Jessica Biel has long distanced herself from the infamous 2000 Gear spread in which she appeared virtually topless at age 17, claiming her former managers pressed her into posing.

(“I was humiliated,” Biel has said of the shoot.)

But Us Weekly has learned she’s set to flash more flesh in a new flick!

The actress, 25, signed a contract that explicitly details the bare minimum fans will see – including shots of her breasts (nipples from the front and side) and her butt (side view only) – in the Crash-like ensemble drama Powder Blue.

She plays a stripper trying to earn money to raise her terminally ill son in the currently-shooting movie, which costars Oscar winner Forest Whitaker.

A source tells Us the director will film scenes that are even MORE revealing, adding, “Jessica will decide if she wants to show anything additional.”

The news comes on the heels of Biel telling Australia’s Sunday Herald Sun that “I wouldn’t feel comfortable with the extent of the nudity in Monster’s Ball…I would be terrified of a role like that right now.”

What does a person’s signature say about them?

Usmagazine.com asked forensic handwriting expert Sheila Lowe, author of The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Handwriting Analysis, to analyze the autographs of Hollywood’s hottest stars.

First up? Justin Timberlake’s latest squeeze, Jessica Biel.

“Jessica Biel’s signature is open and uncomplicated,” Lowe tells Us. “She has nothing to hide, she’s proud of who she is and she’s not out to impress anyone.”

According to Lowe, the 26-year-old actress also sets high standards for herself.

“The large capitals in her name say that she’s got a strong ideal image that she wants to live up to, and the high-flying ‘I’ dots reflect the enthusiasm and imagination to succeed.”
