TAKING IT ALL OFF: Former "The Nanny" regular Madeline Zima says doing her first love scene ever in an upcoming episode of Showtime's "Californication" series opposite David Duchovny was "a little strange, but once I was actually there in the buff, it was all business. David's very professional." The 21-year-old actress plays Mia, a Lolita-like fan-borderline-stalker of Duchovny's character, Hank Moody — a troubled novelist whose obsessions with sex and drugs interfere with his personal and professional lives — in the series debuting tonight (8/13)."I worked out like a madwoman for that scene," she adds, "because you can't really hide anything on camera, but it was something I was looking forward to in a way. I don't think there's any way to be false when you're naked. You have to really be committed."

Zima says her character "is definitely not a cliche'd teenager. She's very smart and strong and ambitious. It's a fun role to do because she's so different from me because she's sort of a wild card. She grew up without a mom, and her father is a successful businessman always away on trips so she grew up without any real guidance. She's also wealthy, and like most teenagers with a lot of money and not much discipline, she does pretty much whatever she wants without much consequence. It's both challenging and exciting to play because you never know what she's going to do next."
