Jessica Marie Alba was born in Pomona, California, in 1981, under the Taurus zodiac sign.
She began her performing career at a very young age! After participating in Camp Nowhere and The Secret World of Alex Mack at the age of 13, she had already gained television and film experience.
She rose to stardom while still a teenager. Alba was cast as the lead actor in Dark Angel when she was 19 years old. The Fox network broadcasted a science-fiction drama television series that started in 2000 and lasted until 2002. She was also nominated for a Golden Globe for the show.
Alba’s major break came in the dance flick Honey in 2003. The birthday girl became a rising celebrity in Hollywood not long after. Her career took off fast, and she went on to star in a number of film office smashes, including Fantastic Four and Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Good Luck Chuck, The Eye, Valentine’s Day, and others.
Alba consented to do more research into her past in 2014 and appeared in Henry Louis Gates’ genealogy series Finding Your Roots. Her surname was derived from Indigenous people, according to the show’s investigation. Alba has 72.7 percent European admixture, 22.5 percent East Asian admixture, and Native American admixture.
In 2011, the singer of Mexican descent decided to start a consumer goods firm and co-founded The Honest Company.
Alba’s company serves as a marketplace for ethical consumption. She’s been so successful that her company generated $250 million in sales in 2016 and is now valued at $1 billion.
Her activism and charity efforts have had an equal impact on the world as her business and career. She has volunteered for organizations such as Clothes Off Our Back, Habitat for Humanity, National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, Project HOME, RADD, Revlon Run/Walk for Women, SOS Children’s Villages, Soles4Souls, Step Up, and Baby2Baby, and she is also an ambassador for the 1Goal movement, which aims to provide education to children in Africa.
While filming Fantastic Four in 2004, she met the love of her life, Cash Warren. They married in Los Angeles four years later, and their firstborn, Honor Marie, was born in June 2008. Their secondborn, Haven Garner, was born in August 2011, and they had a son, Hayes, in December 2017.
