Californian-born beauty Jessica Alba got an acting contract at the age of 12, and starred in numerous ads and TV programmes throughout the Nineties. It was her part in 2000's sci-fi series Dark Angel, however, that really put her on the acting map. But along with early success, came problems, including a spell of suffering from anorexia.
After early film roles in 1999's Never Been Kissed and Idle Hands, Alba starred in Honey (2003) and Sin City (2005), followed by her biggest movie role to date, as the Invisible Woman in the Fantastic Four. Although the film earned her a Razzie nomination for Worst Actress, it was a box office success, and also where she met husband Cash Warren. The couple, who married in a quiet ceremony in Beverly Hills on 19 May 2008, recently welcomed their first child, Honor Marie Warren. This year Jessica – who frequently appears on Hottest Women lists across the globe – will star in horror film The Eye, as well as reprising her role as Nancy Callahan for Sin City 2.
