View Full Version : Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Phoebe Cates Named Top Nude Scene of All Time

Phoebe Cates' bikini-busting topless scene in Fast Times at Ridgemont High has been named the No. 1 celebrity nude scene of all time by the website Mr. Skin.

This confirms two things. 1) Co-star Judge Reinhold should now officially be acquitted of his actions in the bathroom afterward. 2) There's only one job better than writing Stuck in the '80s and that's obviously working at Mr. Skin, the very adult website that basically is in the business of pointing out exactly where to find celebrity nudity in mainstream Hollywood movies. (Call me!)

"This is the celebrity nude scene to which all other celebrity nude scenes must answer," Mr. Skin said in justifying its pick of Phoebe. "The power of this moment comes from a young star at her most beautiful, a sexy slow-motion build-up, and the relatable circumstance of a teenage crush on your sister’s hot friend. After Fast Times, Phoebe Cates never did a topless scene again. Her work was done!"

Only one other '80s scene landing in the Top 10 -- and no, it's not Jamie Lee Curtis in Trading Places (the obvious and correct pick). Instead, Mr. Skin chose to tap Kelly Preston -- no pun intended -- for the No. 6 spot for 1985's Mischief.

Here's where other '80s scenes landed in their ranking. Also worth noting that Molly Ringwald's nude shot in Malicious made the list at No. 96, but I don't include it below since it was released in 1995. And if you want to see the full Mr. Skin list, click here. It's pretty risque so you might want to wait until you get home. Also worth noting: No male nudity!

Why am I not surprised? I remember reading years ago from some video rental company that many VHS copies were ruined in that spot because of the constant rewinding. MEN. :rolleyes: :lol:

^lol I'm not surprised by VHS copies being ruined by men. My sister worked at a video rental place during the 90's and she said VHS copies were always ruined.

That scene with Pheobie Cates is unforgettable. Lets put it that way :)


About Kelly Preston, that movie Mischief is actually a good movie, and worth finding. I dont think its on DVD though.

I've only watched two of those movies, "Splash" and "Wildcats", and I can't remember a nekkid scene in either one of 'em. :confused:

Goldie Hawn, above the waist- bathtub scene when her ex-husband comes in to talk to her.

I'm sure that Kevin Kline will enjoy the fact that many men have rubbed one out to that red bikini scene involving his wife in Fast Times.:crazy:
