Jessica Biel has a relaxed attitude towards the tabloid press, because she can't help but laugh at the absurdity of fabricated reports about her relationship with Justin Timberlake.

The Illusionist star has been dating the pop singer since 2006, during which time the media has been saturated with rumours about their romance - and whether it's come to an end.

Biel insists she's heard all the stories - and she finds them funny.

She says, "It's definitely been weird and sort of bizarre to deal with. But you have to have a sense of humour about the whole thing. Honestly, I look at a magazine and they know more than I do.

"You do really have to just get into a place where you feel Zen (at peace) about it - take a deep breath and know that somebody is going to be taking your picture while you're going to the laundry and picking up your dry cleaning."
