'Sweating cow' Billie Piper
Monday, 18 August 2008
Billie Piper felt like a "sweating sea cow" while filming sex scenes for TV show 'Secret Diary Of A Call Girl'.
The 25-year-old actress - who is expecting her first child with husband Laurence Fox - admits she found it hard to get into character as glamorous London escort Belle de Jour for the raunchy show.
She said: "This year I found the heat very uncomfortable and that, coupled with the fact that I was growing every day, the lack of sleep and the desire to just sit on my bum and stuff my face, was not conducive to work.
"I was thirsty all the time and always needing the toilet - which is really unhelpful when working to such a tight schedule.
"When I am playing Belle I have to play a sexually liberated, empowered young prostitute but unfortunately I felt like a sweating sea cow!"
Billie - who is expected to welcome her first baby into the world in October - also revealed she has not been suffering from any unusual cravings during the pregnancy.
She added to Britain's OK! Magazine: "I had no food cravings other than wanting food constantly."
The second series of 'Secret Diary Of A Call Girl' will be shown on ITV next month.
