Oh. Then where'd the pics and vids come from?
Sometimes ya gotta wonder.

She needs a nude love scene. I want a peep.

No.
She has never done gratuitous nudity!

I wonder if her willingness to do nude scenes might also work against her being taken as seriously as her contemporaries.

I find this thread odd, as I would certainly take her seriously as an actress. She hasn't really had a defining role yet, but the sad honest truth is that Hollywood seems to make fewer of those roles for women, and turn to whatever the current A-list is to fill them.
I would strongly suspect Seyfried will have a very long and varied career.

Yep. Her career has certainly been a mixed bag in terms of subject matter, quality, and level of production. In any case: I couldn't agree more - it's only up from here for Amanda.

Yes plus she's very versatile (she can do musicals, thrillers, horror films, fantasy, musicals) and makes right choices, so Amanda has got a bright future ahead of her. Luv this lady.

Well Amanda still looks like she's in her early 20s, which may be why she's often cast younger.

Eh, actresses are playing ingenue roles well into their 30's today. Regardless of how ageist Hollywood, the modern actress can still have an ingenue/starlet image at 29/30. Actually, Hollywood (and even modern society) encourages putting maturity off much longer these days, and I think that is part of the reason Amanda might be struggling to transition. I think she has shown dramatic chops, but it is trickier to transition into mature roles nowadays, even for male actors her age.
There are few things as fetching as a bruised ego on a beautiful angel.
