Whatever happened to Michelle Williams...

aka Jen Lindley of Dawson's Creek?




The bad girl with a good heart, when Jen Lindley arrived in little old Capeside she was lusted after by sappy Dawson (sorry Dawson fans, I'm a Pacey girl all the way!), and envied by gorgeous, but insecure Joey. Everyone's favourite town bike, unashamedly-sexy Jen was the go-to girl for a good time.




That was until she met gay Jack, the first guy who didn't want her for her body, and she began to grow a little self-respect. Jen lived life on her own terms, boldly and unapologetically. Sadly, in the end, she died. Perhaps it was karmic retribution for all the bad, dirty, anonymous sex she had...?




After Dawson's Creek, Michelle Williams starred in some small-time indie flicks, until a little film called Brokeback Mountain came along and catapaulted her into the A-list, as well as introducing her to now ex-partner and father to her daughter Matilda, Heath Ledger.




Michelle has five films coming out in the next year including roles in Incendiary with Ewan McGregor, and an untitled film with Hugh Jackman. She currently resides in Brooklyn, New York with 2 year-old Matilda, and is also reportedly dating Ryan Gosling, ex-boyfriend of Rachel McAdams, with whom he co-starred in the weepy chick-flick "The Notebook".




Here are some classic Jen Lindley quotes:


[Grams runs into an old boyfriend]
Grams: I thought you were dead.
Jen: Great pick-up line.


Pacey: I'm a better catch than Tye the Bible-beater or that skirt-chasing Neanderthal Chris Wolfe.
Jen: This coming from the guy whose past two relationships have ended with the girl either leaving town to avoid prosecution or cool out in crazy camp for the summer?


Jen: I left home because I couldn't handle being the bad girl anymore. But if being the bad girl means not walking around in a perpetual state of loneliness, then bad girl it is.


Dawson: If he did meet somebody else and forgot about her than obviously they were never meant to be in the first place. See my point?
Joey: Could you be any more naive?
Dawson: Could you be any more cynical?
Jen: Could you be any more irritating?


Jen: Don't give up on your lost causes, you never know when your luck will change.

Error No. 1 - Heath never married or got engaged to Michelle. His sister confirmed that over a year ago.

Error No. 2 - Michelle dropped out of Bronte ages ago and she was recently axed from being the voice of 'Where the Wild Things Are'.

Error No. 3 - Michelle isn't dating Ryan Gosling. However, the one who is dating and is blissfully happy is Heath Ledger who is dating 20 year old Australian Supermodel Gemma Ward. They just spent Christmas together in Perth, their hometown.
