Christina Hendricks poses before the Badgley Mischka Fall 2010 Fashion Show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Bryant Park on Tuesday (February 16) in New York City.

“We’re really spoiled on Mad Men. Lots of television actors use the down season to go out and get creatively fulfilled, but I feel the opposite,” Christina said. “Anything else I get to do is just icing.”

As for questions about her figure, she said, “It just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.” Christina continued, “Back when I was modeling, if someone said ‘I’m fasting,’ I would say, ‘Can’t we talk about something else?’”

She is Mad Men’s Joan Holloway and, as many of the show’s fans will tell you, she is one of the most divine creations on God’s flatscreen.

Mad Men, the third series of which is currently running on BBC2, is an American drama about the lives and loves of workers in an advertising agency in the early 1960s.
