Adult film star Stormy Daniels is set to testify at Donald Trump's hush-money trial on Tuesday, but observers shouldn't expect any overly salacious details to be revealed.

As reported by Inner City Press's Matthew Russell Lee, prosecutor Susan Hoffinger informed Judge Juan Merchan on Tuesday that her team would ask Daniels about "the conversation [Trump and Daniels] had in the hotel and how the sexual act came about, how she felt about it" but then added that "we will not get into genitalia."

This is likely a reference to the disparaging remarks that Daniels made about Trump's genitalia in her 2018 tell-all book that included details about their sexual encounter.

Trump lawyer Susan Nechles objected to this information being introduced to the court, arguing that "there is no need for this" because "this is a case about books and records."

Merchan decided to allow it into record on the grounds that Daniels "has credibility issues, so details are important," according to Lee.

Writing at the New York Times' live blog of the trial, reporter Maggie Haberman noticed that Judge Merchan "strikingly seems a little nervous" while discussing this particular aspect of the trial.

Trump is currently on trial for falsifying business records related to his decision to pay off Daniels in 2016 in exchange for her silence about their past sexual encounter.

Prosecutors allege that Trump repaid former "fixer" Michael Cohen for paying off Daniels and then falsely labeled it as a "legal expense" in order to cover up what was really an illegal campaign contribution.
