More quotes by Jessica Alba
I like to cook. I would probably go to culinary school in France if I had time.
Jessica Alba
I never fit in with my peer group. I never hung out with kids my age - I always wanted to hang out with my mom and her girlfriends.
Jessica Alba
I wish I could speak Spanish, because it would be a lot easier to play more interesting roles.
Jessica Alba
Nothing is put on pause. Everything is still happening. And then as far as just reflecting on what got you to where you are, there aren't very many times where we have the space to sit and reflect and really understand the depth of what it took and the grit that we had to have to get to where we are.
Jessica Alba
I'm not incredibly self-conscious. I don't really feel like I walk around making fashion or my appearance the most important thing in the world. It's certainly not the way that I live my life. I'm not really sure how the magazines perceive me because I don't read them.
Jessica Alba
If I didn't get a job, between 16 and 18, that wasn't significant, I was just going to go to college. I didn't want to be a struggling actor at 36 with five kids, doing something I hated. You see the story so much. It's such a vicious business to be in when you're not meant to be in it.
Jessica Alba
When I do comedy, I lose all inhibition and introspection. I no longer care.
Jessica Alba
As a girl, I was always told I was nasty or dirty if I was sexual in any way. Americans are such prudes.
Jessica Alba
I think the world is ready for people of color to take on more heroic and leading roles, and not always be the sidekick, the nemesis or any sort of stereotype of what a person of color can play typically in a Hollywood picture.
Jessica Alba
I loved my baby dolls when I was a kid. I used to pray with them and say good night to each and every one of them because I didn't want their feelings to get hurt. I remember having that connection with my baby dolls.
Jessica Alba
I don't hang out with the Hollywood cool people. I'm not out trying to make friends with people because they're famous.
Jessica Alba
There's no such thing as a perfect guy. I think it would be strange if somebody was absolutely everything you always wanted, because then there'd be no challenge. Also, you'd feel inferior.
Jessica Alba
The secret to using power is not to use it. Just having it is enough.
Jessica Alba
All moms need confidants who are in their shoes and can relate to what they're going through. You need a night out together to be who you are, and not feel like you have to be the career woman, wife and mommy--all at once. After all, we're not superwomen.
Jessica Alba
My approach to wellbeing is to not be so critical and so hard on myself, and also to not think that I have to conform to other people's ideas of beauty, and to be okay with what made me feel good. I think it took me a while to get there.
Jessica Alba
It's really, really, really difficult to have the same occupation as the person you're with - especially when you're both actors.
Jessica Alba
When I was young, I loved black men.
Jessica Alba
I went through puberty really early, when I was 11. It makes you feel weird - you know, like your uncle is now hugging you a little bit longer than he used to. I think we all go through wanting to go back - you're not sure you're ready for that body.
Jessica Alba
[On accepting travel suggestions from her two daughters, 6 and 3:] When they pay for the vacation, they get to dictate where we go.
Jessica Alba
I think people couldn't really put me in [one race]. I wasn't Mexican, I wasn't white, I wasn't black, I wasn't Asian... I wasn't anything, and I didn't really fit into anybody's group. My dad is Mexican, and my mom is French and Danish.
