There’s a reason we all love AMERICA’S SWEETHEART™. Sure, she’s stunningly gorgeous, but who knew the most in-demand Hollywood star could be so relatable? She makes everyone feel like they’re her best friend, because she charms the pants off even the biggest studio curmudgeon. But only her tight circle of friends, like FIRST LADY™ and EARTH ANGEL™, know her real hopes and dreams. Her quick wit and self-deprecating humor make her a favorite guest on the late-night circuit. Underneath her pretty, sparkly exterior, though, is a keen intellect—she’s law school-trained to make sure her contracts serve her well. After all, the girl-next-door donates millions to her hometown, taking care of the people who helped her become a star.
