Biography
Jessica got her big break in Camp Nowhere because her hair matched the actress' who's role she got when the original actress had to pull out at the last moment.
Jessica Marie Alba relocated with her family (her Spanish/Mexican-American father was in the Air Force) several times before finally settling down in Southern California. The Alba family moved to Biloxi, Mississippi, then back to California, followed by Del Rio, Texas, and finally back to the West Coast.
Jessica is a PADI-certified scuba diver.
On the set of filming Flipper (1996) she recieved numerous threats for her kidnapping on the phone by an unknown man.
She was chosen to play Max on Fox's Dark Angel. James Cameron (Producer), and Charles H. Eglee (Producer), say they knew she was the perfect one for the job as soon as they met her. They said she was outgoing, and had a great personality. Rumor has it that she was also chosen because of the fact that she looks like no identifiable ethnicity, which is supposed to be the same as Max.
