I have added scans from “Men’s Health Best Life” magazine into our gallery, thanks to the wonderful JPFAN. The images are awesome (one of my fave Jaime shoots) and it’s a cute article about keeping the romance alive after baby. Click on the thumbnails to be taken to the gallery album.

I have added some scans into the gallery – including scans from “Flaunt” and “Parade” magazines this year. I want to thank JPFAN for sending in some of the rare scans, they’re very awesome, so be nice and leave them here. Click on the thumbnails to check out all the latest scans!

Thanks to the lovelies at the fan board for the information, Jaime is the cover girl for BlackBook Magazine. Check out a preview picture and the article below. I’ll be adding scans as soon as I can pick up the magazine.

Her rise to the A-list may have come as a surprise to those who think of her as the quintessential Maxim girl in Daisy Dukes. Stinson Carter, however, reveals the smarts and talent hidden behind that sassy gal named “Joy” who millions of beer-swilling viewers know on a first-name basis. “Pass the Pinot, please.”

“The brash side is all anybody wants to show,” says Jaime Pressly. “You know why I haven’t volunteered personal information to reporters? Because I know they don’t give a damn; they want to keep me where they have me.”

Where she is on our first interview is inside her house. It isn’t an Airstream. Jaime Pressly answers the door of her Mediterranean revival home in the North San Fernando Valley, holding an English Bulldog and a Boxer by their couture-designer collars. Her around-the-house-casual zippered jacket and drawstring pants give her the look of an off-duty model, and the heavily teased hair she sports on “My Name Is Earl” is pinned back with the easy elegance of a Hepburn, not a hardware store pin-up girl.

Jaime attended an event last night in Hollywood. Read about it below:

It was all about giving back to their community, as the biggest names in show business gathered tonight for the sixth annual “Night Before” party to benefit the Motion Picture & Television Fund (MPTF). This year’s event raised $6 million, bringing the total amount of money raised since the event’s inception to an impressive $31 million. The event is held every year the night before the Academy Awards®.

The roster of celebrities attending the Night Before benefit brought out the world’s biggest stars from film, television, music and sports. Seen at this year’s party were: George Clooney, Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes, Kate Beckinsale, Steven Spielberg & Kate Capshaw, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Aniston, Harrison Ford & Calista Flockhart, Ben Stiller, Jake Gyllenhaal, Will & Jada Pinkett Smith, Don Cheadle, Orlando Bloom, David & Courtney Cox Arquette, Donald Sutherland, Casey Affleck, Tommy Lee Jones, Elton John, Spike Lee, James McAvoy, Robert Duvall, Christian Slater, Heather Locklear, Tilda Swinton, Ron Howard, Warren Beatty, Josh Duhamel & Fergie, Tobey Maguire, Matt Dillon, Tom Hanks & Rita Wilson, George Lopez, Christina Applegate, Cher, Jaime Pressly, Meg Ryan and Josh Hartnett.

There is a nice blurb from My Name Is Earl creator Greg Garcia about the show and even a joke about Jaime. Check it out below:

Greg Garcia, the creator and show runner of “My Name Is Earl,” is a very funny man. But he’s not playing.

His network, NBC, and studio, 20th Century Fox Television, have told him they would like to air as many new episodes of his single-camera comedy as possible by May 15. At best, that would be nine episodes — and Garcia is going to give it his best shot. How did he spend Monday, his first day back in the office?

“I want to have a table read a week from Tuesday and start shooting two weeks from tomorrow. We had two first drafts of scripts [before the strike], so I’m going to read over those and see where we’re at because I haven’t even looked at them. I’m going to look at some other stuff to see what we have left in the way of stories. But the majority of my day will be figuring out the schedule, booking out directors, talking to casting — to hopefully get all the scheduling stuff out of the way so when the writers come on Wednesday, I can concentrate on the writing.”

First thing, though: “I’m having a very specific no-talk-about-the-strike policy at work,” he said.

And what happens if there’s a slip? “That’s all I’ve heard about for the last three months. And now it’s over. I’m not going to sit and listen to them talk about it now. If you say the word ‘strike’ and you’re not talking about bowling, you’re fired.”

One potential crisis: If “My Name Is Earl” begins shooting in two weeks, will star Jason Lee have enough time to grow back his mustache? Lee typically shaves it on hiatus.

“The hardest part is that [costar] Jaime [Pressly] has to shave her mustache because she lets it grow,” Garcia continued. “That’s going to be the hardest part. I think she’s grown attached to it too.”

In Step With…Jaime Pressly
By James Brady, PARADE, February 10, 2008

This is the very first actress I have ever interviewed while she was driving through the local car wash. But I quickly learned that blond, beautiful Jaime Pressly, the Emmy Award-winning star of the hit NBC series My Name Is Earl, has a style of her own.

I began by asking Jaime about her little boy, just 10 months old. Why is his name Dezi? “His father is Cuban,” Jaime told me, “and he always mimics how Desi Arnaz greeted Lucy: ‘Hi, honey. I’m home.’ So we named our son for Desi but changed the spelling. He’s almost crawling and is the most animated child. Really, Mr. Personality.”

Growing up in small-town North Carolina, Jaime was a competitive gymnast and dancer as a kid. By 15, she was modeling in Japan and Italy—without a chaperone! “I traveled alone, but there were all these other models,” she said. “I was the youngest, so they all sort of protected me.”

Later, Jaime moved to L.A. and began to get small TV and movie jobs. But it’s her current series that Jaime considers her breakthrough role. “Earl is so important to me,” she said. “I was supposed to be in only a few episodes, but they let me get my teeth into it. Then it was, ‘You’re scoring with the audience. We’re going to have you in every episode.’ The Emmy has changed everyone’s perception of me.”

Her role models? “Goldie Hawn, the smartest dumb blonde in America,” Jaime said. “Shirley Mac­Laine, because she was a dancer too, and Katharine Hepburn. Hollywood blackballed her because her movies didn’t sell. So she went back to New York, did The Philadelphia Story on Broadway, bought the rights and, at age 32, made the movie. And it was a smash hit. I like that.”

Brady’s Bits
Jaime Pressly knows how to make a buck. In addition to her hit TV series, she has a colorful new memoir out in May and a role in the animated film Horton Hears a Who!, opening next month. She also has a fashion label she calls J’aime, a play on her own name and the French phrase for “I love.” “We just showed our new line for spring,” she said proudly. Then there are Jaime’s real estate interests: “Every two years or so, I move, buy a new house,” she said. “Not because I am looking for perfection but because I love real estate. I’ve done very well.” And after the car wash, where was Jaime headed? “I’m en route to meet with the director and producer of a really great movie.”
Personal
Born July 30, 1977, in Kinston, N.C. One son, Dezi, with partner Eric Calvo.

Why You Know Her
She plays the smart-mouthed ex-wife Joy on My Name Is Earl. Before that, she was in films like Joe Dirt and Can’t Hardly Wait.

What You Don’t Know
She was legally emancipated from her parents as a teen but says, “It wasn’t a Macaulay Culkin thing. It was because of child-labor laws.
