While promoting the flick, Jennifer opened up about a particular scene where she appears in front of a classroom totally nude.

“There’s one particular scene in the movie where your nightmare comes true from grade school, where you’re standing naked in front of a classroom full of people. So that became a reality, but it actually wasn’t that bad,” Jennifer recalled (via ET).

“Everybody made me feel so comfortable that I probably at a certain point started making everybody else uncomfortable,” Jennifer joked. “Because I’d be like, ‘I don’t want the robe. I’m hot. I’m eating.’ Everybody’s like, ‘She needs to cover up’.”
