Jessica Biel Starring in ‘Easy Virtue’
Jessica Biel has been cast as the female lead in the indie romantic comedy Easy Virtue for Endgame Entertainment and London’s Ealing Studios. Based on the Noel Coward play, Virtue is about an American divorcee (Biel) who travels to the South of France and impulsively marries a young wealthy Englishman (Ben Barnes). The couple then returns to England to face his disapproving parents (Colin Firth and Kristin Scott Thomas). Stephan Elliot (Eye of the Beholder, The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert) will direct from a screenplay he wrote with Sheridan Jobbins. Alfred Hitchcock did the first film adaptation of Coward’s 1924 play for a 1928 silent movie. Pre-production on Elliot’s version is set to begin next week in London. Biel appeared in last summer’s I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, and she recently wrapped Powder Blue with Forest Whitaker and A Woman of No Importance with Annette Bening.

She is so dyke looking! Nothing feminine about her! I just don’t see the appeal…the linebacker arms/shoulders….legs/hamstrings/ass of a male track star. I think her next job should be on the LWord.

She is not a beauty by any means. Her hair always looks dirty, she never smiles, and her body is so masculine.
I do not think she is a good actress at all. She should be in a romantic comedy as much as Hilary Swank. They just aren’t feminine really.

She can be pretty at times. I think she has the best celeb body out there though. I WISH I could have her body, it’s just perfect!

Jessica is a very cute girl with a rockin’ hot bod, but what is up with the white-pallor makeup? She used to have really great hair and her makeup was nice all the time. Why is she trying to downplay her looks? If I had what she had, I would be showing it off! (tastefully, of course) … Come on, Jes! You are too young and pretty to be looking like that!

Bad actress. Bad fashion sense. Bad sense of humor (if any). Bad beard for JT. Bad at covering up the fact that she is a dyke. All she really amounts to is a nice body who looks pretty at times yet never looks comfortable cuz she is still in the closet.

Ditto Cosmo. Her body is great. Very strong and fit.
