Ali larter r u bra winner i m

Actress Ali Larter was born and raised in Cherry Hill, N.J., and has settled in Tokyo, Miami, Milan, New York and Los Angeles. But home is where her folks are living -- and, for the last decade, that has been in Allentown.

''I get home about four times a year,'' says Larter, best known for playing the ferocious Niki Sanders on TV's ''Heroes.'' ''I'm there whenever I can be. When I have some time off, I run home.''

For Larter, Allentown is a nice change of pace from Los Angeles, where she has lived since landing ''Heroes.'' Back in the early 2000s, when she lived in Manhattan, she visited her folks once a month. Now, she's in the Lehigh Valley every few months and stays for as long as a week or two at a time.

''When I get home, I just sit on the deck at my parents' house and relax,'' says Larter, whose mother, Margaret, is a real estate agent for ReMax 100 Real Estate in Hanover Township, Northampton County, and whose father, Danforth, is vice president of sales and marketing at Dart Transit Co. ''I like looking at my parents' beautiful garden.

Ali Larter's 'Hot-Girl Syndrome'

The 32-year-old star revealed she was once told to lose weight by movie bosses but refused to conform to the idea of the perfect Hollywood body.

She said: "When I was shooting a movie once, the faxes went out from the producers and the director to my agents to my manager to call me and ask me to lose weight.

"I just remember sitting in my trailer hysterically crying from the embarrassment I felt about myself, my body - and that no one could talk to me directly.

"I'm an indulger, but then I have to be good. When I'm in really good shape, I like my butt. It's juicy."

However, Ali - who is engaged to actor Hayes MacArthur - admits she sometimes suffers from insecurity as she feels she is constantly judged on her looks.

She added to Allure magazine: "My fiance will always say to me, 'Please - you've got Hot-Girl Syndrome.'

"I think that's where insecurity comes from, because it starts with being celebrated for the way you look... and it's weird that it's something you did nothing to get."

Ali Larter Talks About Porn Star Pal

Ali Larter doesn’t kiss and tell.

Photos of the Heroes star casually chatting with adult film "legend" Ron Jeremy as he bared his, um... considerable asset... recently made the rounds on the internet, and OK! got to the bottom of the picture everybody’s talking about.

“It was an amazing time in my life, and that’s it,” Ali tells OK! at the American Women in Radio and Television’s Gracie Awards held at the Marriott Marquis in NYC.

The actress, 32, joins 55-year-old Ron in the cast for National Lampoon’s Homo Erectus, which hits theaters June 13. She plays a cavewoman; he, quite appropriately, plays a caveman.

This fall, Ali gets back to hanging with a classier crew when she returns for the third season of her hit sci-fi series.

“We’re going to do an hour catch-up show and we’re going to do a two-hour season premiere,” she says. “The scripts are better than ever. It is just so exciting for it to be back. The writers are like kids on a playground, just so inspired and showing it.”
