Jessica Alba covers Glamour magazine's June edition, where she talks about her religious upbringing, health problems, feminism and motivation. The Sin City: A Dame to Kill For actress also made a promise to herself not to show her assets on screen anymore, because she "doesn't want her grandparents to see her boobs."
Hit the jump to read a preview of Jessica's discussion with Glamour:
"
On why she's not doing nude scenes anymore: “I don’t want my grandparents to see my boobs. That’s it. It would be weird at Christmas. And, I mean, really, if you look at the movies I have done, getting naked would never ‘elevate’ the picture.”
She was raised in a very conservative Catholic environment: “I was like, ‘These are not my people.’ My parents did the best they could with what they had. They were just trying to survive. I was raised by my grandparents and my parents—my grandmother was a very religious Catholic, and my parents became born-again Christians later. So that was hard-core. It’s very different than how [my children are] being raised. I was into God. I really went for it, man. Like, in the IE—the Inland Empire, outside L.A., where all the smog blows—they want to save your soul. The further I got into it, it wasn’t for me. But I’m very close to my family [today]. Church gave me that enlightenment, that there’s something bigger than yourself. I’m still connected to a spiritual thing, just not that.”
Feminism helped her become independent: “Where I was from, you had to answer to a man if he was the breadwinner. My mom told me that didn’t need to be the case for me—I didn’t need to rely on a man. She taught me how to hustle. I was determined to be financially independent. So I started making my own money when I was 12 [with acting]. That was freedom.”
