Believe it or not, 7th Heaven launched the career of several young Hollywood stars. The show was what made Jessica Biel into a household name. She took her fame from the show and became a model, a movie star, and the wife of one very attractive singer named Justin Timberlake.
She's easily one of the most recognizable people in Hollywood, but she tends to be very private when it comes to her personal life. But occasionally, she loves to discuss her relationship with Justin, how 7th Heaven changed her life, and how she's adjusting to being a mother. Here are a few things you should know about the lovely Jessica Biel.
1. Her first acting job was for a Pringles commercial when she was 11 years old.
2. She won a competition when she was 11.
It was held by International Modeling and Talent Association. That's where she learned how to walk down a runway, how to perform a dance routine, and how to do a monologue.
3. She got her big break at 14.
That's when she landed the role of Mary Camden on 7th Heaven.
The cast are still as close as ever. They often have reunions!
4. She said she was constantly apologizing on set.
She went through her rebellious teen years on set and had to apologize for her actions to the producer. "I cut my hair super short and dyed it blonde. I had to apologize to Aaron Spelling [the producer] for doing that. He wasn’t happy ... the show was all about family values, and they took that position seriously. I was always apologizing."
5. She had to leave 7th Heaven.
She wanted to prioritize her education.She attended Tufts University from 2000 to 20002.
6. Her first major movie role was in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
It was the right choice for Jessica because the movie went straight to number one at the box office.
7. She started dating Justin Timberlake in 2007, and the relationship got off to a weird start.
"We didn't kiss for a very long time because he was on tour, and we were talking on the phone, like normal pre-teens do," she said. "We were just chatting on the phone for hours. So, we never really kissed for a very long time."
8. She has evidence of the exact moment she knew JT was the one for her.
"I have this email that is really funny that I sent to my producing partner, Michelle, actually, and it's literally, like, 'OK, I can't make that meeting so I have to cancel, also I know I will marry this man, you can't tell anybody but your husband.'" She added, "I have no idea why I wrote that email. I don't know what he did that day, but I have this hilarious email."
9. The couple got married after five years of dating.
They got married in Italy with Jessica wearing a beautiful pink wedding dress. And that right there is the look of love on both of their faces. That's why they're the definition of #RelationshipGoals.
10. At the wedding, Justin serenaded her while she walked down the aisle.
I'm not crying, you're crying!
And now they're both parents to a beautiful baby boy named Silas.
11. Jessica is best friends with her 7th Heaven co-star Beverley Mitchell.
Bonus fact: Jessica played Beverley's older sister on the show, except Beverley was 14 months older than her! Whoa... try rewatching 7th Heaven with that interesting tidbit in mind.
12. After acting in several blockbuster movies, Jessica has decided to take her career in a new direction.
She's moved on to acting in indie movies.
13. She's also a restaurant owner.
The restaurant is called Au Fudge and she admitted that the restaurant business is tough. During an interview with Jimmy Kimmel, she revealed that her restaurant hadn't made any money yet, but she holds out hope for this to change soon. “[We’re] definitely not making money. Nobody’s making money in the restaurant business, in my experience, at least not yet.”
