Fans have pointed something out in a racy snap of Kristen Bell.
Yesterday (July 15), Dax Shepard took to Instagram to share a NSFW photo of his wife in a very uncompromising position.
In the photo the Frozen star, who has been married to Shepard for 11 years, appeared to be doing some kind of yoga and seemingly forgot her clothes. But fear not folks, Shepard edited a red box to cover Bell's dignity.
As to why Shepard shared the picture, it was an unusual way of celebrating Bell's recent Emmy nomination for her hit Netflix show Nobody Wants This. It landed on the streaming platform last year and has since earned itself an impressive 95 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes.

Bell is up for Best Actress in a Comedy Series her role in the popular show. Nobody Wants This is also up for Best Comedy Series and Bell's co-star Adam Brody has been nominated for Best Actor.
Shepard captioned the risqué photo of his film and TV star wife: "People might not know everything that happens behind the scenes in order to create an Emmy nominated performance like Kristen’s. This may or may not have been a part of her training, but it felt right. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!"
A lot of people have been shocked with the picture, Gwyneth Paltrow included. "Oh my God, Dax," she penned in the comment section.

While Bell is wearing very little in the now-viral photo, she isn't technically naked — something which many pointed out.
Somebody quipped: "The socks are very important because otherwise she would be naked!"
"The socks are the most important feature here," added another, as a third person echoed: "I completely understand why socks are important..."

A different person joked: "She covered her ankles like a true lady!"
"My 3 year old has the same style, grip socks so he doesn't slip in his birthday suit," laughed someone else.
With his wife's Emmy nomination in mind, you'd think Shepard would be invested in the Emmy Award ceremony when it takes place later this year. However, the same couldn't be said during the Golden Globes when Bell was up for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy Series as Shepard was spotted secretly watching a football game on his phone.

Bell jokingly berated her husband for this on social media. Sharing a snap of his cell wedged between his legs so he could watch the game, The Good Place star wrote '#priorities'.
