Ali Larter is coming off a very long night. "I was up until 6 a.m.," she says, stifling a yawn. "I had dirt all over me, twigs in my hail, and blood and scrapes covering my face."

No, Ali didn't get into a scuffle with a wild animal--she was shooting nighttime scenes for NBC's Heroes', on which she plays Tracy Strauss, a genetically modified triplet coming to terms with her unique gilts. (Ali spent the past two seasons playing Niki and Jessica Sanders, two of' Tracy's siblings.)

And though she's understandably wiped out, she certainly doesn't look it. There's not a dark circle in sight, and her long blond hair appears to be freshly blown out. She's dressed in a beige Dolce & Gabbana pencil skirt, a fitted white tank top, 5-inch black platforms, and diamond earrings. "I'm a big fan of glamour,'" she says. "It's something I don't think there% enough of in Hollywood anymore. I enjoy putting on a sexy dress and heels. I want to work it."

While her character is undergoing somewhat of an identity crisis, Ali, at 32, has reached a confident, peaceful place. "I'm figuring out how to enjoy the fruits of my labor," she says. "I'm making a conscious effort to slow it all down."
