From msn.com
April 4, 2007
It's a chilly Saturday afternoon in downtown Los Angeles on the roof of the chic Standard Hotel, but Jessica Alba has taken some time out from wrapping her upcoming production, "The Eye," to speak to the press. Alba looks a bit dour, but that may just be a reflection of the difficult role she jumped into.
An American adaptation of the 2002 Hong Kong horror movie "Jian Gui" (or translated, "The Eye"), Alba's new movie finds her playing a blind woman whose sight is restored after a cornea transplant. Unfortunately, with her new vision also comes the traumatic power to see the supernatural. Obviously a bit freaked out, she tries to determine the history of her new eye's previous owner. The original "Eye" creators, the Pang brothers, are currently working on their first U.S. flick, "The Messengers." Therefore, directors David Moreau and Xavier Palud, the duo behind the critically acclaimed French thriller "Ils," are helming this American remake. Tom Cruise (yes, that Cruise, and no, he wasn't at the press talk) and Paula Wagner are producing the flick and have smartly surrounded Alba with intriguing co-stars Parker Posey and Alessandro Nivola, both indie film veterans.
Alba hasn't been on-screen since summer 2005 when she had the mega-hit "Fantastic Four," followed by the bikini-fest adventure "Into the Blue." She's wrapped four major projects since then, but the "Fantastic" sequel, "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer," will beat all of them into theaters. It's clear that with "The Eye" she feels her directors are adding something special to her filmography.
"I wanted to do something that was classy, that transcended the genre, hopefully," Alba says." [Moreau and Palud] want to make this more than just a horror movie they could to take their girlfriend to. It's really going to look beautiful and different. And it's more of a psychological thriller than just a horror movie. There are just not a lot of movies that star women that are smart and really tell the story through her eyes."
Alba heavily prepared for her role, but found the musical requirements much harder than she originally anticipated.
"I've learned how to adjust and live as someone who is blind and there are a lot of anxieties that go with that," Alba says. "But then, also having to play a classical violinist is impossible, pretty much. [They have] me playing Beethoven and Mozart -- it's not simple 'Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.' It's really complicated, beautiful music."
Still, Alba is hoping her fans appreciate her latest role, even if it means she's not wearing anything too revealing in it.
"It's a beautiful story of this girl's journey and getting her sight and dealing with never having it, gaining it and then losing her sanity. It just happens to be wrapped up in a horror movie," Alba says. "I think that's just much more interesting than just playing something like running around in a white T-shirt assaulting people."
All is forgiven as long as you promise to go skimpy in "Sin City 2," Jessica.

JA and her Fantastic 4 costars will be making a public appearance in Australia.
From Sydney Confidential April 19, 2007 01:00am
THE film is called the Fantastic Four, but one of its stars will cause the real sensation when she hits Sydney in two weeks time.
Yes, fantastic is a term commonly used to describe Hollywood hottie Jessica Alba and if you ask any Australian male, chances are they'll be quick to drop an assortment of other impassioned adjectives too.
Along with her co-stars Julian McMahon, Ioan Gruffudd and Michael Chiklis, Alba will be flying into town to promote the latest instalment of the superhero family franchise - Fantastic Four, Rise of the Silver Surfer.
On May 2, the awesome foursome will be assembling at the Entertainment Quarter to showcase some exclusive "first look" footage from their forthcoming film, which is not due for release until June 21.
An exclusive red carpet event and party will follow the screening, held to coincide with the opening of the new Will and Toby's Taylor Square, the Live Supper Club and Lounge Bar.
Fantastic? Thought so.

From today's New York Post/Page Six WORTH A FORTUNE Here's the caption, April 20, 2007 -- JESSICA Alba is the new face of Revlon, and is being paid handsomely for it. She's said to be collecting $5 million, with her first job starring in a global campaign for Revlon's 3D extreme mascara. Alba, who recently shot the campaign in L.A., also put to rest rumors of strife between her and boyfriend Cash Warren when he came to visit her on set. Alba's "Fantastic Four" co-star, Beau Garrett, has also been signed by Revlon, but his role is as yet undefined.

An article on JA's diet and exercise routine. If that is an accurate description of her everyday diet , then she probably should be eating more. IMHO
