HEATHER ADVOCATES SEXY LOOKS

Heather Graham says It's fun to be sexy sometimes

The actress, best known for her sexy roles in "The Hangover" and "Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me,"says she's made a significant progress from her disgusting childhood days.

she added "When I was a kid I felt very nerdy and awkward and I feel like there is a part of me that is always going to feel like that even though I feel so flattered some people think that I am beautiful," .

Graham revealed that her beauty landed her in the film and entertainment industry.

she disclosed that she was never looking for Mr right but good sex

"To be honest, it's great and I think it gives me work opportunities but inside I feel totally normal. Sometimes I just want to get a part of the 'every woman' but people will be like oh we don't see you that way. But I'm like, 'that's what I'm like inside!'"

The 46-year-old said in the future, she hopes to do more directing and writing as she is set to make her first directorial debut for "Half-Magic" next year.

"I want to write and direct more. It's actually really fun to watch actors acting. If you're not acting and just sitting and watching them act, it's fun."

But for now, Graham stars as Mary in the new film "My Dead Boyfriend" along John Corbett. She loved the script and also related to her character in a way.

"I think I am quirky— I don't think I’m exactly like her but I can relate," she said. "I think she feels, she is in a place where she feels hopeless and nothing good is going to happen in her life.  I think she has a great sense of humor about things and that is one of the things I like about her."
