No one can forget the incredibly sexy moves Miss Alba learned for her role in the dance-centric flick. After her role as stripper Nancy Callahan in 2005's Sin City, Jessica Alba was seen in Into the Blue (2005) with Paul Walker and Ashley Scott. She ... played the classic Marvel Comics character Sue Storm (the Invisible Woman) in the movie Fantastic Four (2005).

Jessica Alba has no intention of following in the footsteps of Demi Moore, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera and posing naked while pregnant. Just a week after confirming that she is expecting her first child with boyfriend Cash Warred, it has come to light the 26-year-old beauty has turned down three offers of baring all for glossy magazine covers.

Expectant mother Jessica Alba had a scary fall at the Academy Awards on Sunday night. On her MySpace blog, the actress reveals that while she was happy she didn’t flub her lines or trip on her dress while recapping the winners of the Scientifical and Technical Achievement awards, she did get tripped up offstage.

Raised in a military family, Jessica Alba grew up in Mississippi, Texas, and California. She took her first acting lessons at 11, and soon burst out as a gifted actress. Within months, Alba had an agent, and soon she was featured prominently in commercials for JC Penny and Nintendo. At 13, she was hired for a tiny role in Disney's Camp Nowhere, but her big break came when a girl with a larger role backed out after filming had begun. Alba had similar hair, so recasting her in the more prominent role required few re-shoots. She quickly landed a recurring role on Nickelodeon's The Secret World of Alex Mack, and at 14, she did a schlocky direct-to-video film with Morgan Fairchild called Venus Rising.

Jessica Alba doesn't consider her looks especially exotic. "People today are more ethnically mixed," the actress, who is Mexican, French and Dutch, has said. "The girl next door looks like me." Well, she may not look like her, but she may relate to Alba's real-life roles as a mom-to-be and a bride-to-be. Just don't expect the star of the upcoming thriller The Eye to hit the red carpet in anything flouncy or white. "I don't want to show up [an event] looking like a brideor Jessica Rabbit," she has said. Spoken like a true girl next door.
