Glam Belleza Latina cover
Alba appears on the cover of the Fall 2014 issue of Glam Belleza Latina magazine. She talks about how race is important to her identity, Latinas she admires, and the difference between her business and movie career.
Having a company that’s making the world a better place is a life calling. Performing has also been a life calling, but they’re so different. It takes a completely different side of my brain to do one versus the other. But I’m truly very proud of The Honest Company.
Jessica Alba interview
Alba and Conan discuss Alba’s action figure on Conan.
I have them in storage, it’s weird to have them around the house.
British GQ cover
Alba appears on the cover of the August 2014 issue of British GQ magazine. She talks about Paul Walker, the Sin City sequel, and her body.
“I have to enhance what I like about my body and my stomach is good. My legs I’m not as excited about all the time, but I wouldn’t cover up my stomach. That’s what women do. Enhance what we’ve got.
Self cover
Alba appears on the cover of the August 2014 issue of Self magazine. She talks about marriage frustrations, being in her 30’s, and food.
I have the same food philosophy for myself as I do for my kids. We eat mostly lean protein and fresh fruit and vegetables, nothing processed or from a box, if we can. For me, when I don’t eat a ton of carbs, I have more energy. But I’ll for sure have a piece of chocolate. I will mow through a bowl of guacamole. If I’m not going to have dessert, I’ll have a martini.
Maxim cover
Alba appears on the cover of the September 2014 issue of Maxim. She discusses her self worth and journey in Hollywood with the magazine.
If you put your whole identity behind this business, it’s brutal. It chews you up and spits you out; it spits out a lot of people.
Cosmopolitan France cover
Alba appears on the cover of the June 2014 issue of Cosmopolitan France magazine.
Entertainment Weekly cover
Alba appears on the cover of the May 30/June 6 2014 issue of Entertainment Weekly. She tells EW that she isn’t into R-rated movies.
I don’t watch sexy movies, it makes me uncomfortable!
Glamour cover
Alba appears on the cover of the June 2014 issue of Glamour. She reveals why she won’t do nudity when acting.
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.
Redbook cover
Alba appears on the cover of the April 2014 issue of Redbook magazine. She talks about Craigslist, her biggest confessions, and kissing her kids on the mouth.
I bought my hot pink desk off Craigslist. I have a problem. I love vintage furniture, and refurbishing is one of the most eco things you can do. I also got a couple of cool chairs and Danish mid-century credenzas off of Craigslist.
Nylon cover
Alba appears on the cover of the March 2014 issue of Nylon magazine. She talks about choosing different roles and learning to be herself.
Before, I was so fearful of failure and judgment that I was scared to put myself out there. You don’t have to be a robot. You don’t have to be appropriate all the time. I used to be so hard on myself … but you have to realize that as long as you don’t make a habit of it, tomorrow will be here, and everything will be OK.
Health cover
Alba appears on the cover of the October 2013 issue of Health magazine. She talks about her younger body, wearing a corset, and her diet.
To me, it’s knowing that if you eat unprocessed fresh food — it doesn’t all have to be organic, but try to have the least amount of GMOs [genetically modified organisms] and pesticides — you have energy, aren’t starving and don’t have to count calories. When I’m ‘dieting,’ I’m not eating as many snacks — because I love snacks. Popchips, Pirate’s Booty – or I could eat a pound of fruit. So I cut down on snacking when I’m trying to be healthy.
Glamour UK cover
Alba appears on the cover of the May 2013 issue of Glamour UK magazine. She explains to the magazine how you can get rich by setting up a business.
I set up my own business – and now I can help you!
Latina cover
Alba appears on the cover of the April 2013 issue of Latina magazine. She talks about choosing roles and non-toxic baby products.
It’s really hard to find baby products that use nontoxic chemicals that moms can trust. Major corporate brands that label their products ‘eco-friendly’ or ‘nontoxic’ are usually referring to the way they make their packaging, not their product.
In Style cover
Alba appears on the cover of the February 2013 issue of In Style magazine. She talks about knowing her husband was the one, what she’s learned from motherhood, and her style.
My style is more adventurous since I became a mom. In the past, I was into my uniform of leggings and a sweater. Now I’m willing to try bold prints, bright colors, and different cuts. Never say never, but I probably won’t ever wear booty shorts. I feel pretty confident about that.
Self cover
Alba appears on the cover of the September 2012 issue of Self magazine. She talks about her workout routine, The Honest Company, and going from Hollywood to the business world.
It’s awesome—it really does feel like this is my third baby. It’s a deep passion of mine and I spend all my time at the office. I think it’s a nice balance to Hollywood because it’s so free and it’s so creative and so much of what you do is in someone else’s hands, essentially and this is something that I could actually control and I could see something from the beginning to the end and there’s something really wonderful and fulfilling about that. Especially when it was so hard to get it going for so long. For it to actually be here and exist is pretty cool.
Parenting cover
Alba appears on the cover of the April 2012 issue of Parenting magazine. She talks about her kids and the press, what inspired her to launch natural products, and what matters most.
Before I had kids, I was always so focused on my career…Nothing else really matters to me [now] aside from my children and their well-being.
Los Angeles Confidential cover
Alba appears on the cover of the March 2012 issue of Los Angeles Confidential magazine. She talks about balancing career and motherhood, her style changing, and how motherhood changed her.
I feel like I’ve finally come into my own and become the person I always should have been, or that I always wanted to be. I feel more grounded, free and comfortable in my own skin than I ever have. The paradigm just shifted completely to my family.
Jessica Alba interview
Seacrest interviews Alba during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about how she lost the weight after her pregnancy.
I ate better, all organic and fresh food, tried to stay away from packaged and processed food, and I exercised. I was looking for safe and healthy products to give my baby. I read that there are so many toxic chemicals in our everyday products, even in baby products. I was completely horrified.
