Jessica Alba’s Latest Diet Secret
September 1st, 2007 by Rian | Filed under Jessica Alba.
OK, it (smoking) isn’t a diet - or a secret, anymore. But Jessica Alba was spotted smoking a cigarette on the set of her latest movie on Thursday.
It is a well known fact that smoking decreases appetite and helps you lose weight, and that is probably the reason she is doing it. (I can’t think of any other reason she would!)








awww, i thought she was a better person
Hmmm..the way she is smoking makes her look unattractive, and she’s usually so gorgeous! Prefer her hair a bit darker too. Perfect abs though…when she has them out!
what a moron.
Her hotness just plummeted for me, because I know she stinks like an ashtray.
Here comes the Great Smoking Debate again
She looks beautiful. She could be smoking out of stress, hopefully she can quit, not a great lifelong habit.
I think she looks sexy there,being a smoker myself.
I dont know about anyone else, but the minute I see someone (guy or girl) smoking, it immediately kills it for me. I can’t look at Katherine Heigl the same, and now her. Yuck.
This girl only famous because of her body. Her acting sucks.
Hil - Smoking makes someone less of a person?? You ppl are so judgemental…many ppl smoke at some point in their lives and who are you too judge?
Besides that, Jess Alba is overrated. Always have thought that about her..
shame that she smokes and i am surprised as she does loads of exercise apparently which the smoking wont make any easier!
Smoking is bad for your health. But so is junk food. Which do you perfer? Skinny and unhealthy or fat and unhealthy.
Yep, smoking makes you skinnier. Especially when you develop lung cancer because of it and are confined to your bed because you’re too weak to move. Great diet choice! (eyeroll)…
Thank you bliss! I am so tired of people bashing smokers…it isn’t a character trait…it’s a bad habit. A lot of people smoke but that doesn’t make them any less of a person…in fact, I know a lot of people who smoke who are better/nicer people than a lot of people who don’t smoke! I am so sick of smokers being labeled as ‘bad’ people or whatever…plus, why should anyone be surprised about Jessica Alba anyways? Like 95% of Hollywood smokes…it’s nothing new.
Wow… i really thought Alba wasn’t the type of person who would smoke (what with going on about healthy eating blah blah) maybe its for her new movie? She NEVER smokes in public…
Anyhoo, she looks good. I still prefer her with a bit of meat on, for me she is too thin at the moment.
Smoking does change how a lot of people are viewed. I, personally, can’t stand the raunchy habit, and it does make me think the smoker is less healthy. I now know Jessica Alba smells like smoke. Gross! It doesn’t mean that she isn’t a good person, but it does change my perception. Yes, most of Hollywood smokes; they set very poor examples for young people to follow! It’s too bad.
People do what they want with their own bodies. While everyone may not agree with smoking, and see some obvious cons to it, it’s certinally her choice. You can’t deny that.
She is way overrated. People who smoke get really deep wrinkles and leathery skin as they age. She probably will too.
Who cares if someone smokes or not? The fact that she is a smoker and we’ve seen only one or two photos documenting that fact means that she probably takes great care to hide that fact from the public and to not set a bad example for kids who may look up to her.
I am not a smoker, but I personally feel that people are waaaay too judgemental. Do you stare down people who are overweight, drink coffee, drink alcohol, drive over the speed limit, eat junk food, or don’t wear their seatbelts? Please…. no one’s perfect.
is just a bad habbit…everyone has one smoking just happends to be her’s big deal…it help with stress and hunger cravings…its really not as bad as everyone makes it out to be we are all gunna die one day anyway
Unfortunate that some people are willing to sacrifice a few years of their life and some element of physical ability just to be thin.
