Girl Crush of the Week: Alexis Bledel

I've always had a soft spot for this lovely young lady. She played Rory Gilmore in the WB/CW's smash hit Gilmore Girls, she shared a magical pair of pants with her three best friends in the Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants movies and she falls in love with an immortal boy in her first movie, Tuck Everlasting. This weeks Girl Crush is the blue eyed beauty Alexis Bledel.
Born in Houston, Texas, Kimberly Alexis Bledel began modeling all over the world at a young age before going to NYU where she studied as a film major. In 2000, at her first audition, she won the roll as the quiet, yet fast talking, smart Rory Gilmore. She met her then boyfriend, Milo Ventimiglia, whom she dated until 2006. She plays Lena Kaligaris in two of my favorite chick flicks, The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants and it's 2008 sequel. This summer she stars in Post Grad, a movie I can't wait to see, playing a college graduate who moves back in with her wacky family while searching for a job. Check out the trailer here.
Sorry this one kind of sucked, I was rushing.

May be wrong, but don't believe she graduated from NYU. She went there for a little while before she got the GG audition.

Omg I miss Gilmore Girls SO much. I love Alexis Bledel. Also, you didn't mention her gorgeous blue eyes in Sin City!!

I hope Post Grad is awesome, so we can see more of her.
