Jessica
Alba was born on April 28,
1981, in Pomona, California. The aspiring actress relocated with
her family (her Spanish/Mexican-American father was in the Air
Force) several times before finally settling down in Southern California.
The Alba family moved to Biloxi, Mississippi, then
back to California, followed by Del Rio, Texas, and finally back
to the West Coast.
Jessica Alba's first film role, in
the 1994 film Camp Nowhere, came her way by chance. She was cast
with a bit part
in the film after one of the characters dropped out of the production.
Dark-haired Jessica was cast as the replacement, thanks to the fact
that her hair matched that of the original actress.
She then ventured into smaller projects on the small screen, with
commercials for Nintendo and J.C. Penney, and a recurring role in
Nickelodeon's The Secret World of Alex Mack in 1994.
Following her Nickelodeon stint, Jessica
Alba,
also a PADI-certified scuba diver, was cast as Maya in the 1995 series
Flipper. During
production of Flipper, Jessica Alba was actually kidnapped after
having received telephone threats. Thankfully, she was found unharmed
in
the trunk of a car. With Jessica's growing popularity on the Internet
after her role in Flipper and her exotic looks (Jessica's ethnic
background consists of Danish, French and Mexican), it's no wonder
that James Cameron cast her as the lead role in his television series,
Dark Angel. These traits of course, are bonuses next to the fact
that she can act...
Nicknamed "Sky Angel," Jessica
has been featured in Teen Magazine and Vanity Fair, and was nominated
for a Golden Globe in
2001, for Best Actress in a Dramatic Television Series. After a long
engagement to her older co-star Michael Weatherly (Logan on Dark
Angel) from 2001 to 2003, Alba was spotted with Mark Wahlberg
and even made a cameo on Wahlberg's show Entourage in 2004.
