To get into character, actors often need to learn new tricks or change their looks. For the Crank sequel, sexy actress Amy Smart had to go for pole-dancing lessons, and though it was weird at first, she eventually fell in love with the routine. Now she vows she will do it for a long time to come because it’s a great workout and because it keeps her boyfriend hooked to her!
She says, "It was sexually liberating and really fun. It takes a lot of work to make it look easy. It's really awkward in the beginning but I had fun. At one point, I wondered if I would ever pick it up. I loved my routine to Billy Squire's song 'Stroke Me'. That'll get you going on the pole!" .
Amy studied ballet about ten years before beginning her career displaying her natural good looks as a model of fashion. This California sixy girl got her acting start in TV-movies before appearing alongside Denise Richards in the guiltiest of pleasures, Starship Troopers.
Her breakthrough role came as the level-headed girlfriend of James Vanderbeek in Varsity Blues, with some help from friend, Heroes star and Babe of the Day alum Ali Larter.
