Jessica Alba

Jessica Alba was born in Pomona, California on April 28, 1981. The daughter of an army pilot, the family soon moved to Mississippi, her father’s new destination. Three years later, they all returned to California, where little Jessica began to develop her acting side. Since she was five years old, she dreamed of being an actress, so at twelve she took her first class. Things couldn’t have gone better, because nine months later she already had an agent. From then on, her life was linked to acting. She combined her studies at the institute with participation in various advertising campaigns. She completed her acting studies with David Mamet ‘s Atlantic Theater Company . Despite the fact that she was only a child, she had the opportunity to make her film debut in 1994 in Camp Nowhere ., where she was benefited by the departure of the actress hired to play the main character. With luck on her side, Jessica began a television career that led her to participate in series such as Flipper . To this day she has fond memories of that experience, in which she shared the limelight with a dolphin.

In the cinematographic field, she was secondary in the romantic comedy They have never kissed me (1999), which starred Drew Barrymore . Continuing with this youthful line, Alba was one of the members of the choral cast of the horror film for teenagers El diablo metió la mano (1999). Her first full-fledged leading lady came a year later with the thriller Paranoia . However, the title that brought her fame was James Cameron ‘s television series Dark Angel (2000-2002), where she was a peculiar thief with special abilities. Since she was a familiar face, Alba opted to change gender in the musical drama Honey .(2003), where she was a dancer and choreographer. Then came her great moment in the cinema at the hands of Frank Miller , Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez , who directed her in Sin City (City of Sin) , where she lived torment at the hands of  Nick Stahl , who played the evil Yellow Bastard. She seemed to like her role as a kidnapped girl a lot because she is now preparing the second installment of the film.

That he was already a star is shown by the fact that he became one of the main claims to sell the film adaptation of The Fantastic Four (2005) and its subsequent sequel. The actress became the invisible Susan Storm in an adaptation that she left a lot to be desired. Wrapped in a halo of fame and become one of the most admired women in the world, she starred in Awake (2007) with Hayden Christensen . Her work was awarded a Razzie nomination, better known for being the anti-Oscar, which has not tarnished her facet of a Hollywood star one bit. Still, Jessica doesn’t seem to want to pigeonhole herself and is determined to try new things. Just released in Spain The Eye (Visions), a horror tape where she has played a blind woman. For the occasion, she learned to play the violin and function as a blind person. Without reaching the levels of perfection of Al Pacino in Essence of a Woman , it is true that this role may be the best of her career. Without the film being memorable, she knows how to infect the viewer with her fears and anxieties.

While preparing the second installment of Sin City , Jessica awaits the premiere of the comedy The Love Guru that she has just shot with Justin Timberlake and Mike Myers. However, a break between filming and filming will not hurt her, because now she herself is pregnant and, according to rumors, with twins. After a somewhat stormy relationship, she and her boyfriend Cash Warren await the birth of her first – or first – child. Her new personal situation has filled the actress with satisfaction, who, despite being a brilliant star, still does not fully understand Hollywood. She confesses that she is hallucinated when in the world they insist on casting roles as a Latina girl on her, since she is not exactly one. Something that is curious, because in the Latino communities they do not consider it as such. As she explains, it seems that “I’m not American enough for some, nor Latina enough for the others.” An anecdote that has ended up making him laugh more than once since,
