Freida Pinto On Her Butt Double, “Desert Dancer” & Bruno Mars
You probably know Freida Pinto as the gorgeous, talented actress from Slumdog Millionaire, but did you know she’s also an experienced pole dancer? We found out this little nugget and more when she sat down with Yahoo Style’s Nick Axelrod for a rollicking round of Web sleuthing in this episode of “I Yahoo’d Myself.”
Among the racy topics discussed: Pinto casting her own “butt double” for the 2011 film Immortals; her first (awkward) commercial for Wrigley’s gum; and learning to work the pole for Bruno Mars’ “Gorilla” music video. (She appeared as a stripper!) “It is so hard doing anything on the pole,” revealed Pinto, who stars in the new film Desert Dancer (out April 10). “It’s a lot about technique, but it’s a lot about strength. And do you know where the strength comes from?” WHERE?! Watch the video above to find out…
