Alexis Bledel
Alexis Bledel never planned to be an actor. To find out how she ended up in Hollywood--and how she keeps it real despite her growing fame--pick up the July issue of Seventeen! Check out exclusive photos of her here!
"I don't like drama, especially about petty things. I'm just left feeling like ewww, I don't need this headache right now, it's ridiculous! If you enjoy it, enjoy it, but I don't want to be a part of it."
"When I think back, I've been lucky--I've dated the most incredible people. I can't really think of one I'm embarrassed about. Every guy I've dated has had character and been a really nice person."
"I couldn't get into modeling as much I probably could with other jobs. You just stand there--it's not the most rewarding thing. A lot of work goes into a beautiful picture, but I crave a job that involves more mental work."
"Since I was shy in high school, I'd try to be around a guy I liked thinking I'd come up with something to say, but I never would. I'd just end up being quiet all the time and that was ultimately fairly embarrassing."
"I always had trouble talking to girls my own age--there was a lot of cattiness and two-facedness. Guys were always more straight-forward with me, which I appreciated."
 The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants starring Alexis Bledel opens in theaters now!
