TALK ABOUT RACHEL SHELLEY RACHEL SHELLEY PHOTOS

• Rachel never wears a perfume
• She lives in Notting Hill, London, when she's not shooting
• The most beautiful smile on earth
• She gets irritated when people accuse her of bleaching her teeth.
• The lipsync video up on Youtube of "Run" by Snow Patrol was done in private fun. When her friend uploaded it to YT, they argued about it and he took it down. It was copied and reuploaded out of sync. So, Rachel said since people were going to watch it anyway, they may as well watch it in sync, so she had her friend re-upload the original.
• She thinks Beyonce' is super talented and gorgeous. When asked who she'd like to play Rhett Butler to her Scarlett O'hara, in a remake of Gone With The Wind, she mentioned one of her fav actors, Robert Downey Jr., Brad Pitt and to spice it up, Beyonce' could play the alternate to Rhett and be "Rene' Butler".
