Vanessa Minnillo suffers from delusions of being an actress

**mrs.v** · February 15th, 2008, 10:05 AM

In the March issue of Vegas magazine, careerless starlet Vanessa Minnillo reveals that despite her much publicized relationship with Nick Lachey and her recent forays into acting, this ready-for-anything Miss Teen USA lives with no regrets.

Vanessa on her live-for-the-moment attitude: “One thing my dad instilled in me is don’t live with regret. So everything I want to do in life I’m going to jump into. Everyone thought I was crazy when I tried out for Miss Teen USA, because I’d never done pageants. I even thought I was crazy. But I won it, and that gave me every single opportunity I have today. I’m so glad I didn’t listen to everyone else and not do it.” Vanessa on taking her movie career seriously: “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.”
Vanessa on being in a position to pick and choose her roles: “We’ve had some offers that we turned down because it wasn’t me. 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!”
Vanessa on beau Nick Lachey: “The most supportive boyfriend ever!”

I don't even give a crap about Vanilla Manilla but the title was funny so I had to click.

Is she just spending Lachey's money now that she's been fired from TRL and ET (is that right)?

^^Per imdb, she played "Johnny's Wedding Date" in Rise of the Silver Surfer. So she's basically a movie extra.

OOooh. I love the bangles and sweater

... I don't like her though. lol

And those scripts she was sent seem... uh, interesting. I don't think she should hold out for anything better, I don't think it will come her way
