Olivia Wilde reveals in the October issue of Allure that she made the first move on her now-fiancé Jason Sudeikis.

The star, who appeared with Sudeikis in Drinking Buddies, tells the mag, “I met Jason, and I thought he was so charming. He’s a great dancer and I’m a sucker for great dancers. But he didn’t even get my number.”

Wilde says, “Over the next six months we kept running into each other,” until one night, “My best guy friend walked up to him and said, ‘This is Olivia’s number. Use it.’”

“That was the beginning,” adds the actress.

Wilde also opens up the media frenzy surrounding her comments that she and Sudeikis “have sex like Kenyan marathon runners.”

The Rush star says, “I reached out to [Jennifer Aniston], who has, of course, been through the wringer, and I explained the situation and I said I needed advice on how to deal with these things. She wrote me one of the most gracious, wise emails describing her journey and really wonderful words of advice about how to deal with it.”

The issue hits newsstands on September 24.

Olivia Wilde Pens Funny, Inspirational Advice Column For Women Turning 30

Truth rating: 10

Olivia Wilde is taking the right attitude to turning 30 next year.

The Drinking Buddies star penned a funny and inspirational piece for Glamour in which she outlines the “dos and don’ts” of hitting the big 3-0.

Wilde urges women, “DON’T freak out about all the brilliant people who accomplished more than you by 30,” saying, “What you achieve is far less important than what kind of human being you are.”

She offers, “What do you want people to say at your funeral: ‘Olivia may have cured HIV, but she ran over my cat and drove away laughing’? No, thanks! I’d rather be a good person who makes people happy than a dick who wins a Nobel by 32.”

The star also advises ladies, “DON’T cut your face,” sharing, “I am so saddened and grossed out by young women who look like creepy, old aliens because of their new Barbie noses and lips.”

Wilde says a better approach is to “Take care of yourself now that you’re old enough to know how. Drink water, sleep eight hours (I wish), and don’t go within 400 feet of a tanning booth or I’ll slap you. Hard.”

As for the “dos” of turning 30, the actress impels women, “DO reap the benefits of accumulated wisdom,” explaining, “You’re 30: You know stuff now. Your twenties were for ‘ducking up,’ as my auto-correct would say, and learning from those mistakes.”

“Now you get to live with that knowledge under your belt. Also, make it a nice belt. You’re 30. Stop dressing like a hobo,” adds Wilde.

For the star’s full list of 30s “dos and don’ts,” head over to Glamour.
