10 Actors Who Needed Doubles For Ridiculous Reasons

3. Dakota Johnson Had Butt Tattoos - Fifty Shades Of Grey

Given how much of a fuss was made about the amount of "graphic sex" in the Fifty Shades franchise, you'd be surprised how much of the rutting was actually carried out by body doubles.

And while one could perhaps understand that lead actress Dakota Johnson wanted to preserve some of her modesty during the more in-your-face sex scenes, that's actually not the reason she had a butt double throughout the erotic thriller trilogy.

Because Johnson had tattoos on her bottom, and these were deemed not to suit the nature of her mousy, demure protagonist Anastasia Steele, the call was made to have a non-tattooed butt double perform any scenes that glimpsed the character's bum.

The film's cinematographer, Seamus McGarvey, said, "We did have a butt double for Dakota...I had the pleasure of casting a non-tattooed bottom."

As for Johnson herself, she called her tattoos "annoying" due to the sheer amount of times she has to have them covered up for roles.
