Emmy Rossum is hot and funny. And she is an animal lover.

The gorgeous star of 'Shameless' goes topless for Esquire, showing off that simply amazing body of hers. Know what's even hotter? Her sense of humor and her understanding of how things really are in Hollywood.

The actress, who did the interview via Skype and offered a tour of her "little oasis of craftiness," which she suggested is better than meeting in a café, showed off her dog Cinnamon, claiming he has a big penis. Rossum, 27, wouldn't show the canine's junk, though.

The pup was a gift from a crappy ex-boyfriend -- a gift that she learned to love. With a name like Cinnamon for a male dog, we question the depth of her love. We kid, we kid.

Rossum also revealed how she stumbled upon a bloodied man on the road by her home who had been hit by a car. That helped her put things, like life, in perspective.

"Last weekend, I was pulling out of my house and I saw a body in the road and blood everywhere," she recalled. "This guy had been hit by a car. I called 911 and stayed with him. You see how lucky you are to be alive. All the Hollywood bulls--- and accolades and money really doesn’t matter. It just gives you a slightly nicer house and slightly nicer food and slightly shinier hair."

Amen, sister.
