Anna Friel thinks her legs are sexy.
The 'Land of the Lost' actress struggled to decide what her bes2000t physical assets were while preparing for her role as an attractive research assistant alongside funnyman Will Ferrell in the new movie, but eventually settled on her pins.
She said: "I personally think my legs are better than my boobs. I was a little worried at first, but in the end, the general consensus was to go with the legs. I was relieved because all the original sketches showed my character with a little shirt tied barely an inch above my midriff. All in all, I'd rather show my legs than my tummy. I find that sexier, and fortunately the director agreed."
However, the 33-year-old actress hasn't always considered herself attractive and admits she constantly feels under pressure to fit in with Hollywood's idea of beauty.
She said: "You do have to stay slim, and you can't make excuses. Looking good is a serious business and you have to make a decision to go along with it or else you're just not going to get the work. In the beginning, I had such an awful time that I just wanted to run back home. But, looking back today, I'm glad I stuck it out. I never aspired to be the pretty girl because, if that's all you're known for, then you're going to have a pretty short career."
ammmmm "never aspired to be the pretty girl.all your known as"
sorry but your not even that pretty and your voice is soooo irritating. Where does this shallow, barely talented ex-soap actress get the idea from that shes gods gift..what an idiot. -

Wow. Good job at completely misunderstanding what she was saying there. At no point does she say that she thinks she is pretty. In fact, all she says it that she never aspired to be. And certainly in no way or form says anything whatsoever to suggest that she thinks she's "God's gift". That was you that said that.
Reading comprehension is key.
