Paul Rudd tells Playboy he shouldn't be allowed to take his clothes off for movies:
"I've been naked in a lot of my movies. There's something inherently funny about the naked male body, particularly mine…Ryan Reynolds, sure, it makes sense why he'd strip down. But not me. I shouldn't be allowed to….I'm a big fan of movie nudity. A male ass shot is the cheapest and best laugh ever. But it's mortifying to do. When I showed my butt in The 40-Year-Old Virgin, all I could think was, 'This is going to be up on all those big screens.' I was very self-conscious about doing it. There's a scene in Our Idiot Brother where I'm naked and getting painted from the side, and because of the angle of the shot, our soundman — who was a guest soundman, by the way, and not even our regular guy — had an unfortunate view. He was holding up the boom mike and standing right in front of me. My legs were spread, and he was pretty much staring at my hairy taint."
