Alba on Why Dealing With a Picky 2-Year-Old is Trickier Than Learning Lines

Jessica Alba has mostly been cast in super-sexy or superhero roles, but in "Little Fockers" she gets the chance to show audiences she can be funny, too. In the second sequel to "Meet the Parents," Alba plays a slightly nutty drug rep opposite an uptight Ben Stiller. In real life, the actress, 29, is married to Cash Warren and the mother of Honor Marie, 2.

She spoke to ParentDish recently about her comedic turn and her hatred of "Barney."

ParentDish: So, the last two movies weren't that successful. Bit of a gamble taking a role in "Little Fockers."
Jessica Alba: Yeah, totally. It's not like any of the cast had, like, a career. They had no experience. They were sooo lucky to have me in the movie. They really needed my star power. I made the film. It was such a dream come true. I've always wanted to do a comedy and, obviously, I love all of these actors. They're icons. Gosh, can you get a better comedy school than working with Ben Stiller? His timing is so ridiculous, I mean he's Zoolander! He knows how to do broad, he knows how to do shy, he's just a comic genius.

PD: How did you get the part?
JA: I auditioned for it. I don't know who else did and I don't really care. At the end of the day, I'm supportive of all sorts of actresses being in movies, opening movies. I'm not competitive in that way. Everyone is individual, no one is indispensable. Everyone brings their own unique flair to a role. I really enjoyed doing this and if someone else would have done a better job, then go for it. If I can bring something cool and unique to it, then awesome.

PD: You play a sexy drug rep.
JA: Well, drug rep. Crazy. Totally crazy.

PD: You know they hire pretty girls to be drug reps.
JA: Yeah, they're like cheerleaders.<

PD: You've talked about being typecast as the pretty girl.
JA: Actually, I've never said anything like that. It's been interviewers saying, "Oh, so you're always looked at as the pretty girl, is that a problem?" I'm like, "Uh, no, I've never really looked at the roles like pretty girl, check. It was like superhero, sure. Genetically modified kick-ass chick, sure. Blind violinist, OK, sure, why not? Certainly, after I had my daughter it's the material and the character and primarily the filmmaker.

PD: Are you pickier since you had your kid?
JA: A lot more. She's 2 ½ now. She's just getting her opinions and she's able to voice them now. When she gets frustrated, she can talk about it. Before, it was just screaming and crying and I didn't know how to fix it. Now we can communicate. There are rewards and time outs. There are ways to manage what's going on. I don't feel so lost. But you have to stick to your guns. It's very hard.

PD: What's easier? Learning 30 pages of script or dealing with a 2-year-old who won't eat?
JA: The 2-year-old! The script is easy. The 2-year-old is always the problem, not in a bad way. It's like you totally care. I care about her more than anything else in the whole world.

PD: What TV shows does she like?
JA: "The Backyardigans," "Yo Gabba Gabba." I've seen every "Gabba" episode at least 30 times.
PD: Yeah, they love to do the over and over, but, you know, I'll take that over "Barney" any day.
JA: I'm scared of Barney.

PD: Me, too! He's disturbing and the songs ... Do you plan on having more kids?
JA: Yeah, at some point. We'll see how it goes. I mean, we want more.

PD: Is Honor learning Spanish?
JA: We have people in our house and family members who speak Spanish to her all the time, but my Spanish is terrible. It's like 1-year-old Spanish. She has a much broader vocabulary than I do already. It's so good to open up their ears and minds to different languages. By the time they're 3, their brains start creating prejudices about accents and tones. It's just something that happens with brain chemistry. The more you can expose them to different sounds and languages before 3, the better. So, yeah, we're totally trying to do that.

PD: Would you like to do more comedies?
JA: I really love doing comedies. It's my favorite thing. We'll see if I can continue doing comedies, hopefully. I don't even know what my next job is.<

PD: Does that worry you?
JA: No! I mean, I get to hang out with my kid, which is the funnest thing ever. I'm so happy with the way things are going because I don't have to work all the time. I work a little bit and the rest of the time I'm with my daughter. For me, that's so much better, especially until she starts going to school. I don't want to miss spending time with her.

