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.

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.”

So we’ve all heard the news about the split of one Hollywood’s most well known yet low-key couples – Jessica Alba and Cash Warren. But the question that has been on all of our lips is why? What happened between the pair that broke the pair in half? 

Close friends of Jessica have apparently put one word to our question: MARRIAGE! 

After months of denying that the two-year romance was on the rocks, Alba purportedly decided to end her two-year relationship with the production assistant last week. 

According to friends of the pair, Cash was terrified of commitment.  

Now friends have revealed that the break-up was relatively amicable, but prompted by differences in the couple’s long-term aspirations.  

A friend of the pair revealed to the New York Daily News, “He [Cash] wasn’t ready for marriage, and Jessica is. It’s simple as that.”

“It’s kind of cold that the press is saying she was just finished with him, because it isn’t like that.”  

The cause of this sudden matrimonial uproar: Eva Longoria.  Insiders allude that the recent French nuptials of close friend Eva Longoria’s were the event that finally pushed Alba onto the marriage spiral. 

“Seeing Eva get married made Jessica wistful. That was the reason Jessica seemed to be in a terrible mood in Paris.”

 Though pals of the pair have claimed that they are confident that the pair will iron out their differences and get back together.

SEXY ‘Sin City’ star Jessica Alba has come out this month stating to GQ magazine that the brain is better than the brawn.

Alba, who is currently dating movie producer Cash Warren, is adamant in reporting that the first thing she looks for in a guy is brains not good looks. The star-spangled star revealed:  “I don’t really have a type as such. Intelligence,
kindness, a sense of humour – that’s kind of it for me.”

Alba met current squeeze Cash whilst filming ‘Fantastic Four’, on which he worked as a director’s assistant, and by the looks it he has made friends with her dad. The ‘Fantastic Four’ star said any probable suitors must be able to “hang out with her dad” or bye-bye.

Hilary once acclaimed alongside her sister that her “Lips were sealed” but in a recent interview with Top Of The Pops Magazine the 19-year old has revealed that the sister’s shared some sibling rivalry, which lead to her playing cruel tricks on her sister Haylie.

 The ‘Dignity’ singer revealed that she fought constantly with her older actress sister and would play cruel tricks on her which included freezing her underwear.

“If Haylie had friends over to stay when we were little and they left me out I’d freeze their underwear!”

The young Duffster accounted.

“I’d wet the knickers, put them in the freezer and snap them to ruin them.”

But no deed went unpunished.

Duff continued: “Whatever I did, Haylie always got me back. Older siblings know how to be good fighters – when you’re younger you just hit back. I’m sure there were a couple of flying hairbrushes.”

Hilary added: “When Haylie and I were really young and we played games together – she’d always make me pretend to be a boy because I had short hair. I hated it!”

Hilton has set up several business ventures of her own during her still-young life, under the names Paris Hilton Enterprises, Paris Hilton Entertainment, and Heiress Records; proving to many that she is more than just a party-girl but is a brilliant business woman.

The hotel heiress was released from behind bars just 5 days ago, after serving 23 days in a Californian jail. 

Contactmusic.com quoted the institute’s president Bill Zanker as saying: “We just sent over the offer to her and I think there’s a good chance she’d do it. She’s a brilliant entrepreneur. I believe she can offer her knowledge and give back to other entrepreneurs. She’s obviously brilliant, and my students would love her.’”

“She’s a businessman who has made this persona. We have a lot of people in small business, and where they need the most help is getting branded. Who is better at branding than Paris Hilton?”  

Some deals already put to Hilton’s name include designing a collection of purses for Japanese fashion label Samantha Thavasa and releasing her own-branded perfume with Parlux Fragrances for both men and women.

The 1^st of June 2007 marked more than just the beginning of a winter month for Indigenous Australians; it was a day of tribute to the Aboriginal war veterans, who had previously received nothing but discrimination and prejudice.

The rare wreath-laying memorial ceremony to honour Aboriginal war veterans was held in Sydney earlier this month, reviving tragic memories of how poorly the men were treated on their return to the country and the people that they fought for. But despite the sudden uproar of memories it was not a day of gloom and sadness, but rather a day of pride, remembrance and love.

The ceremony saw Aboriginal children and ex-servicemen and women lay wreaths at the city’s War Memorial.

New South Wales Education Minister, John Della Bosca, was quoted saying: “Thousands of indigenous soldiers fought side by side with white Australians on battlegrounds across the world, and this ceremony … gives us the opportunity to honour those who made the ultimate sacrifice.”

Victorian Aboriginal Affairs Minister Gavin Jennings said that the 40th anniversary of the 1967 referendum on indigenous Australians highlighted the fact that decades earlier many Aborigines fought for a nation that did not recognise them.

“It is extraordinary to think that indigenous men and women went to war for a country that at the time did not accord them the rights and opportunities that come with citizenship” he said.

It is believed that 500 Aborigines fought in World War I – an ample number, when you take in that the indigenous Australian population was a mere 80,000, and it wasn’t until 1917 that ‘half-castes’ were permitted to enlist. Between 3000 and 4000 Indigenous Australians served in World War II. A further 3000 served in support roles for the war effort.

One family in particular , the Lovett family, share an honourable story of courage and the endless discrimination from their past. Five Lovett brothers went to World War I and five signed up for World War II. All in all, 20 members of the Lovett family have served Australia in war and peacekeeping, from the Western Front to East Timor.

The most extraordinary thing about the Lovett family’s record of service, however, is that four of the five brothers who went to World War I also enlisted for World War II.

But when Aboriginal veterans returned to their homes, they found that both their social and political circumstances had been left untouched. They still were not allowed to vote, buy property or marry non-Aborigines. The men were restrained to reservations and church missions. As if this uncalled for denunciation was not enough the men were cast off from many veterans’ clubs, and after all the struggle that the men must already have to encounter from the physical and psychological effects that the war was having on them, they couldn’t even just go down to the pub for a drink, as they were not allowed to have a drink at the pub.

Perhaps one of the saddest points to this chronicle is that while other returned Australians soldiers were handed blocks of land to settle on and welcomed back to the bosom of society, the Aborigines had their applications for land rejected – even for land, in which they once owned.

Herbert Lovett’s son, Johnnie Lovett spoke of the ignorance saying: “When he’d finished his service for this country, he was given nothing.”

Dispossession of the Indigenous Australians didn’t stop either. William Murray, a Gallipoli veteran, headed the butcher of up to 100 Aborigines in 1928, which has now become known as the Coniston massacre.

Just under 2 months ago, on Anzac Day, a troupe of indigenous soldiers held a march through the Sydney suburb of Redfern, eschewing traditional Anzac Day services, where the sacrifices that were made by their community were completely disregarded, like they didn’t deserve some honour from their country that they put their life on the line for. This ignorance ultimately made this noble ceremony more important and significant within our community. Hopefully this will become an annual and uncontroversial tradition for our nation.
