OlderJessica Alba - “Marie Claire” March 2008
Jessica Alba dishes on sex, power and pregnancy in the March 2008 issue of Marie Claire.
The mom-to-be also talks a bit about working with Step Up Women’s Network, a national women’s and girl’s empowerment organization to help young females in the inner city make their way to success.
Interview snippets below!
On being a role model: “When I was a little girl, I always wanted someone to look up to. I think identity was a big deal to me because I didn’t fit in with one certain race. I always wanted someone who looked like me, who was a positive role model.”
On being bullied at school: “I had a lot of haters. They’d unzip my backpack so my books would fall out. They’d tie my shoes together. They’d ‘accidentally’ spill lunches on me.”
On Hollywood’s perception of women: “There’s a lot of pressure on women to fulfill certain fantasies. They expect you to be a little bit of a tart, to flirt with all the men. A lot of women do it. But I’m not doing that. I talk with these guys about their wives and kids right away. When they say inappropriate things, I let them, because boys will be boys, but I’m not looking to participate in their conversations.”
Jessica, 26, and fiance Cash Warren, 28, are expecting their first child together in late spring, early summer.
The March 2008 issue of Marie Claire hits newsstands nationwide on Tuesday, Feb. 12th.

what a loser! she acts like she was the only person at her school or in the world that actually got bullied and she thinks just because they did that they were haters. lol @ how she says that nobody looked like her, she is a very common looking girl nothing unique about her. she is so stupid was she living in the slavery era where she had to fit in with a certain race? what a dim wit nobody goes 2 school thinking they are gonna have to fit in a certain group ,religion, race what a loser
“Boys will be boys?” Is she kidding? This statement should never be used by a woman trying to promote women’s empowerment. That statement alone gives men an excuse to treat women like objects. Everything out of this girl’s mouth is so irritating. And her not being able to identify with a particular race at school? Please. She lived in Pomona CA, a predominately hispanic community with schools of children that look just like her. I’m hispanic and I identified with the black, asian, white, etc… kids at my school. It’s not that hard. It’s called being friendly and open minded, Jessica. Race isn’t an issue to children. They all just want to have a good time. People probably didn’t identify with you because you come across as arrogant and witchy.
bataglio,
What’s the point of your stupid post.? Care to share that with us? It doesn’t seem to have anything to do with the topic except to showcase you being a j@ckass.
she’s on ANOTHER cover? didn’t she just make a fool out of herself with latina magazine?
here’s what she said in latina magazine
On claims that she’s proud to have cut loose from her Mexican roots: “I never said that. Cut loose from what? What the hell are they talking about? Why would I want to cut loose from the only family I know?”
her comments not too long ago from another magazine:
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.
you can look it up if you don’t believe me.
Funny - her quote regarding hollywoods perception of women - her picture is on a magazine stating “Bed behavior - what ‘he’ wants you to do, Boob Job envy, How to marry big money, beauty pills,etc” - she doesn’t have to participate in ‘boys’ conversations with her made-over cover shot on a magazine like this
