MTV’s hottest VJ is moving on from Total Request Live for bigger and better things. She tells in her interview with People:

“I had my four years there like high school or college,” Minnillo, 26, said Tuesday at a benefit for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. “I’m ready for the next chapter – what it is, I have no idea. [But] I don’t want to be 48 saying, ‘Hey kids, now it’s Sean Preston Spears’s video.’ “

I’m sure we’ll be seeing alot more of her on the big screen, now that her schedule isn’t being tied up doing interviews with music celebs. Her first appearance will be in the Fantastic Four sequel, “Rise of the Silver Surfer”, in theaters this summer. And it won’t be long before Hollywood realizes that Vanessa is a box office draw like Jessica Alba.

Vanessa is just so easy on the eyes, I’m sure the next chapter in her life will be even better than the last.

Vanessa Minnillo has been a VJ on MTV long enough to known that she’s not allowed to use profanity on national television. But that didn’t stop her from dropping the F-bomb during MTV’s New Year’s Eve celebration. Can we all agree she had a little much too drink before she got in front of the cameras?

Imagine if this happened on Dick Clark’s Rockin’ New Year’s at Times Square. It might have given old Dick that final stroke Ryan Seacrest has been looking for, so that he can have his own rockin’ new year’s even bash. We all know that’s never going to happen though. Long live Dick Clark!

Vanessa Minnillo is one of the most successful American television personality’s on TV. Much of her success comes from the fact that she’s not only a great host, but she’s a delight to look at as well. I’m sure we all agree right? Vanessa has always been a champ when it comes to beauty, in 1998 she won the coveted Miss Teen USA Crown.

ET decided to place Vanessa undercover in a fat suit, braces and special effects makeup to see how “ugly” people were treated differently from “pretty” ones. The transformation turned her into a real-life Ugly Betty. The seven-part series, will place her on the streets of New York City, where hidden cameras will document the public’s reaction to the the “blonde bombshell Vanessa” and the “chubby girl-next-door Vanessa.”

She couldn’t believe the reactions she got from the public just for being overweight. While walking down the steps of a NYC subway in the ugly suit, a girl remarked “Who mugged your ‘do?” “I can’t do it, that girl was so mean,” Vanessa says. “It’s almost like an accepted form of discrimination because she can laugh at me, and that hurts.”

We’ll be seeing alot more of Vanessa Minnillo soon. The MTV VJ’s celebrity status has skyrocketted ever since she started dating 98 Degree’s lead singer Nick Lachey. The newfound fame has managed to put her on the bigscreen as Silver Surfer’s new hottie in Fantastic Four 2: Rise of the Silver Surfer.

Let’s all hope she can act, and not just be another pretty face alongside Jessica Alba! Of course, we wouldn’t complain if that’s the case though.

Everyone is calling Nich Lachey the luckiest man in the world. Why? First he scored with hottie Jessica Simpson, and now his current girl, Vanessa Minnillo is on the cover of Maxim magazine. Does life really get any better? Vanessa is a former Miss Teen USA, and currently VJs on MTV.
