Tina O’BrienFormer Coronation Street star Tina O’Brien has said she has no plans to jump into adult roles involving nudity now that she’s left the soap.

Tina spent eight years on the Street before deciding it was time to move on and her character Sarah-Louise Platt got to move on too: leaving Weatherfield for a new life in Milan in yesterday’s episode. But even though Tina’s posed for sexy photo shoots for magazines in the past, Tina says she’s still too shy about her body to strip off completely for the cameras if demanded by any post-Corrie roles.

She told the Sunday Mirror recently: “I don’t look that good without all the airbrushing, believe me. Some days my hair looks horrible, nothing fits right and, like every woman, I think ‘I’m so ugly’.”

“I certainly don’t look at myself and think, ‘Phwoar’ - and I imagine most guys who meet me are disappointed.”

“I really admire Billie Piper for doing Secret Diary Of A Call Girl. Good for her. She’s obviously comfortable with her body, but I don’t think I’d be happy having people see me naked. I’m just not confident enough.”

“I do try to eat healthily. If I find I’ve been having too many takeaways I’ll knock them on the head for a while, but I do believe women can become obsessed with being thin.”

“I think if you ask the majority of men they would agree with me - they don’t want women who are too skinny. Look at Kelly Brook. Men love her and she has curves in all the right places. They’re more attracted to that than beanpoles. Having said that, being thin does work for some women. Keira Knightley always looks fantastic.”
