Biography
Hollywood hottie Jessica was raised in a traditional Latin-American Catholic home, and despite appearing constantly scantily clad on the covers of lads mags across the globe, has a strict no nudity clause in her acting contracts.
Starting out as a child model at 11, she moved into TV with minor roles in The Secret Life of Alex Mack and Flipper! Her breakout role came in the Drew Barrymore rom-com Never Been Kissed in 1999 and she landed a big TV break the following year in James Cameron’s cybersci-fi hit Dark Angel.
She’s gone on to become an international sex symbol starring as sexy strong females in comic adaptations Sin City and the Fantastic Four franchise. Along the way she’s won her fair share of Razzies for performances in Hollywood flops like The Love Guru and Good Luck Chuck.
Jessica then took on a surprisingly dark role in the acclaimed but incredibly violent noir The Killer Inside Me alongside Casey Affleck. Any street cred she earned instantly dissipated with her follow-up rom-com fluff Valentines Day, and her forthcoming role in Spy Kids 4 isn’t such an inspired choice for a lady that complains about never being taken seriously as an actress.
At 20 Jessica got engaged to Dark Angel co-star, Michael Weatherly. He was 12 years her senior, she was still a virgin and her religious parents weren’t too pleased. The couple split in 2003 and since May 2008, Jessica’s been married to Cash Warren, having two daughters, Honor and Haven.
