Alexis Bledel: Houston, We Have a Solution!

Alexis Bledel: Houston, We Have a Solution!

Alexis Bledel poses with her Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 co-stars Blake Lively, America Ferrera and Amber Tamblyn at the MTV Times Square Studios during MTV’s Total Request Live in New York City on Monday.

Ms. Bledel, who turns 27 next month, is originally from Houston, and was raised by her Mexican mother Nanette and Argentine father, Martin.

With Spanish as her first language, she is hoping to land a role which can highlight her background. “I think it’s a little tricky because in the States, when they want a Latin actress, they want someone who looks sort of stereotypically Latin,” she says. “But I think I can get away with playing a Spanish or Argentine character. I really hope I get to do that someday.”

30+ pictures of Alexis Bledel and her Houston solution…

OMG! Jared you really LOVE Alexis now do you???!!!
YES!!!

I just love that Alexis is now HEADING the thread post and so not Blake. Good job JJ!

Alexis wears the simplest clothes yet appears AGAIN to be the PRETTIEST!
Better luck next again Blake…

parisgirl @ 08/08/2008 at 7:25 am

Can someone ask Amber Tamblyn to smile gotdamnit?
I love how Alexis doesn’t look like your typical latina girl, it’s interesting

What she’s turning 27?! She could passed up as a 17 yr old huh!

Thanks soo much Jared and thats becoz of Alexis again. She’s in New York for a long month working, so ask you’re peeps to follow her around - LOL! Well Im serious though…

Wow Alexis’s still beautiful! Like a natural, classic pretty, she’s taken well care of herself and has maintained a dignified beauty.

sparklene @ 08/08/2008 at 7:42 am

Absolutely gorgeous pics of that wonderful woman (who else but Alexis!). That deep inner smile on is getting her full beauty blooming so brightly.

You’re thread title is soo damn funny Jared. I’m overwhemed too that you’re beginning to take notice of my dear ole Gilmore chick. Well done!

@ #13

Alexis got a “European heritage” too like Spanish & German. And the latter two whom I think are the most visible on her physical features…

@ 18

SOO AGREE!

Id say its about time… Alexis soo amazing yet soo underrated..

I hope she get her role, cause she’s pretty girl.

IMO, Alexis never really looked “latina”. With her luminous features she’s more like of an “Irish descent”…

I had watched the TRL clip and Amber, America & Blake do ALL the talking while Alexis is just listening & staring. Funny yet cute, you still couldnt help not to NOTICE her…

I’ve said it before and I will say it again: this is Alexis chick is soo undeniable damn beautiful - and thats soo rare huh!

I prefer the outfit that Alexis wear at Good Morning America show. Its a purple dress. And Jared, how come you had missed that - LOL!

I love Alexis the most coz she’s not you’re typical Hollywood starlet who’s always on the tabloids. But then she’s in the news more often these days thats becoz she’s doing SOTP promos right! So its called work and so not media-whoring.
And I love you now too Jared!

FLAWLESS!!!
I hope Alexis takes care of herself & career, she has the perfect personality & structure to make it in the biz - work it out girl!

Whoa after seeing Kim Kardasskank pics earlier that got me puke, I’d say, I’m now on high w/o drugs after seeing Alexis post!

FINALLY! an celeb who’s got a rockin face and body is on here… Gracious Goodness!

their clothes are awful!

Oh my I thought I was dreaming coz it’s been RAINING Alexis these days. So please Alexis, DO GET OUT MORE OFTEN & SHOW US SOME MORE OF YOURSELF!
Thanks by the way JJ!

AGREE w/ everyone here that Alexis is indisputably & ridiculously beautiful.
I’m really running out of adjectives to describe how she looks - amazingly rare!

Alex is gorgeous. :)

Alexis is 27?? She look 18.. How gorgeous is she..

LOVE ALEXIS!
She’s my favorite. I’m happy to see she has so many fans! She’s definitely not the typical starlet. She’s very shy and doesn’t care much for the spotlight <333

She’s the best! More Alexis!!!

Alexis looks rather young for her age, which may have been why Millo Ventimiglia dated her…then he found out she wasn’t as young as he first thought or hoped, so he broke up with her and started dating then 17-y-old Hayden Pantylair.

Alexis looks like a brunnette Sarah Paxton. She’s average looking…the 5 head. America Ferrera is the most beautiful. Blake is more “sexy,” but not pretty, muchless beautiful.

