SEXY actress Jessica Alba has revealed watching a scantily-clad Beyonce on TV helped her feel comfortable playing a stripper in new film Sin City.
The 23-year-old Latino lovely flashes her curves in the movie adaptation of the cult comic, which also stars Bruce Willis, and she admits she found the prospect very daunting - until she watched gorgeous Beyonce in her music video.
She said: "I get self-conscious, but you have to just embrace it and go with it.
"I was so nervous during Sin City because I play a stripper. I wore chaps and little underwear. My butt cheeks were hanging out! It was so embarrassing.
"I remember being in my underwear in my hotel room, trying to get comfortable with my Sin City role.
"Beyonce's Baby Boy video kept coming on MTV, and all she had on was a short little thing, and she's grooving around and she has this gorgeous womanly body.

This is news?
No more or less than any thread in the chat section of FR.
She ain't my cup of tea, but I know she has some fans here in Freeperdom.
"I remember being in my underwear in my hotel room, trying to get comfortable with my Sin City role."
I'd a helped you out with that. All you had to do was ask.
I love these confessional interviews. They should all consist of "I was doing this thing that'll get you all worked up, but I'm going to pretend it was a horrible ordeal so you'll come to my movie and see the result of this horrible ordeal I endured."
Kinda reminds me of the people involved with Saving Private Ryan telling everyone with a camera "Hey, DON'T see this movie if you don't like violence, because MAN is this movie violent, and I know you people don't like that sort of thing so PLEASE, stay away because this is one violent movie! I mean, you've never seen this much violence before so, hey, I'm practically telling you you can't handle it, so PLEASE don't come see it!" I was pleased when William Goldman picked up on this and wrote about it.
You're not mad at me anymore?
No, I meant the fact that a newspaper decided to waste ink on it.
Well, I sure wouldn't throw her out of bed for eating crackers and getting crumbs on the sheets...
No, you did such a bad job at backpedalling on your screwup I can't be. I don't hold grudges against the retarded. :P
Is that Beyonce? She looks like a mezcan...
got it. Sometimes takes awhile.
I believe she's half white/half black but I could be wrong.
"I believe she's half white/half black but I could be wrong."
Her dad is Mexican-Indian and Spanish and her mom is Danish and French.
Jessica or Beyonce?
I was referring to Beyonce.
Sorry, Jessica Alba.
Beyonce's mom is a Lousiana Creole of French/black/American Indian ancestry.
