  • Emmy Rossum, with her dark, doe-like eyes, pale skin, and sheaf of chestnut hair coiled over one shoulder, doesn’t have to try too hard to be glamorous. Her red-carpet looks are generally given a thumbs up by critics, and more often than not she looks like a ’40s dame transplanted to present-day Hollywood.

    But, she says, women don’t need makeup and curls to be sexy. Having recently tapped into a different side of herself for her character on Shameless–Fiona–the actress and singer says she discovered some truths about female sexuality.

    “Women don’t have to be glamorous to be considered sexy. I think that was so eye-opening for me. For someone who doesn’t wear makeup or fancy clothes, I think that was for me really liberating in a way. You can raw. You can be aggressive. You can be vulnerable. And you can be sexy,” Rossum told Variety.

    Emmy Rossum and her Shameless co-stars hit the red carpet for awards season several times over the past couple of weeks, and the actress shared photos of the exciting events on Instagram looking plenty glamorous.
