Jessica Alba: Why Are People Obsessed Over My Butt?
Jessica Alba is the June 2007 cover girl for InStyle Magazine! The Fantastic Four star reveals she's a lapsed Catholic and a lapsed born-again Christian but Buddhism feels right for her now. Here are some more highlights from Alba's interview:
On her crazy butt-loving fans: "I don't know why people are obsessed [over my derričre]. Well, it's not flat, so maybe they're just not used to seeing an actress who has a figure... I had womanly curves at a young age. Usually kid actors are a few years older than the roles they play. I was two or three years younger."
On her all work and no play schedule: "You can probably work too much and lose your soul. I love work and find it fulfilling, but I think a balance is good."
On her nude spa experience: "I went to a spa here, and it was so traumatic because no one was wearing a suit in the coed Jacuzzi. It was so gross! I'm not sitting with a bunch of people with their business hanging out."
On always having to move around as a kid: "I went to 11 schools growing up, so I was always the new kid. I was kind of a loner and never hung out with a group. I chose just to do my own thing."
On learning commitment from her parents: "My parents taught me about unconditional love, because you have your ups and downs, but you stick through it. I learned a lot from that, and I know that kind of love is possible. So I'm not quick to jump into something. My parents made a forever commitment, and I know that's what I want."
On her favorite Hollywood icon: "Steve McQueen. He was so brutish-beautiful, strong and unpredictable."
On her wrist tattoo (the word for lotus in Sanskirt): "For me it signifies the manifestation of spiritual beauty."
I personally dislike when people say "curvy" to mean some indicator of the weight. You can be thin and be super curvy or straight as a board. But because she's so thin (you can see her rib bones in that really creepy Maxim picture!), her curves have still lessened and I have to say that I do not envy that ass she thinks everyone loves! I've read elsewhere that she hates that she's "curvy," though!

My roommate in college's cousin knows Jessica Alba. From what I hear she's quite a snooty b*tch. I don't know why she's going on about curves and her butt, she is super skinny and you can see that because her ribs are sticking out in that Maxim photo.

Me too! No matter what size I wear (and I've been a size zero, 8 and every size in between), I am still curvy. I still have a butt and I still have boobs. Weight has nothing to do with it!!

i agree (i should've chosen a better phrase. doh!). but you need some degree of body fat to be curvy... otherwise you're just bumpy.
it drives me nuts when celebs/socialites are photographed 'eating' big greasy burgers on the patios of popular restaurants, and they give interviews in magazines, claiming that they're 'womanly' and always eat and eat and love their curvy selves. i smell bullshit!
