She has recently spoken out about her time with the pop hunk on-screen
The Kentucky-born actress has left fans doing a double take in her festive flick – after previously teaming up with Justin Timberlake for his debut film role.
Maggie Lawson, now 44, starred with the *NSYNC and solo hitmaker, 43, in Model Behaviour.
Released in 2000, the ABC flick was based on the book Janine and Alex, Alex and Janine.
The scenes show Maggie play insecure teen Alex Burroughs – a fashion designer wannabe whose character goes on to date Justin’s Jason Sharp.
She was known for her poker-straight blonde hair pinned back with clips and elegant outfits, borrowed from friend Janine Adams, after the pair switched identities.
Now the screen star, who has gone on to star on Psych and FOX comedy Outmatched among others, looks completely different from her rom com role.
Maggie has opted for a darker blonde hairstyle off-screen and, in festive film A Lot Like Christmas, cuts a striking look with a pop of red lipstick.
She often fills her Instagram page with selfies with her dog and glam attire.
In her caption, she has described herself as an “Actress, Animal Lover and Amateur Explorer.”
