I was on Naked Attraction – the men have a VERY rude trick to impress bosses during the nude auditions

NAKED Attraction’s previous contestant have spilled the beans on what actually happens behind the scenes.

The Channel 4 dating show, which is currently on its ninth season, has been airing since 2016.

Presented by Anna Richardson, the controversial format has seen hundreds of singletons appear fully naked, in the hopes of finding true love.

The show aims to pair up its contestants solely using the power of nudity.

A few of the brave singletons who braved all on Naked Attraction have spoken out about their experience and what it’s like to bare all in front of the nation.

Previous contestant Gavin spoke to the i, revealing the very bizarre payment promise.

He explained that those on standby are told they will only be paid if they don’t appear on the show, and those who are chosen, don’t get paid a penny.

“If you’re on standby and you don’t appear on the show then you get paid £75 for being in the room.

“You don’t get paid if you’re on the show”.

Gavin continued: “I got accepted. I think it’s quite hard to get rejected – most people who apply get on.”

The Channel 4 contestant also explained the awkward nude audition process, where show hopefuls had to stand in front of a camera naked being interviewed for almost an hour.

Gavin said: “I went down to Newcastle, sat down and chatted with a camerawoman and a male interviewee.

“Then they said ‘Can you take your clothes off now and pitch yourself to us?’ It lasted about 45 minutes.”

However he explained that it “wasn’t so awkward” and that the team “made me feel at ease”.

Filming days are long and tiresome, and it took Gavin from 7am until 3pm to film one 30-minute segment of the hour-long show.

He explained that there was “quite a lot of shaking” going on amongst the men on the show, due to there being a chilly draft.

“Whenever the camera wasn’t on, everyone was shaking themselves to try and make themselves look bigger”, he said.

Speaking to The Celeb Report, another former contestant called Emmylou confirmed that Gavin’s claim about contestants not being paid was true.

She said: “You don’t get paid. It’s something that if you want to do, you can do.

“It’s very liberating – and a great experience.”

Emmylou’s audition took place over a video call, not in-person, but she also had to take her clothes off.

She explained: “You’d think that would be nerve-racking but it wasn’t.

You have a conversation with them before and when you audition it’s a case of taking your clothes off.”
