"[The paparazzi are] f*ckers! They do this [follow] to me every day. And every day there's no story. I'm not doing drugs. I'm not running over people. I'm not going to clubs. I'm not dating anyone famous. I'm not doing anything interesting! I don't get it. I'm the most boring chick ever."

Jessica Alba: “I’m ready to be a mum”
Sex symbol Jessica Alba has spoken out about her pregnancy, insisting: “I’m ready to be a mum.”

Alba stunned fans when she announced she was pregnant at 26, coming just after numerous rumors of problems in her relationship with boyfriend Cash Warren.

But the Fantastic Four beauty insisted that she is happier than ever. “I’m madly in love,” she says of Warren. “I come from a huge family and I’m the oldest of 15 cousins, so I’ve known I’ve wanted kids.

“I’m ready to be a mum, and it’s a really happy time for us and our families.”

The pregnancy will delay her career and being a mum could change her public profile as a single sex symbol. But Alba insists a good business brain is behind her success - not her sex appeal.

“I think there are ambitious girls who will do anything to be famous,” she says. “Contrary to how people may feel, I’ve never used my sexuality. That’s not part of it for me.

“When I’m in a meeting, I want to tell you why I’m an asset, how I’m a commodity, how I can put asses in the seats, not, ‘There’s a chance you’re going to be able to f**k me’.

“That’s never been my deal.”

Under the headline ‘Don’t Mess With Jess’, the star made numerous attacks on her co-stars and fellow actors.

Of meeting ‘High School Musical’ hunk Zac Efron, Alba says: “He looks like a child with a lot of makeup on. I was like, ‘My God, you’re just a little kid’.”

She also dismissed a journalists claims that Eva Mendes was worthy of consideration as a Hollywood leading lady, with Jessica saying the only dark skinned leading ladies out there are “Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry, me”. “Mendes,” she said. “But is Mendes greenlighting movies?”

She is most dismissive of Into The Blue co-star Paul Walker. “Paul was the lead, Paul helped develop it. You wouldn’t believe how much that kid got paid! And I don’t think he did one ounce of publicity,” she complained.

She thought their film together was “dumbed down for no reason” - but that still fairs better than her recent comedy Good Luck Chuck. “It’s porn!” she complained. “It wasn’t supposed to be like that.

“There were all these actresses who got conned into being completely naked."
“Every day when I was done I ran away."

“As long as they didn’t disrespect me, I couldn’t give a rat’s butt.”

Even her family does not escape criticism.

When I go to Mexico, I want to go to see the pyramids, to earn about the history. “My parents want to go to Senor Frogs every day.”

One person who it is not so surprising she attacks is Michael Weatherly, her former fianc?e.

He was my first love,” she admits. “The way I grew up was tat you marry the first person you have sex with. That’s the way everyone in my family is.”

But it wasn’t to be - and it put her off dating celebrities. “F***in’ actors, man,” she says. “No more actors. I like to work with them, but I don’t need to be in a relationship with one.”

Alba laughed off reports that she is ashamed of being Latina. “Of course I’m proud f my heritage!” she insisted. “That’s all I know! I only know a Mexican-American upbringing.”

But she admitted that her ethnicity has made it hard finding the right roles. “Nobody really knows what to do with me,” she said. “I’m half Latin, but I grew up in the States, and I cant get roles playing a Latina because I don’t speak Spanish.

“And I don’t want to be the best friend, or the promiscuous girl, or the maid, because those stereotypes still exist with Latin roles.

“I want to be a leading lady.”

She dismissed other Latin stars who complain that their heritage stops them reaching their goals. “I thought that because I have brown skin shouldn’t make any difference,” she said. “Why should only Aryan-looking girls be that girl? Really, I say, your skin colour has hindered you that much?”

In an interview where she dismissed many others, she also seemed to dismiss one other celebrity - herself.

Alba insisted she could not understand why people are so interested in her life. “I’m not doing anything interesting,” she insisted. “I don’t get it.

“I’m the most boring chick ever.”