i LOVE smoking…but after 5 years of doing so, I am finally feeling the repercussions…shortness of breathe and stinky fingers. So, I am quitting this month…I’m so scared of gaining weight! LOL But for real, whoever says just because a person smokes is a bad person is basically an idiot. I guess people who bite their fingernails are bad people too?! Geez, it’s just abad habit people…they know it’s gross sooner or later. But as I said…I LOVE smoking cigs…it took like 5 or 6 years to have the effects real be noticable to me and now as I cannot run on the tredmill as long as I used to…I knwo it’s time to quit and I hate it cuz I love cigs. YUM>
she’s lost some weight recently.. pictures of her three years ago show her to look a lot “curvier”. i don’t know what she’s stressed out about but she’s really starting to bothe rme; she always looks sad or worried or angry. she needs to get over it!
ehhhh…. hopefully it’s just a once in a while closet habit.
i love her, wish she would gain a few, because i think she’s too thin, smoking is bad, bad for your health.
just have an apple or something, any fruit can kill that hunger pain, plus its better for her,she dont need cigarette to keep in shape.
what a stupid comment!! she smokes so she wants to lose weight??oh my god but someone is very too obsessed with food comments!
i dont have anything to say about her,
so instead i’ll comment on the dog. :]
had a good lol at the 2nd pic..
aha it’s face! ;P
Gross. Unhealthy. Cigarettes are cancer sticks.
Not only is smoking bad for individual health, but the second hand has been scientifically proven lethal for the poor unfortunate souls that happen to cross a disgusting smokers path. How is that being a nice human being? Go ahead and continue to kill people with your toxic waste.
She’s pretty, but nothing to write home about.
I agree with Jade. Jessica Alba has lost her appeal and allure now that I have seen her smoking. It’s so unattractive.
maybe because she’s a smoker and is addicted to nicotine? geez why should the only reason she smokes is because she wants to lose weight?
oh and to the 1st comment– smoker does not make you a bad person.
*smoking
Smoking makes someone less of a person…???
I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion. Wow. Just so you know, life will eventually put you in a situation where you’ll realize just what really does make someone less of a person.
It’s like, in the first pic… she is just smoking, minding her own business. But in the second, it’s as if she realized someone was photographing her, so she’s looking straight at them as if to say “fuck you.”
funny, she makes such a big deal about wanting to lead a healthy lifestyle.. her lungs will be as black as the pot and the kettle.
wow jess you are sooooo sweet for smoking right in front of your dog. i be he loves you girl and your nasty smoke breath. deny it all you want YOU HAVE AN EATING PROBLEM JESSICA ALBA. once you have an eating disorder it never goes away.
Honestly it she is so dolled it i personally think its a role she is playing and it requires her to smoke. I don no mayb im wrong but hey who cares she wants to smoke its her business…
There are many celebrities that will smoke 2 or 3 cigarettes a day. I bet she’s one of them and I don’t think it’s that bad if you can keep it at that level.
I did years ago and never developed a habit. Stopped out of vanity, I was afraid of developing smokers wrinkles around the mouth.
Dang, she was the one fit person that was my reason to not pick up smoking to lose weight, I always thought she would never smoke and would rather exercise to lose weight, but I guess that’s out the window.
You don’t have to be personally judgmental to say the cigarettes will probably mess up her body. At first, it can be used as a quick way to be really skinny. But it does 2 other things which can catch up with you further down the line. You get disgusted with the habeit and quit—and if careless habits you formed when your cigarette metabolism was allowing you to eat a lot without gaining are not altered—-quitting can bring back more pounds than you temporarily lost.
The other thing is, there is something about smoking which redirects where your weight is distributed—a year or two of smoking invites the weight to settle around the waistline—a place most women would rather it not go.
I think you can look at the formerly very skinny Mischa Barton to see some of these things. She is still not heavy—and I doubt she gave up smoking for very long—at one time, she was going to stop smoking to gain more curves—a tricky thing to do.
The one thing that annoys me about people smoking is the batshit crazy anti smokers it draws from the woodwork.
She looks to be alone and therefore is endangering no one else’s life but her own with the smoke.
Get over it. Really.
She is only smoking to add a little “edge” to her personality coz she is soooooooo BOOOOOOORING!!!! Unfortunately, it’s not working. She just looks stupid.
‘She looks to be alone and therefore is endangering no one else’s life but her own with the smoke.’
