"Big Bang Theory" bombshell star Kaley Cuoco is on the cover of the July issue of Maxim Australia where she poses in sexy outfits and shows off her hard-core abs.

Cuoco, 26, rose to fame as the next door beauty on CBS's hit show The Big Bang Theory where she stars as Penny.

The actress, who's new movie, "The Last Ride," just made its way into theaters, exudes confidence and an easy-going style in the photos. It is apparent that these are the characteristics that catapulted her to fame after starring in the sitcom "8 Simple Rules."

When asked if she was dating anyone, Cuoco told Maxim: "I'm not. I'm newly single. I'm always the girl with the boyfriend. I love having a boyfriend, because I think I'm the greatest girlfriend in the world."

She also told the magazine about what she thinks of Hollywood. "I'm very uninvolved in the Hollywood scene. I might have been to a club once in my entire life. I'm the biggest homebody. I think I've been hungover one time, and I hated the feeling. I love being at home with the dogs. I wish I wasn't so pathetic. I fall asleep on the couch, no matter what, every night between 8:30 and nine. I am not exaggerating."

When asked if she had an unrequited crush, Cuoco said: "I'm sorry, but I usually get what I want. When I go for something, there's nothing that stops me. Nothing."

She also admitted that she is a fairly low-maintenance girl. "I'm such a guys girl. I love every sport. I'll go to any game, any time. I can eat, I can drink, I can have such a good time with the guys. I'm just not a girly girl. I'm completely low-maintenance, and I think that's great for a guy."
