Gershon<\/a> told Fox. “It wasn’t like I had to rebel against my family. I remember asking him about it, thinking he was going to say, ‘No daughter of mine is going to do that!’ And he said, ‘It’s your body. If you’re comfortable with it, I’m comfortable with it.'”<\/p>\nShe continued: “When I sat and thought about it, I just thought, ‘I don’t really want to do this. I wasn’t comfortable with it. It seemed silly to me.’ Not that I had anything against nudity \u2014 I grew up on European films \u2014 but only if it makes sense for the character and the story. But when it just seems silly, I don’t know. It just felt like it was something that wasn’t for me.”<\/p>\n
The scene did not end up making it into the 1981 film, and Gershon made her onscreen debut the same year with a small role in “Beatlemania: The Movie.” She went on to appear in a string of movies through the mid-’80s and ’90s, propelling her rise to fame.<\/p>\n
More recently, Gershon has appeared in supporting roles on the CW teen drama “Riverdale” and the NBC medical show “New Amsterdam.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
