The Untold Truth Behind Hollywood's Steamiest Scenes

Julia Roberts, Pretty Woman

Before filming her love scenes with Richard Gere, Roberts broke out in nervous hives. “I had never done this kind of stuff before, and I was really nervous," said the actress. "I'd get hives. They'd say, ‘kiss,’ and I'd get a hive...but the funny thing is that we’d become such a family. This particular crew, we became so close to one another that by the time a scene like this came up—everyone knows the way that I felt and my kind of value ideas about it—everybody was more nervous than I was."
