XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS star LUCY LAWLESS is pleased with her body - but still asked for a stunt-bottom.

The New Zealander was asked by X-FILES creator CHRIS CARTER to join the cast of the hit sci-fi show on one condition - she sheds her clothes.

Lucy says, "I keep thinking it's butt naked, but it's not, is it? It's buck-naked. My character swans around in water.

"Naked water sports with strategically placed bubbles and a really awesome stunt butt. Not that there's anything wrong with mine!

"But, you know, you just want one of those women with those kick ass bodies who spend hours at the gym everyday. And, I ain't one of those. But, I love the women that are. So, I got this wonderful women to double for me."
