‘GLOW’ Star Alison Brie Talks Wrestling, Romance, and Being a Nudist in College

Alison Brie, the Golden Globe –nominated star of GLOW and this month’s revenge thriller Promising Young Woman, talks being a clown for hire and returning to her nudist roots.
Top 5 Flowers to Buy for Your Sweetie:
Oh my God, everything. I think what I will miss the most, which I’m nervous that will never happen again in any other job ever, is getting to play such a myriad of levels.
Getting to do it all: broad, hammy comedy and very serious, nuanced drama, all within the same episode. Plus, we have wrestling, which lets me work other muscles—figuratively and quite literally.
I’ve become so addicted to lifting heavy weights and working my body in the gym. Wrestling really has changed the way that I view my body, and strength training goes hand in hand with that.
You stop thinking about yourself as an actress, trying to be skinny for roles. You start thinking about yourself as an athlete, wanting to be really strong to execute these moves on the show.
“Washing the dishes is always a good thing. And getting a woman flowers will never get old.”
It wasn’t weird at all. It was actually freeing and fun. I’ve always been a naked person.
In college, I was bit of a nudist. I have no problem with nudity. But at the same time, it’s not something I took lightly. I never made a steadfast rule that I’m not going to do nudity, but everything that came my way involved nudity just didn’t seem to merit it to me. I’m glad that I waited—because I got to do it for the first time on a project that was created by women, that was celebrating women’s bodies.
I went to Cal Arts and studied theater. It’s always been a very experimental school that enables students to feel boundary-less in their art. When I was there, clothing was only required in the cafeteria. I would exercise my right to be naked—taking a jog through school naked, or making my roommate laugh by hanging naked from the tree outside our dorm. It was just funny to me. Kind of still is.
I was a literal clown—a birthday-party clown as a summer job between high school and college. It actually helped me as an actress in terms of fearlessness when going into auditions, because there will be nothing scarier than entertaining a group of 20 seven-year-olds for an hour.
I’ve never really wanted to have kids, and I still feel that way. And I’m lucky that I’m married to a man [actor Dave Franco ] who also is not interested in having kids. But we do reserve the right to change our minds.
The concept is extremely timely—looking at the different ways that men and women have defined sexual consent, and how we can all get on the same page. Yet the film does it in such a delicious way that it’s compelling and fun to watch.
I think everyone wants to feel appreciated, understood, and empathized with. A lot of the time men feel like they need to solve every problem for a woman, but women just want to be listened to and appreciated. Sometimes it’s just enough to acknowledge, “Thank you for making dinner; it’s delicious.” Washing the dishes is always a good thing. Getting a woman flowers will never get old.

Alison Brie in the Netflix series "GLOW." (Erica Parise/Netflix)
After starring in shows such as “Mad Men” and “Community,” one thing Alison Brie had yet to do on screen was strip down in front of the cameras. Now, the 34-year-old star is making waves as 1980s female wrestler, Ruth Wilder, in the Netflix series “GLOW,” where the she learned how to get comfortable with nude scenes .
“Very early on in auditioning it was a case of, ‘Don’t come to any more auditions unless you’re comfortable with nudity, because it is a part of the show,’” Brie told Net-a-Porter’s The Edit . “It was a deal-breaker, for sure. At that time, I just wanted to be on the show so much that I really didn’t care.”
The star admitted to the magazine that she was somewhat unsure about doing on-screen nudity, but she became more comfortable with the idea when she learned that the nudity on the show wasn’t just for show.
"It was important that the show be a realistic portrayal of life in the way people live and the way they have sex,” Alison said. “And also that our show be about every aspect of women’s bodies, and women not being ashamed of their bodies. We’re not being shot in a way that’s over-sexualizing us, or exploiting us. I found it very freeing and empowering, and I’m so glad that I did it.”
But the nude scenes weren’t the only thing that helped Brie to feel empowered. The star said that a lot of her role as Wilder involved fitness. Brie and rest of the cast focused on working out for the show, but the star said the experience of “GLOW” helped her learn how to use her body in a different ways, giving her a whole new appreciation for her the female figure.
“It really changed the way I felt about my body. It felt so empowering and exciting, and it proved that we were capable of so much more than we expected. “ GLOW” is such a body-positive show; all of the women on it feel really comfortable in their bodies, and that is such a healthy thing to be surrounded by.”
Recently the actress received nominations for both the Golden Globes and SAG Awards, and also has a role in the Tommy Wiseau inspired film,“The Disaster Artist,” which stars in a long-side her brother-in-law James Franco and her husband Dave Franco.

Her new starring role in Netflix wrestling comedy GLOW, requires a lot of skin on show.
But confident Alison Brie has insisted she had no qualms about stripping off on screen, thanks to her racy days at a 'nudist' college.
The US actress stars in the new comedy from the creators of SAG-winning Orange Is The New Black.

Alison plays Ruth, an out of work actress in the series that focuses on what goes on in the ring and their relationships with one another.
In a new interview with Playboy, the leading lady confesses 'I definitely did some push-ups and sit-ups in my room to pump up the right muscles beforehand.
And while she adds she's passed on previous projects which required nudity, she was 'obsessed' with landing the GLOW role, and knew nudity was an integral part of the character.

Find this very similar version at Farfetch...
If you've got a black tie wedding to attend this summer then you'll no doubt be in the market for a maxi dress.
Full length looks have become de rigueur at weddings over the last few years and we like the formality and glamour they lend to proceedings. As long as you don't go for a long white dress then you're golden...
It's safest to avoid black too so we suggest trying sophisticated navy blue instead. Alison Brie is providing the inspiration today in this slinky gown by Jason Wu. We love the way it skims her figure and the sexily draped neckline.
The exact version isn't available online but you can buy this very similar style at Farfetch now (right). Or get the look for less with our edit of blue beauties below. Ghost has our top pick.

'Getting naked on camera is like ripping off a Band-Aid. The hardest part is the transition from being in your robe to being naked on set,' she mused. 'Once I was naked, it kind of reminded me of my nudist days from college and that feeling of, "Oh yeah, I love my body and this is fun and silly and its fine."'