There’s a dog next to her. Dogs’ noses are even more sensitive than humans’. But maybe I’m wrong.
Does anyone know if dogs actually can die of cancer, because of people smoking a lot around them ? (I’m not being sarcastic, I’m really asking)
She should be able to do whatever she wants to to her body (even if it is a dirty habit), but to smoke in front of a dog is just wrong…2nd hand smoke anyone?!?
I KNEW it…the cancer stick diet. I always suspected she was a smoker. I would never start that habit because I love to work out too much. I think after a good 5 or so years of puffing on those things and I’d have a helluva time making a 6 minute mile.
Oh, and I don’t think dogs really get lung cancer from being around cig smoke, only because they don’t live long enough for it to show up. Now parrots on the other hand, that’d be interesting….anyone have a 70 year old parrot that’s lived around chainsmokers its whole life? LOL, that’d be interesting.
im quiting too … but u cant judge someone for smoking is kinda ridiculous ….
is also lame for someone to say they’re “bad” or “edgy” for smoking …
come on its a bad habbit that has possitive and negative consecuences.
plus loosing weight is a result of suppresing hunger and stuff …not that cigarrettes by themselves makesomeone skinny there’re loads of fat smokers because they smoke but eat loads never the less…
and DONT BE AFRAID TO QUIT!
smoking to keep from gaining weight is SHALOW…
and if u quit bu u’re strong enough to mantain ur eating habbits and workout u wont gain ANY
thrust me … and ull feel better…
So unattractive. Lol, like it is even possible to think any less of Alba. She is such a ‘rexic now-a-days.
I would also have to agree with Jade. I don’t think smokers are bad people, but just like when I saw the pictures of Katherine Heigl smoking…it makes you think of them differently.
Her poor dog! Didnt she hear that pets can get cancer from second hand smoke?
hehe, the people who are now whining what a crime it is to smoke near your dog… you are just so out there with your BS
whats next - neighbour calls the police cos im sexually harassing my god by taking my clothes off in doggies presence?
can one smoke next to a tree, or is the tree as a living organism going to cry tears of blood?
btw, i do not smoke, but this ‘holier than thou’ attitude is just irritating.
tanning gives you cancer, too.
get over it, betches.
It looks like she knows she’s being watched. She looks like a style smoker. The way she’s holding the cigarette and posing. It wouldn’t surprise me if this was part of her plan to change her image. Good girl goes bad. Or something to that effect.
Not holier than thou…just joking and knowing the fact people will get pissy about it. lol …like i worry about her dog. Oh no people will think I hate animals!
it’s not that i don’t like smokers as long as it isn’t around me and i love jessica alba but she should stop smokeing it makes ur teeth nasty
tons of celebs smoke……. so why the surprise that Jessica Alba smokes? i *do* agree that she’s lost a bit of weight recently, but it may not necessarily have anything to do with her smoking, duh.
plastichearts–I agree, that dog is extremely photogenic & stole the scene. (I wonder if that makes Alba really boring or her dog exceptionally personable…)
I don’t know if pets get cancer, but yawning occurs when the brain’s not getting enough oxygen…lol. & with his head hanging out the door, he might be dropping hints to his mistress that she’s just not picking up.
I think the dog’s an awkward addition… poor thing- he has to put up with her smoking. I don’t know…I think she’s gorgeous, but she annoys me at the same time. If she didn’t smoke, I’d envy her.
yea agreed! the dog is so cute! plus wat did they ever do wrong to us? we get them as pets to look out for and care for them! not give them cancer too!!! people forget! they are living things that can die from our stupid selfishness
well that sucks. and here i was thinking she was the picture of health. aaah the vice gets you one way or another, i hope she gets over it soon though =/
who cares if she smokes or not ? but then im not turned off by people who smoke .. well , whatever . think she looks great .