Jessica Alba’s Hubby Cash Warren Says: ‘I Absolutely Love’ Her New Hair!

Jessica tweeted a photo of her brand new hairstyle yesterday and it seems we aren’t the only ones who love her sleek new bob!

How sweet! Jessica Alba’s number one fan is her husband Cash Warren! The couple, who have been married for two years, strutted the red carpet last night at the NYC premiere of Little Fockers arm-in-arm but HollywoodLife.com got a chance to steal Jessica’s handsome hubby for a moment to ask what he thought of his gorgeous wife’s new hair and he couldn’t stop gushing!

“Oh, I absolutely love it,” Cash said. “She can’t do wrong in my eyes, I think it looks great.” But when we asked if the 29-year-old actress gave him the heads up about cutting off her brunette locks, he replied: “No.” Looks like even though he wasn’t consulted, Jessica’s hubby loves the results of his gorgeous wife’s beauty decision!

Holiday plans for the happy couple and their 2-year-old daughter, Honor? Cash said: “Not really, just low-key with the family.”

Tinseltown’s most reluctant sex symbol talks Vuitton, vanity and script vetoes

“Do you like these glasses?” Jessica Alba asks breezily, spinning around in a pair of oversized shades. We’re standing in her dressing room, just metres away from a dazzling expanse of turquoise pool and sky at a big white house high up in Beverly Hills. “They’re vintage Pierre Cardin,” she exclaims, tilting her head towards me.

This is the Hollywood darling who at one time, by her own admission, dressed in an “ultra-conservative” way. Yet recently we have seen a style rebel emerge, mixing up killer outfits as she glides down the red carpet at the premiere of her latest blockbuster, runs errands around her native Los Angeles or perches front-row at the couture shows in Paris — and this spreading of her sartorial wings has not gone unnoticed.

Today she has retreated to the cool shade after modelling Louis Vuitton’s stunning resort 2011 collection against a glistening David Hockney-esque swimming pool, framed by emerald leafage and hot-pink blooms. The 29-year-old, who is married to film producer Cash Warren, 32, flops down onto a white chair in the airy room, which has floor-to-ceiling windows.

In person, Alba is just as beguiling as she is onscreen, with luminous skin, chocolate-brown eyes and a svelte hourglass figure to die for. Back in her own clothes, the 170-centimetre actor looks chic in a Gerard Darel white tee, Zara taupe cropped trousers and Yves Saint Laurent wedges, accented with an Escada chunky wooden necklace. Could she be any more perfect?

Alba grew up in California. She started acting classes at 11 and by her early teens was a jobbing actor. Being on set was “like the first feeling I really belonged somewhere,” she says. Alba had a lonely childhood as her family (her father’s heritage is Mexican and her mother’s French-Danish) decamped often and she had health problems including collapsed lungs. While other young stars went off the rails, she was “never into the young actor crew thing, like I was never one of those cool people”.

The ever-lovely actor is now one of Hollywood’s leading ladies, and has wooed audiences in movies such as Sin City, Valentine’s Day and recently, action flick Machete (at the premiere, she oozed high-octane glamour in a Balmain sequinned minidress and cut-out Louboutins). Yet while she’s been on the A-list radar for some time, it’s taken her until now to really find her style feet.

“Since I was little, I’ve always been into it [fashion] but I never really knew how to wear it,” she says, laughing sweetly. “It kind of took me 10 years of being an adult before I figured out how to put things together in a way that made me feel like the clothes aren’t wearing me, you know?”

Was this a conscious decision to tap into her fashionable side? “It’s just where I’m at in my life,” says Alba, who works closely with stylist friend Daniel Caudill, and describes her style as flitting between classic and edgy. “Just getting older, being more comfortable in my own skin and understanding what I like.”

