In my, er, formulative years, Jane March was the go-to naked actress. ---

Several male actors went naked so often on the series OZ that it was “there’s his balls again”. Christopher Meloni, Lee Tergeson being the two I think were naked most (though Luke Perry going full frontal was perhaps the most surprising). ---

Christopher Meloni, Lee Tergeson being the two I think were naked most (though Luke Perry going full frontal was perhaps the most surprising). OZ was good for that. Very VERY good for that. > [@](#): > > Thank GOD. I second that motion, **Guinastasia**. I would also add **Viggo Mortenson** to that list. The man has never had a problem with nudity and going full frontal (when it’s integral to the plot, of course! 😉 ). ---

How about Mathilda May ? Although it is **one** film that up her stats “cough” Lifeforce"cough", she did appear naked in other movies. ---

Amanda Donahoe must surely rate at least an honourable mention … first time I saw her in a movie where she kept her kit on (I think it was _The Madness of King George_), I was muttering to myself, “What, did someone in the costume department find a staple gun?” ---

What about somebody like Misty Mundae or Brinke Stevens? They’re not porno actresses but they do softcore T&A movies. ---

> [@ivan\_astikov](#): > > That Glenda Jackson used to be a right shameless hussy! I briefly met Glenda Jackson a good few years ago (late 90s, probably) when I was a lowly drone at the Office of the Rail Regulator and she was a Transport Minister; all I could think of was “But, I’ve seen your minge!” [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-mainstream-actors-actresses-have-probably-spent-the-most-time-on-camera-naked/498768.md?page=1)
