Jessica Biel, who played the role of Mary in the popular television series “7th Heaven,” caused quite a stir when she posed semi-nude for Gear magazine.

The pictures got her in trouble with her TV boss, Aaron Spelling. However, Biel is now back from a year studying at Tufts University and is beginning her final full season on the WB drama, which premiered on September 24.

She is also starring in the new baseball comedy “Summer Catch.”

In an interview with EW.com, she spoke openly about her college plans and the infamous cheesecake photos.

In “Summer Catch,” Biel plays a privileged girl who is torn between pleasing her parents and herself.

This was a conflict that Biel could relate to.

She said, “What I like about her is that even though she doesn’t want to disappoint her parents and she sees her father’s trying to do what’s best for her, she’s a young woman and she needs to make decisions for herself.”

Biel’s pictures in Gear caused her family a great deal of distress.

She stated that she was not happy with those pictures and was shocked that the pictures that ran in the magazine were different from the ones she saw.

She said that her family was heartbroken about the pictures that ran.

However, she has made peace with the situation and said, “It’s over now, and I’m okay with it, and my family knows that that’s never ever going to happen again.”

Biel had to mend fences with everyone at the WB and the series itself. However, it was a difficult process, and the photo shoot was a bad decision on her part.

She said, “I got myself involved with people who weren’t thinking about me and were instead thinking about what kind of a story they could get out of it.”

She also said that the experience taught her a lot, and she doesn’t look back on it negatively anymore.

There was speculation that Biel was trying to get fired by appearing too sexy to play Mary.

However, Biel said that she just wanted to cut her hair and dye it a different color.

She said, “I was 17 years old and totally rebellious, so I was just like, ‘What do you mean I can’t dye my hair? You can’t tell me what to do!'”

She now views this as a poignant lesson and wants people to see her as a normal human being who makes mistakes.

Biel took a year off to attend Tufts University, but she decided to return to “7th Heaven” for one last year.

She said, “The thinking was that I wanted to be full time for one last year, make it the best year ever, and just enjoy it before I go back to school.”

Biel also confirmed that she would be back to make appearances in seasons seven and eight.

Despite her desire to finish school and pursue other acting opportunities, Biel said that she would consider returning to “7th Heaven” if the show continued past season eight.

She said, “If the show goes past season eight and they ask me if would want to be a part of it, I would love to.”

Biel hopes that people will see her as a normal person who has made mistakes.

She said, “I want people to see me as a really normal human being who screws up. Just like everybody else.”
