Supermodel Kate Moss revealed that she does not feel comfortable taking her clothes during the shoots.

During an appearance on Megyn Kelly Today, the 44-year-old said she was constantly urged to pose topless after being discovered as a young teenager, reports pagesix.com.

She said: "Yes, there was pressure. I worked with a woman photographer called Corinne Day and she always liked me with no top on and I did not like it at all when I first started."

Moss, who featured nude in the iconic Calvin Klein Obsession perfume advertisement, feels uncomfortable with baring it all for the camera.

"I still always was like 'Can I just put some clothes on?' But, you know, that was the job, so I kind of just did it," she added.

Moss also has a piece of advice for aspriring models who might face similar pressure in future.

"They don't have to do it if they don't want to do it. I wouldn't let my daughter do it. I look at her now and she's 15, and to think that I was going topless at her age is crazy."
