I was crushed when Pushing Daisies was canceled. I loved the show. And I have to admit that when they showed the last three episodes of the show I didn’t watch them. I wanted to leave the show the last way I remembered. And now I seem to see the cast every where. Anna Friel is in a photo spread for the August 2009 issue of UK Glamour.,  I love the photo shoot they did with her.

She is starring in the movie, Land of the Lost, with Will Ferrell, and she said that she struggled with playing the sexy assistant. She decided that her favorite part of her body, that she thinks is sexy, is her legs.

“I personally think my legs are better than my boobs. I was a little worried at first, but in the end, the general consensus was to go with the legs. I was relieved because all the original sketches showed my character with a little shirt tied barely an inch above my midriff. All in all, I’d rather show my legs than my tummy. I find that sexier, and fortunately the director agreed.”

Anna also says she feels the pressure to stay thin in Hollywood these days.

“You do have to stay slim, and you can’t make excuses. Looking good is a serious business and you have to make a decision to go along with it or else you’re just not going to get the work. In the beginning, I had such an awful time that I just wanted to run back home. But, looking back today, I’m glad I stuck it out. I never aspired to be the pretty girl because, if that’s all you’re known for, then you’re going to have a pretty short career.”

I think she looks great. I don’t know what she is worrying about.
