Jessica Alba #2: Because she could never be invisible



Biography

Jessica Marie Alba was born in Pomona, California, on April 28, 1981. Jessica’s family moved to Biloxi, Mississippi while Jessica was very young. Her father, who was in the Air Force, moved the family to Del Rio, Texas, later. Eventually, the family settled in southern California when Jessica was nine. Jessica had always wanted to be an actress from the age of five. She took her first acting class at the age of 12. Shortly later, Jessica was signed by an agency.

In 1993, Jessica made her movie debut in Camp Nowhere. She was originally hired for a short time but got lucky when one of the main actresses dropped out. Jessica, who had the same colour hair as the actress, eagerly took over the spot. After her first movie, Jessica appeared in two commercials for Nintendo and J.C. Penny and a few independent films. In 1994, she landed a reoccurring role in "The Secret World of Alex Mac." She played a snob who made life hard for the main character with magical powers.

Also in 1994, she landed the role of Maya for a pilot of "Flipper." Jessica spent 1995 filming the first season of "Flipper" in Australia. Jessica is a PADI-certified diver and the "Flipper" show allowed her to have fun and play with the dolphins. The success of the first season of "Flipper" lead to the filming of the second season, which Jessica also starred in. Jessica involvement in "Flipper" lasted from 1995-1997. Since "Flipper" Jessica has appeared in a number of television shows and movies.

In 1996, Jessica appeared in "Venus Rising" as Young Eve. Also in 1996, she appeared in an episode of "Chicago Hope", as Maria. In 1997, Jessica appeared on the "Dini Petty Show", a Canadian talk show, and talked about her role in Flipper and her general acting career. She began working on" P.U.N.K.S., " featuring Randy Quaid, in 1998. "P.U.N.K.S. " was just recently released on video in early January, 1999.

In 1998, Jessica appeared in several TV shows for an episode or two. In early 1998, she appeared in "Brooklyn South", as Melissa. A few months later, she appeared in two episodes of "Beverly Hills 90210," as Leanne. And finally, she appeared in an episode of "Love Boat: The Next Wave." In 1999 she appeared a huge number of magazines. She had a small role in "Never Been Kissed" which was released in the Spring. A month later she could be found with a larger role in "Idle Hands. " Her two performances in those movies started a buzz in the entertainment industry. Many more magazines would come knocking on her door. Shortly after the release of those two movies, she landed the starring role in "Paranoia." She finished filming "Paranoia" in June. The movie is in post-production now.

Shortly later she started working on what will potentially be her biggest work ever. She auditioned for the leading role in "Dark Angel. " She caught the eye of James Cameron and will now star in the post anticipated TV show of 2000, "Dark Angel. " With the huge success of "Dark Angel" and its legion of fans, Jessica will no longer be a rising star, she will be among the Hollywood elite, a star.

Jessica made a comeback in 2003 with the title role in "Honey." In 2005 she appeared opposite Bruce Willis in the movie "Sin City," the down-and-dirty feature-film version of Frank Miller's popular graphic novels. Alba played Nancy, a stripper with a tortured past who's about as close to innocence as it gets in a grisly black-and-white world.

I agree, even if I prefer her with dark hair, I still think the blonde hair works on her. Some people, the switch from blonde to brown (and vise versa) doesn't work, but for Jess it does

You can see her roots more clearly with darker her... when she has blonde hair, she looks like an angel to me

I actually prefer the blonde, but not REAL light the way it is in those pics. But she looks stunning nonetheless.

I just got done watching Sin City for the first time, and as disturbed as I am about the level of chemistry Jess and Bruce Willis had, my girlcrush on her has been totally reawakened
