Demi Moore revealed the one request she made before agreeing to shoot her iconic “Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle” bikini scene.
The actress recalled learning about the scene three weeks before shooting the 2003 film alongside Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu on Tuesday’s episode of “The Drew Barrymore Show.”
“All I remember is begging them not to shoot my butt. I don’t know why that was my obsession,” she said.
Moore, now 62, explained she was forced to “compartmentalize” and focus on what was in front of her instead of overthinking the role.
“I had no time to think about what I looked like, which was almost better,” she said.
“No one can do in three weeks what you showed up with. So you were clearly good to go,” Barrymore, 50, gushed.
“Like there’s no magic wand that gets you to that in three weeks. I’ve done a three-week diet. I didn’t end up there,” the talk show host added.
Moore, who was 40 years old at the time, shared that she “wasn’t prepared for the focus that happened from it,” adding, “I had no idea the amplification, ironically, that was specifically tied to my age.”
The “Ghost” star revealed she was signed onto the McG-directed film after her three daughters — Rumer, 36, Tallulah, 31, and Scout Willis, 33 — gave her the push she needed.
“I had taken a break only to be with them,” she said.
“I stopped and was just with them until they finally were like, ‘You have to do this movie. We love the first one. You have to do this movie. And please, aren’t you going to ever work again?’”
Moore explained she realized it was important for her daughters to witness the “full expression of who she was” as an actress.
Moore was supported at the movie’s premiere by her ex-husband, Bruce Willis, their three daughters and her then-partner Ashton Kutcher.
The “Substance” star and Bruce, 70, were wed from 1987 to 2000.
She married Ashton Kutcher, 47, in 2005 and they divorced in 2013.
