Christina Hendricks : I’m breaking a lot of my own rules by writing this post as we try to steer away from “hot chicks for hot chicks’ sake” galleries here unless they’re wearing Pikachu or Chun Li costumes or something, but I have to make an exception for Christina Hendricks. What can I say? The woman has magical powers.

Christina Hendricks : I also wrote this post because unlike the legions of supermodels and actresses out there who have done dozens of photoshoots over their careers, Hendricks has done relatively few, and therefore there ain’t a whole lot of professional pictures that exist of her outside of three or so magazines and a few awards ceremonies, and I wanted to put the best ones all in one place for your viewing pleasure.

Christina Hendricks : I’m hoping Maxim or Stuff or FHM will read this, and stop calling Heidi Montag and do shoots of a REAL woman like Hendricks, who is destroying notions of ideal body types with her logic-defying curves. Also, she needs more movie and TV roles outside of Mad Men.

Christina Hendricks : I’ve posted of some of these pictures because they’re obviously hot, but some are just funny, and some are from Firefly because well, Firefly is awesome.

Christina Hendricks began as a guest star on “Mad Men” — she was in only two scenes in the pilot — but her Joan Holloway (now Joan Harris) quickly became one of the most recognizable characters on AMC’s perpetually praised midcentury drama.

The role of Joan grew when the series creator Matthew Weiner became interested in the dynamic between Ms. Hendricks’s character and Elisabeth Moss’s striving Peggy Olson, Ms. Hendricks said in a phone interview this week. “It’s hard to imagine a Peggy without a Joan and a Joan without a Peggy,” she said.

Christina Hendricks took advantage of the longer-than-anticipated “Mad Men” hiatus this year, performing in a concert staging of Stephen Sondheim’s “Company” at Lincoln Center in April and in several movies. Two films, the thriller “Drive” and the light comedy “I Don’t Know How She Does It,” open on Friday.

Recently she has been back in “Mad Men” mode. The series resumed production last month, and on Sunday she’ll appear at the Emmy Awards, where for the second consecutive year she’s a nominee for best supporting actress in a drama.

Ms. Hendricks, who was in New York this week for the premiere of “I Don’t Know How She Does It,” called on the way to the airport to discuss her special Emmy date, that Wonder Woman rumor and how Joan’s distinctive style has bled into her own.

I Don’t Know How She Does It is about all the responsibilities that a modern-day working woman has to juggle, and nobody knows that sort of thing better than Christina Hendricks, who’s been busy promoting her co-starring roles in I Don’t Know How and Drive, which are both out this Friday. She’s also got plenty more on her plate since the fifth season of Mad Men just started shooting, and Hendricks segued to that immediately after finishing up a part in the comedy Struck by Lightning, which was scripted by Glee‘s Chris Colfer. Luckily, Vulture found some time to chat with Hendricks last night at the I Don’t Know How premiere, where she filled us in on her sweet Emmy plans.

Christina Hendricks, best known for her character Joan in the TV show Mad Men, has the porcelain skin, impeccable makeup, and phenomenal hair color that make you think, “I need to talk beauty with this woman.” I recently got this opportunity after meeting her (and seeing her incredible skin in person—it’s flawless) at a lunch kicking off the Latisse Wishes Challenge, for which she is the spokesperson. I asked the Emmy-nominated 36-year-old Prevention’s 5 DYA Questions. And it turns out, her secrets are actually just sticking to the basics: healthy facial skin care products and a great lipstick.

As Mad Men's Joan Harris, Christina Hendricks defines sexy with her razor-sharp tongue, fiery mane, and voluptuous figure. Prior to her sex-symbol status on AMC's hit series, Christina began her career as a model. She crossed over to TV with a four-episode spot on MTV's late-night show Undressed, but it was her role on the short-lived Joss Whedon series Firefly that gained her some real attention. And her career has truly taken off with Mad Men, now entering its fourth season (tune in this Sunday 10/9c on AMC). You'd be Mad to miss this girl in action.

If you consider her role as sassy femme fatale Joan Harris (née Holloway) on AMC’s hit series Mad Men, it only makes sense that the gorgeous Christina Hendricks is a fan, and user, of Latisse. After all, thick, sexy lashes were beauty staples of the 60s. Think Marilyn Monroe, the icon to which Christina’s character is often compared. But her relationship with Latisse goes beyond voluptuous lashes: Christina is actually the campaign ambassador for the Latisse Wishes Challenge.

Christina Hendricks has said, “I’ve always felt my lashes were short and thin, and in my profession I wear a lot of false lashes and makeup, which take a toll. So when Latisse became available, I was curious to learn more… Latisse is also a brand that contributes to children, and I couldn’t think of a better cause to support than the Make-a-Wish Foundation. When I was seven years old, I saw firsthand the difference a wish can make in the life of a child, when a girl in my class got her wish to meet Erik Estrada.” Being that the Make-a-Wish Foundation is 31 years old, both Christina Hendricks and the foundation have come a long way. What a perfect time to ask this fabulous actress our favorite question: “What’s on your Vanity Table?”

Christina Hendricks 35, who plays office bombshell Joan Holloway, has kept busy while show negotiations took place behind the scenes. In addition to filming two new movies, I Don’t Know How She Does It with Sarah Jessica Parker, and Drive with Ryan Gosling and Carrie Mulligan, she’s also teamed up with the Make-A-Wish Foundation and LATISSE to encourage women to help raise $500,000 so a wish can be granted in every Make-A-Wish chapter across the country.

Christina Hendricks made a splash in the first episode of “Mad Men,” running the secretarial pool with a firm hand and a tight dress. Since then her character has been in and out of the ad world and in and out of bed with Roger Sterling (John Slattery), while Hendricks herself has won two SAG Awards as part of the show’s ensemble cast, and watched the show take home the Emmy for Outstanding Drama Series three years running. She also landed Esquire’s 2010 Sexiest Woman in the World designation in a vote of the magazines female readers
