Halle Berry:'Frankie and Alice'stripper role was'easy...you just take your clothes off!'

Forget all those stars who claim it's hard work playing a stripper,Oscar-winningactressHalle Berrythinks it's a joke.

"{There's} not much research to play a stripper -- you just kind of take your clothes off!"she toldAccess Hollywoodat the premiere of"Frankie and Alice.""It's kind of easy!"

In the film, Berry plays a character with a multiple personality disorder, torn between her stripper persona and a racist alter ego. The 44-year-old actress said she read"thick dense medical books"and spoke to people who suffered from the disordered.

This is not the first time Berry, who recently revealed on"The Ellen DeGeneres Show"that she often walks around her house naked, has stripped off on the big screen. She previously went fully nude in an explicit sex scene for 2001's"Monster's Ball"alongsideBilly Bob Thornton.

Berry later became the first African American woman to win the Best Actress Academy Award for her efforts.

"Frankie and Alice"premieres on Dec. 17.
