Jessica Biel In Allure: My Beauty "Really Is A Problem"

Jessica Biel graces the June cover of Allure magazine, and inside she talks about boyfriend Justin Timberlake, marriage, and the cons of being so hot.

Biel, 27 says she wants a career like Scarlett Johansson and Natalie Portman, and that she struggles to get desirable parts:

"I'm in there with everybody else, fighting for the good parts. Yes, 'The Illusionist' has made a difference -- but a huge, massive difference, so I can pick and choose what I want? No."

She continues, "I just want an opportunity. If you don't like the audition, don't hire me! But if you don't want to even see me -- that's hurtful. And why? You know nothing about me!"

So are her good looks hurting? "It really is a problem," she says. "I have to be blunt."

As for her personal life, she isn't sure about marriage. "I have no idea if I want to get married. I have a lot to do, career-wise."

And she talks about dating Timberlake. "I mean, you love who you love! It's not like you meet somebody one day and say, 'OK, I'm not going to put up with his fame!' or 'Yes, I am going to put up with his celebrity,'" she says. "You can't choose that. It just happens to you."

Halle - Oscar. Angelina - Oscar. Charlize - Oscar. Penelope - Oscar. Catherine Zeta Jones - Oscar. Two things every single one of these women has in spades over Jessica Biel, beauty and TALENT.

Ha ha ha ! Oh, yeah! That's her problem, alright. Yes, indeed. Yessiree, Bob. That explains it. Yup. Glad I don't have THAT problem.

[robbie]

If it helps, Jessica, I don't think you're that good looking

[evesjr]

shut up. please shut up.

I think she's a very attractive person, and is an OK actress. I don't think it's her beauty that's an obstacle to her acting career. There are many beautiful women out there who are aspiring actresses, but the ones who make it have to have beauty and some special quality as well. Juliette Binoche, Natalie Portman, are two that I can think of off the top of my head that have that something else, that charm or intelligence that make them interesting. Biel is pretty, but also very boring.

[GrainneKathleen]

boring on screen, yes, very

[sweetwhine]

Biel is attractive. She's far from pretty.

[zannamar]

boo hoo

[FrancescaM]

Hmm, without your pretty face you wouldn't be an "actress" (since you clearly can't act), you wouldn't be on a magazine cover and you wouldn't be dating JT, who will no doubt dump you as soon he finds someone prettier than you. You might be d.u.m.b enough to think you're surrounded by men who admire your tremedous talent though.

[sweetwhine]

I myself don't understand what these women see in JT.

Sweetwhine,

Nothing, absolutely nothing! She does have a great body, but her face looks like a man's!

[marysandra]

She looks like she has too many teeth. Maybe she thinks that's beautiful.

Holy crap sweetie, get over yourself. Some of us have real problems.

When you want to trade paychecks, give me a call.

After seeing The Illusionist, I have to admit she does have acting skills. What is discomforting about her, though, is that she was even more of a "great beauty" before she carved her face up with ridiculous and unnecessary plastic surgery. Now when I look at her, it's all I can see, so it doesn't matter how good her acting is.

[roquelaure]

Eh? What she have done? Looks the same to me.

[skunky93]

She denies it but if you look at her old pic's you can tell there are very slight changes..

[mypicasso]

Her acting really isn't that great.

[sysmgr1345]

Just be Miss Justin Timberlake for now. Keep him happy and successful. He rocks. Keep your fake discretion away from us...please...we live in the real world.

[mesoholy]

My beauty is a curse too. I have to wear a rain coat whenever I go out in public so that guys won't drool all over me!

[fame]

I remember when she had normal lips.

[ConnectFour]

Her real problem is that she has no acting skills.

[ByersL]

She's really cute but beauty? Not sure about that one.

[huntunseasun]

Thank you. I was about to post the same thing. NOT a beauty at all. Maybe that's her REAL problem.
