Kristen Stewart enjoyed stripping

Kristen Stewart was "surprised" by how comfortable she felt stripping off for her latest movie. The 20-year-old actress - who plays a teenage runaway who becomes a stripper in new film 'Welcome to the Rileys' - wasn't scared about peeling off her clothes or walking around in raunchy outfits because she believes she has matured and was ready for the role.
She said: "I think what surprised me most is probably the fact that I was so unaware of the fact that I was walking down the street with my robe opened and fishnets and beyond caring at all. I wasn't scared. "I had known about this for a while before it got up and running. I'm really glad that it took awhile to do so, because I think I was old enough to play the part - as opposed to not ready. I think I would have shied away from too much, so it was shocking to find myself in situations like that, being completely fine with them."
Kristen had no preconceptions about lap dancers or how they should act but says shooting the movie in New Orleans really helped her get into the role as did the revealing clothes she had to wear. She added to America's OK! magazine: "I think what is cool about the costume is you think stripper. I don't think a whole lot when I think stripper, to be honest. A lot of people have certain ideas about how they must be but I didn't really have any.
But I always imagined they'd be sexy at least or something because that's sort of their job but it's on the contrary." Kristen visited a strip club for the first time to research her role, and even took pole-dancing classes - which she admits "hurt". She added: "I learned how to pole dance, although you never really see it. You do for a second; it's like in silhouette. It really hurts and you don't realise, of course, it's really going to show."
