Amanda Seyfried Admits Watching Her First Porn Movie at Age 6
So what is the right age to watch porn? If you go by actress Amanda Seyfried's statistics...its..hold your breath..six years of age.
Seyfried, who is playing porn star Linda Lovelace in new flick "Lovelace," claims she saw her first porn movie at the age of six and clearly remembers what it was all about!
In an interview with the GQ magazine, the actress confessed she was "five or six. Six, I think" and described the whole experience as "terrifying" and "so so wrong."
"Yeah. It was a cop--a guy dressed in a cop costume ... and it was the first time I'd ever seen a penis, and I remember it being very graphic ... it was so terrifying. It was funny. But it was also, like, so, so, so wrong," the actress admits.
However the actress said that the whole experience left her scared at that tender age that she is going to get infected by AIDS after watching the movie.
"It was 1990 or 1991, and so AIDS was really rampant. Watching any kind of sexual acts when you're a six-year-old would make you think you were going to contract AIDS somehow," the actress said.
So did the actress watch Linda Lovelace's famous porn flick "Deep Throat" as a preparation for her role as a porn star? The actress told the magazine that watching one clip was enough for her to prepare for the role as most of the stuff in porn movies is repetitive.
"There's no point in watching the whole movie. It's the same s**t for an hour and a half. If you've seen a clip of it, you've seen the movie," Seyfried said.
In a separate interview with Vanity Fair magazine the actress admitted that she is not a fan of porn movies, "But I'm not a big porn fan. I didn't need to see that. . . it's just kind of gross."
"Lovelace" is an autobiographical film based on the life of famous porn star Linda Lovelace, who later left her career as a porn star and lead a life supporting the anti-pornographic movement.
Directed by Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman, the film also stars Peter Sarsgaard, Sharon Stone, Adam Brody and Juno Temple. The movie received good reviews at its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in January will be released on August 9 in U.S.
