Jessica Alba's secret nuptials
Jessica Alba has got married in a secret ceremony. The 'Fantastic Four' actress tied the knot with fiance Cash Warren on Monday (19.05.08), her spokesperson has confirmed. The couple applied for a marriage license at Beverly Hills Courthouse at 11.30am, and after a 40-minute wait for the paperwork to be completed, they then wed with no friends or family present.
Jessica, 27, wore a long blue casual dress, and had her hair in a ponytail, while Cash donned a white shirt and brown trousers. The couple was pronounced husband and wife under an arch of green silk and white flowers. A source at the courthouse said: "Jessica looked happy but nervous." The ceremony was so secret that even Jessica's family didn't know it had taken place. Jessica's brother Josh told Us Weekly magazine: "My sister is married!? I'm going to have to call her!" Cash and Jessica got engaged last December, after revealing Jessica was expecting the couple's first child. The baby - reportedly a girl - is due in early summer.
-----------------------------Jessica Alba's baby break
Jessica Alba is planning to take a break from acting after having her baby. The 'Fantastic Four' actress - who is expecting her first child with fiancé Cash Warren in June - will be in no rush to get back to work following the birth.
She said: "I'm just going to sit back and figure out what this whole experience of being a mother is all about, and taking that in." Jessica also revealed when she eventually returns to the movie industry, she would like to work with movie producer Cash. She added: "I wouldn't mind doing something with Cash. He's incredibly smart and very business-savvy. I think him being part of anything means it's going to be progressive and successful."
Meanwhile, Jessica has revealed her latest movie 'The Eye' was the "toughest" project she has ever done. She said: "For several reasons, this is up there with the toughest movies I've done. We shot a lot in a very short space of time and I'm in pretty much every single scene from beginning to end." 'The Eye' is a remake of 2002 Hong Kong film 'Gin gwai'. It focuses on a blind woman who has a corneal transplant which allows her to see into the future.
-------------------------------Jessica Alba's house panic
Jessica Alba is terrified her house won't be ready before she gives birth. The 'Fantastic Four' actress - who is expecting her first child with fiancé Cash Warren in May - has been redecorating her whole house in preparation for the baby but says time is running out to finish it. She said: "I'm just trying to get my house ready before the baby comes. It's kind of hectic, it's getting close and the house isn't even ready yet.
"I'm used to having to be somewhere all the time, and it's kind of the first time in my life where I really haven't been working in a while, and now it's just about the baby being healthy, the house being ready, and nesting, it's really different. It's cool - I feel like I'm fully absorbing the whole experience."
Jessica also revealed she is shocked by how much her appetite has grown and admits the pregnancy is starting to take its toll. She added: "I have to make sure that I'm eating more of the right nutrients and vitamins, but I'm not used to eating this much. I've had to take time out of the day to eat before I get cranky and rundown and tired. Before I was just like the energizer bunny." The 26-year-old says she is busy planning her wedding, but refused to give away any details about the ceremony.
-------------------------------Jessica Alba's birth bracelet
Jessica Alba has given friends leather bracelets and told them not to take off until after she gives birth. The 'Fantastic Four' actress - who is expecting her first child with fiancé Cash Warren in May - had a baby shower in Los Angeles' Ever After Tea Shop, where guests including Kim Kardashian and Rashida Jones were asked to take part in the bizarre ritual. An onlooker said: "Jessica made sure everyone was wearing a leather bracelet before they all launched into a 'life, love, health' prayer. She then told them they aren't allowed to take the bracelets until the baby is born."
Guests at the shower, which was held earlier this month, were treated to skewers of tiger shrimp and chicken, mini doughnuts and strawberries dipped in white and dark chocolate, washed down with drinks such as white wine, lemonade, iced coffee and milkshakes. While most of the gifts Jessica received were in yellow or green, the 26-year-old actress reportedly told guests she is expecting a baby girl. Jessica and Cash are rumored to be naming their daughter Honor Warren.
-----------------------------------Jessica Alba's ham hunger
Pregnant Jessica Alba is addicted to ham and cheese sandwiches. The 'Fantastic Four' actress, who is expecting her first child with fiancé Cash Warren, is currently in Paris, France, and is taking full advantage of local delicacy Croque Monsieur - the French name for the calorific snack. She wrote on her official blog: "Every day I have eaten ham and cheese sandwiches, I can't get enough of them. I really wish they had these back in the US, the bread is amazing!"
Jessica is enjoying seeing her body expand and blossom as she nears the third trimester of her pregnancy before she is due to give birth on June 8. She added: "My tummy is getting bigger by the second and the little one must like the food too because it is moving and kicking like crazy. It's just the best!" The 26-year-old beauty has also been enjoying Paris Fashion Week while she is in the city, and was particularly impressed with Amy Winehouse's performance at the opening of a new Fendi boutique. She said: "I went to the Lanvin show and the Rodin museum in Paris, which were both amazing. I also saw Amy Winehouse perform. She has such an incredible voice. She's definitely a throwback - reminiscent of Ella Fitzgerald."
