Scarlett Johansson, Halle Berry, Angelina Jolie and Jessica Biel have all been there, done that. Now, Kate Beckinsale covers it for Esquire. Here are snippets from her interview:
Kate on her early modeling days: "I was on the cover of Elegant Bride magazine when I think I actually cried. I was looking sort of misty, bridey eyed. It was mortifying. There I was, in my riot-grrrl feminist stage, with a puppy."
On being "the sexiest woman alive": "This whole notion of being named Sexiest Woman Alive is going to earn me quite a beating. You can't have that title with four brothers. I'll get wedgies. Headlocks. Noogies. If you're any kind of a human, you know the title is utterly ludicrous. But I like the idea of it, too. I do. I'm feeling that I must earn this. I need to go out and become much better at pole dancing or something"
On doing action films: "What's dangerous about doing action movies is that I'm used to men on wires. I punch a guy and he flies over a wall. So I tend to feel like that's me that did that. Which leads me to the fact that yes, I do think I could kick your ass. I know I can't, though. I do tend to walk around like a Chihuahua in my house. You know, one of those little dogs that sees the big dogs and starts giving them attitude? I'm a Chihuahua with the soul of a lion."
