Actress Gwyneth Paltrow does not enjoy stripping down for film roles and finds it embarrassing too.

The 41-year-old actress, who donned a skimpy black lingerie for a bedroom scene in the movie 'Thanks For Sharing' earlier this year, said she found the experience embarrassing because she is much more conservative in real life, reported Contactmusic.

"Doing the lingerie striptease, I'm not sure exactly how you would classify that, but it was very embarrassing. I was not comfortable at all, but, you know, it was a good challenge for me to put myself in a situation that I would never be in in my own life.
 

"I'm not an exhibitionist like that. And it was a challenge. I'm this other woman and I'm really going to go for it. And it was fine," she said.

The Oscar-winning actress also praised her co-star, Mark Ruffalo, for helping her to stay calm during filming.

"Mark is so lovely. He made it very easy.
