Brooklyn Decker: 'I'm a Model. I'm Not Sure What I Bring to the Table'

By Kiki Von Glinow Posted Jan 19th 2011 07:00PM

Brooklyn Decker is practically the reigning champ of 'Hollywood's Hottest' lists, but the model-turned-actress doesn't seem to be clued in on her own Hollywood buzz.

She's the star of Adam Sandler's new flick, 'Just Go With It,' but she isn't convinced that she can call herself an actress. "I'm a model. I'm not sure what I bring to the table...I can't say 'actress' unless someone says I'm halfway decent at it."

A form of severe self-deprecation? Maybe. But it seems as though Esquire's February cover girl isn't buying her own hype. Named after a horse (not the NYC borough), although we don't see an equine resemblance, one thing that Brooklyn does consider herself "halfway decent at" is giving advice on guys. After all, she snagged her tennis superstar hubby, Andy Roddick, when she was only 22-years-old.

According to Brooklyn, it's all about keeping it real and ditching the strategy of the "game."

"Men need to learn to put everything on the table," she explains. "Just put everything on the table. And when it comes to the game playing, enough."

Brooklyn certainly isn't playing any games when it comes to her career. From Sports Illustrated swimsuit model to silver screen starlet, Brooklyn is keen on learning from the pros; she flaunts the fact that co-star Nicole Kidman taught her how to look into the sun while filming. There's no doubt that Kidman's sage advice will come in hand when Brooklyn opens her eyes to Hollywood's bright lights.

Absolutely gorgeous, beautiful, sexy, and any other word that fits into that list. Go back to Christie Brinkly, or Kathy Ireland to find anything close to her.

Brooklyn: If you do not know what it is that you Bring to the Table, I am sure not going to tell you. But, I will discuss it with you,( if you feel that you want to talk about it ) in a Hot Tub with a Bottle of Dom and some French Desserts in a lovely setting that overlooks a Valley that leads to a Beach.

This may be an odd thing to say about a woman with such an incredible body but you should really check out those gorgeous EYES.
