Just like she did with her breakthrough role in 2001’sMulholland Drive,Naomi Wattsmade quite the splash this week.

The actress, 54, appeared in a funny clip posted to the official account for Stripes — her menopause wellness brand — where she jumps right into a pool fully clothed.

“When you feel a hot flash coming on,” the video reads, before Watts books it into the water.

Wearing an orange sundress and black sunglasses, Watts made the leap into the pool while Florence and the Machine’s “Dog Days Are Over” played in the background. As she ran toward the pool, she had something of a wardrobe malfunction, but not enough to get in her way.

After she leaves the water soaking wet, Watts then laughs and holds up her dress with the caption, “You gotta do what you gotta do” pasted over the clip.

“What’s the craziest way you’ve ever cooled off during a hot flash,” the Instagram caption read.

Watts also recently took the dive into marriage, as she and fellow actorBilly Crudupwed in New York City in June, after being first romantically linked in 2017.

During a wellness event titled “Unlocking Intimacy: Navigating Passion in Midlife” this month, the actress opened up about her and Crudup’s “pretty great sex life,” as she explained that she feels sex has gotten better since she reached menopause.

“I personally think sex becomes more pleasurable when you take out the fear of making babies,” she said, per theDaily Mail. “What is that expression? ‘Closed for business, open for pleasure.’”

“It feels more, ‘I’m going to do this for myself.’ You’re more confident with yourself, you’ve had experience, you’re wiser, you’re not going to be all like, ‘Oh I want to turn the lights down,’ " Watts then added.

The actress added that now that she’s dealt with the hot flashes, mood swings and overall lead-up to menopause, things are looking up sexually. “Like whatever it is you’re going through, if you can talk to your partner, if you can be honest and have a really authentic conversation and take away the awkwardness, and most of the time if they’re good people, they will be empathetic,” she said, per theDaily Mail.

“And that’s hot — that’s really hot when you can be honest and the conversation lands really well to the point where, ‘Yeah, we got through the awkwardness and now like, let’s kick off some fun.'”
