Charlie Dayis reflecting on his extremely awkward first day withJennifer Anistonon the set ofHorrible Bosses.
Speaking withEntertainment Weeklyto promote the release ofThe Super Mario Galaxy Movie, Day, alongside co-starChris Pratt, was asked to review photos from previous on-screen roles. When it came to a scene from the 2011 comedy in which Day is bitten on the ear by Aniston, theIt's Always Sunny in Philadelphiastar joked it was actually a "private photograph" of the two together snapped by paparazzi.
In reality, the pic came from one of many scenes in the film in which Day's character, dental assistant Dale Arbus, is sexually harassed by boss Dr. Julia Harris, played by Aniston.
Day recounted one particular scene from the movie, which also starredJason BatemanandJason Sudeikis, in which Aniston's Dr. Harris uses revealing photos of Dale as blackmail.
"Our very first day of filming, we actually had to [shoot] the photographs that she bribes me with," Day recalled.
"That was like, 'Hi, how are you. Alright, pardon me, I'm going to take all of my clothes off.' I never felt pastier and doughier and just less attractive," he continued as Pratt laughed.
