New Delhi: Actress Priyanka Chopra recently slayed the Billboard Music Awards with her hotness quotient. A blue slit backless dress and braided hair, which she donned, left everyone’s jaws on the floors.

While we are still reeling from that oh-so-hot appearance, Priyanka just did splashed hotness on not one but two International magazines, namely Emmy and Complex. The beauty has graced these two magazine covers. But, as we all know PeeCee goes further than impeccable exquisiteness. She owns a smart mind and a much smarter brain; both of which she perfectly used during her conversation to Complex.

During the conversation, the 33 year old actress was asked if she would like to be a Bond girl. She blatantly denied and expressed interest to be the first female Bond.

Priyanka said, “I get that all the time. But @*#% that, I wanna be Bond;”

when asked if she is trying to be the next hottie the detective romances.

This statement certifies that Priyanka wants the real deal, killing. And why not. Priyanka’s antagonist character in ‘Baywatch’ was initially written for a man. Also, now that actor Daniel Craig has had enough of James Bond, it is time we saw Jane Bond.

Priyanka’s amazing physique which she was so happily flaunting in ‘Quantico’, makes her fit the bill perfectly.

Her Jane Bond statement also suggests how hell bent our home-grown lady is to break stereotypes.

Mentioning forging new paths, Priyanka had something to say about it too. She said,

“I was very sure I did not want to be the stereotype of what Indian people are seen as, which is Bollywood, and henna. That’s all great! It’s what we are and I love it. I love saris. I love music. I love henna. I love dancing. But that’s not all we are.”

She added,

“There are so many Indian actors who have crossed over and have done a lot of work in the West, but they’ve always been made to speak like Apu [from The Simpsons]. I want to be able to break the stereotype of what Indian people or people of South Asian descent are supposed to be. Nobody’s supposed to be anything. You can be whoever you want. And I want young people to see that.”

When asked about how Indians are being seen in Hollywood and the involvement of many Indians in international projects, Priyanka said,

“I think global entertainment needs to become like that. It needs to be about the best person for the job rather than what you look like or where you come from. And I wanted to be one of the first people to take a step in that direction.”
