Entrepreneur and actor Jessica Alba joins MSNBC’s Ari Melber for a candid conversation, as Alba opens up about how her Mexican heritage drove her to pursue acting, and how her health struggles as a child inspired her to start a beauty company. Alba also discusses what it means to see women of color represented in media, and reflects on her pandemic-era interview with former President Barack Obama in this extensive conversation with MSNBC’s Ari Melber for the newest installment of “Mavericks with Ari Melber,” a series of interviews with artists, musicians and cultural icons.

I fell head over heals for her in Dark Angel, I even named my oldest daughter Max way back in 2002. It’s been so inspiring watching Jessica grow as a person, business woman and a mom over the years. 🤘

Man, the beginning part of this hits hard. I'm half Mexican, born in 1968. Gpa came to the US. My dad failed first grade because he didn't speak English well enough, as the family lore goes. He passed recently and was a total right wing bigot at the end. I'm so conflicted because I don't really miss the fool he became. Thanks for the therapy session!

As a multiracial brown man who is black i am learning about what she’s been up to during this interview for the first time and I am incredibly moved. This is a great recruitment tool for this company and all others who WILL follow in her footsteps. Great job Jess! ❤️ And also Hi Ari. Been watching since you were a contributor. And fyi my DVR records you daily for how ever many years it’s been now! Congratulations on the evolution of your amazing platform and POV! And love the random lyric drops…truly unique. You have set yourself apart from the others and the competition and developed, like Jessica, your own lane. I SUGGEST THAT YOUR GUESTS RETURN IN A SPECIAL TO INTERVIEW YOU ARI MELBER…MAVERICK! (P.S. if you ever read this please pass my love and sincere gratitude to Rachel, Joy, Nicole, Chris, Lawrence, Steph, Yasmin, Ali, Mehdi, and so many of you wonderful people that my tv is permanently set to the family station daily.

America has a really dark past but at the same time huge steps have been done to find common ground, law peace and order.

So this simplification by this beautiful lady is not quite right.

@2smoulder Ай бұрын

I’ve always taken Jessica at face value and regarded her as a beautiful, yet slightly under whelming actor. Jessica uses the narrative “they” a lot, yet lives in an unreal world, which tends to say that she’s great much of the time. The admission of Covid as a huge revelation was revealing, as if she could affect former Pres. Obama through Zoom! As an actor rejection is a daily occurrence because directors and casting is looking for a certain something, but probably not racist as she suggests. I’m guessing that Jessica’s qualities came from from equality of opportunities she may not realise, even today. I’ve just watched her latest movie Trigger Point, which was good until it ran out of steam. I’m glad she’s happy with her life and her firm Honest, yet still don’t fully appreciate the racist/toxic nature of the society she exists in. She should use her now privileged position as a force for good, if she also understands that’s it not about her, but about those she can help, which I think she does. There’s always an argument about genetics vs environment and which shapes an individual the most. Only Jessica can answer how this affects her and “her truth”. Being “curious” is a quality we all can benefit from though.

She is an amazing business woman if she really did all the is alone. It that’s not true. We keep pushing the exception to the rule. It would take four women to replace one man doing true construction and moving tons of material. Women can’t replace men on the battle field. Modern black women act like they won the civil war, freed the slaves and saved the union and act like black men just can’t “keep up” with them. What is the end game here? Women are not the true captain. This has to be just for views from female viewers because I don’t understand why the feminist narrative is still being pushed. They can’t defeat men in any way, so why do we keep talking about it.

She really is not the brightest, which gets accentuated in this interview. In every single interview, she tells the same old stories (some of them clearly made up). Made a career out of being beautiful, despite being a very bad actress, got approached by Wall Street sharks to put their face on the Honest brand and lucked out. Said earlier on she doesn't wanna be called a Latina and once it became popular to be Latina, she doesn't stop calling herself Hispanic and a Chingona lol
