Where youve seen her:
On the little screen in
Frasier and
Guiding Light, on the big screen in
Road Trip and
Urban Legends: Final Cut, and in the movies
Valentine and
Legally Blonde.
Everyones a comedian:
Im sitting with a director, and he asks me if I work out. I deadpan, Yeah, I lift men. You busy later? Total silence. There were tumbleweeds rolling across the room. I didnt get the part.
Her personal Love Boat:
On her life as a cruise ship entertainer, Jessica says, I sampled the employment flesh. I probably dated everybody on that boat. I was going through my search-and-destroy phase.
But what if weve got a foot fetish?
On-screen love is so technical. The whole time youre doing it, theyre telling you, OK, tilt your head to the left. Put his hand under your right breast. Meanwhile, youre thinking about the candy bar youre going to grab when its all over. Its as passionate as picking your toes.
