Halle Berry bared her breasts to overcome her nudity phobia (Go To Top)

     Washington: Oscar winner Halle Berry has revealed that she exposed her breasts in 'Swordfish', so that she could overcome her nudity fears for her role in Monster's Ball. The sexy actress has admitted, that though the idea of exposing onscreen frightened her at first, she knew she needed to shed her fears if she wanted to be comfortable in her graphic sex scene with Billy Bob Thornton which demaned her to bare her boobs. "I'm the first to admit that scene was very exploitive. There was no reason in the world for my character to show her boobs. But personally, as an artist, I needed to rid myself of the fear of nudity. I found a safe forum to deal with it. Nobody was touching me. I didn't have a love scene to feel uncomfortable about," Contactmusic quoted her as saying. "(It was) 'Just sit there, show 'em, get past my fear and move on. It's the reason the nudity didn't scare me in Monster's Ball. I thought, 'They've already seen my t*ts, they're not going to see much more than that, so hey,'" she added. But having gone topless once, Berry insists that she'll need a better reason to do so again, than she had for Swordfish. "I doubt I'd ever show my t*ts again, sitting by the pool, just for the sake of doing it. That moment has passed," said Berry.