o please, why are there such preconcieved notions about smokers and how one should view them? I am a smoker myself and i do it because it’s one of the things that help me cope with some things that have happened in my life. So what’s your excuse for being such an asshole about it, huh? being a non-smoker doesn’t make you a better person it just makes you a non-smoker…. wow, big deal. it’s not like you’re the super advocate for a more eco-friendly existence. it’s not like you haven’t done something that has or will harm your body. it’s not like your life expectancy is going to be longer than mine because everyday everyone has the risk of having their life taken away the moment they wake up.
smoking is a habit, just like any other habit. let her do what she wants because in truth WHO THE HELL EVEN CARES! It’s not like she’s shooting up drugs or dancing on tabletops with her top off (which isn’t anything new either.) if she were doing something illegal, odd, scary, or just plain stupid then you can totally ride up her ass but i will not have you bash her or anybody because of a freaking habit that has been around since america was born.
gods, ppl, think before you speak or else you sound ignorant. and that’s really not what we want right now because we have bush representing us still.
ok. she is pretty..but has no acting ability.
i don’t really care if she smokes. i mean , i am not a huge fan of smoking…i grew up with a smoker and…..yuck. i just find it sad that she seems to have picked up the “habit” all of the sudden. i find it really hard to beleive that she has been a smoker all this time and this is the FIRST time she has been photographed smoking??? i mean, who would pick u[p smoking at this point. whatever.
Gross… it just turns my stomach to see someone smoking. I do not understand taking up this addiction… Its not like she hasn’t known her entire life that it is stupid to smoke and hurts people who don’t smoke too.
That dog is breathing in her second hand smoke… and poor dogs with their very sensitive noses are at risk of nose cancer from their pathetic smoking minders!
PLUS smokers look gross …all wrinkled mouths, bad skin colour, tired looking…
Smoking may help you suppress your appetite but is a unhealthy looking skinny… because its a DRUG duh!
They do not look fit or lean just skinny and did I mention GROSSSSS!!!!
um… I think I will be a capital J from now on. I do not smoke.
One researcher found that short-nosed dogs (like Pugs) has a 50% increase in LUNG cancer if they lived with smokers versus non smokers. SO obviously smoking isn’t great for pets either.
yea, thanks alot for that rather eloquent comment there Jamie with a capital J. (rolls eyes)
if you really think about it, there are really alot more reasons for taking up smoking (and basically any other “habit” because yes, IT IS A HABIT) There’s stress, there’s situations, circumstances, fear, boredom, trauma, growing up in a similar environment, pressure, self-loathing, depression, etc…
so, yea, sure, this may be “gross” and you can go on with your whole spiel on “it’s total grossness because it’s gross” and only done because “it’s new and in and people just want to be skinny” but think about it alittle deeper and don’t be so shallow as to think that they’re not dealing with anything more intense than a whiff or two of secondhand smoke which is possibly equivalent to ten or fifteen breaths of supposed “clean air”>> there’s no such thing cuz earth is dying.
yes, 99% of hollywood smokes, its just some hide it better than others, see the picture? paparazzi obviously had to zoom WAY
in to get that picture… i bet even oprah smokes…
She used to be the poster girl for health and fitness without succumbing to peer pressure but now just looks like a trashy bitch. At least in these pic.
I love the dog! Its her business if she smokes or not.
I can’t believe that people would be so judgemental as to say that she isn’t a good person because she smokes. Everyone has flaws. People are only human. I have smoked before. I obviously knew it was bad and that did not mean that I didn’t excercise or eat healthy foods. I find it sad that people would lower their opinion of a person just because that have a habit that is unhealhty.
WHEN SOMEONE AS YOUNG AS JESSICA ALBA SMOKES- ITS QUITE SAD. In my opinion, it really does show her stupidity and ignorance because she grew up in a generation THAT KNEW the dangers of smoking- yet she STILL chose to subject herself to such an unhealthy and addictive practice. I have sympathy to the generations before now, that were unaware of the dangers of smoking, but in today’s world, there is really no excuse! STUPID GIRL.

