NAME: Jessica Biel
DATE OF BIRTH: March 03, 1982
BIRTH PLACE: Ely, Minn.
OCCUPATION: Justin Timberlake's girlfriend
BIEL'S ATTEMPTS AT BECOMING A FACTOR:
1990s
Biel's Big Break
By age 9, Biel is already a regular on the Boulder, Colo. musical theatre circuit and a seasoned model. After appearing in ad campaigns for the apparel firm Limited Too, she makes her television debut appearance in a Pringles commercial. In 1994, she enters the International Modeling and Talent Association competition in L.A. and wins a scholarship to an acting school, Young Actors Space, where she is discovered by her first manager Jeff Morrone.
1996
Pilot Season
After three years of spring trips to L.A. for what is known as "pilot season," the time of year when potential new shows are hiring actors, 14-year-old Biel earns a spot on the Aaron Spelling-produced drama 7th Heaven. She plays Mary Camden, the oldest daughter of a suburban minister's five children.
1997
Onto the Silver Screen
Biel's first feature film Ulee's Gold puts her toe-to-toe with screen legend Peter Fonda. The film centers on a widowed, reclusive beekeeper (Fonda) taking care of his two young granddaughters, played by Biel and Vanessa Zima. Despite the strong start, Biel auditions, but is not called back, for the role of Jane in American Beauty (a role that went to Thora Birch). Biel later blames the slight on her squeaky-clean image as a preacher's daughter on 7th Heaven.
2000
Gearing Up
Biel poses topless with her arms placed over her breasts in a cover spread for men's magazine Gear. She curses wildly in the interview and proclaims her desire to have a fistfight with her 7th Heaven character. She also mentions that to get a rise out of one of her female costars, she frequently grabs the costar's breasts and says, "Look at the size of these things." It is widely reported that Biel strategically sought a raunchy magazine to get released from the Christian-themed show.
Back to School
After her Gear shoot causes a stir with Aaron Spelling, Biel's role on 7th Heaven is scaled down. Between guest spots on the show, Biel appears in the Freddie Prinze Jr. comedy Summer Catch and the drama The Rules of Attraction. During this time, she studies for three semesters at Tufts University in Massachusetts.
2003
Chainsaw Ka-Ching
The remake of cult classic The Texas Chainsaw Massacre brings in $28.1 million its opening weekend – the second-highest-grossing October release at that time. As Biel's first starring role, it proves she can headline a movie and bring home the popcorn.
2004
Raunchy Regrets
Four years after her controversial Gear photo spread, Biel asserts that she was taken advantage of and made a crucial mistake. "I wanted to please people, and I got in over my head," she tells the Boston Herald. "My family was humiliated and so upset. And my grandmother – my poor grandmother. I would love to take it back."
Action Woman
Biel stars in two action films, Blade: Trinity and Stealth, with the latter doing well at the box office. Biel works out six days every week for her role in Blade and continues training to portray her toned fighter pilot character in Stealth. "The machine that I used to shoot the ejection sequence made me sick everyday," she tells ABC News of her Stealth training. "This movie is a serious film, and I don't believe I was hired for my looks. But even this film has a scene with me in a bikini. That's how Hollywood works."
2005
Elizabethtown
In her first non-action movie role since Ulee's Gold, Biel has a small part opposite Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst in the Cameron Crowe film Elizabethtown. The film is panned at the Toronto Film Festival, but Biel is glad to have broken out of Stealth mode. "I was determined not to be Hollywood's new action chick," Biel tells the Orange County Register. "I have more to offer than that."
Esquire's Queen
Biel's celebrity status rises when Esquire magazine names her the Sexiest Woman Alive. "My brother teased me endlessly about that story," Biel recalls in an interview with the Allentown, Pa. newspaper The Morning Call. "He's 21, and when he read the article, he was just like, 'Eww. Whatever. You're not hot.' When I was reading about my 'luscious feet and toes,' I went, 'What? This is really embarrassing.' And, believe me, my friends gave me so much crap about that."
2006
The $30,000 Date
When Biel hears that a Colorado teen was critically injured in an auto accident, she auctions off a date with herself to raise money for the girl's care. The winning man shells out $30,000 to eat lunch with her. In September, she's honored with the Huntington's Disease Society's Hope Award for her charity work with Make the Difference Network, an organization she cofounded to raise awareness and help people donate money to different nonprofits.
A Magical Performance
The Illusionist, a psychological period piece about a magician and his young muse, is released. The action-film veteran bemoans her "modern" look, which she thinks limits her roles. "All you have to do is pin-cIMG my hair and put me in a gown, and I'll look different, but there's not a lot of imagination in this town," she tells Time. The Illusionist brings Biel closer to her goal of being taken seriously as a dramatic actress.
2007
Most Beautiful Sans Makeup
The Sexiest Woman Alive adds Most Beautiful to her list of accolades when she appears in PEOPLE's annual issue sans makeup. The actress says, "I don't wear a lot of makeup in my personal life…I find that men, in my past, have preferred me without it."
Jessica & Justin
Biel visits Timberlake in the U.K., where he is touring. They hole up in Manchester's five-star Lowery Hotel and take in a soccer match. She joins him on tour again in June, and the couple is photographed holding hands and sightseeing in Amsterdam and Stockholm. They were first linked at a Golden Globe afterparty in January and went snowboarding together at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah.
2009
More Than a Pretty Face
Biel, who stars in the period piece Easy Virtue, discusses her struggle to be seen as a serious actress in Allure, saying she yearns for meatier, more dramatic roles. "I just want an opportunity," she tells the magazine. "If you don't like the audition, then don't hire me. But if you don't even want to see me – that's hurtful." Biel adds that her good looks often are a drawback in castings. "It really is a problem."
2011
Breaking Point
After rumors of a romance with Mila Kunis surface, Timberlake and Biel look cozy together at an Oscar afterparty. But weeks later the couple announce the end of their nearly four-year relationship. "The two remain friends and continue to hold the highest level of love and respect for each other," their reps say in a statement.
Reunited & Engaged!
After spending five months apart, Biel reunites with Timberlake in Toronto before attending a friend's wedding together in Steamboat Springs, Colo. In the New Year, news of the couple's own wedding plans is leaked when a source tells PEOPLE Timberlake proposed to Biel while the duo vacationed in Montana.
It's her birthday after all — no death wishes today — I just hope she has an utterly unfulfilling birthday and Justin dumps her for good by her next one. Rumor has it Justin's hosting her birthday party on which they will finally announce their engagement.

Oh Jessica Biel, why must you be so perfect? Today Jessica turns 30 and it doesn’t look like she needs to make any birthday wishes. The girl’s got it all.
After kicking off her acting career at the age of 14 on 7th Heaven, she quickly strove to shed the show’s wholesome image and became a sex symbol in flicks like Summer Catch and The Rules of Attraction, before going for higher-minded fare, like 2006′s The Illusionist, opposite Edward Norton.
As if her cake needed cherries on top, Jess snagged Justin Timberlake in 2007.
Ms. Biel now totes a big ring on her finger, after JT’s grandmother confirmed the two have been engaged since December.
Jelz much?
Between movie roles and a crazy cute beau, Jessica manages to rock some serious fashion effortlessly, even if it is casual Thursday. JTimb’s isn’t the only one bringing sexy back, literally. Whether you want to admire Jessica’s subtle sexy wardrobe or how she’s managed to maintain such a fantastic physique, here’s 30 pics of the birthday girl through the years.

I don't believe Justin would respect your comments about his aging grandmother whom he loves dearly.
