Beauty
The Girl (We Wish Lived) Next Door

Jessica AlbaJessica Alba wants you to know she's not a "mini-skirt-and-cleavage-girl" -- she only plays one on the big screen.

The stunning actress tells the November issue of Elle magazine "I never dress for men -- I dress more for women," coyly adding, "I'm guilty of wearing too many sweat suits. I have such long hours that I want to be in my pajamas."

Alba, who's made a career out of baring her curvy physique in sexy roles like "Sin City" and "Into the Blue," tells the magazine even she has image issues, stemming from a four-year stint as a born-again Christian. "Older men would hit on me and my youth pastor said it was because I was wearing provocative clothing, when I wasn't," says Alba. "It just made me feel like if I was in any way desirable to the opposite sex that it was my fault, and it made me ashamed of my body and being a woman."

She also opens up about her battle with Playboy, who used her image without permission and her refusal to ever appear nude on film.

Sorry guys.

17. Jessica Alba is not preetier than Paris Hilton. What makes her any better. And I bet a ton of guys dont want to live next door to her. And I didn't like the tmz comment at the end where it said sorry guys. No real straight hetero guy would ever want to see this ugly woman naked. Yes i said it I think she is ugly and so is that Cash Warren dude he's perfect for her.

18. You people go and call Paris hilton ugly. But then say this chick is hot. I just dont get that! I dont like neither one but Paris is way better than this Alba person. Her movies are awful too. Shes probably the one crawling with herpes. The magazines dont care enough about her because she's boring thats why they would rather talk about Paris than her. I would be flattered to be Paris. And I doubt anyone jacks off to her ugly pictures.

21. Jessica's never been naked on screen. As I've often said, it's a crying shame that we live in a world where Kathy Bates has had more nude scenes than Jessica Alba.

22. I have to say that anju is somewhat correct. She's a pretty girl, but why do people keep referring to people like Jessica Alba as "curvy"? I'm sorry but somone with 34" hips (I forget which lad magazine has this statistic) has no curves to speak of. That's my BUST measurement for crying out loud. She probably weighs what, 100 pounds soaking wet? Spare me. Show me a picture of America Ferrera and then we can talk about curves.

23. In my humble opinion, I think that Jessica Alba is one of the most beautiful, classy, graceful and poised woman in Hollywood.. Not only does she has looks, but it appears that she has a brain to make the full package. Now, if only I had her body, I would be wearing a teeny-tiny bikini everyday!!

24.
Someone tell me what the big deal is about this girl? I dont get it. She's certainly not ugly but dont understand why she's put on this pedestal. There are hundreds of girls far more beautiful: Catherine Zeta-Jones, Sofia Vergara, Adriana Lima, Angelina Jolie, the list goes on...It's pure propaganda...

25. IM SORRY #24, but I have to disagree AJ is not prettier than this girl, first of all this girl is WAY YOUNGER, second WAY CLASSIER, third WAY LESS COMPLICATED!

I personally think she needs to gain weight, but just a little and shell be perfect, she is beautiful and most of you wish you looked like half of her, so dont hate cause shes georgeus!

Paris in my opinion is pretty to (I hate the biatch) but I dont hate and I think she is very pretty, but I dont think shes prettier than Alba, SORRY PEOPLE BUT PARIS IS EVEN SKINNIER THAN THIS GIRL AND DIRTIER TOO!

27. That women is not curvy and her opinion on the women's image is getting old!

28. Jessica Alba is gorgeous. She classy too. Its too bad that pervy or prude christians (the minority) make the rest of us look bad. Real christians don't bomb abortion clinics, start cults, or shove religion down people's throat's against their will. It's these morons like she talking about that perpuate the negative stereo types that the media loves.

29. Boy, hard to believe she used to really live down the street from me but so did Helen Thomas ... I saw a guy hit another car while eye-balling Ms. Alba playing tennis ...
several things most guys would do if she lived next door ...
1. run out of sugar all the time
2. run out of milk too
3. Make sure Magnum condoms spilled out of garbage bag
4. Become a cable repair man
5. Hope that her mail gets "misdirected "
6. Pray that her doggy gets lost
7. Start a Neighbor watch - Alba
8. Make sure torn-up playboys fall out of garbage
9. Put their mail in her Mailbox
10 .Buy a generator and Pray for a black-out

30. I hate to admit it, but the first exposure I had to this young woman was "Dark Angel". Love the show. Think she is incredible. A beautiful and talented young woman. ( 51 year old, married female, with two daughters) Very happy to know she is as smart as beautiful.
