The Red Carpet Flesh Factor

Stars are showing more flesh than ever as they step out at premieres - 59% of their naked bodies, in fact.

Researchers claim celebs show, on average, more than half their naked body when treading the red carpet.

They have scanned through the years to see how much nudity has been on show over the decades.

Liz Hurley famously upped the ante in a safety pin Versace creation at the opening of Four Weddings And A Funeral in 1994 (pictured left).

In that year, the average bare skin quota was just 39% - compared to Liz's treble-figure flash.

In 2000, Kelly Brook shocked onlookers at the premiere of Snatch by wearing a Julien Macdonald two piece, consisting of little more than knickers and a backless, sideless dress. (pictured right)

Since the 1950s, the most prudish decade was, interestingly, the 70s when stars like Carrie Fisher and Goldie Hawn showed just 7%.

Researchers say if trends continue, stars with be showing off three-quarters of their bods by 2010. If that's the case, bring on 2010!
