Looks like Jessica Biel has even more in common with her boyfriend, Justin Timberlake: She’s a recording artist.
The actress visited the NightBird recording studios at the Sunset Marquis Hotel on Oct. 9 to lay down a couple tracks.
Biel did “an amazing job,” a rep for the studios, Michelle Aselta, tells PEOPLE of the actress’s singing for her upcoming role in Easy Virtue, a remake of a 1928 Alfred Hitchcock film, costarring Colin Firth.
“Everyone at the studio said, ‘Some girls have everything,’” says studio Aselta. “Jessica Biel is dating a gorgeous guy, she’s a great actress - and she can sing.”
This isn’t her first time belting out a tune: As a kid, she did musicals like Annie and Beauty and the Beast.
So does Biel have pop stardom in her future?
“I’m not sure,” says Aselta, “but I’m sure dating Justin will probably have some influence in that!”

Though boyfriend Justin Timberlake swears there isn’t anything of the sort in the works, Jessica Biel says that she’d welcome a loving marriage and kids.
“You know, the actual idea of signing those papers and doing all this stuff about it, I’ve never been someone who’s like, ‘I have to, have to, have to have it,’” the 26-year-old actress says in the latest Harper’s Bazaar. “But the idea of being with somebody I care about, who’s my soul mate, that sounds groovy.”
As for becoming a mother someday, the actress says, “it’s something that I feel is a rite of passage as a woman.” If she eventually has children, she says she’ll aim for a balance between family and career.
“Why can’t I have both? Why can’t I have everything?” she adds.

She may still be “getting the lingo down,” but Jessica Biel’s foray into the blogoshpere was a success!
“I have been ‘Internet challenged’ long enough and am thrilled to join the tech revolution!” she writes as MySpace Celebrity’s featured icon, which posted Sunday.
She adds: “Plus, I only have four friends and am in dire need of more. Just kidding, I have six.” (Actually, she has three, according to her private profile.)
Most of all, she enjoys this way of expressing herself because it gives her “a perfect place to share some projects that I’m working on that I’m really excited about.”
Although she doesn’t dish on boyfriend Justin Timberlake, the busy actress - she has four films ready for release - says she’s a huge advocate of animal rights and reveals her dog, Tina, is sitting with her.
“She’s not really into blogging,” Biel says, referring to her dog.
Based on reader reaction, her “prayer for inspiration” worked: Fans proclaim their love and welcome her to MySpace, while wishing her good luck with everything in the comments section.
If Justin Timberlake has plans with wed girlfriend
Jessica Biel, he’s not sharing them on national
television. During a humorous interview on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno Tuesday, the singer denied that he was getting hitched when asked, point blank, by the talk show host. “Am I engaged? In what?” Timberlake asked, telling Leno, “I’m engaged in a conversation with you.” Timberlake also denied that he (or Biel) are expecting any children, joking with Leno, “I’m not pregnant.” Still, he shared his affection for Biel. When asked if he was dating her, Timberlake confirmed that it’s true to the applause of male audience members. Echoing their cheers, he added, “woo is right!”

Angeles. Once in the restaurant, the affectionate couple had a quick meal,
remaining very cute and loving, an onlooker reports.
• David and Victoria Beckham, lunching at the Sunset Towers in Los Angeles. Joined by
security guards, the footballer and his wife spent a few hours lounging by
the pool - and causing a scene thanks to their beefy security detail.
According to a source, Becks lunched on spaghetti and tomato sauce while his
wife opted for a salad. The couple ended their meal with a treat -for a fellow diner. A girl at the neighboring table couldn’t stop staring
at the Beckhams, so they went over, shook her hand and graciously took a
picture. Also at the Sunset Towers: Michael C. Hall, celebrating
his Peabody Award with his Dexter costar and girlfriend Jennifer Carpenter.
• Nicky Hilton, poking beau David Katzenberg and whispering in his ear during a night out at Foxtail in Los Angeles. At some points, Katzenberg would chat with friends who approached while Hilton remained patiently seated. Later, the designer danced in her seat to a Mya song, according to an onlooker, and laughed out loud with some friends who joined the couple.
