(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Jessica Lowndes has a "lingerie addiction" because wearing it makes her feel more attractive.

The 22-year-old Canadian actress has earned herself an army of adoring fans thanks to her portrayal of Adrianna Tate-Duncan on hit US television series 90210.

Jessica isn't afraid of embracing her sexuality, and has posed for the British edition of FHM magazine, where she reveals her obsession with impractical underwear.

"I have a lingerie addiction, so walking in to see all this underwear laid out is like walking into lingerie heaven, it's great," she laughed.

"I have three drawers full of lingerie at home and I have already been lingerie shopping in London even though I should be going out and buying more practical clothes.

"I just can't help myself, it makes me feel pretty and sexy."

As well as appreciating the UK's style scene, Jessica admits she can't resist the famous British sense of humour. She has explored the UK thoroughly, and has been left baffled by the way people sit outside bars in the daytime.

"I love travelling, I think you learn so much from discovering the history of different places, so I always try to use our three-month hiatus from 90210 to see the world," she enthused.

"Mind you, the last two years I have ended up in the UK. I just can't get enough.

"I've been to Bristol and Windsor and my friends have taken me to lot of different places in London, but I want to do more.

"I want to explore places like Edinburgh. I love your architecture, your muesli and your dry sense of humour. But I still can't get over the fact you all sit at little picnic tables outside pubs in broad daylight. What's that about?"

The gorgeous star also took the time to discuss her musical career. Jessica has been busy working on her debut album, which she cannot wait to unleash.

"I want my first album to be perfect so I have shunned signing a deal in favour of working with lots of different producers. It's going really well, too. I've written over 40 songs and hope to have my first single out this summer," she explained. (C) Cover Media
