Jessica Claire Biel is an American actress, model and singer. She began her
career as a vocalist appearing in musical productions until she was cast as Mary

thriller indie film Emanuel and the Truth about Fishes in 2013.
Biel landed her first feature film role as Peter Fonda's granddaughter in the
critically acclaimed drama Ulee's Gold, released in 1997. Her performance earned
her a Young Artist Award. In spring 1998, during a break from filming 7th
Heaven, she starred in I'll Be Home for Christmas, playing the love interest of
Jonathan Taylor Thomas.
Biel posed topless in the March 2000 issue of Gear. Producers of 7th Heaven were
outraged, and brought legal action against Gear. She later stated that she
regrets the Gear shoot but considers it a learning experience. In 2001, Biel
played the love interest of Freddie Prinze, Jr. in the baseball-themed film
Summer Catch. In 2002, she starred as promiscuous college student Lara in the
ensemble film The Rules of Attraction, an adaptation of the Bret Easton Ellis
novel. The movie received mixed reviews, became a box office hit and has since
gained a Cult following.
Biel was cast in her first top-billing role in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The
film met with negative reviews but it was a commercial success, scoring the
number-one spot in its opening week and going on to earn more than $80 million
in the U.S. In 2003, Biel began work on the third installment of the Blade film
series, Blade: Trinity. Despite negative reviews of the installment, it was a
box office hit grossing $150 million worldwide. Almost immediately after
finishing it in 2004, she headed to Australia to shoot the action-thriller
Stealth.
Biel also appeared in the 2004 film Cellular. Biel was cast in the role of Ellen
Kishmore in the romantic comedy Elizabethtown. She then played the title
character in the indie film London. In 2005, Esquire magazine named her the
"Sexiest Woman Alive" in a 2005 six-part series, with each month revealing a
different body part and clue to the woman's identity.
In 2006, Biel played a turn-of-the-century duchess in the period piece The
Illusionist, co-starring Edward Norton and Paul Giamatti. Biel played an Iraq
War veteran in the 2006 film Home of the Brave, a drama about soldiers
struggling to readjust to society after facing the hardships of war. In Next,
Biel played alongside Nicolas Cage and Julianne Moore. She then played in the
summer comedy, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, co-starring Adam Sandler and
Kevin James. In late 2007, Biel signed on to play a stripper in Powder Blue,
alongside Forest Whitaker (who also produced the film), Ray Liotta and Patrick
Swayze. In 2007, Stuff magazine's named her No. 1 on their "100 Sexiest Women".
 At the start of 2008, Biel shot Easy Virtue, an adaptation of the play by No�l
Coward. Like the play, the film is set in the 1920s and Biel plays young widow
Larita, who impulsively marries John Whittaker in France and must face her
disapproving in-laws on returning to England. The film premiered in September
2008 at the Toronto International Film Festival. Critics praised Biel for her
performance, with Todd McCarthy of Variety saying Biel "more than kept up" with
veterans Kristin Scott Thomas and Colin Firth and praising her "sparkling"
performance. The Hollywood Reporter described her performance as "an
irresistible force of nature � a kind, witty, supremely intelligent and
beautiful woman who ... is capable of rejoinders that thoroughly undercut her
opponent's withering criticism." Biel also performed two songs on the film's
soundtrack, "Mad About the Boy" and "When the Going Gets Tough".
In 2009, Biel lent her voice to the animated science fiction film Planet 51. In
April 2008, Biel began working on the political satire Nailed, with Jake
Gyllenhaal. The film centers around a woman who accidentally gets a nail lodged
in her head, then travels to Washington D.C. to fight for better health care.
Biel performed the role of Sarah Brown with the Los Angeles Philharmonic in a
fully staged concert production of Guys and Dolls during the 2009 season at the
Hollywood Bowl. On the last night, she received a rousing standing ovation from
17,000 people. She subsequently landed a part in Lincoln Center Theater's
two-week-long workshop of the musical version of the Pedro Almod�var classic
Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, along with Salma Hayek.
In 2010, Biel starred in the large ensemble cast film Valentine's Day and in the
A-Team, based on the television series as Capt. Charisa Sosa. In 2011, she
appeared in New Year's Eve, directed by Valentine's Day's Garry Marshall.
In 2012, she starred in the remake of the 1990 science fiction movie Total
Recall alongside Colin Farrell and Kate Beckinsale. She portrayed actress Vera
Miles in the biographical film Hitchcock, based on Stephen Rebello's book Alfred
Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho. She also appeared in Playing for Keeps with
Gerard Butler.
Biel starred in the thriller film Emanuel and the Truth About Fishes, which
premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on January 18, 2013.
Biel began dating singer and actor Justin Timberlake in January 2007. After four
years together, the couple announced their split in March 2011. However, by fall
2011, the couple reunited, and in late December 2011, Timberlake proposed to
Biel in the mountains of Jackson, Wyoming. The couple married on October 19,
2012, at the Borgo Egnazia resort in Fasano, Italy.
Jessica Biel's bikini body is certainly one of a kind. The future Mrs. Justin
Timberlake was seen hitting the beach in Puerto Rico over the weekend, and
though she was covered up on top, the 30-year-old actress left very little to
the imagination when it came to her bottoms.
Frolicking in and out the the water, a make-up free Biel was enjoying some much
needed down time before she begins promoting her latest project, Total Recall.
So, where was Timberlake, 31, during his gal's beach day? He was hard at work
shooting his latest movie, Runner, Runner. In fact, the whole reason Biel was in
Puerto Rico was to visit her man. Runner, Runner, which is expected to hit
theaters in 2013, is about a businessman who gets caught up in the world of
offshore online gaming. It also stars Ben Affleck and Prince of Persia actress
Gemma Arterton.
Biel and Timberlake, who have been dating on and off since 2007, got engaged
about six months ago, during the holidays.
