10 Movie Stripteases …The List 

The scenes below are not just about disrobing: there’s an emotional element to the act, which makes it so thoroughly human. Whether motivated by a dare, money, revenge or simply to prove a point, getting brazenly naked has its rewards, for the characters onscreen and for us, watching in the audience.

While various “Best Movie Striptease Scenes” lists pop up around the web, they’re typically ranked by the Web sites themselves. What’s a better way of finding out if the actors were realistic in their portrayals than to ask strippers themselves? In light of this, SCORES, the world famous Gentlemen’s Club in New York City, has ranked the Top 10 Best Striptease Scenes in Movies, as chosen by its dancers.

The idea of humiliating another actor or being humiliated myself is devastating. So that’s why, if he’s a little rougher than he knows he’s being, the last thing I want to say is, ‘Oh my gosh, you hurt me’. Most actors are like that. We all go, ‘No, no. I’m fine. Don’t worry about it.’ Because that’s how you release into things and find stuff. If you’re tentative and scared that you’re hurting someone or that you’re overstepping a line or that there’s a boundary that you’ve crossed, it makes everybody too cautious.
