What do both Spanx and TV censorship have in common? Actress Viola Davis is a fan of both!

In a funny interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live this week, Davis revealed her feelings for those two very different things.

"I tell people that if I don't have ten minutes to go to the bathroom then I'm just going to have to hold it. Because that's how long it takes to take these Spanx off," Davis joked in the interview.

She went on to say the reason she wears the garments is so she can fit into the sexy clothes of her character on her new series How to Get Away With Murder.

Davis stars in the show as a sexy law professor who, along with her students, find themselves entangled in a murder plot.

This is also why The Help actress is in favor of TV censorship. The star told Kimmel she wears body makeup all over, even on her feet, to make herself look good on screen. Davis also admitted she doesn't like certain parts of her body to be shown, which is why she says TV censorship is another one of her favorites.  

We can't wait to see Davis back on the screen!

How to Get Away with Murder will air this Thursday night on ABC.
