Bob, a shy and retiring man, needs to deliver a Big Speech to a Large Audience of Important People. Hilarity Ensues during rehearsals, until someone suggests that he imagine that the audience is au naturale. Basically a Stock Phrase, "If you're nervous, imagine the audience naked." A common variation of this is "Imagine the audience in their underwear." This trope is usually played with. Sometimes the viewers at home are shown what the character sees, usually in the underwear variety unless there's some handy scenery — sometimes they will wish they couldn't. Sometimes, there really will be someone naked or in their underwear. This is definitely not Truth in Television; if this isn't a Discredited Trope yet, it should be. The notion that such a visualization can ease the nerves that come with public speaking is nonsense, as explained in this editorial. In fact, assuming a speaker is actually capable of vividly calling forth this image under the stressful circumstances of speech delivery, this blog post does a good job of explaining why it might backfire, especially if you happen to be a young male student with attractive women in the audience. Most textbooks on the subject give advice that revolves around keeping the speaker focused on the actual content of the speech and successful delivery (such as imagining the audience giving a positive reaction to your speech or other performance), not something that would be pointlessly distracting. As a concept, telling someone with Performance Anxiety to imagine the audience in a state of undress likely comes from the idea that someone should try to think of their audience in a ridiculous circumstance so that they won't feel as subconscious about themselves. Of course, there are better ways to visualize this, if it works for you — such as picturing that your audience members are wearing funny clothing. Subtrope of Naked People Are Funny. Compare and contrast Unaccustomed as I Am to Public Speaking... |

In Blossom, Blossom is panicking over having to debate the captain of another school's debate team, until she takes this advice. She loses the debate on a technicality due to breaking an unspoken taboo about mentioning vomit, but is extremely pleased with her newfound confidence, nonetheless. The situation is subverted when Blossom's older brother is struck mute meeting a dozen Playboy Bunnies. When Blossom's eldest brother tells him to "picture them naked," the boy predictably faints from the overpoweringly sexy visual image. | |

Parodied in the second issue of the My Little Pony/Transformers: Friendship in Disguise! miniseries, where Pinkie has the Autobot Gauge as a guest on her cooking show and suggests she imagine everyone watching is in their underwear. Aside from the fact that most ponies don't wear clothes in the first place, humor is also found in Pinkie getting sidetracked by wondering if robots ever wear underwear. | |

In Coupling, Patrick's advice to Jeff that he imagine his bosses naked during a big presentation almost works; Trying it out the day before, Jeff sees a big boost in confidence, but at the presentation accidentally visualises himself naked in the full length body mirror behind the desk his bosses are sitting at. In fact, he practices this technique so much in preparation that it becomes an instinctive habit. Good fun when hanging around attractive ladies, not so much when attending a funeral with elderly relatives. |

Carla's trick on Cheers is to imagine the audience naked, but wearing black socks. Frasier, a licensed psychiatrist, initially scorns this idea, then gives it a try himself, finding it apparently works. Except when he tries it on Rebecca, causing the doc to break out in a cold sweat. | |

The Simpsons: In "Homer Defined", Homer becomes a hero after accidentally saving the power plant. When he's invited to give a speech about how he did it, he imagines the audience in their underwear, then shrieks and hides behind the podium because he imagined himself in his underwear, too. In "Weekend at Burnsie's", Homer is hired by Mr. Burns to help him write an important speech, due to the fact that at the time he was hired, Homer had been using medical marijuana and found everything funny. Since he was clean now, and no longer found Burns funny, Marge suggests Homer picture Mr. Burns naked, resulting in him screaming. Trying to make the situation better, she then changes it to picturing him in a funny hat. This idea is worse, causing Homer to curl up in a ball shuddering. |

Kirie suggests that she imagine everyone as vegetables, while Umaru says she should think about something she likes instead. These suggestions prompt Imagine Spots: Kirie's idea shows Ebina with a Growling Gut surrounded by food-headed classmates, while Umaru's shows Ebina even more nervous than usual because all the classmates are Umaru's brother Taihei, for whom she has feelings. | |

This is discussed in Missy Piggle-Wiggle and the Sticky-Fingers Cure. When Melody tells Missy that they have to give oral reports at school and she hates talking in front the class, the narration notes that most adults would suggest to her that on report day, she imagine her classmates sitting in their underwear, but Missy knew that wouldn't make a bit of difference. She instead has Melody practice with her and continue practicing repeatedly with her parents until she can walk into the classroom with confidence. | |

In Spider-Man (PS4), shortly before Officer Jefferson Davis is to be publicly awarded a medal of bravery by Mayor Norman Osborn, he contacts Spidey about his nerves for the expectation that he'll have to give a speech afterwards. Spidey initially suggests this trope, but then realises to his disgust that this would include picturing Osborn naked as well, so he drops the notion. | |

Four-year-old Prince Gareth suggests this to Beka in the third Beka Cooper book—his mother tells him to picture people in their loincloths during public functions. Beka is rather shocked since she doesn't think most people look good in that little and he admits it doesn't really work for him, he just pretends to make his mother happy. Later, he whispers the word "loincloths" when she's starting to freeze up during an elaborate royal ceremony, which makes her grin. | |

So he forces them, at gunpoint, to go sit on the toilet so that he can laugh at them and have the courage to say that 'No, he does not want to be reset to factory settings'. For some unaccountable reason they decide to do it anyway. | |

In The Zack Files, Zack is told to imagine himself in his underwear (his friend getting the advice wrong), which causes his pants, and any subsequent pants he tries to put on to disappear until he can confront his fear of not only giving a speech, but doing it in his underwear, too. | |

Her father Earl's friend Roy suggests that she overcome her fear by imagining the audience in their underwear. This causes Charlene to happily head toward the stage, but her father indignantly orders her to imagine the boys wearing pants. | |

Saturday Night Live Guest host Pam Anderson did an opening monologue where she said (paraphrased): "I'm really nervous. They say when you're nervous you're supposed to imagine the audience naked...that's not working. Maybe you're supposed to imagine yourself naked...no, that's not working, either. Oh wait, maybe you're supposed to really be naked! (takes off clothes) Oh yes, that's much better, I'm more relaxed now." (Full transcript here) SNL did this trope again on the season 36 episode hosted by Jon Hamm with musical guest Rihanna. In the Digital Short, "Ronnie and Clyde" (a Bonnie and Clyde parody-cum-music video with Rihanna as Clyde and Shy Ronnie [a redheaded, mumbling nerd played by Andy Samberg), Clyde urges Ronnie to be more assertive by imagining the hostages naked. It only succeeded in giving Ronnie a Raging Stiffie. |

In an episode of Home Improvement, Brad was about to appear on Tool Time and was suffering from stage fright. Heidi, who was played by Debbie Dunning, advised him to picture everyone in their underwear. For clarification; his boss's extremely attractive co-worker told a teenage boy to think about people in their underwear. Brad gets a sort of stunned look on his face while the audience laughs. There was also the episode "Look Who's Not Talking" when Jill was nervous about giving a speech and Tim tried to give her this advice, but she wasn't in the mood for it: |

In the episode "Oral Report", Sandy gives SpongeBob special goggles that let him see people in their underwear so he can get over his fear of speaking in public. Unfortunately, Patrick breaks them, which makes it seem as if the underwear comes to life and heckles SpongeBob. |

A similar case is in an episode of Salute Your Shorts where the group is putting on a play. Dina has bad stage fright, and Sponge advises her to picture a giant chicken at the back of the audience. On the day of the play, she begins to choke...then sees a chicken in the back of the room.
