Olivia Wilde pokes fun at Daniel Craig
Olivia Wilde claims Daniel Craig is terrible at paddleboarding.
While filming Cowboys & Aliens with the burly British actor, 46, in 2011, the 30-year-old actress fell in love with the surface water sport, but claims he wasn’t particularly good at it because he was ‘too muscly.’
She told Oprah Winfrey’s O magazine: ‘While shooting ‘Cowboys & Aliens’ in New Mexico, Jon Favreau taught Daniel Craig and me how to paddleboard on a lake. Daniel sank because he was too muscly, but my girl parts helped me balance!’
‘Jon gave me a board as a parting gift, and it’s become a lovely pastime – like surfing with training wheels,’ she continued.
The brunette beauty, who is engaged to Jason Sudeikis and has a two-month-old kid named Otis, also stated that she enjoys collecting blazers and small items.

Olivia Wilde describes ‘crazy’ n-ked scene with Daniel Craig
Even though Olivia Wilde was drenched in mud and filth while filming “Cowboys & Aliens,” shooting a totally naked scene in front of her co-star Daniel Craig was difficult.
Ella Swenson, played by the House actress, plays with Craig and Harrison Ford in the sci-fi Western picture.
Wilde recalled to MTV Movies: “It was kind of strange because I was half n-ked in front of a bunch of people, including the crew, a bunch of Apache warriors, a bunch of cowboys and Daniel Craig, who I had to stand in front of basically n-ked.
“[Craig] had to take a moment to sort of look me up and down before covering me in a blanket. And I was like, this is crazy.”
The 27-year-old beauty, on the other hand, didn’t mind the absence of make-up in the picture, which is about a man in 19th-century America who must fend off invading aliens, since it made it appear more real.
MTV News quoted her as saying: “We were literally dirty because we were riding all day long out in the desert, and you get very dirty. But the dirtier everybody looked, the hotter they looked. It was a really good look, I think.
“The people in the Old West were very dirty. The thing that’s unrealistic about our movie is all our teeth: We have good teeth; they didn’t have good teeth. So, logic police will call BS on that.”
Olivia’s persona Ella is spotted nude walking out of a fire, prompting Craig’s Jake to check on her.
‘I had to stand there being very unselfconscious because Ella has no awareness of her n-dity,’ Wilde told Metro.co.uk in an exclusive interview.
‘She doesn’t really understand why it’s offensive or shocking so she walks out of this fire and she’s n-ked. I couldn’t stand there holding myself in an anxious way.
Olviia added: ‘It was kind of a wild experience because Daniel has to stand there and look me up and down to check if I was real before covering me so that was a pretty intense moment.’
Because it is such a pivotal part in the film, she described filming the segment as a “honor.”
“It was really exciting because we knew we were creating something kind of spectacular in that scene,” Wilde said. “It was a really cool effect happening, as people will see.”
