Jolene Blalock

Where you’ve seen her:
In the miniseries Jason and the Argonauts and in TV series Diamond Hunters.

Surf bunny:
“I was a good surfer because we grew up a block from the water, and my father took us to the ocean the way other fathers take their kids to the park.”

Are you looking for an assistant?
“I love to work. You want to talk about natural highs? There’s nothing like it. It’s better than sex.”

Calling all crazed geniuses:
“I like men who are very cool but who are also so brilliant that they are almost insane. Sean Penn, Gary Oldman, Bob Dylan, Tom Waits—men who would be flipping burgers if they hadn’t found an outlet for their brilliant mind-sets. I also like men who have hands with big masculine veins that you can squish and move.”
