JESSICA Alba may be renowned for her drop-dead gorgeous looks (that some say made her famous) but the actress has claimed that she is willing to undergo a massive makeover for a mark in more hard line films.
It seems that for the sexy ‘Sin City’ star gaining weight and shaving her head are all fair game, if it means getting a hard-hitting role in a serious film.
“If it’s for a challenging or inspiring role, I’d do it.” The star told press.
Alba has revealed in numerous interviews that being tagged as one of the world’s sexiest women isn’t all its cracked up to be.
Jessica landed FHM’s Sexiest Woman in the World title this year and placed number 2 in Maxim’s poll behind Lindsay Lohan but she told the Associated Press recently that she tries not to let such polls go to her head.
“I don’t really think about it too much.”
“I’m like everybody else. I get insecure about things just like everybody else. I wake up in the morning and think, “What the hell am I going to do with my face today or my hair? What am I going to wear?””
“People make me feel like … I’m not a person or superhuman or something because you’re on a list that’s being put together. But I understand that those magazines and those lists only exist just to give publicity for the magazine and publicity for the project that I’m in, and it’s not necessarily completely and totally true.”
Hopefully the star doesn’t need to ambush her external too much. Hopefully she lands the role she’s looking for and gets accepted for the actress she is – not for her body; or her face; but her talent.

BARBADOS-born pop/r’n’b singing sensation Rihanna has pur her umbrella over the most unlikely target – Britney Spears.
So most of us have seen Britney’s 2007 MTV VMA performance – whether it be watching the actual show, on the news or on some comedy show mocking the troubled star. And I can pretty much guarantee that we have all heard some part of the media laughing and criticising Spears over this performance. But Rihanna has put her hand up and said enough is enough; - urging the media to stop their criticism.The 19-year-old has spoken out stating that she believes Spears’ ruinous stage show at the Las Vegas ceremony, held in early September, was the result of her not having performed much recently, as well as dealing with the deep stress of her ongoing child custody battle with ex-husband Kevin Federline.
Rihanna says: “You can’t judge her performance without knowing what was going on with her personally. She had so much pressure for that one performance.”
“I’m telling you, it’s not easy being on that stage. I performed for a minute and a half, and I was extremely nervous.
“To have the amount of pressure that Britney had? I don’t know what I would’ve done. She did her best, so leave her alone.”

Super hot, super-hero portraying superstar Jessica Alba is rumoured to be becoming a SUPERMOM! – and I don’t mean in a movie.
Alba and her director boyfriend Cash Warren have recently been spotted shopping for baby shoes in Malibu.
The pair had a brief break-up back in July but are back together now and apparently preparing to start a little family.
The ‘Fantastic Four’ actress apparently called time on their 2-and-a-half year romance during an emotional telephone conversation back in July; supposedly dumping Cash after being sick of waiting for him to propose.
But all seems good now for the pair.
A source noted: “They seemed really happy to be back together as they shopped. Jessica was picking out shirts for Cash and holding them up against him.”
It was this visit to a Malibu department store that quickly ignited baby rumours after they were spotted browsing in the children’s department.
“Then they started sneaking a peek at a pair of very fashionable looking baby shoes.”
Alba is also continuing her modest ways, being forced to try and disprove the validity of all the high praise she gets for her looks.
She revealed: “I don’t really think about it too much. I’m like everybody else. I get insecure about things just like everybody else. I wake up in the morning and think, What the hell am I going to do with my face today or my hair? What am I going to wear?”
Jessica continued, “People make me feel like … I’m not a person or superhuman or something because you’re on a list that’s being put together. But I understand that those magazines and those lists only exist just to give publicity for the magazine and publicity for the project that I’m in, and it’s not necessarily completely and totally true.”
