To get into character, actors often need to learn new tricks or change their looks. For the Crank sequel, actress Amy Smart had to go for pole-dancing lessons, and though it was weird at first, she eventually fell in love with the routine. Now she vows she will do it for a long time to come because it’s a great workout and because it keeps her boyfriend hooked to her!
"It was sexually liberating and really fun. It takes a lot of work to make it look easy. It's really awkward in the beginning but I had fun. At one point, I wondered if I would ever pick it up. I loved my routine to Billy Squire's song 'Stroke Me'. That'll get you going on the pole!" she says. Adding, "Prior to working on this film, I had taken a few classes of pole-dancing and striptease at Sheila Kelly’s S Factor studio in Los Angeles. It's a really great place for women because it's very sexual and very female empowering. I think I'll get back into that because it was a great workout and a great class, and there are no mirrors so you don't have to feel insecure watching yourself, seeing how you look; you just sort of feel it in your body."
