A top NFL Draft pick from USC thinks Rashida should be in Maxim's upcoming Hot 100 list.
Maxim: '09 NFL Draftees Hot 100 Picks: Taylor Swift, Rashida Jones, and...Oprah Winfrey?!
MARK SANCHEZFOX Sports Mock Draft Position:
"Taylor Swift has got to be in there. What about the girl from Heroes, Hayden Panettiere? Then, that girl who is the face of Estee Lauder, Hilary Rhoda. And, as a dark horse, I'd pick—do you watch The Office? Remember Jim's girlfriend after Pam before they got back together? She is in I Love You, Man. Yes, Rashida Jones. Beautiful! I could be the general manager if you guys need help, just call me up!"

NEW MOVIE?
Rashida might be in a movie coming out next week; she's not on the IMDb cast list but blogger b-lot-buzz has a film review that mentions her being in it. It says she has a small role as a privileged housewife but there could be different versions of the movie floating around.
Anyway, here's some details... Life in Flight is a New York-set drama starring Patrick Wilson and Amy Smart. It originally premiered at last year's Tribeca Film Festival and will have a limited release in cinemas starting May 6, 2009.
