Oliver Hudsonbelieves that less is more.
In conversation withE! News’Daily PopMonday, the 45-year-old actor spoke about posting nude photos of himself onInstagram, sharing his views on nudity as a form of self-expression.
Asked about his wife Erinn Bartlett’s thoughts on his naked photos,The Cleaning Ladystar joked “I mean, she thinks I’m crazy, like my whole entire family. But it’s me!”
He continued, “Instagram is a great place to express who I am — like, that is fully me. If I want to be naked, I am going to be naked. I feel like male nudity is funny… there is nothing sexy about it. It is just sort of weird and funny.”
Hudson — whose sister isKate Hudson, and whose parents areGoldie HawnandKurt Russell— previouslytold PEOPLEwhy he strips down on social media, explaining last year, "It comes from growing up in a very open family, honestly."
“Nudity has never been taboo,” he said. “We were all born naked and it’s the way it is.”
Sharing the same philosophy today with his own family, telling PEOPLE, “Even now with my kids, we’re just naked people. That’s just the way it is. I’m definitely comfortable with it.”
“I had my son filming it. The behind-the-scenes of that Instagram post is amazing because I’m upset with him because he’s not getting it right,” he told PEOPLE.
“It’s really funny. Instagram took it down and I’m, ‘What is going on?’ And I decided to just look up what Instagram is, and what it does and the amount of photos that are on Instagram that are far more salacious than what I put out, are up,” Oliver continued. “But then I re-posted it. I re-posted it because I was, ‘Come on you guys, what, really?’ And so we’ll see what happens.”
As of publication time, the video remains on Oliver’s Instagram account, re-posted on Sept. 21.
