down to him," she added. "So I talked to him — that was one way I prepared. 'Don't let me look bad,' and that was it."
