There's no point in worrying how you will look
But the 27 year-old actress has revealed she wasn’t worried about going nude on film for her role as porn star Linda Lovelace in the biopic of her life.
‘There's no point in worrying [about how you will look],’ she told reporters at screening of her new film in L.A. today.
Amanda, who appears topless in the movie, insisted she didn’t make any big changes to her diet or fitness routine before filming.
‘I'm really active, I try to run every day and eat well, but that's normal for me,’ she said.
‘I love running and being outdoors. I am trying to eat more vegetables, but it's really difficult,’ she added. ‘I overeat in the middle of the day. And I'm a sugar addict. It never changes ... I try!’
The body-confident actress said her decision not to diet was also down to her not wanting to promote unhealthy body types.
‘[Linda Lovelace] was really thin, but I don't have the same body type as her at all and if I stopped eating I would look gross. I don't want to promote unhealthy body types. So, yeah, I [didn't change my fitness or diet routine] at all,’ she said.
In fact, Amanda found stripping off in front of the cameras more ‘liberating’ than nerve-wracking.
Speaking to a UK newspaper at the weekend, the ‘Lovelace’ star revealed: ‘It's funny, because I felt liberated when I was doing it.’
She continued: ‘I'm sure people that are very protective of me wouldn't feel very comfortable with that. But it's like, what's the big deal.’
