Jessica Biel loved being the only female star in her new movie because she got all the male attention.

The sexy actress, who is dating pop heartthrob Justin Timberlake, was glad there was no female competition while filming 'I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry' with Adam Sandler and Kevin James.

She told Britain's OK! magazine: "You definitely get a lot of attention. All of the guys became my 'older brothers' - they picked on me every day! When you're the only girl there's no competition - you're just one of the guys."

Jessica, 25, also revealed she has to think twice before picking her nose in public, because she never knows whether there is a photographer waiting to take her picture.

The beauty said: "It just feels so violating. To walk out of my house in the morning with the dogs, someone's hiding behind the bush with a camera and someone's hiding over there with a camera and there's someone with a video camera and I'm thinking, is my underwear sticking out of my pants? If I reach back there will it look like I'm picking my wedgie? Don't pick your nose - just walk! It's like being stalked - but then fame is something you started yourself."

The stunning actress, who is dating Justin Timberlake, is not prepared to flash her flesh on film and admits she has been overlooked for roles because of her no nudity stance.

Jessica said: "I'm sure I've lost some roles because I don't do it. The other day I read a script that required some nudity, something topless. It's probably going to be a great movie but I just don't want to do it."

Although the 25-year-old actress refuses to bare her curves, she is happy to be thought of as a sex symbol.

Jessica - who starred in the remake of 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' and 'The Illusionist' - said: "It's extremely flattering to be thought of in that way. It's nice to be wanted and desired, you think, 'I'm being accepted as a woman now.' That's kind of cool."

Jessica was recently ranked number one in Stuff magazine's 100 Sexiest Women 2007.

Jessica Biel could never be a model - because she'd be desperate to scratch herself.

The stunning actress, who is dating pop heartthrob Justin Timberlake, hates posing for photo shoots because the poses she has to pull are so uncomfortable.

She told Parade magazine: "It's never nearly as sexy doing it as it appears in a magazine. You're sort of laughing through the photo shoot because it's funny to take yourself so seriously. I could never be a model because you're always standing in an awkward position and your back hurts, and you're wearing heels lying on a rock or in the sand or something. You're like, 'This is weird. I'm uncomfortable. I'm itching. I need to scratch.' "

Jessica has also revealed she is learning to cope with the paparazzi following her every move as she gets more famous.

She explained: "It's definitely difficult and sort of bizarre to deal with. You do really have to just get into a place where you feel Zen about it. You just have to take a deep breath and know that somebody is going to be taking your picture while you're picking up your dry cleaning. You don't understand why somebody cares but they're there. So you just go about your day and ignore them. That's the best way to deal with it."

Justin Timberlake's romance with Jessica Biel is getting so serious the actress flew into the U.K. to see the pop superstar on his European tour.

The couple were spotted out in Manchester, England, on Saturday holding hands and sharing intimate kisses while on a dinner date at high street restaurant chain Nandos.

They were joined by super-producer Timbaland and Manchester United soccer star Alan Smith.

"They're both doing everything they can to keep their relationship low-profile but when they're among friends they can hardly keep their hands off each other."

Actress Jessica Biel fears she isn't taken seriously by Hollywood studios, because she is too "hot". Jessica, who recently topped a magazine poll of the Sexiest Women in the World - claims her good looks have held her back.

But Biel - currently dating pop star Justin Timberlake - hopes the five films she will appear in in 2007 will help change people's minds.

"I hope all my new work will help producers in getting past my hotness."

"I try not to make the headlines. I'm self-conscious about this. I try to not make my presence known. I have my own fashion style and do not try to fit in. I don't have my breasts under my chin, I'm not showing butt cheeks, nor much legs. I don't go for the trendiest look."
