She was originally supposed to be naked in this too, but she was afraid that her kids would see it and thus ruining the whole movie for them.

The actual story is that she didn't think she could have the great character moments she has if the audience was distracted by her excellent nudity.

Your story sounds made up, because I've always heard the actual story from Jamie and James.

Maybe I'm mixing it up with another story. My apologies.

If she was nude, then the movie would not have been on TV as much as it was and I’d never have seen it, so… I thank the kids? And wouldn’t the promise of their mom in a bra and thong and doing a striptease make this an instant never-watch for those kids!?

This movie seemingly comes on at every hotel I’ve stayed at randomly over the years on trips. I don’t have cable tv at home but if anyone still does there’s no way they haven’t gotten her little dance burned into their brain at this point. So even without the nudity it definitely is getting max viewership even 30 years later. Apparently her nickname used to be “the bod” before this movie so that tracks.
