    Kate Mara (Entourage, Nip/Tuck), 27, goes totally blockbuster in this month's Iron Man 2. The multitalented NFL princess—one great-grandfather founded the Giants; another, the Steelers—tackles the MC questionnaire.

    MC: You've sung the national anthem at Giants Stadium many times. What goes through your mind out there?

    KM: Trying not to forget the words. I zone out and pretend there aren't thousands of people there, because—oh, my God—what if I go blank?

    MC: Best memory of the Giants winning the Super Bowl in 2008?

    KM: My whole life, I had never been allowed in the locker room—but at the Super Bowl, we went in. It was funny walking into one with my grandma!

    MC: What's your go-to karaoke song?

    KM: This is really nerdy, but "A Whole New World" from Aladdin.

    MC: What's your best feature?

    KM: My hair. Even when I was a kid, I had this insane head of flaming hair. It looked like a wig.

    MC: What's your favorite indulgence?

    KM: Shoes! I just bought tan Christian Louboutin peep-toe pumps with fringe.

    MC: What superhero power would you most like to have?

    KM: Flying. Whenever I dream about flying, it's the best feeling in the world.

    MC: What's your signature drink?

    KM: Dunkin' Donuts coffee.

    MC: I can't go to sleep until ...

    KM: My Boston terriers, Bruno and Lucius, are in bed with me. Bruno snores like an old man, but it's become soothing—when I'm away, I have to sleep with the TV on because I'm used to the snoring.
