"What made you want to take on
the role?
Jessica: I wanted to do this movie because Robert Rodriguez was
directing it, first and foremost. I didn't really know it was a comic
book when I saw that he was directing something. I just tell my agents
every month, "What's Robert doing? I want to do something with him."
And one of my agents has a relationship with Robert and said, "You got
an opportunity." And I was like, "Excellent!" So I took that
opportunity and ran with it. I auditioned the old fashion way, went in
for the casting director, put myself on tape, and he had to approve.
And it was like a week of, "Does he think I suck?" Like I don't even
care if I get the role, I just don't want Robert to think I suck! And
he didn't think I sucked. And he came down, and I read with him, and at
that time I looked at the graphic novel and I saw the pictures. I then
found out she was a stripper, and she was bottomless and topless. You
know, nudity was an option. We could have done it if we wanted to..."

"How did you prepare physically
for the role?
Jessica: I went to strip clubs to see how strippers do it. I wanted a
choreographer, and Robert said, No. Just feel it. We're just going to
play music and you're just going to feel it."
