From The AfterElton.com Winter TV Preview!
When It's On: The show premieres Friday January 22nd at 10 PM on Starz.
The Great Gay Says: "People in Hollywood were like, 'Why? Why are you
doing that? Spartacus sounds like Xena again," Lucy Lawless tells the
Great Gay. "And I was like, 'I don't know. It's really good.'"
Regarding the show's much-discussed female and male nudity, Lawless
says, "I have to be naked on screen. I'm terrified. I hate it. But if
it's right to fulfill a scene, and it's what a character would do, you
gotta go there, because that part, I'm an artist. No matter what my
pathetic middle-class morals [say], I want to be truthful more than I
want to protect myself. [Anyway], there's plenty of things for people
who like bosoms, and there's plenty of things for those who like naked
male bodies. However, all that stuff is meaningless unless you care
about the character."
