It’s what I love about Drew Barrymore or Jennifer Aniston. I’ve watched them in films and I think, I love her. I would really want to be her friend. “I’d love it if people could think that about me. I can’t quite put my finger on (the quality they have), but I guess it’s not taking yourself so seriously.”

Oct 23 | Biel: ‘I’ve swapped Sneakers for Stilettos’

Actress Jessica Biel has creditted her burgeoning movie career with making her more “feminine”. The screen beauty began her career playing tomboy basketball star Mary Camden in 7th Heaven, and loved the similarities between her TV character and own sporty lifestyle. However, since finding fame on the silver screen, The Illusionist star has had to overhaul her rough and ready image. She says, “(Fame) has changed my style. I literally would wear jeans and sneakers and T-shirts – never wore anything feminine. I don’t know why. I’ve always been an athlete and I grew up in Colorado, in the mountains. “My mother wasn’t a fashionista nor did she teach me anything about clothes. It was all about outdoor activities, nature, sports, so yeah, that’s naturally who I am.”

And while pop superstar Timberlake was facing the opposite direction, the couple’s female friend copped a feel of Biel’s behind – and a picture of the moment has been published in American magazine Star. An onlooker tells the publication, “It looked like the friend reached over and squeezed Jessica’s butt while Justin was looking out at the field. “Jessica didn’t even flinch – but when Justin suddenly turned around, Jessica’s friend pulled her hand away.”

The 25-year-old is unsure if she ever wants to walk down the aisle. She says, “I don’t feel the need to settle down right now.

Oct 11 | Biel snubs party circuit

Hollywood actress Jessica Biel snubs the glitzy celebrity lifestyle for nights in at home – because she is too mature for the party scene. The screen beauty prefers to live like her tomboy character Mary Camden in TV show 7th Heaven, and hates the idea of being a partygirl like Lindsay Lohan. Biel – currently dating Justin Timberlake – says, “I don’t really go out. I’m such a homebody, it’s embarrassing. “But I feel I went through that stage in my late teens and sneaking into places here and there like everybody does. But when I turned 21 I just got over it. Got over the crowd, the expensive drinks and all of the people.”.
