Melissa Rauch is ditching her nerd glasses and conservative attire for a sexy S&M-inspired photo shoot with Maxim. The Big Bang Theory actress amped up the sex appeal in the lingerie-clad spread and definitely seemed confident rocking a beaded corset.
And while her character Bernadette works at a Cheesecake Factory, it turns out that the True Blood babe has yet to step foot inside the eatery.
“I’ve actually never been! However, I am similar to Bernadette in that we both spent some time waiting tables,” she told the magazine. “I worked at a sports bar in New York City during college. It was before fantasy football was online, so people would come in with their notebooks. One time I spilled a pitcher of beer all over someone’s fantasy notebook. It really f—ked up his draft.”
Clearly, her waitress days are long gone! And now that she’s a bona fide star, she’s going to try her luck at finding a leading man in real life.
So what kind of dude is she looking for? “I absolutely love a funny guy,” she shared. “I am a sucker for it. It’s my No. 1 requirement.”
