A striptease. Depending on the tastefulness of the scene and the point in their career, it can either make or destroy an actor or actress. Because someone disrobing on camera has a tendency to do that. Can go all the way; use of Scenery Censor and other camera hiding techniques is optional; may be played for comedy or pure weapons-grade Fan Service. In the days of VHS rentals, this could cause technical difficulties, as that small section of the tape would get an inordinate amount of wear. If an unwilling subject is forced to disrobe, it falls rather into Shameful Strip.

| - A striptease. Depending on the tastefulness of the scene and the point in their career, it can either make or destroy an actor or actress. Because someone disrobing on camera has a tendency to do that. Can go all the way; use of Scenery Censor and other camera hiding techniques is optional; may be played for comedy or pure weapons-grade Fan Service. In the days of VHS rentals, this could cause technical difficulties, as that small section of the tape would get an inordinate amount of wear. The trope name comes from the 1972 song "(You Can) Leave Your Hat On" by Randy Newman. Sung by Joe Cocker in the movie 9½ Weeks, as well as covered by other singers. Made popular again by Tom Jones's version in The Full Monty. Made ridiculous by Troll 2. If an unwilling subject is forced to disrobe, it falls rather into Shameful Strip. Has nothing to do with Please Keep Your Hat On, despite being extremely similar in name. Examples of You Can Leave Your Hat On include:
