It is no secret that Vanessa Minnillo wants to become an actress. She was very verbal about the fact that she wanted to make the transition into acting. She got her first chance when she appeared in Fantastic Fourflick, 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer, and she loved it!. Now she was working at ET and MTV.
"When I was on the set of Fantastic Four, I loved it. I respected everyone's work ethic. It was like a mini-family, and I want to continue doing it, whether it's action or comedy or action-comedy. I can pull off physical comedy; I'm athletic enough not to get hurt easily," Minnillo tells Vegas Magazine.
"I got to do MTV for four years, ET for two years, then left to put my heart into other things for a while. I just love new experiences. I was an air-force brat that attended eight different schools in my first nine years of school, so I feel I can adjust to anything," she adds. "Acting is a different way to entertain people. Most people know how to be themselves in front of the camera, but interpreting a character takes a lot. Once I get the right role, I'll just feel it."
Minnillo is not taking any opportunity she gets though. She says that she's gotten offered some silly roles and she's passed cause she feels it's not right for her. "We've had some offers that we turned down because it wasn't me," she exclaims. "For one of them, I had to be this bikini terrorist and in another I was some crazy girl at Mardi Gras doing anything for beads!"
"Acting is something new for me, and you have to master this craft. It's not just something you jump into. That's why I took time off to be with my family--reap the fruits of my own labor," she explains. "I've worked two jobs all these years straight and I never got to stop and enjoy it."
There you have it folks! Expect to see Vanessa on the big screen some time soon. I wonder if her acting career will take off further than Jessica Simpson's has.

Many questioned whether the highly publicized couple would stay together after the loss but their recent vacation to Hawaii has put to rest any speculation of a potential breakup.
Jess and Tony arrived back in Los Angeles yesterday after a much-needed, very sexy Hawaiian vacation.
Joe Simpson must be thrilled!
Jessica isn't the first Hollywood hottie to hook up with a high profile sports player.
Victoria Beckham started the trend when she began dating soccer star David Beckham. Not long after, Jess' good friend Eva Longoria announced that she and basketball star Tony Parker were officially an item.
Following closely in their footsteps were Victoria's Secret models Gisele Bundchen and Adriana Lima who have stolen the hearts of New England Patriots QB Tom Brady (Gisele) and Minnesota Timberwolves guard Marko Jaric (Adriana).
Looks like dating sports players is the "in" thing for Hollywood women.
Who do you think is the hottest couple?
Keeley Hazell won The Sun’s Page 3 Idol contest in 2004 and has become one of Britain’s most sought-after glamour models, gracing the covers of Maxim, FHM, Loaded, and Zoo. She was also No. 19 on AskMen.com's Top 99 Most Desirable Women of 2007, and No. 13 on 2008's list.
Keeley Hazell reminded us once again why she's been the Official Wicked Chops Poker Girl for the last two years running and why she just may make a 32E-peat in 2008.
Only a few weeks into the year and already our favorite massively natural breasted Brit hottie is doing what she does best, posing half naked for photos, this time in ZOO Magazine. And according to her interview, Keeley is resolved to do even more photoshoots this year and says she is planning to release a book. The subject: her body.
It's this type of commitment to shamelessly appeal to our prurient interests with one hot photo spread after another that makes it virtually inconceivable for some other girl to come along and unseat Keeley Hazell from her pole position at Wicked Chops Poker this year. Still, all options are currently being considered as we pick the OWCPG of 2008, and we encourage you to submit suggestions, futile as they may seem.
If there's one thing we learned from Orel Hershiser being picked for NBC Heads-Up Poker and a frog riding a motorcycle, anything can happen. Anything.

Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi is continually winning countless fans for her performances on the big screen, but her singing effort at one of China's biggest televised events of the year has been widely panned.
The star of hit movies such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Memoirs of a Geisha" and "Hero" was one of the celebrities to line up at Wednesday's Lunar New Year gala show on national broadcaster CCTV.
Despite looking beautiful in a pink dress amid a stunning floral backdrop, her attempt to sing a specially composed song, "Fairy Scattering Flowers", was wide criticised for what appeared to be second-rate lip synching.
The state-run Xinhua news agency carried an 850-word article focusing on the the bitter reviews on Internet blogs and in newspapers for her seemingly out-of-time performance.
"Zhang came in for public criticism because she was an amateur singer who was not well-prepared and even forgot words," Xinhua said, citing an article in the Modern Express newspaper in eastern China's Jiangsu province.

"The article attributed her poor performance to 'a lack of experience'."
A copy of her gala appearance on Chinese Internet video-sharing website Tudou.com indeed appeared to indicate she was lip synching.
However the general director of the gala event, Chen Linchun, remained firm that Zhang's performance was genuine, according to Xinhua.
"(Her singing) was not broadcast from video," Xinhua quoted Chen as saying.
