Consideration for her children is behind actress Reece Witherspoon’s refusal to strip for a movie.
The ‘Rendition’ actress – who has two children, nine-year-old daughter Ava and son Deacon, six, with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe – doesn’t think it would be appropriate to appear nude because of the effect it could have on her kids.
She said about nude roles: “I had my first baby when I was 23, so for me, no. I’ve always been choosing roles knowing that I have a daughter and I have a responsibility to her and to the world to be representing women of strength.
“These are the women I know in life. I think it’s a natural extension of parenthood for you to feel like you’re responsible for the worlds you create, whether they be silly or serious. I think you are responsible for the art you put in the world.”
While I recognise her name, I’m not sure if I’ve seen any of her films so can’t comment on whether or not she’s been a good role model in them. But I approve of her aim to represent women of strength and her decision to keep her clothes on for her children’s sake.

She was the airhead bimbo in Legally Blonde.
Very pretty but hardly a role model for prudish values.
Good on her , I say.
She has made her millions and can afford to do what she wants.

The fact that she is prepared to have moral values and stick with them means more than her millions ever will.

Brilliant. If only more women would stand up to sleazy directors, photographers etc and not let money seduce them into abasing themselves. Film industry is so hypocritical.Male actors always seem to keep their kit on…
