Elizabeth Banks

Actress Elizabeth Banks is a self-proclaimed goofball but her Guest DJ set is smart, sincere and quite sexy. She takes us through songs that mark her move to Hollywood and a track that tugs at her heart strings. Then we see her in a whole new light as she talked about “the sexiest song she’s ever heard”. She stars in the film People Like Us which opens on June 29.