#38 - That is the best explanation for Milo/Hayden that I have ever heard :)

And yeah, all four are good-looking, but Alexis is downright BEAUTIFUL.

Zazi, I agree about the Milo comment somewhat. Maybe it’s a control issue.

However, Alexis is gorgeous, and while beauty is subjective in each person’s eyes, I think the majority would agree that Alexis has more than just an average looking face. And technically, Sarah Paxton looks like Alexis, considering the latter was born first. Just saying …

I love all the girls, well, I love Amber, Alexis and America. Blake, I don’t dig much, but she is still beautiful. They all have their unique appeal.

Jared i think you got them confused, alexis, isnt mexican

#41, alexis’ mom is mexican. jared didn’t say alexis is mexican, though she is half.

Fantastic, Jared! Thanks for the Alexis highlight! It’s much appreciated!

Love Alexis! She is beautiful and seems really down to earth.

Wow this girl just take my breath away i like everything about her beautiful and talented

do you think they really all hate each other? especially blake lively, she looks like she hates them all…

I really hope she gets a part like that, and maybe Hollywood can start getting rid of those stupid stereotypes. She’s not “the typical latina” only according to those standards, cause actually not all latin american girls have dark skin and brown eyes.
Besides, I’ve always wanted to hear her speaking spanish. That would be fun!

Alexis makes (the late) “Audrey Hepburn” come alive for me. Really dig her. Thanks again JJ and keep em up!

Yeah yeah yeah Blake could be “hot” but thats becoz she’s flauting off her body too much huh! I rather be naturally beautiful (like Alexis) coz beauty last while hotness just fleets

@ Ms. Bledel, who turns 27 next month,

Say what?! She’s 27 already?!

It was Blake who looked like 27… and the oldest age I could think of Alexis is 21. So blame it on Alexis coz her youthful looks are soo deceiving - lol!

Alexis STILL rules & drools!

Thanks JJ!

Alexis is the FAIREST of them all! Actually she’s the ONLY celeb whom I find soo awesome & demure! W/ that personality, quite surreal thats she’s in Hollywood but I’m glad she is!

Thanks Jared, I will now visit your site as often as possible…

Oh please ENOUGH of Milo. They’re been off for more than 2 years already. I’m not really or never into w/ MV. Besides, I think Alexis would be better matched up w/ a much fairer & taller guy, say around 6 feet tall. Just let MV go on w/ his life w/ another midget like him - lol!

Its TEAM ALEXIS all the way and forever and evermore - lol!
I love how lately people have been making Alexis posts.
Thanks & keep up on the AB posting … ok!

Some people are so blessed with such extraordinary beauty & demeanor. Case in point – ALEXIS BLEDEL!

America has lost A LOT of weight. They all look the same size.

America has lost A LOT of weight. They all look the same size.

@ #50

Alexis has a great body & height but w/ a 16-18-year-old’s face. Which is actually pretty good if you ask me. Just imagine her being in her 40’s but she’ll end up looking like someone in her 20’s. I’d say great genes huh - Jealous!

I absolutely adore her as well! She always looks so naturally great. I am glad she is out more but definitely NO media hog in the making and just like to it on the down low side.
Love you to death Alexis and cant wait for your other movie to come out!

Jared got more pics of Blake but then, Alexis gets the TITLE POST (good move Jared)! So I’d say, “turn your back now Blake and push Alexis to the front coz it seems that BL is blocking AB for most of the time” - lol!

aww ALEXIS!!! shes so beautiful and talented!

Alexis is STILL alive, kicking & here to stay… YES!

She’s a kind of girl that you would gladly meeting up your parents. A total babe - just deserves more attention & recognition…

Alexis can surely get away with portraying an Argentinian girl. That’s where I’m from and lots of girls have features like hers in Argentina. The thing is, very few people look really “latino” over there, since most of the population is of European descent. Spain is different. Not a lot of natural blondes here, most people have darker skin and darker hair.
Anyway, I think she’s lovely and I hope her Spanish has an Argentinian accent.. that would be so cute!

Its nice to see a celeb who’s a hype / controversy / scandal FREE yet could gather 50+++ comments whom in general are all positive. So Very Nice!

@parisgirl:

actually, she does look like a typical latina. I am purely dominican and cuban, but i have very light features and am often mistaken for being caucasian. What she doesn’t look like is the media’s typical portrayal of a latina….
