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!”

I think she’s a really pretty girl, and she’s got a great body. She reminds me a lot of Jessica Alba though and I think Jess would be pissed if Vanessa started making a movie career for herself as I think Vanessa’s got a much better personality. I really like Nick Lachey, I think he seems like a nice, down to earth guy.
She should have done the bikini terrorist movie, I’m thinking. Work is work.
She looks great with her hair back, her body is nice too.
Wow! That’s a great cover shot. She looks really good. It will be interesting to see who ends up taking the bikini terrorist or the crazy Mardi Gras girl roles.
She looks really pretty.
Great personality? Hmm- if you like knife welding fame wannabes.
She is dull anyway. She should disappear.
Ever since she worked for Entertainment Tonight, I couldn’t stand her. I despised the way she couldn’t stop flirting with the camera when delivering her lines, just like that Lara on Insider. Their deliveries are very annoying.
She is HOT…
I think she is a pain the butt. I think she is totally fake. She and Nick deserve each other - both washed out —-
Those bracelets are fabulous.
she looks and sound like an ambitious lady, i wish her the best in acting. Just be smart and take the right roles and your are in for it
She finally got a job! I bet Nick is happy he doesn’t she can finally help pay her bills. She looks average to me but her face looks better in this pic-it’s usually really fat and round. Her personality seems really annoying and fake.
She is not that hot without makeup. Nick can do better. I’m sure the only role she will ever play is a bimbo.
