Jessica Biel is radiant at the Academy Awards!

IMTA alum Jessica Biel shined at last night's 81st Annual Academy Awards! She was a hit in an ivory silk duchesse satin Prada dress on the red carpet! The E! coverage Live From the Red Carpet commentators raved about Jessica, saying, "Jessica Biel also wore a light color...I am really partial to it. The big blowsy bow that is coming over and right in at the the waist...I think it is really architecturally interesting. It's striking. It's very dynamic and she stands out on the red carpet."

Jessica was outstanding on stage too as she spoke very elegantly before an estimated billion viewers worldwide and recapped her recent honor of hosting the Science and Technical Academy Awards. As E! online says,"A reigning Hollywood hottie always hosts the Sci-Tech Oscars, with Biel following in the footsteps of Jessica Alba, Scarlett Johansson and Charlize Theron."

Jessica competed at IMTA in 1994 where she debuted her acting, singing and dancing abilities. She signed with an agent and manager who helped her land the breakthrough role of Mary Camden on the beloved long-running WB series 7th Heaven. She has gone on to star in many major motion pictures such as I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, The Illusionist, Stealth, Elizabethtown, Home of the Brave, Easy Virtue, Nailed, Powder Blue and Next.
