Jessica Biel was born March 3, 1982 in Ely, Minnesota. This striking beauty is one talented lady. When Jessica was a young girl she performed in musical theater. Jessica sang out ballads and starred in productions of "Annie," "The Sound of Music," and "Beauty and the Beast". Jessica's gorgeous good looks turned her career to modeling and commercials. Which eventually lead to her break out role on the WB's highest rated television show 7th Heaven. After playing Mary Camden on 7th Heaven, Jessica opted to pose semi-nude for Gear magazine while underage. It was time to rid herself of the good girl image and her contract with 7th Heaven's Aaron Spelling. Soon she had movie offers pouring in.
In 2000 Jessica attended Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts. But left before completing her degree to concentrate on her acting career. A smart move, since then she has appeared in a string of successful movies: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Cellular, Blade: Trinity, The Illusionist and Home of the Brave.
Esquire magazine named Jessica Biel the Sexiest Woman Alive in 2005, and she went on to star in the film Stealth with Jamie Foxx. In 2007, Jessica's career shows no signs of slowing down. She was awarded the Rising Star Award at the Palm Springs International Film Festival Gala Awards. Her movie career is in full throttle, staring in Next with Nicolas Cage and the comedy I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry with Adam Sandler. Jessica already has plans for 2008. She was cast in A Woman of No Importance as Hester Worsely. The role was initially going to Lindsay Lohan. Why anyone on earth would want Lohan over Biel baffles me.
Jessica Biel's is a huge supporter of PETA and GLAAD and Rebuilding Together. In 2006 Jessica even went so far as to auction herself off on a lunch date to raise money for the medical expenses of a teen in Colorado who lost her leg. The auction winner was Jon Schiffner, who paid a whopping $30,000. Now that's one helluva lunch. I hope he got a happy ending.