meant to add a “ditto” to lily’s comment.
peace
ofcourse smoking is bad for you! but you die from overweight too. i don’t see the point.
there are many other things you can chose for who aren’t great for your health; overtanning, drink, drugs…
whatever, you don’t live in the same room as she does so get over it…
no.
when someone as young as ten years old smokes - THAT is quite sad.ya’ll don’t seem to remember that we’re living with an even more messed up generation than before. age really doesn’t matter nor do the actions they do when they atleast think they’re alone. it’s what they do and how they positively affect the lives of those around them that makes them a good person or not.
omg! I thought she was smarter…
wow….
judgmental much?
of course smoking is bad for you. Of course it shortens your life expectancy. So does being overweight, drinking alcohol, not exercizing, doing drugs, eating junkfood at all, let alone more than once a week.
Pretty much every single american and european human being does one of these things wrong. Very, very few people in the western world actually are truly healthy nowadays. But for them it’s just a bad habit, it’s just a shame. But when someone smokes, it’s the end of the world? It’s not a character thing, it’s not something that makes you a bad person. It’s a bad habit. Jeez.
and of course smoke in the air isn’t good. But why are we all supposed to blame smokers? Why not people who drive cars (=a lot more people than there are smokers)? Smoking is apparently the epitome of pure evil, and I just don’t get that. It’s just a bad habit. Get over it.
PS: I don’t know anyone who started smoking to lose weight. It’s something you try once, and you like it, you try it again, and the nicotine makes it easier and easier to smoke, and you get addicted. That’s it.
I don’t think there’s nothign wrong with smoking a cigarette. I think it’s would be bad, if she was smoking pot. I think that’s stupid!
She looks beautiful and thin.
Would you all shut up about smarter… or healthier… or whatever shit.
Smoking is very deceptive. You never know how easy it is too get hooked on and maybe she has. It doesn’t take an intelligent or healthy person to avoid, it gets anyone.
I imagine it’s the stress… she doesn’t need too lose weight. x.X
Oh, and just because you smoke does not make you a bad person, it does not mean you accept it, it does not mean you think it’s okay.
Pssh posh. Little children.
This could be a still from a movie. I personally think she has an eating disorder again. She had one before her dark angel days and I fully believe its back. She had lost a lot of weight. The only reason people are not saying a lot about it, is because she still has boobs, but it ya’ll have noticed, her boobs are mad smaller then before.
wait! It can’t be from a movie still, because I think that is her dog in the back ground!!! I really think she has an eating disorder!!!
this girl has some demons
This is not a still…it looks like she casually sitting in her trailer. As a former smoker, it’s no big deal if she is or isn’t. As long as she’s not blowing it in my face or near me when I’m eating, it’s none of my business.
And for the record, the only thing that changed when I quit was my personal air quality and my sense of smell. I’m not a better person just because I don’t smoke anymore.
Do you people seriously think that eating junk food is as bad for you as smoking? Sure, in excess eating junk food can be terrible for you, but a serving of chips a day is NO WHERE NEAR as bad for you as even one cigarette! Not to mention the fact that women who smoke are TWICE as likely to develop lung cancer as men who smoke!
Just ONE cigarette causes:
-carbon monoxide levels to increase, which inhibits the body’s ability to carry oxygen throughout.
-your heart rate to increase, your blood vessels to have more trouble circulating blood (which lowers your body temp) and changes your brain activity.
-reduced lung capacity.
-increased muscle relaxation and tension at the same time (causing tremors)
Smoking between 1 and 4 cigarettes a day dramatically increases your risk of dying from heart disease. ANY cigarette is a bad cigarette, people! Comparing smoking to junk food is like comparing being run over by a semi to being run over by a bike!
Seriously…”she smokes= she will get thin”, “she smokes=she will die soon”, “she smokes=her pet will RIP, poor be-atch” “people who smoke=egotistical, not to mention unethical little t*rds”. The deterministic approach of the majority of the post ranges here from absurd to slightly demented to off your effin brains! I am a social smoker-meaning smoking only after 5 pints in the presence of educated, deep-thinkers like Alba haha! and generally I am offended when somebody puffs in front of my face in a enclosed environment. But I would NEVER go to these na zi extremes (yeah you heard me I said na zi) America is currently inder the spell of. Bad person? she will die or even worse develop wrinkles? give me a break you health freaks. you are entitled to speak only if your diet consists of raw tofu, organic vegetables and the odd decaf for a treat. also if you do not live in America, China, India and the majority of Europe but some remote Pacific island which has never heard of pesticides and nuclear tests . Until then you can STFU.
