Beyonce Knowles was born on September 4
Jessica Marie Alba was born on April 28, 1981 in Pomona, California.
Jessica was in love with the idea of becoming an actress from the age of five,
and she took her first acting class when she was twelve. Nine months later, she
was signed by an agent.
She made her feature film debut in "Camp Nowhere" (1994). Originally hired for
two weeks, she got her break when an actress in a principal role suddenly
dropped out. Jessica cheerfully admits it wasn't her prodigious talent or charm
that inspired the director to tap her to take over the part. It was her hair,
which matched the original performer's. The two week job stretched to two
months, and Jessica ended the film with an impressive first credit. Two national
TV commercials for Nintendo and J.C. Penny quickly followed before Jessica was
featured in several independent films. She branched out into TV in 1994 with
recurring role in Nickelodeon's popular comedy series " The Secret World of Alex
Mack". She played an insufferable young snob, devoted to making life miserable
for the the title character, played by Larisa Oleynick. That same year, she won
the role of Maya in "Flipper" and filmed the pilot for the series. Jessica spent
1995 shooting the first season's episodes in Australia. The success of the first
season of "Flipper" lead to the filming of the second season, which Jessica also
starred in.
Since "Flipper" Jessica has appeared in a number of television shows and movies.
In 1996, she appeared in "Venus Rising" as Young Eve. She began working on
"P.U.N.K.S.", featuring Randy Quaid, in 1998. The same year she appeared in
"Brooklyn South", as Melissa, she was in two episodes of "Beverly Hills, 90210",
as Leanne and in two episodes of "The Love Boat: The Next Wave".
Jessica Alba had major roles in two movies in 1999: "Never Been Kissed" and
"Idle Hands". In 2000, she had roles in "Paranoia" and "Dark Angel".
