Billie Reveals All About Nude Scenes

Actress Billie Piper has admitted she can’t bear to watch her raunchy scenes in The Secret Diary Of A Call Girl with her actor husband Laurence Fox.
Speaking to Closer Magazine, the former teen pop star said: “I don’t stop him, but we don’t watch it together – that would just be weird,”
“I wouldn’t watch it with my dad or brother, either. I have selective memory loss when it’s on!”
Billie, who plays upmarket prostitute Belle in the ITV2 show, also says she sometimes cringes at her character’s saucy antics in the latest series.
“My most embarrassing scene? Being done from behind while I was pretending to be all sorts of farmyard animals,”
“I was a chicken… and I had to bleat like a ewe. It makes me sweat just thinking about it!”
The 27-year-old added: “It was weird going home and having to sing Old MacDonald and read books about farmyard animals to my son!”
The new series of the show that’s based on the blog of real-life call girl “Belle de Jour”, also sees Billie’s character have sex with baked beans, bizarre fetish fantasies and kinky role play.
“I’m paying for the fact that I was pregnant during the last series and couldn’t film much sex,” she said.
“There’s loads in this one! Belle’s a published author now, and as she’s writing her second book she needs new material, so her adventures get more obscure.
“There’s a weird and wonderful world out there, and I’ve learnt a lot. I feel quite jaded!”
Billie says stripping for the camera doesn’t get any easier. “I still get nervous, but everyone on set handles it really well,” she says. “We all get smutty, giggle and crack inappropriate jokes, which stops it feeling too intense.”
Having given birth to her first child, Winston just five months before filming, Billie admits she was under pressure to lose weight. She says: “I was contractually obliged to get back in shape and knew I couldn’t play the part while lactating! “But I didn’t want to sacrifice my son’s health and go: ‘I know you’re only two months old, but I’m stopping feeding you and going on a seven-mile run now.’ So I breast-fed as long as I could, then decided to lose the weight quickly by going running and eating less.”
She also revealed that the third series may mark the end of Belle’s TV adventures. “I feel I’ve already worked during too much of my son’s babyhood – I think it might be time to relax with him this year,” she says. “I don’t want to be an absent figure in his life.”

Billie De Jour

Billie Piper has played prostitute Belle De Jour in Secret Diary of a Call Girl, and the lead in Kay Mellor's A Passionate Woman, so she is no stranger to steamy parts. The modern-day Moll Flanders reveals all in this candid interview:

The first time I met Billie Piper, I was left feeling that I owed her an apology. She was heavily pregnant at the time, by husband, actor Laurence Fox, we got chatting about her birth options and I was perhaps a little too candid about what scenarios she might encounter, resulting in my glancing up at one point to be met with her huge caramel eyes, wide with trepidation.
Very bad form on my part: it really isn't on to scare first-time mums-to-be. What made it worse was that Piper had been great company – bright, open, witty, with a well-developed sense of the absurd – whether talking about her recent marriage to Fox, her first one to Chris Evans, her teenage pop career, playing Rose in Doctor Who, or the furore over her role as Belle de Jour in Secret Diary of a Call Girl. In the end, the guilt got too much and I sent an apology via her publicist. In October 2008, Piper had her baby, Winston James, after a 26-hour labour, followed by an emergency Caesarean. It all sounds pretty gruelling. "When the contractions first started I laughed, because I couldn't believe how painful it was," says Piper when we meet again, at the Observer photo shoot. "But we stopped off at Starbucks on the way to the hospital for a triple shot and a muffin before it all kicked off."
She is full-on glamorous, in a slinky dress, when I first see her having her photograph taken, and afterwards Piper, 27, changes into jeans and a zipped top. Petite, hair swept back from tawny skin, she looks both chic and staggeringly young and vulnerable.