At the end of the day-did you expect some holy health choice from dear miss alba? the girl is the poster child for herpes (out there with Hilton), has clearly food issues and hangs around with the slimebag dealer wilmer wilderamma. Oh I forgot-she exercises with wii-b*llshit indeed. And she is a terrible actress and she just ranges from deadpan dumb to uber-psycho (anyone remember her lame speech about her high school boyfriend? hahaha! I showed you whats-your-name! look at me now! hos dare you turn me down? look at me!). I would enjoy it when she fades back into obcurity
healthy is beautiful-your layman’s terms are more than insulting to anybody who has ever bumped on Medicine
“-your heart rate to increase, your blood vessels to have more trouble circulating blood (which lowers your body temp) and changes your brain activity.
-increased muscle relaxation and tension at the same time (causing tremors”
are you sure you are not talking about s ex?
wow, jessica alba smokes and now people don’t like her because she smells like smoke!!! Oh no:( But when nicole ritchie battles coke, heroin and other hard core drugs, she is cute and has great fashion sense……How judgemental pple on this site are….
Ha ha..Sacharomyces cerevisiae…what a riot.
Well said indeed, well said..
omg i loved her so much….
she just seemed so perfect in every way
but now….please stop jessica!!
Smoking does not make you a bad person. It takes only 6 or 7 to addict a huge percentage of people.
It does go a long way in direction of defining yo0u as stuped.
You know what? Who cares? She is still boring and talentless.
or stupid, if you want the correct spelling.
Persephone- You left out “annoying, over rated, and full of herself”…;)
Sacharomyces cerevisiae - you are freaking amazing and i’m am entirely greatful for your input seeing as the majority of these posts give me a headache.
yuck. she is now gross in my eyes.
thank you, Sacharomyces cerevisiae.
I can think of a reason she is doing it. It’s called addiction.
I would have never thought SHE would smoke..
What a bunch of judgemental idiots… As Americans, it’s our right to choose whether to light up a cigarette or not. Get over it. I bet most of you poison your bodies on a daily basis with other toxins… even breathing the air outside!
So gross! Makes me think even less of her when I know that she is a smoker- soooooo low class
PLEASE A JESSICA AND ASHLEE POST!! JESSICA SEEMS TO HAS GAINED A LITTLE AND ASHLEE HAS LOST,SHE’S SKINNY NOW!
thats stupid smokers dont need a reason to smoke
to:
Sacharomyces cerevisiae
shut up.
go write a fukin essay for me. k?
I think she looks fine and so many people smoke these days that its nothing new nor a suprise to me that she started,
I really don’t want to hear anyone else rant about how Jessica Alba must be a bad person because she smokes unless they have a first hand account that she put out her cigarette on them. Then we will have something to discuss, otherwise leave the poor girl alone, she has enough to worry about.
You say that smoking is just a bad habit but so is using heroin. How many of u smokers out there wouldn’t judge a junkie?
At least junkies aren’t forcing drugs into anyone elses veins (the way smokers affect others lungs).
u know smoking goes with the trailer trash/granny that spends her pension on the slot machines stereotypes. Why do u do something that makes u look so unclassy?
For the record, I don’t smoke.
Look, I really am sympathetic to people with mental health issues, eating disorders, unhappy family backgrounds, etc…
However, being addicted to something can’t make another problem better, right? I think that smoking to feel better or escape troubles is self-medicating. I know smoking is legally codified, but when talking strictly about a person’s mental and physical well-being: smoking is a bad choice.
I do not think smokers are ‘bad’ people per se, I think most people do not think of smokers as ‘evil’ or something… but it is a bad choice, and the health consequences for non-smokers exposed to smokers are very real and serious.
