Mila Kunis Bans Her Dad From 'Black Swan' Sex Scenes

'I don't think any dad should see,' she tells MTV News. 'It's just not necessary.'

It seems the only thing anyone can talk about when it comes to "Black Swan" is the much-hyped sex scene between Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis. Even Kunis and her dad found themselves discussing the nitty-gritty details.

Their conversation amounted to this: Mr. Kunis was banned from watching the scenes in question.

"He was like, 'I don't think I should see the movie,' " Kunis told MTV News. "I was like, 'See the movie. There's going to be a point; get up and leave.' "

And so that's exactly what happened. When the no-holds-barred sex session came up — a scene Portman previously told us was "not explicit in any way," but which is undeniably steamy — Kunis gave her dad the signal, and off he went. "I don't think any dad should see. It's just not necessary," she explained.

While Kunis avoided some familial awkwardness in that situation, she's found it more than a little uncomfortable to constantly discuss the sex scene with the press. "Doing [the scene], you never judge your character, so you always have justification for it," the 27-year-old said. "When you do it, it makes sense while you're doing it. You don't feel like it's you doing it."

She added, "The more I talk about it, the more I have to think about it. We never discussed it. It was like the pink elephant in the room that was never touched upon until it was the day to shoot. Then we just did it really quickly and called it a day."

Check out everything we've got on "Black Swan."

Beyonce's Banned Perfume Ad Defended By Company

The spot is 'intended to reflect the singer Beyoncé's personal 'sexy chic' style,' says fragrance maker Coty.

Beyoncé's steamy new ad for her perfume, Heat, recently gathered some heat of its own from the U.K.'s Advertising Standards Authority — which banned the commercial from the country's daytime TV rotation because of its sexy imagery. Now the company that makes Heat is speaking out about the sanction brought against the ad, which features the singer in a skin-tight, hot-red satin minidress, touching herself and showing some skin.

In a statement from perfume maker Coty that was posted on AceShowbiz.com, the company notes that it doesn't think there's anything too explicit about the TV spot, maintaining that it is "intended to reflect the singer Beyoncé's personal 'sexy chic' style." And while Beyoncé's cleavage is exposed at certain parts of the commercial, Coty added that it's not "overtly graphic or explicitly sexual and at no point was Beyoncé naked."

The company continued, "It was aimed at a vast selection of music programs to target a young adult audience. It would therefore be consistent with the expectations of viewers of those sorts of programs."

In a statement posted on its website, the advertising watchdog said that it has received several complaints about the Jake Nava-directed spot, which initially was aired throughout the day during family programming and now only will be shown after 7:30 p.m. The organization said, "We considered that Beyoncé's body movements and the camera's prolonged focus on shots of her dress slipping away to partially expose her breasts created a sexually provocative ad that was unsuitable to be seen by young children."

Beyonce Jokes She's Been Pregnant With Concert Special

'I was pregnant with this DVD,' she laughs to MTV News as 'I Am ... World Tour' is set to air Thanksgiving Day on ABC.

Beyoncé never really seems to slow down, so when the time came to choose a director for her concert special DVD "I Am ... World Tour," the singer decided to take on those duties too. It's an accomplishment the singer jokes may have sparked those pregnancy rumors.

"I was pregnant with this DVD, yes!" she joked to MTV News.

The DVD hits stores on November 30, but fans can catch the 90-minute "I Am ... World Tour" TV special when it airs on ABC Thanksgiving night at 9:30 p.m. ET. Beyoncé opened up about what it was like to sit in the director's chair.

"Well, I've done some co-directing for music videos [but] this was definitely a big step for me, and I'm so thrilled," she said at the New York City screening for the flick.

Beyoncé said she was completely hands-on, deciding which moments made the final cut and which ones wound up on the cutting-room floor. "It was hard work," she said. "I learned so much. I have a new respect for directors and I think I would like to do more of it."

Her parents, Mathew and Tina Knowles, who also attended the screening over the weekend, said the film gives B the recognition she deserves after years of collaborating on many of her own videos.

"I'm really excited about this because Beyoncé has been making little short films and really helping to direct her videos," Tina told us. "So it's nice that she'll get credit for doing something that she really loves doing and that she's very talented at."

Dad Mathew recalled all of the effort his superstar daughter put into the special. "I'm so proud," he said. "I had an opportunity [to see the film], I've been to Houston with a screening; I've been to Bentonville, [Arkansas], with a screening, and to see the excitement from the audience, what an incredible job Beyoncé did as a director in the editing, I'm just so proud. Hopefully, all the fans go out and get the DVD and soundtrack and look at that ABC special coming on Thanksgiving."

PHOTOSHOOT FAB: Rocsi Diaz Gets Fab For Rob Ector Shoot

BET's Rocsi Diaz heated up her brand new photoshoot with celebrity photographer Rob Ector.  She shot it urbanesque style on the streets and in a warehouse building. 

 

Check out the pics when you read on...

 

The "106 & Park" VeeJay rocked her snug thigh high boots, short shorts, and a blazer with nothing underneath.

Probably not the best choice of boots, but I'm loving the choppy hair and makeup and realistic style of the shoot.

You feelin' it?

WHOA: Beyonce's "I Am...World Tour" DVD Goes DOUBLE Platinum In A WEEK!

Although it hasn't been on shelves for a full two-weeks, just 1 week to be exact, Beyonce's I Am...World Tour DVD/soundtrack is already double platinum.  Deets inside...

 

Making her directorial debut (this always cracks me up, she WAS the only one in the room when she was filming herself speak), Beyonce's I AM...WORLD TOUR full-length concert film/soundtrack has been certified double platinum after its initial release on Friday, November 26. The DVD now holds the #1 position on Nielsen SoundScan Music DVD chart and has already been certified platinum in Brazil too.  So chick has gone double platinum in a little over a week thanks to US and Brazilian sales.

Produced, directed and edited by Beyonce for her own Parkwood Pictures, the concert film weaves together concert and tour footage from 108 shows, 78 cities, 32 countries, on six continents all from her perspective.

And that's not the only thing Beyonce has to celebrate.  With her two 2011 Grammy nominations, Beyonce is now the most nominated female in Grammy history with 42 nods. And the third overall.  Say what you will, but this type of history (especially since we know how hard black females have it in this music game) is something to be applauded and respected at the very least.

Congrats B!

Pappy Knowles is somewhere patting himself (and new Baby Knowles) on the back for this one.  A Blu-ray version of Beyonce's I AM...WORLD TOUR will be available, Tuesday, December 7.  I have a feeling Bee-season is about to swarm again since she's been in the studio working away on a new album.  You ready?
