Gabrielle Union

She's the sexy undercover agent busting up "Bad Boys 2." "Extra" sat down with gorgeous Gabrielle Union, who talked about her biggest role yet. She gets to call Martin Lawrence her brother and Will Smith her lover in the buddy-cop action flick.

She says, "I laughed for five months straight. They're constantly cracking on one another and on everyone else. And you have to be sharp and try to like stay in there."

So how did Gabirelle get in shape for the movie? She says, "Once I saw the wardrobe, I had to put the Krispy Kreme down and kind of get real with myself. I was in the gym two hours a day, five days a week. An hour of Pilates and an hour of cardio because I can't stop eating."

Gabrielle, a former all star athlete, looks like a slam-dunk for Hollywood. Her resume already includes starring roles in "Deliver Us From Eva" and "Cradle To the Grave" and even a guest spot on "Friends" as both Ross and Joey’s first African American love interest.

Gabrielle is even being compared to another brainy body beautiful; "Bond" girl Halle Berry. Union says, "You know the comparisons are nice but a little unrealistic for me. I mean Halle is Sammy Sosa and I’m the guy selling tickets to get in the parking lot. We're in a different league."

Don't be so sure, Gabby. Thanks to a couple of bad boys it looks like you're headed to the majors.
