Actor needed a ‘d**k tie’ in order to perform sex scene with Jennifer Lopez in Netflix movie

A co-star of Jennifer Lopez revealed how during the filming of an intimate scene, he was provided with a 'd**k tie' to prevent any unfortunate - and uncomfortable - mishaps occuring.

What sounds like every teenage boy’s fantasy was actually a really mechanical process, as Ryan Guzman once revealed.

Guzman starred alongside 'Jenny from the Block' in the 2015 thriller The Boy Next Door, which followed a 19-year-old man who, after having a one-night stand with his high school teacher, develops a dangerous obsession with her.

Sounds classy, we know.

The d**k tie also ensures no 'surprises' happen during the filming of the hot and heavy scenes... if you know what we mean.

The actor went on to explain other measures put in place to maintain the pair's professionalism and dignity, including the 'guards' that were used during particularly graphic scenes.

"There's a guard there," Guzman said when speaking about having his 'hands all over her body'.

"She was wearing something on top of her and there was no full-on hand-to-genitalia, I mean … it was just, yeah. We kept it professional.

"Even when I'm grabbing on her chest, there were guards on them too, and my hand had to be positioned in a certain way so it didn't show any of the guards [in the shot]."

In all honesty, we think most of us would have preferred to keep an industry secret like that... a secret.

One that we never acknowledge and certainly don’t talk about in order to keep the fantasy alive, like Father Christmas, or the Tooth Fairy. Or one of the many other relatable things to blockbuster film sex scenes.

For those of you who love a rom-com as much as anyone else, or are a die-hard fan of erotic thrillers, we’re sorry.
