In Mozart and the Whale, she plays therapist to an autistic Josh Hartnett. It’s just like when we role–play to spice things up in bed.
Now playing: A therapist who gets close to a young Josh Hartnett. (In a totally appropriate way.) “I get to wear nerdy glasses and be a normal person. The fact that I’m not playing a ‘sex girl’ is amazing,” Christa says.
Lurid detail: She started her career as the nonnaked friend/nurse/innocent bystander in Skinemax’s series Erotic Confessions. “I would hear stories that [the actors] would rip off their clothes and really try to go at it. I was freaked out by all that.”
You might remember her from… The Backstreet Boys’ “Never Break Your Heart” video. “If you have a band, never, ever name your band Kid or Boy, because you’re fucked! New Kids on the Block? You’re fucked.” She also played America’s favorite pinup girl in E! True Hollywood Story: Bettie Page. “It was hard-core, but it was hard-core with a smile. Like ‘Hee-hee, we’re girls and we’re having fun, but we’re whipping each other.’”
On putting it to her Relative Strangers producer Danny DeVito.“I’m an amazon next to him. I’m literally twice his size. How would sex be? It wouldn’t work out. I just don’t think it would even be possible.”
