Let's face it, whether you love her or hate her, Jessica Biel has a smile that'll make any man's heart melt, and a body that speaks for itself. Biel graces the cover of the new issue of GQ magazine. Here are some excerpts from the interview…
On being named Esquire magazine’s Sexiest Woman Alive in 2005:
“At first I felt really embarrassed about it. You know, it’s a weird thing to talk about. Like, ‘Hey, guys. Guess what?’ You don’t just go telling everybody that. But after I got over that, I just started to embrace it. I started thinking, If I ever do have kids, and if they have kids, I can tell them: ‘You know what? Your grandma in 2000-and-whatever was the Sexiest Woman Alive. How about that, kids?’ That’s what I started to think about. I’ll always have that picture to say, ‘That’s what Granny used to look like.’ ”
On finally being taken more seriously as an actress:
“I want choices. I want options. I want to lay out all the directions I could go and have the ability to choose. I’m slowly starting to have that now.”
On costarring with Adam Sandler and Kevin James in I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry:
“It was a little bit intimidating. I really admire Adam and Kevin, but then, I didn’t try to equal them or one-up them, and the character I created didn’t have to be that. She’s the straight woman, but very fun and very cool and just—attainable. That’s the kind of part that I’d like to play more. I mean, a vampire hunter? Is that really attainable? I’d just like to play something a little more quirky, interesting, outrageous. And uninhibited.”
