ANGELA LANSBURY - LANSBURY WORRIES ABOUT HER LACK OF NAKED AMBITION

Movie veteran ANGELA LANSBURY fears she'd never make it in Hollywood today - because she'd never bare all for a film role.

THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE actress secretly admires the courage of modern stars who disrobe for sexy parts - because she would never be able to get naked in front of the cameras.

Lansbury says, "The public's taste shifts. When I first started out - this was the war years - the whole audience was made up of a different collection of people.

"I don't know whether I would have been prepared to go out for frontal nudity and all of that stuff that seems very important today - I would have been too self-conscious to do that.

"The girls today are absolutely ready and prepared to bare all... I've revealed a bit of cleavage but that's about it."
