Pressly Denies Being Barrymore's Nude Body Double

Actress Jaime Pressly has dismissed speculation she was Drew Barrymore's nude body double in 1996 movie POISON IVY 2. Pressly insists she was never a naked stand-in for Barrymore, the star of 1992's Poison Ivy who didn't actually appear in the sequel, and blames the confusion on a flashback sequence. She tells Playboy magazine, "Drew plays Ivy in the first Poison Ivy film, and in Poison Ivy 2 Alyssa Milano plays the art student who moves into Ivy's old room in a house with other students. "She finds a diary and pictures of Drew's character in a closet. The pictures are supposed to be of Drew, but they're of me, though you never see my face. "When Alyssa reads Ivy's diary - Drew's diary - she imagines her, but instead of Ivy being Drew, she's me. "People say I body-doubled her and it was my boobs and my ass in the movie instead of hers, but that isn't the case. "I haven't had a body double myself, but I'm not opposed to it."