There are lots of resources to quit smoking now from the government with all the tobacco settlements, so it might be a good time to try quitting if you are a smoker.
alina shut up.let her write what the hell she wants to write. and about this whole smoking debate, it’s never-ending so just deal. anyways, this is just a stupid way to get yourself worked up over a couple of pictures of somebody smoking. damn, people, settle down!
However I buy WAY too many pairs of jeans, so we all have our bad habits, noone is perfect!!!!! Ok, it’s late and I’m babbling….. leave Jessica alone girls, really…..
I sometimes like driving over peoples pet cats and dogs…….. but we all have our bad habits.
buying to many jeans does not wreak havoc upon ur health or the health of others. A heavy smoker is really unpleasant to stand near (whether they are smoking or not).
In case u can’t tell i wasn’t serious about the first comment.
GET OVER IT PPL!!!
Smoking is legal, it is not the most attractive habit, but all of you judgemental people should stop & think about your own bad habits for a minute… do none of you honestly do anything wrong if you say you don’t you could be slightly deluded.
If she wants to smoke it is her right!!
seriously. have those ‘non smokers’ never been out passed 2 oclock? fair enough during the day its kinda illigit but at some point in your night a drag of a cig will definately give a kick. and really… one or two years off your life? does it matter? life is life when it ends it ends.
Ok, reason she can be smoking is stress! I started smoking because of it. I was going crazy and smoking a sig gave me peace in mind for just a while. It made me calm. I do agree she has become to thin now. Like in her “dark angel” days. She admitted to have gone to far at that time with diets and sports. I can only say that she needs to watch her health now.
xx
I’m not judging her as a person, but when I have seen lots of photos of her coming out of the gym after working out, I get the impression she is very health conscious, which is understandable given the industry that she is in. Afterall, there is great competition among young actresses to be thin, toned, and all-around healthy. But, seeing her with a ciggy in her mouth contradicts this image. It’s just the contradiction that bothers me.
I didn’t know I signed up for the goody-two-shoes sect here… My oh my, some of the people here and their comments … you must either be very very young or holier than holier. Wow. I didn’t know that smoking makes you a bad person. How bad is Jessica Alba now?
So she smokes, big deal.
We all know that smoking isn’t the best choice but I think none of the smokers here need a lecture.
I have a nasty, filthy, embarrassing addiction that I’d like to confess right now, here in plain view for all the online world to see: I am addicted to TheSkinnyWebsite.com.
But lest you think, “Well, that’s not so bad, Jodi. No one is perfect. And your looking at TheSkinnyWebsite.com like 500 times a day isn’t harming anyone else!” — let me be the first to tell you that, yes, it does harm other people — those who must hear me talking about it so much!
It’s reached crisis proportions, people. I’m so upset about how it’s affecting my life — all the stress! the social ridicule! — that I fear I may have to take up another bad habit to temper the effects of this one.
Anyone got a light???
To all of the people that think less of Alba and Heigl now (knowing that they are smokers), do you also think less highly of America’s sweethearts (and longtime smokers) Drew Barrymore or Jennifer Aniston? What about the lovely Liv Tyler? Do you make exceptions for people based on their overall likeability? Because it sure seems that way…
Man. This post has gotten a tad bit out of hand, wouldn’t you say??
And Jodi- I have the number to a great therapist if you want it.
i think its perfectly fine to smoke and jodi heres an advise try not to oen it for a day and day by day you will forget and then slowly start oning it once a day
I’m a non-smoker and I don’t like her less because she smokes. I wasn’t pissed off when I saw the pictures.
Leaving ‘negative’ comments doesn’t mean you’re freaking out.
? smoking is bad for you and gross but that doesn’t make someone a “bad person”. great people often do dumb things and aren’t immune to bad habits, blah blah blah. not that i know anything about whether alba is a good person or not, she seems wildly overrated as an actress but could be a sweetheart for all any of us know. i understand being grossed out but not all the high & mighty preaching.
non-smokers can preach if we want to. We don’t stink out places or other peoples clothes and hair and we don’t release toxic chemicals into the air for others to breath.
