Jessica Marie Alba (b. 1981) – American film actress. She began her path to success at the age of thirteen in the series “The Secret World of Alex Mack”. Gained fame thanks to the television series Dark Angel. The films “Sin City”, “Fantastic Four” brought her worldwide popularity. In 2006, it became “No. 1” in the list of “99 most desirable women in the world” (according to the web portal AskMen.com). In 2007, she was recognized as the “Sexiest Woman in the World” (according to FHM magazine).

Childhood

Jessica was born on April 28, 1981 in the California city of Pomona.
Her father, Mark Alba, is an American of Mexican descent. He served in the air force, which is why the family often had to move from one place to another. They lived in the state of Mississippi in the city of Biloxi, and in the state of Texas in the city of Del Rio, before returning back to California.

Mom, Katherine Alba (Jensen’s maiden name), has Franco-Canadian and Danish roots. She married Mark when they were both still teenagers. At the age of twenty, they already had two children, shortly after Jessica, Joshua’s son was born.

Parents had to work simultaneously on several jobs, however, they were low paid. Therefore, for a long time, the Alba family shared one apartment with their grandmother, received state assistance in the form of food stamps, and children often carried their clothes.

When Jessica and her brother asked for something from their parents or complained that they were living worse than others, my father put them in a car and drove to Mexico. He showed them the slums where people live, and the dirt that surrounds them. He wanted to convince the children that it was a sin to complain, someone was living much worse. Despite her father’s lessons, Jessica always wanted more, since childhood she had a sense of belonging to something higher.

School

Jessica was a very painful girl as a child. Moreover, she was ill for an infinitely long time, rarely went to classes, more and more often lay in hospitals. Two times the girl had a decrease in the lobe of the lung (atelectasis), 4-5 times a year she suffered from pneumonia (pneumonia), she had a cyst on the tonsils. Sometimes it came to the ridiculous: classmates forgot about her at all, and when Jessica, after another illness, appeared in the class, they were surprised like: “Where did you come from?” Most likely, the diseases were caused by frequent relocations and a change in climate, because when the family finally settled in California, Jessica stopped getting sick.

Due to a long absence, the girl was isolated from children, she grew very modest, there were no girlfriends, and indeed the guys avoided her. On top of everything, she studied at school, where there were a lot of sleek mother’s sons and daughters, who considered her Mexican origin to be shameful. Cruel children said that Mexicans can only pick up trash or work as gardeners. So, when Alba was not in the hospital, she was destined for the fate of the white crow at school. In this regard, she even appeared syndrome of obsessive states.

Beginning of an acting career

Her film debut took place in 1994 in the American comedy “The Lost World”, a thirteen-year-old girl got a very small cameo role. But she was enough for Jessica to understand: all this is insanely interesting for her, the choice in favor of the acting profession is made correctly. After that, she starred in several commercials and independent films. In the same year, she played in the television series Secret World of Alex Mack and Flipper, after which she became known to the general public.
