Days of Our Lives Star Judi Evans Opens Up About All Those Love Scenes And Fight Scenes
Speaking to Soap Opera Digest, the talented actress was asked about how she prepares for her stunts and all of the fight scenes she has to do. Judi responded with, “That’s so exciting. That brings out the tomboy in me. I can’t wait to do them. Sometimes the stunt guys will come in and they [start explaining things]. I’ll go, ‘No, no, no. I’ll take the fall. I’m good. I’ve got three older brothers. Believe me, I can do it.’ I get all excited and start thinking about it ahead of time, especially with physical comedy. When they write that stuff in it’s big and broad, and I like it. It’s a break from the crying.”
Days of Our Lives Star Judi Doesn’t Mind Doing Love Scenes On-Camera
And of course, you can’t talk about fight scenes without talking about love scenes. And Salem sure does have a lot of them. When asked how she prepares for all that on-screen romance, Judi explained, “I have to be honest, I work with great guys, but it’s always kind of uncomfortable. You’re playing very intimate scenes in front of a lot of people on the set. That’s always uncomfortable. I always have body issues and I sweat like a pig because I get so nervous and uncomfortable. Because I have negative issues about my body, I get really tense about it. So I’m thinking about it and sweating. Then the moment comes, that’s out the window, we’re in the scene, it’s over, and I’m comfortable again until I leave.”
It sounds to us as though she’s got one of the best jobs in the industry, right? Talk about a lucky gal.
