JESSICA ALBAI’ve been getting my makeup done professionally since I was 12, I’ve never found a brand that could create that glowing look and flawless finish we all want from beauty products with ingredients that were effective and safe. So I had to create it.
JESSICA ALBASome [actors] are really a pain in the ass today. I held out on getting an assistant forever because I didn’t want to seem demanding… or like a pain in the ass. I didn’t want someone working for me to hate me.
JESSICA ALBAI 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.
JESSICA ALBAIt’s not always so great to be objectified, but I don’t feel I have much of a choice right now. I’m young in my career. I know I have to strike when the iron is hot.
JESSICA ALBAI love acting because it’s this space where dreams can be realized, fantasy comes to life, and there are no limitations on what’s possible.
JESSICA ALBAI can’t tell you how great it is to get away with a girlfriend for four days shopping in Paris. Now that’s what I call a vacation.
JESSICA ALBAThe time I’m not spending with my kid has to be worth it, so when I sat down with my agents after I was ready to go back to work, I told them: It’s all about the directors.
JESSICA ALBAWhen I do comedy, I lose all inhibition and introspection. I no longer care.
JESSICA ALBAI’m much more of a risk taker. I’m more fearless now than when I was 18. I was much more self-aware and I cared too much about what people thought of me and now I really don’t. I probably should.
JESSICA ALBAWhen it comes to diversity, women are still underrepresented in so many different places, but one place we’re not underrepresented is we hold a majority of the household income, and we control that.
JESSICA ALBAMy theory is that if you look confident you can pull off anything – even if you have no clue what you’re doing.
JESSICA ALBAGood actors never use the script unless it’s amazing writing. All the good actors I’ve worked with, they all say whatever they want to say.
JESSICA ALBAMovies are the shadiest business in the world.
JESSICA ALBAI could have sexual chemistry with vinegar.
JESSICA ALBAThere’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.
