Jessica Alba's new role as business entrepreneur

2012-01-31 1 Dailymotion

Actress Jessica Alba is adding entrepreneur to her many talents, shifting her film-star spotlight onto a new business.<br/> <br />Alba, who wed husband Cash Warren in 2008, has focused on being a hands-on parent to her two daughters.<br/> <br />The 30-year-old actress found her biggest challenge was trying to find eco-friendly natural products for both her baby and her household.<br/> <br />SOUNDBITE Jessica Alba saying (English):<br/> <br />"I did research and I found out that there are a lot of toxic chemicals in baby products and these toxic chemicals are linked to not just allergies and asthma, but also autism and ADHD and lots of childhood cancers and I was horrified that products that were made for babies and children would have these toxic chemicals."<br/> <br />This led Alba to help co-found "The Honest Company," an online business featuring an eco-friendly line of baby and household products, that were toxin-free and aesthetically pleasing.<br/> <br />While Alba's energies are focused on her children and new business, fans of the actress will be glad to know she has no plans to retire just yet, with a voice role in animated film "Escape from Planet Earth" due out next year.<br/> <br />John Russell, Reuters.
