Famke Janssen's Family Went To Naked CampsX-Men star Famke Janssen wasn't embarrassed when she saw co-star Sir Ian McKellen naked, because she grew up in a family that regularly attends nude camps.The beautiful brunette star was raised in liberal Amsterdam, The Netherlands, and is quite comfortable with her sexuality.Janssen was filming X-Men:The Last Stand in Vancouver, Canada, and decided to do some sightseeing when she unexpectedly ran into her naked co-star.She explains, "Somebody told me about this beach I should go check out, so I went with a friend."I get there and it happens to be a nude beach and the first person I bump into is Sir Ian McKellen, flopping in the wind."It's not strange for me so much. I'm Dutch and my family, they're a little weird - they go to nude camps a lot.

"Then they go play tennis naked, or go bowling naked or do yoga naked. Some things need to be left to the imagination!"

Meanwhile fellow X Men actor Actor Hugh Jackman has stolen fellow Australian Russell Crowe's lead role in Baz Luhrmann's new film epic, after the Gladiator star was reportedly dumped by the director. The X-Men star wowed the Moulin Rouge! film-maker and he will now play Nicole Kidman's lover, instead of Crowe, in a movie set around the Japanese bombing of Darwin, Australia, in 1942.

Luhrmann tells Hollywood reporter: "He just continues to astound in terms of his range, whether it's Boy From Oz or Wolverine.

"He's always been a leading man, but he is moving toward being an iconic leading man, which is perfect for the story we're doing."
