Boy band JLS have told Sky News that scenes from their new 3D film had to be cut as they were deemed too raunchy for young fans.
Speaking at the premiere of Eyes Wide Open, band-member Oritse Williams said: "We worked with a great director, Ben Winston, and he literally went on tour with us and went everywhere with us.
"The shower, the bathroom... there was stuff we obviously had to cut out but you're going to see a very exposed JLS, shall we say."
The group - who rose to fame through the X Factor, are the first UK band to have a 3D film and it will be screened in a selection of cinemas for one day only on June 3.
"We wanted it to be like an event. Obviously this is like a concert movie and we wanted it to be like you were going to a concert.
"So we thought one day across 300 cinemas across the country and it's now nearly sold out," Marvin Humes said.
3D concert movies are becoming an increasing trend, with American stars Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers and Justin Bieber all releasing films in the past few years.
Bieber's Never Say Never was a box office hit in February and made £60m worldwide.
JLS laughed off suggestions that they are copying the teen star.
Fellow band-mate JB Gill said: "We were producing ours before his came out. We didn't even know he was doing it until he announced it was going into cinemas.
"It was just one of the things in a long list that we wanted to do."
JLS have already bagged four number one singles, four MOBO's and two Brit awards - making them one of the UK's biggest boy bands.
They are currently working on a third album and planning a summer tour. Asked if they had ever considered playing at Glastonbury, the band joked: "We'd have to find a tent big enough for us first".
