10 Recent Movie Scenes Actors Hated Performing
2. Salma Hayek Isn't A Mud Bath Fan - House Of Gucci
It's safe to say that Salma Hayek has found herself in her fair share of uncomfortable on-screen scenarios over the course of three compelling decades within the filmmaking industry. Most notably, the actor with a crippling fear of snakes was forced to perform a now-iconic dance number with a serpent in Robert Rodriguez's From Dusk till Dawn. But if you think her days of being "mortified" during the making of a scene were over, you're sadly mistaken.
Speaking on The Late Late Show with James Corden, Hayek would admit that whilst shooting Ridley Scott's latest dramatic picture, House of Gucci, she felt particularly awkward when asked to dive into a mud bath with Lady Gaga. Not your standard day at the office, admittedly.
Recalling what she described as the "most challenging scene I’ve ever done," Hayek would say:
"...I’m trying to (move the mud away from) my huge butt to make some weight (shift). And then it starts moving me around and then there’s the boobs going (back and forth), you know. It’s a very dramatic scene and she’s trying to stay focused and… I’m mortified. It was horrific."
You just never know what curveball is heading your way in this business...
