Breaking out success in 2004’s “Mean Girls” plus appearing in “Veronica Mars” both at age 19.

Seyfried said that she came out of the pre-#MeToo era of Hollywood “pretty unscathed,” she did open up about being in at-times uncomfortable situations.

“Being 19, walking around without my underwear on - like, are you kidding me? How did I let that happen? Oh, I know why: I was 19 and I didn’t want to upset anybody, and I wanted to keep my job. That’s why.”

Seyfried reflected on steering clear from “unnecessary nudity or sex” onscreen “because as you get older you realize it’s not easy. It can be funky and uncomfortable.”

Earlier this year Seyfried said that she “always felt really grossed out” by male “Mean Girls” fans quoting a joke about her character knowing the weather by touching her breasts. “I was like 18 years old. It was just gross.”
