Orange Is The New Black is one of Netflix’s most successful shows on the platform.
The prison-based comedy-drama follows the life of Piper Chapman (played by Taylor Schilling) after she was sentenced to 15 months behind bars. Loyal fans of the show will remember how she assisted in a drug-smuggling operation ran by her ex-girlfriend Alex Vause (Laura Prepon).
It’s fair to say the seven-series show became known for its explicit sex scenes and violent outbursts as it gave fans an insight into prison life. But over the years countless actors have explained how uncomfortable it is to film these sexy scenes despite how they look on screen.

As the long-standing show celebrates its 11th anniversary since it first aired, Daily Star has taken a discovered one of the worst injuries sustained from a sex scene on the show. Back in 2015, Cosmopolitan sat down with Taylor and Laura ahead of the third series.

In the tell-all interview, the brunette beauty revealed how one spicy scene in the prison library left her co-star with a worrying scar. The couple could be seen throwing each other against bookcases, ravaging each other on the table before taking things to the floor.
Laura explained that despite working out the technicalities of the steamy scene, her co-star got hit in the face with her prison name tag. She recalled: “Naturally when you’re doing a love scene, especially a hate-love scene when you’re beating each other up and making love, you know, it’s an interesting dynamic.
“I mean one time she [Taylor] got caught in the face and there was blood on her cheek because her name tag came up and hit her face, it was a whole thing.” Taylor added that the injury was so bad that producers were forced to write in her scar for the whole series until it healed.

She added: “I got scratched and you can see that [in the scene]. It was awful. I gouged my chin with the tag and we had to just add the scar into the rest of the season.”
Thankfully the pair managed to laugh off the injury, but the blonde bombshell added that it was quite an awkward conversation when her family asked about her scar. It comes after Danielle Brooks, who played Tasha ‘Taystee’ Jefferson, weighed in on a possible reunion with her fellow co-stars in the future.
Loyal fans will remember that by the end of the show, Taystee is forced to serve a lifelong prison sentence after being wrongfully convicted of murdering correction officer Desi Piscatella (Brad William Henke). Speaking about a special anniversary episode, the actress admitted she would be “over the moon” for a reunion.

She told Pure Wow Entertainment: “It would be really cool to do [a reunion]. Maybe a ten-year catch-up or a twenty-year kind of spin-off or a limited series or something [along those lines]. I would be down to do it.”
Fans will have to stay tuned to see if a spin-off show is on the cards for the prison-based comedy show. Want all the biggest Showbiz and TV news straight to your inbox? Sign up for our free Daily Star Showbiz newsletter.
