Shakira
Turned Down Nude Scene
1/9/08
Shakira turned down the chance to star in new movie Love in the Time
Cholera, because the role involved stripping naked.
The singer has been nominated for a Golden Globe for her soundtrack for
the Mike Newell film - and she reveals Gabriel Garcia Marquez, who wrote
the original book, wanted her to act in it as well.
But the 30-year-old was scared a nude scene would anger her parents.
Shakira says, "There was nudity involved, so I said no. My parents
wouldn't like it at all. So I said thank you, but no thank you."
