Laura Prepon

Where you’ve seen her:
As the sassy but adorable girl next door on the FOX sitcom That ’70s Show, and kissing model James King in the upcoming indie flick Slackers.

Jersey girl:
“I love New Jersey. I’m fucking proud of being from Jersey, and I don’t give a shit what people say. And my mouth is not a sewer, although some people may think it is. I don’t even notice when I swear, so I don’t know how I’m going to tone it down.”

We’d like to see some redheads bond:
“I love being a redhead. It’s a rare thing, so I think there’s a bond between redheads.”

Choice pickings there:
“I never think of myself as any kind of sex symbol, but I get letters from all over, all sorts. It’s really cool. I get a lot from inmates, which is kind of scary. But the best was the guy who wanted to send me a plane ticket to fly me to his prom.”

Teach us!
“You can always turn a bad kisser into a good one. You just have to teach him how to do it right, and if he gets offended, then you have to say, ‘Dude, you don’t know how to fuckin’ kiss!’ But in a fun or playful way.”
