January Jones is showing off her gorgeous stems in the May issue of W magazine. Ms. Jones has got legs ... and she definitely knows how to use them!

When asked about her role in the upcoming movie X-Men: First Class, the 33-year-old Mad Men actress tells the mag:

“As Emma Frost, I’m telepathic, and I can turn into a diamond, which means I’m very, very cold. I always wear white: lots of iridescent stretch leather, lots of sparkle, and ass-kicking white boots.”

As for moving to New York to become a model, Jones adds:

“I was excited to be independent, but I was also naive - I wanted to be rich and famous. I lived in an apartment near the Empire State Building. There were a billion girls in New York City who wanted to be models. After a while, I was immune to rejection, which helped when I went out to LA to become an actress.”

Find out what January had to say about her sexy Mad Men character ... after the jump.

“There was no Betty in the pilot when I auditioned. I read for Peggy two times - it was between me and Elisabeth Moss who eventually got the part. At the end of the scene, there was a casual mention that Don was married. [Creator Matthew Weiner] went home that night and wrote two scenes that featured Betty. I auditioned a couple of days later, and he made me a verbal promise that the character would grow. I took the part on faith.”
