Amy Adams says that she had to undergo pilates to get into her tight leather pants.

Los Angeles, July 11: Hollywood actress Amy Adams has revealed that she had to undergo pilates, a muscle controlling physical fitness system, to get into her "tight leather pants" for her role in ‘Night At the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian’.The 34-year-old plays the historic figure Amelia Earhart in the film and was given "extremely tight leather pants" to wear throughout the movie.

"The pants were like two sizes smaller and I had to do pilates to get into the outfit and look good in it," she said in a statement released here Friday. The outfit also became a distraction for her male co-stars in the film. "Hank (Azaria) would always make it a point to tell me ?nice pants` each time. And I would reply, ?They really hug you from behind. If it works, great, if not, I`m ok with it. But I think it`s working," she said. Also starring Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson and Robin Williamson, the film is releasing July 24 in India. IANS
