Expectant actress Jessica Alba covers August 2011 issue of Allure magazine. 30-year-old Sin City actress, pregnant with her second child, is looking very stylish in a silk-jersey-and-leather dress by Derek Lam and flawless makeup.
Jessica wears a white satin gown by Derek Lam inside the mag that added to her beauty along with curled extensions and earthy-toned makeup. On no-nudity in her movies: “At least I’m still covered. I’m wearing as much as a bathing suit. It’s not like I’m naked. I’m not terribly comfortable with being in a bikini, but covering up my genitals is different than not covering up my genitals, at the end of the day. I do see a difference in that, to put it really frankly.”
On embracing her body type: “There’s a reason why certain areas of the body are desirable – because it all leads to reproduction. There’s a science behind it all. It’s not just to sell whatever you’re selling on a billboard or a magazine or a movie.”
On her post-pregnancy body: “I can’t ever get down to the weight I was before I had Honor. My body’s just different. The jeans just sort of zip up differently, and things hang differently. It’s a miracle what happens, but you definitely are different afterwards. Unless you’re Gisele.”
On being a sex symbol: “I was quite shy with it. It wasn’t something I embraced until I had my daughter. I saw how incredible and amazing it is to be a woman and to be able to create a life.”On being engaged at 18: “He was my first real boyfriend. My family – you fall in love, you get married. That’s just the way everybody does it. I didn’t know any different.”
