This is probably why her movies suck.
I was a fan of Jessica
Alba. Until I
read this..
:
"I've got cousins galore. Mexicans just spread all
their seeds. And the women just pop them out."
"My grandfather was the only Mexican at his college,
the only Hispanic person at work and the only one at
the all-white country club. He tried to forget his
Mexican roots, because he never wanted his kids to be
made to feel different in America. He and my
grandmother didn't speak Spanish to their children.
Now, as a third-generation American, I feel as if I
have finally cut loose."
"My grandfather was the only one in our family to go
to college. He made a choice not to speak Spanish in
the house. He didn't want his kids to be different."
"[Before] I always felt like such an outcast and now
I feel like people are more diverse ethnically. I was
always self conscience of my puffy lips and darker
skin when I was a kid, because I felt like I didn't
fit in. And now its mainstream, and color isn't as
big of a deal and if anything its better."
"My whole life, when I was growing up, not one race
has ever accepted me, … So I never felt connected or
attached to any race specifically. I had a very
American upbringing, I feel American, and I don't
speak Spanish. So, to say that I'm a Latin actress,
OK, but it's not fitting; it would be insincere."
"Alba is my last name and I'm proud of that. But
that's it. My grandparents were born in California,
the same as my parents, and though I may be proud of
my last name, I'm American. Throughout my whole life,
I've never felt connected to one particular race or
heritage, nor did I feel accepted by any. If you
break it down, I'm less Latina than Cameron Diaz,
whose father is Cuban. But people don't call her
Latina because she's blonde."
Racial Bitch!
