She’s alright. And my pic IS cuter. She just got lucky.

Why do people have such a problem with others who have differing opinions than theirs? Grow up. Lauren and I were stating that while Jessica is a pretty girl, we don’t feel there’s anything spectacular about her. No one’s attacking the girl, we’re stating an opinion. Geez, how old are you? 12.

I saw her in person hanging outside a T.G.I.Friday’s in the Cayman Islands a couple of years ago. I only noticed her because of her outfit-not because of her overrated “beauty”. When I walked past her, I told my best friend “Hey that’s Jessica Alba.” His answer was, “Who’s that?” Classic.

I will admit she is pretty, but not the prettiest woman in Hollywood, and her acting is tortuous. I almost wished for her to die in Sin City.

I’ll have to disagree with those saying she is not in the Elite league of beauties. I agree she is not a “severe” beauty. However, she has done a lot of magazine photoshoots for a reason. She is absolutely stunning in many of them. Her recent red carpet appearances have been show-stealing. Total movie star looks, IMHO. Right there with the greatest. She knows glamour and fashion and makeup, and has the body and face to pull it off.

Look at that incredible smile she is giving her dad in one photo above. Her ability to turn that on at anytime is what has really got her so many fans. That smile, those looks, and what seems to be a nice personality works for her.

She was good in Sin City and Fantastic Four. Both sequels will have her in them, and they didn’t *have* to get her back for Sin City 2.

Amazing! Thank’s JustJured!

i like her! however i do think she is HIGHLY OVERRATED as far as looks & acting she pretty but in CA you can find tons of girls that look like her everywhere sooo yea her acting…..anyway i think she looks MEXICAN for being mixed race, and she always makes a point of it…she likes downplaying her latina heritage which is sad she should be happy cause its what gave her Prettyness!! other actresses like Ashwarya Raye, Angelina Jolie, Alexis Bledel (who is part mextican her self) & adriana lima (not a actress but latina) are far more exotic looking ANYHOW she is PRETTY….but my point is so are many other actresses…..

Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder and I think Alba is grossly overrated in every aspect. I live in Southern California, I see beautiful women everyday and Alba when not on the screen looks so incredibly average. I definitely think the standards for what is “beautiful” has altered a tremendous amount since the early days of Hollywood. Classic beauties like Grace Kelly, Rita Hayworth and Gene Tierney were of definite higher standards. These women were the complete package. They were elegant, they were graceful, extremely classy and talented. This was a time when beauty was natural. Look at a woman like Ingrid Bergman, who off screen wore average clothes and no make-up and was still beautiful, all 5′10 of her. Someone mentioned that Katharine Hepburn was average looking, well, I wholeheartedly disagree. Kate was uniquely attractive, especially for her time. She was tall, she was red-headed and had real defining features for a leading lady starting out in the ’30s. She was also a very talented and adept actress capable of playing any role, quites possibly the greatest female actress to ever live, which shows to prove that the beautiful back then could actually act.

she is sexy, that’s why she tops sexiest women polls. there are many beautiful women but not all are sexy.

alba is worth a bang, lots of them actually

bang, bang, bang,

I think she is beautiful in a mixed-race ethnic way.

i think jessica alba is alright not mega pretty. I think she is pretty cause she has white features. small nose nice teeth and large round eyes like salma hayek who has a tiny nose and nice eyes. salma is like a cross between keira knightly and winona ryder in her features if she looked mega ethnic she would not even be considered.

I have to definently agree Lauren. She is the almost overated actress in Hollywood. Being from California myself I have seen girls in my highschool with a similar look to her. The woman is pretty but nothing extraordinary. Alba is cute. Salma Hayek is gorgeous not to mention a better body and dangerous curves. Salma Hayek is not only sexier but has a very unique and exotic look to her that is definently not common. Alba doesn’t even compare to Salma who is twice her age and continues to age gracefully.

audrey and grace were and always will be beautiful, stunning, etc. they are timeless. sophia is still beautiful, stunning etc. (she’s alive isn’t she?). cate blanchett is stunning…

…unlike aishwarya rai, jessica alba, liv tyler, etc. i think jessica is pretty, but i don’t usually remember much of what she looks like…that’s how much i consider her looks. so basically, she quite forgettable.

now, the other two aforementioned celebrities are somewhere in between ”annoyingly unforgettable” - because of their irritating faces - and ”forgettably stupid” - for their constant lack of expression. both are very naff (as in, ”tacky, cheesy, tasteless, etc.).

so, while i DO pleasantly remember the likes of audrey, grace, sophia and cate, i forget jessica, and the slew of young starlets trying to make it in hollywood. however, every once in a while i am reminded of aishwarya and liv whenever i see an inappropriate ode to their looks (a.k.a. hype) in an advert or an obnoxious comment. i am talking about the givenchy perfume campaign starring liv tyler and the vulgarly presumptuous comments by aishwarya rai on her being compared to audrey hepburn, and i will quote,

”Audrey Hepburn’s son Sean Hepburn Fererr presented me with a book on his mother in the US. A week later, after the premiere of Bride And Prejudice, I was compared to the great actress and her demeanour by some of Britain’s leading newspapers — that’s quite a coincidence.”

and when she said, and i quote again,

””Taj is a beautiful piece of architecture, more beautiful than me. I’ve always regarded it with admiration as it embodies love.”

but then i remember the likes of audrey again, and think of what she disliked most: pretense, affectation and insincerity…

…and i forget about the likes of ms. rai.

Jessica is pretty she’s not average! She has to have bleach blonde hair fake boobs to be hot! I think Jessica is hot ! she has a natural beauty! Angelina jolie has an exotic face but her anorexic body ruins everything. salma hayek is pretty but has fake boobs!
Pretty comes in diferent colors!

My Oh! My, aren’t we envious !!!
Jessica Alba is young, beautiful and talented. Have you ever seen Halle Berry without make-up ??? I have, she doesn’t looked very pretty
to me. Believe me, she down looks average, and not good looking at all. Thank God for Hollywood make-up artists. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. To be discovered like Jessica was (she was a child star) you need to have something about you that someone else sees as potential, talent and the timing has to be right !! Because she is half white and Mexican, either she is going to inherit the genes from her mother or father. An example: Barak Obama, he is half white and African but he still looks African American. Although, when he was young he looked more like his father. He probably had a nose job.
All those old stars, believe me they all looked like the average people. And now days, all these Hollywood types are all fakes. Nose jobs, boobs, bleaching their skin, and fake hair.

she was only voted most beautiful last year cuz she’s half mexican. majority of people who live in america are mexican and of course they would only vote a women of their own origins. *scoff* she’s the only decent looking famous actress that’s at least half mexican in america. jessica alba doesn’t compare to the marilyn monroe and audrey hepburn . no one can compare to marilyn monroe

shes pretty. but one of the recent beauties that just fascinates me is megan fox. she makes me so envious :(

Jessica Alba is pretty…

BUT NOT THAT GREAT! There’s girls out there who are prettier.

The dad looks like he was a good looking guy but the mom looks very fat and overweight.
