Hollywood actress Jessica Biel says she is addicted to cheese.

However the A-Team actress says she sticks to a strict diet and exercise regime when she is shooting her movies, which means she has to go without the calorific dairy delight.

"I have a pretty good diet, pretty much, when I'm working. "When I'm not working it goes out of the window. I'm very much a savoury person. I love pizza, bread, pasta and cheese.

"Cheese on top of cheese, on top of cheese! It's the best."

Biel has been in the UK this week promoting her new film The A-Team and admits her favourite thing about coming to Britain is the food.

The 28-year-old beauty has a particular fondness for crumpets.

Biel, who plays military hardliner Charisa Sosa in the reimagining of the 80s TV show said: "I love the British food! What are those things... crumpets! Crumpets are amazing. I had poached eggs on them the other morning but I really like butter or jam. I'm a great fan of, oh what's that stuff again? Cottage cheese!"

Earlier this month, Jessica admitted she has to work hard to maintain toned physique.

She said: "This doesn't just happen naturally. I eat very well and that means staying away from sugar, coffee, bread, wheat and gluten - all the fun stuff that everyone wants to eat! It's hard but I'm very disciplined."
