It’s been five years since Yvonne Strahovski first appeared as the sexy spySarah Walker on NBC’s cult favorite Chuck, and after its bittersweet finaleearlier this year, the sparkling Aussie export is ready to move on. She'll appear in nextfall’s highly anticipated Seth Rogen comedy My Mother’s Curse, butfirst we get to see a new side of her in a racy SoBe ad campaign in the new SportsIllustrated Swimsuit Edition that features the self-described tomboy covered innothing more than a bucket’s worth of paint. Here, she discusses moving on fromChuck, what it’s like having a complete stranger use your body as a canvas,and why men should never, ever shave their chest hair. Congratulations on Chuck. Are you sad that it’s over, or excitedto move on?The end was very bittersweet, but I think we’re allexcited to move on. There were a lot of tears on the last day of shooting, and I think Iwas the most pathetic one, although Zach [Levi] was in close contention with me. But it isexciting to move on. It finished at the right time. I think five years is a great run,especially in this day and age when you see so many shows go up and survive less than sixepisodes. Given that we were always on the bubble, it’s a great victory sharedamongst the cast, crew and fans -- especially the fans, because they were the ones thatgot us there. Talk to me about My Mother’s Curse,your upcoming comedy with Seth Rogen and Barbra Streisand. Itwas really exciting! I auditioned for that and got it, and it was great working withBarbra Streisand and Seth Rogen. I feellucky that I got to work with some of the big legends in town. What was it like working with Seth Rogen?His laugh is thegreatest thing ever. It’s so unique! He was very chill, and the dynamic betweenBarbra and Seth was great. I’m excited to see what they’re like on-screen.It’s a very cool combo.Why do you think so many Australians havefound success in Hollywood?I think most of us come from a trainingbackground, so we studied it, and we have a real sense of the art of it, and most of usare trained to do an American accent, which is something you definitely need. I think,especially for males, they tend to be quite rugged and scruffy, and I think the industryhere likes that kind of energy for their leading men.Let’s talkabout the photoshoot you did with SoBe that appears in the 2012 Sports IllustratedSwimsuit Edition.SoBe approached us, and I was immediatelyinterested because I’m a fan of their zero-calorie drinks, and I knew about Ashley Greene’scampaign, and I loved those photographs. I had never done anything like this before, so itwas the body painting aspect that got me interested in the first place. RELATEDVIDEO: 3 Things You Didn't Know About Yvonne Strahovski (http://askmen.com//video/celebs/905-yvonne-strahovski-video.html)Was it awkward having a complete stranger paint your naked body?It was a little. I woke up at midnight; that was my call time. And I had a bodypaint artist, Rodrigo from Costa Rica, who was kind enough to bring his mother along totry and make me feel more comfortable about the fact that I had a straight male body paintartist, and she didn’t speak any English, so that was pretty funny. You sort of getused to it after that many hours. You sort of think, "Who cares?" and it looks so real youfeel covered anyway. I really love the ways the photos turned out.Howdid your parents react?They were really cool, actually!
