Jessica Alba Hot WallpaperBiography
Jessica Marie Alba was born on April 28, 1981, in Pomona, California.

Despite constantly moving across the U.S., Jessica Alba knew she wanted to be an actress from the age of 5. Her career was ready to take off when an agent signed her a mere nine months after 12-year-old Jessica took an acting class.
Jessica Alba's first film role in the 1994 film Camp Nowhere came to her by chance. She was cast with a bit part in the film after one of the characters dropped out of the production. Dark-haired Jessica was cast as the replacement, thanks to the fact that her hair matched that of the original actress.
She then ventured into smaller projects on the small screen with commercials for Nintendo and JC Penney, and a recurring role in Nickelodeon's The Secret World of Alex Mack in 1994.

During production of Flipper, Jessica was actually kidnapped after having received telephone threats. Thankfully, she was found unharmed in the trunk of a car.

The L'Oreal model (Jessica Alba is a Feria hair color spokesperson) returned to the scene with the title role in 2003's Honey. No one can forget the incredibly sexy moves Miss Alba learned for her role in the dance-centric flick. After her role as stripper Nancy Callahan in 2005's Sin City, Jessica Alba was seen in Into the Blue (2005) with Paul Walker and Ashley Scott. She also played the classic Marvel Comics character Sue Storm (the Invisible Woman) in the movie Fantastic Four (2005).
2006 was one filled with accolades, not for Jessica Alba's acting talents but more for her undeniable beauty. She was voted No. 1 in AskMen.com's 99 Most Desirable Women list, and she appeared on the cover of the March 2006 issue of Playboy. After Hef's publication used a promo shot for Into The Blue of Jessica without her consent, she pressed and later dropped charges after receiving a personal apology from Hugh Hefner who agreed to donate money to two of her favorite charities.

In 2007, Jessica Alba showed off her funny side in Good Luck Chuck, starring Dane Cook. That same year she also appeared in Awake, The Ten, and Fantastic Four: The Rise Of The Silver Surfer.
Jessica Alba made Maxim's Hot 100 list for the fifth time, and FHM named her 2007's Sexiest Woman in the World. So it's no wonder she also came in at No. 5 on AskMen.com's Top 99 of 2008.

Also in 2008, aside from starring in The Eye and The Love Guru, Jessica Alba announced her pregnancy of her first child with long-time boyfriend, producer Cash Warren. The couple secretly got married in May of that year in a private ceremony that even the paparazzi didn't know about.
My grandfather was the only Mexican at his college, the only Hispanic person at work and the only one at the all-white country club. He tried to forget his Mexican roots, because he never wanted his kids to be made to feel different in America. He and my grandmother didn't speak Spanish to their children. Now, as a third-generation American, I feel as if I have finally cut loose.
Men are much bigger divas than women. When I used to do the action scenes in "Dark Angel" (2000) I would have to play it rough. If you hit an actress accidentally, she would usually take it on the chin and say, "Don't do that again." But with the guys, they would put ice on it, take a 20-minute break and ask for X-rays. It was unbelievable. I would tell them, "Come on, man, get over it." That's actors for you.
There is always an unspoken problem about casting Latina actresses. I have heard Jennifer Lopez talk about how it was for her, always being up for the role of the Latina chick.
Cute Jessica Alba WallpaperWhat happens when the looks fade?. If I don't establish myself as someone who can act a part rather than look the part, I will soon be finished.
I don't need to be in the press or seen. Just because I'm not in magazines or because I'm not in a movie doesn't mean I'm going away. It just means I have some sense of integrity.
Living in L.A., everyone likes to mold you and change you. I don't care about fame, I don't care about being a celebrity. I know that's part of the job, but I don't feed into anyone's idea of who I should be.
I used to come to Beverly Hills for auditions as a kid and think, "Why don't I live here? Why don't I drive that car?"
I wasn't given a whole lot in my life. I was on the bottom of the class system. But I got wisdom. I never just did what people told me. I questioned everything. When I look back, it is really no surprise that I started working at 12.
From a very early age, I remember thinking that adults were always acting like assholes. I couldn't understand why I had to respect them. My pre-school teacher forced me to write right-handed when I was left-handed. I didn't get why I had to change. Nobody could give me a reason. I have had a big problem with authority ever since.
Hot Jessica Alba Sexy Image[oeing raised by young parents] We all grew up together. My parents were so young. My dad hates it when I talk about our past, about not having things, living with grandma, wearing thrift-store clothes, cutting coupons.
[on learning Spanish] I have a great accent because I grew up hearing it in the neighborhood. But I have no idea what I'm saying.
[on growing up in L.A.] I never really belonged anywhere. I wasn't white. I was shunned by the Latin community for not being Latin enough. My grandfather was the only one in our family to go to college. He made a choice not to speak Spanish in the house. He didn't want his kids to be different.
It's not always so great to be objectified but I don't feel I have much of a choice right now. I'm young in my career. I know I have to strike when the iron is hot. I look forward to the day when I can do a small movie and act and it's not about me wearing a bathing suit or chaps.
Sexy Jessica AlbaIt's porn [Good Luck Chuck (2007)]. There were all these actresses who got conned into being completely naked. Some were strippers, probably. But every day when I was done, I ran away. I was like, "Bye". As long as they didn't disrespect me, I could give a rat's butt.
It's probably the most influential thing that I've ever had. Thank god for Dark Angel. Getting a blessing by James Cameron to star in his first television show. Really the first thing he did after Titanic was hire me.
To me, box office is the most important thing. If the movie makes money, then I'm fine.
