Amy Adams - One Smart Gorgeous Goofball
Marie Claire - UK|April 2016

From Hooters to the Oscars - Amy Adams' journey to the top deserves its own screenplay. She may profess to be ‘boring’ but serious talent, goofball charm and a badass wit have cemented her status as one of Hollywood’s most-loved leading ladies.

Amy Adams - One Smart Gorgeous Goofball

It’s raining in Los Angeles and Amy Adams is curled up on a sofa talking about breasts. More specifically, a perky pair belonging to one of her co-stars. Adams is something of an expert on the topic: her own decolletage having been on perilous display in American Hustle (for which she won her first Golden Globe in 2014). But the breasts she’s describing now are straightup distracting. The 41-year-old laughs as she tries to explain the mood on set whenever they came out. ‘In between shots it was like, “Put on a robe please, and make everyone feel less bad about themselves!”’

Disclaimer: the chest we’ve spent the last five minutes discussing doesn’t belong to a pneumatic, young ingenue but rather to Henry Cavill, the 32-year-old British man-brioche who stars as a yoked, hirsute Superman opposite Adams’ crackling Lois Lane in this month’s Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice – a follow-up to 2013’s Man Of Steel. ‘I objectified poor Henry,’ she smiles. ‘I had to apologise to him at one point. I’m like, “I promise I’m not that pervy.” He’s just so good to look at. My husband likes to look at him, our [five-year-old] daughter likes to look at him… we’re just a creepy family.’
