Carey Mulligan: 'Nude scenes have helped me deal with body issues' Published Saturday, Apr 6 2013, 11:18am EDT | By Sam Rigby |(DIGITAL SPY)

Carey Mulligan has revealed that nude scenes have helped her overcome her body issues.

The Great Gatsby actress said that she found getting naked for scenes with Michael Fassbender in Shame "liberating", reports The Sun.

"In my own life I'm very prudish about my body, or at least I have been in the past," she said.

"I'm always covering myself up rather than wearing skimpy outfits. I don't look good in very short skirts - at least I don't think so.

"I'm often terrified about different aspects of characters I'm playing."

Mulligan starred alongside Fassbender in the Steve McQueen directed film in 2011 and despite being nervous about the scenes, she insisted that it was important for the character that she do them.

"With respect to nudity, it was vital to the character in Shame, who wasn't supposed to be a very attractive character and needed to be emotionally naked and lost in different ways," she said.

"This is who she is - a character who can stand fully naked in front of her brother and not feel anything.

Colin would’ve been the best man for the job By GORDON SMART, Showbiz Editor (THE SUN)

SINGER Marcus Mumford’s missus, actress Carey Mulligan, persuaded her pal Colin Firth to give a speech at their wedding reception on Saturday. A source said: “She thought it would be funny to have the actor address the room. “Unlike his character in The King’s Speech, Colin was a pro at the speech.

Mumford and wife: Carey Mulligan and her pop star are married among the hay bales in a barn - by groom's father By KATIE NICHOLL (MAIL ON LINE)

Award-winning actress Carey Mulligan and folk rock singer Marcus Mumford were married yesterday – by the groom’s father in a converted barn on a working farm.

The bride, 26, who won an Oscar nomination and a BAFTA for her role in An Education, exchanged vows with the Mumford & Sons frontman in a rustic-themed ceremony in the middle of the Somerset countryside.

Marcus’s father John, a vicar, conducted the service inside a barn at Stream Farm in Bridgwater.

Among the 200 guests were actress Sienna Miller, Hollywood star Jake Gyllenhaal and Oscar-winner Colin Firth.

As the couple emerged from a large marquee attached to a cowshed, contemporary photographer Rankin fired off shots of the beaming bride. She looked radiant in a full-length ivory plain backless dress with V-straps, thought to be a Versace design.

Earlier, the groom, 25, was seen in Ray-Ban sunglasses driving himself to the venue before a helicopter, believed to be carrying his father, landed in a nearby field. The party was organised by Bentley’s Entertainment, the London-based firm behind Petra Ecclestone’s lavish wedding in Italy last year.