Looking back, much of Alba’s previous fashion reserve stemmed from a lack of confidence. “I used to be really shy and embarrassed, and I was a tomboy,” she says, citing timeless beauties such as Grace Kelly, Jean Seberg, Audrey Hepburn and Diane Keaton as style inspiration. “Now I don’t care what people think and I just like to wear what I like, so it’s just a different mentality.”

Attending the most recent couture shows in Paris fired up her penchant for fashion (“I loved things from every collection,” she says dreamily). The BAZAAR shoot today is a treat as Louis Vuitton is top of her covet-list: “I’m a huge fan of the overall brand and I love Marc Jacobs overseeing as creative director,” she enthuses.

“It’s so cool and young. I really like this resort collection.” Other favourites include Lanvin and Narciso Rodriguez for his dresses, which “are like little pieces of art”.

This gutsy new outlook coincided with the birth of her daughter, Honor, who turns three in June and, when she appears on the shoot set, is off-the-scale adorable. “After I had my kid and I took time off, I just didn’t care,” Alba explains with a shrug. “Now I’m just doing what makes me happy regardless of anything.” What impact has it had? “It’s changed everything,” she sighs. “Things that used to seem really important aren’t important at all, like people’s opinions. I used to be a super-big people pleaser, always trying to get approval from everyone and wanting to make everyone happy, and I just don’t care about that anymore.

“Then the other thing is, I felt mortal instantly,” Alba says, her eyes widening. “I used to be a bit of a daredevil and now I’m not even close to it; it’s just not worth it. I couldn’t even imagine not being 100 per cent there for my daughter. Any risk of anything happening, I won’t do it.” Like riding Harley-Davidsons, I ask, referring to her former thrill-seeking pursuit? “Yeah, exactly,” she says with a chuckle. “I don’t need to ride motorcycles.”

Alba is one of Hollywood’s hottest sex symbols, despite her strict no-nudity career rule (she appears naked in Machete but this is digitally manipulated). She was brought up in a conservative Catholic family, and still finds it funny that she’s thought of this way: “I thought that was over and they’d moved onto someone else,” she says. “It’s very flattering. You know, it helps being airbrushed and having makeup artists and hairdressers.”

She snapped back into shape soon after giving birth to Honor but still has body hang-ups some days. “I’m super-critical about myself when I’m looking at myself,” she says, then clarifies: “Actually, I used to be a lot more critical of myself before I had my daughter, but now I just don’t really care that much. It just doesn’t matter.

I’m like, ‘Am I healthy? Can I spend time with her? Does everything work?’,” she says, laughing. Any secrets to that enviable body? “I mean to work out, I really do,” she says. “I could lie and say I do yoga, and I did do yoga for a while, but not really. I’m going to start working out soon.”

Her publicist walks into the room and jokes, “Don’t you hate her?” “No, I really am,” protests Alba. Full credit to her for not pounding away on a treadmill like the rest of Hollywood. What’s more, you won’t find her dodging carbs; she eats foods such as hot chips and pizza (“I just like to use organic things,” she says).

When not working, a typical day for the down-to-earth Alba and husband Warren involves going swimming with Honor or taking her to the park. “Breakfast, lunch and dinner take up a good hour-and-a-half or two hours,” she says, grinning. The couple met while filming Fantastic Four in 2004 and celebrate their third wedding anniversary this May. “We usually like to just do nothing because we both do so much in work,” she says. “It’s the best when we can just chill out and be with each other.”

In the meantime, it’s back on the movie trail. Alba stars alongside Robert De Niro in both Machete and Little Fockers (out this month), the threequel to Meet the Parents and Meet the Fockers. “He’s amazing and I really admire him,” she says. A stellar cast includes Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, Barbra Streisand and Dustin Hoffman. It follows Gaylord Focker who, after marrying Pam, has five-year-old twins, and Alba plays a stirring pharmaceutical sales rep. “It was super-fun,” says Alba, who had a blast working with Stiller. “I was just so excited to be part of the franchise and also to be able to be funny, because I love doing comedy.”
