The Category III Naked Ambition, released today, is the fleshiest flick to come out in quite a while. Controversy has surrounded this movie, with Eason Chan Yick-shun and Josie Ho Chiu-yee engaging in quite a raunchy sex scene.
'This was my first sex scene. It was easier because I was doing it with Eason, and we have been friends for years,' says Josie. 'We discussed it a lot together and with the director, Dante Chan Hing Ka, so there were no surprises.'
Josie reveals that her sex scene with Chan did not feature actual, 100 per cent nudity. In fact, Josie's husband to be, Conroy Chan, was on hand during the filming of the scene, which lasted two whole nights. 'He would tell the director to stop playing back the footage on the monitor. I guess he couldn't stand watching it over and over again, but he was really good about it,' Josie adds.
Is she happy with her on-screen sex debut? 'Yeah, I saw it and was pretty happy with it, but I felt I could have done better.'
This is the kind of unwavering self-criticism that drives this critically acclaimed actress (and tai tai)!
