5% of Hollywood Nude Scenes Depict LGBTQ Characters. Which Actors Appear in Them?

After watching more than 27 hours of nude scenes (it's a tough job, but somebody has to do it), an analysis by Bingo Sites reveals that only five percent of nude scenes are related to LGBTQ characters.

Some of Hollywood's biggest actors fall into the minority. Still, among male A-list actors, the majority (93.1%) of nudity in their filmographies is heterosexual. Only 6.9% of male nudity is related to LGBTQ roles and scenes.

Among female A-list actors, a tiny proportion (4%) of nudity on-screen relates to an LGBTQ narrative involving queer characters or same-sex love scenes.

The question everyone is asking – which actors have appeared in the most scenes nude as an LGBTQ character? The study defined LGBTQ nudity as consisting of "a male or female actor appearing nude (showing their 'buttocks,' 'breasts,' or 'genitals') in a scene either as an LGBTQ character or nude in a scene with an LGBTQ character.