I think it’s fair to say a non-smoker is more moral than a smoker. I do things that are bad for my health but i don’t do anything that would put others in danger.
Obviously she’s becoming like mary kate. Seriously…she isn’t the person to smoke. I think deep inside…she’s obsessed w/ her body image. i won’t be surprised if i see her thinner than her regular slim self in couple weeks…
Why is everyone ragging on the girl, so what she smoked a cigareette, get over it!! She’s probably a closet smoker..hello…they do exist. She probably was stressed or bored waiting on set so she decided to light one up. No i do not smoke but i’m not one to judge others because they do!
disgusting.
“A non-smoker is more moral than a smoker.”
I go out of my way to avoid being near a non-smoker when I light up. And if I accidentally walk into someone’s path, I apologize, try to wave it away, even if they have a cigarette in their own hand.
Just because I choose to smoke doesn’t mean that I have a right to shorten the life span of someone choosing not to smoke.
Additionally, I’m 30, and I get carded every single time I buy cigarettes. I also smoke nearly 2 packs a day.
Jodi….I’ve got a 12-inch….I mean 12-step program to help you!
wow so people go all irrational and crazy with hate when a celeb smokes…OK
I always hated Alba, ever since Dark Angel when she used to talk smack about Buffy! But I really don’t care at all that she smokes. Oh well, hopefully it ruins her looks and I don’t have to hear about how ‘hot’ she is all the time
maybe she just smokes because it’s a habit? lots of people just smoke to calm their nerves, or for the enjoyment of it, not necessarily because it makes you thin. i know a lot of people are obsessed with their weight, but i don’t think every aspect of a person’s personality is motivated by that.
it’s not like she was caught doing heroin or whatever. calm down.
I’m just going to ignore that she has a cig in her mouth.
She needs to get back to her curvier days. Whatever that movie was with her in a baithing suit the whole time. My god! Best body ever! Everything..hour glass figure, tiny waist, beautiful face, and hair..and her butt! Yum!!!
She needs to stop trying to be so skinny these days. I mean she was already thin to begin with! It is OKAY to have curves!!!!!
Shouldn’t working out as much as she does have a calming effect on her? I don’t know why she would feel stressed out if she’s hitting the gym all of the time.
What a shame she wastes herself smoking..
yeah I think of celebs differently when I see them smoking. I think, “Now she seems kind of fun.”
so, is this how my younger generation of women spend their days? I hope you are doing something with your own lives. As a doctor I will tell you that yes smoking is unhealthy, but it is done for reasons other than weight loss. It helps people manage anxiety. I don’t say this as an advertisement for smoking, but rather to quiet the vast moral, judgemental group of you who so clearly are sad, insecure haters. Please aspire to more.
Ewww!! Gross! Imagine how stanky her breath is? How her lungs look? Everyone knows what smoking does to your body. Why would she do that to herself? To look skinnier than what she is? She already looks like an ironing board.
America’s sweetheart has a flaw! Thank goodness! The woman is perfect in just about every sense.
who cares.
YOU PEOPLE SMELL LIKE ASS SHUT UP iTS NOt YOUR DECISION IF SHE SMOKES YOU ASS TRAYS! BOIYAKASHAH MUTHA FAAAA>!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ♥ love
Smoking is cool, well done Jess.
wow hope she wasn’t preggers there lol
I did not know Jessica was a smoker. I love her and her movies. She is an idol to a lot of girls. And if those girls who look up to her know that she is smoking they might want to do it too!!!!
“It is a well known fact that smoking decreases appetite and helps you lose weight”
you should really watch what you write..
it is assumed and thought to help with weight loss through some form of suppression of appetite (or the fact your mouth is charred or any food would smell like smoke)
but its not a fact that smoking aids weight loss and to suggest so is problematic.
I’d prefer reading in my native language, because my knowledge of your languange is no so well. But it was interesting! Look for some my links:
She defintaley looks like a smoker
I smoke, but it is really fun, when I started I didn’t know it helped with weight.
