JESSICA Biel thinks she is “too boring” to be a great actress.

The Illusionist star — who is dogged by rumors that her relationship with Justin Timberlake is in trouble — believes she is too grounded and leads too much of a normal life for people to have a high professional opinion of her.

“I might just be way too boring to ever be a really great actress,” said Biel.

When told great actresses can having boring lives but great stars “kick up dust everywhere”, the actress told Vogue magazine, “I don’t do that. Maybe I should do a little bit more of that. A dust kicker-upper might be kind of fun.…”

Jessica also spoke out about posing near-naked for Gear magazine aged just 17, admitting she was “terribly embarrassed” about the pictures and her parents’ outrage.

“I really wanted to go to college, and it all kind of happened at the same time,” she said.” I did this photo shoot; the photo shoot came out; it was terribly embarrassing. I had to apologize to everybody, including my parents. It was a big learning experience: learning how to have boundaries and how to say no.”

As a result of her experiences as a child actress, Jessica, now 27, says she feels motherly towards other young stars.

“I have this overwhelming motherly feeling toward them,” she said. “Just do what you gotta do, girls! Hold it together! I wish everyone would just leave them alone.”
