even as a man who spent a large portion of his life half-naked, grappling with other half-naked men, john cena sure isn’t a fan of baring it all.
the pro wrestler-turned-actor explained why he isn’t a fan of doing sex scenes in movies and what his most embarrassing moment in front of a camera actually was.

during his appearance on wednesday’s episode of the club shay shay podcast, the 13-time wwe champion revealed that despite having filmed several raunchy scenes before, it was (nearly) baring it all at this year’s oscars that was the worst.

“i got all the people behind the camera, but then i walk out in front of a room of my peers, many of which i’ve never met because i haven’t worked my way up to meet (them),” cena told host shannon sharpe.
“i have the most decorated performers, producers, directors in one room and i’m gonna go out there with my balls in the wind, with an index card covering my stuff like, ‘hey guys, is this funny? are we good?’”
during the sketch at the 96th academy awards, host jimmy kimmel was on stage and poked fun at the time a nude man ran across the stage at the event in 1974.
“can you imagine if a nude man ran across the stage today? wouldn’t that be crazy?” kimmel said as cena came out on stage apparently nude but hiding his unmentionables with a large presenter’s envelope.

cena jokingly said that he “changed my mind” about streaking and that “the male body is not a joke!”
the jackpot star admitted that he thought he would be “more naked” during the skit, saying “i expected full d*** and nuts, but it’s disney, so you got to put tape on my butt crack. that was even more embarrassing.
“going out there with a taped butthole, that’s tough.”
as for filming sex scenes in movies, they’re “the worst,” cena said.
“oh my god, it’s the worst,” he said. “there are so many people you need to make a movie. there’s nothing intimate about it. nothing. like it’s really embarrassing.”

he mentioned his sex scene with amy schumer in 2015 rom-com trainwreck as something that he didn’t enjoy shooting.

“on top of that, to do a comedic sex scene, where you’re like, making fun of yourself? they literally (said) ‘try to have the most awkward sex you possibly can,’” cena recalled.
“i don’t want to say it sucks, but it’s different than you all think it was,” he added.
