She's Jess the best

Almighty Alba

We're not going to dress this up with a lot of empty phrases: put simply, Jessica Alba is hot.

She's got a bum crying out for a string bikini and a belly so tight you could scrub your washing on it.

Jessica is part of an elite coterie of movie stunners who's tried to sell a movie on the shapeliness of their posterior alone, as seen in diver 'thriller' Into the Blue with Paul 'Fast and the Furious' Walker – soon to be topping the teenage boy illegal download chart.

In fact, she may have to keep an eye on being typecast: Honey and Sin City both concentrated on Jessica's acting strengths - namely that finely toned bod.

It's a marketing ploy that worked, so it was kind of strange when the studio powers thought it would be a winning idea to cast one of the globe's sexiest young actresses as Sue Storm in the Fantastic Four.

Why? Because Sue Storm is also known as the Invisible Woman – say goodbye to those smoking curves!

But, for someone who doesn't mind showing off the skin, Jessica's really a wholesome girl deep down; apparently a born-again Christian, she's recently been spitting legal action at Playboy for making her a covergirl against her wishes, with the inference that her naked nips would be on show inside. Spoilsport.

Meanwhile, Jessica is trying to shake off her bod-first-acting-later tag by possibly starring in one of those musical biopics made so popular by Ray and Walk the Line – as, wait for it, Belinda Carlisle!

Well, we certainly Get Weak when we see Jessica, and it's true that Heaven Is A Place On Earth when she's doing that bikini-plus-water thing.

But Jessica as ginger Melinda? We don't know if we Feel the Magic...should we stop now?
