Actress Amanda Seyfried has revealed the unlikely technique she used while shooting sex scenes for the new porn star biopic Lovelace.

The Mamma Mia star appears in the movie as the adult film actress Linda Lovelace, who became a huge star after appearing in the notorious porn film Deep Throat.

And Seyfried told Vanity Fair magazine that although the sex scenes weren't easy, using a popsicle while filming intimate moments with her co-star Peter Sarsgaard, helped her see the funny side.

'We used a popsicle, and I had my arms covering the popsicle. It was footage that he was going to show the Deep Throat guy, to get her into the movie, to get her cast,' she said.

'I was laughing hysterically throughout,' she admitted. 'I couldn't stop laughing.'

The film focuses on Linda's relationship with her husband and manager Chuck Traynor - played by Sarsgaard - who controlled her life and coerced her into a career in porn.

And it provides a big contrast to Seyfried's other forthcoming screen role, as Cosette in the movie version of Les Miserables - which is due for release in January.

That film sees the 26-year-old starring alongside the likes of Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway and Hugh Jackman - whom she revealed shared her sense of humour, giving their characters' relationship a whole new dimension.

'We sexualised everything as much as we could,' Seyfriend said. 'It was really funny, the moments we could find...it's like every movie has another version, another satirical version of itself.'
