Cox Refused Sex-Scenes Stunt

Courteney Cox refused to use a body double for sex scenes in TV series 'Dirt' because she is proud of her curves. The former 'Friends' star - who plays Lucy Spiller, a sex-obsessed tabloid magazine editor - felt liberated about flashing some flesh.

She said: "I'm not a little girl anymore - I'm a woman. I was nervous at first about exposing myself. It was like, 'You know what? I'm going to be who I am.' That was a big change."

In one episode, the 42-year-old actress romps with a young, fit yoga instructor, while in another she gets hot and heavy in the back of a limo with actor Josh Stewart. Cox, 42, also shares a steamy same-sex kiss with former 'Friends' co-star Jennifer Aniston. Jennifer, who is best pals with Courteney in real life, makes a cameo appearance on the show as a lesbian rival magazine editor.
