Jessica Alba
Born
Jessica Marie Alba on April 28, 1981 in Pomona California, the
hot actress and popular Web celeb was raised as an Air Force brat
who moved with her family to various locations in Mississippi
and Texas before settling back in California at age nine.
Reportedly
a tomboy growing up, Alba's intense interest in sports later turned
to acting and, at age 12, she enrolled in her first drama class.
Less than
a year later, she landed her first agent who helped cast her in
appearances on television shows such as Beverly
Hills 90210.
Her film debut
came in 1994 in the comedy Camp Nowhere, afterwhich she
returned to the small screen in various TV roles such as Maya
in the Flipper series, leading up to her most notable role
as Max Guevera in the highly popular sci-fi series, Dark
Angel which aired on FOX from 2000-2002.
Alba's other
silver screen credits also include appearances in Paranoid
(2000) and The
Sleeping Dictionary (2003).
Her breakout
year in films came in 2005, when she was featured in such starring
roles as Nancy Callahan in Sin
City, and Sue Storm in the summer movie blockbuster,
Fantastic
Four. Her
last big screen appearance was opposite Paul
Walker in the thriller Into
the Blue.
Although she
began 2006 with a nod by AskMen.com,
who named her the
'ideal' girlfriend in an online poll, Jessica Alba is also
among the nominees at this year's Razzies
which has singled her out for dubious achievement as "Worst
Actress" for her performances in both Into the Blue
and Fantastic Four.
The hot actress
is also in the news for a lawsuit she has brought against Playboy
for using her image without her consent and causing "immeasurable
harm" to her reputation and career.
She most recently
appears on the big screen in thriller Awake,
in which she stars opposite Hayden Christensen. She also stars
in a much-anticipated movie thriller, The
Eye, playing an eye transplant patient who suddenly sees into
a supernatural world.
Baby
News ... and a Wedding
Off-screen,
Alba has been romantically linked to director's assistant, Cash
Warren, who she reportedly met on the set of Fantastic
Four. In late 2007, Alba's publicist announced that Alba and
Warren were
expecting their first baby, due in early summer 2008.
Most recently,
People Magazine confirmed that the Alba and Warren got married
in an ultra-secret civil wedding
ceremony in Los Angeles. Alba meanwhile was reportedly in
"frantic nesting mode" awaiting her new baby, a girl
named Honor Marie Warren, born on June 8, 2008. Photos
of the baby were published in OK! Magazine in July for a reported
payday of $1.5 million for the new parents.
