Jake Gyllenhaal is spilling the beans on his naked screen time with Anne Hathaway in their new movie, “Love And Other Drugs”.

While making an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live”, Jake spilled the dirt about his steamy sex scenes from the movie, and with co-star Anne Hathaway.

He said, “I’m making a movie with Annie Hathaway, and we’ve been having a lot of love scenes in that movie. And we’ve been baring almost all of us. So that’s not been that bad, either. We were pretty much naked but for a merkin.”

In case you don’t know what a merkin is, Jake explains it as a device that “prostitutes used to wear when they shaved their pubic hair in the 16th century….because they thought they had crabs” or he said, it’s “a cover for your junk.” Well said, Jake.

When asked what Anne wore for their love scenes, he responded, “Out of respect to Anne, I’m going to have to leave that up to her when she comes on the show”, but later revealed, “it’s a similar sort of thing, but it has other functions.”
