Jonathan Rhys Meyers talks about getting fat and enjoying sex scenes

Beautiful Jonathan Rhys Meyers took some time out of his busy schedule to attend a Britney Spears concert the other night and he was even nice enough to sign some autographs for all the “Tudors” fans in attendance. Meyers is enjoying his successful run on the cable drama but admits that he hopes the show ends before delving into Henry VIII’s fat phase.
“I wouldn’t be very good at putting on a lot of weight. When I played Elvis (a young Presley, in the 2005 TV movie “Elvis”), I really had to struggle so I would have Elvis’ puppy fat,” Meyers said. “I had to keep eating.” This season he has been dealing with an injury to his leg, but it has not lowered his libido one bit! “It doesn’t seem to have affected his sexual prowess,” Meyers observed. “Of course, Henry wasn’t as sexed up as the show is. But we’re not selling it to a 16th-century audience.”
So how do all the on-screen sex scenes affect Jonathan’s love life? “Doing the erotic stuff, it is what it is,” Meyers said. “But it’s not really where you get the best of your acting. I have a girlfriend, these girls have boyfriends.
So where’s the respectful line in doing a sex scene if you really want to do a good one?” He recalled being asked by the director in the first season to touch an actress’ breast, and being cautioned by her that she had a boyfriend. “Not anymore,” a cheeky Meyers replied. [Source]
Boyfriend or not, I’d be happy to spend some time acting with Meyers. I’ll have to get my agent on that, ASAP.
