Actress Jessica Alba apologized to the people of Oklahoma City after plastering posters of great white sharks on electrical boxes, a bridge and a United Way billboard. Alba was photographed plastering the posters late at night and flashing the victory sign.

The posters were part of a protest group’s efforts to raise awareness of the endangered shark.

“I got involved in something I should have had no part in,” Alba said in a written statement sent to the city’s local newspaper, The Oklahoman, and to ABC News. “I realize that I should have used better judgment and regret not thinking things through before I made a spontaneous and ill-advised decision to let myself get involved with the people behind this campaign. I sincerely apologize to the citizens of Oklahoma City and to the United Way for my involvement in the incident.”

Alba was in the city shooting a movie when this event occurred.

The Associated Press reported that the police have decided not to pursue a criminal vandalism case against the starlet. None of the property holders that were defaced during Alba’s stint of activism wanted to press charges.
At least the great white sharks got a little media attention out of this incident.

Megan Fox has been named the world’s sexiest woman. The ‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’ actress topped the poll by FHMonline for the second year in a row, beating Jessica Alba into second place.

The brunette beauty is only the second woman to retain her crown in consecutive years, following in the footsteps of Jennifer Lopez who won in 2001 and 2002. Scarlett Johansson came in third, beating Jessica Biel into fourth place.

Britney Spears stormed up the chart, catapulting from last year’s number 100 to the 12th spot. This year’s chart was not just about young stars. Flying the flag for the older woman are 42-year-old actress Salma Hayek in 29th position, 40-year-old ‘Friends’ star Jennifer Aniston at number 50, and 42-year-old star Halle Berry in 61st place.

She’s always my number 1 But Megan is hot, too.

Is it not enough that Jessica Alba has already played iconic comic book characters in “Fantastic Four” and “Sin City“? Apparently not, as rumors swirl today about her involvement with yet another paneled page property.

ICv2 is reporting that Alba has acquired the screen rights to a French comic book series titled “The Insiders.” The news originated from “various French language Websites,” which also pegs Alba’s “Sin City” director Robert Rodriguez as her partner in securing the comic’s film rights.

“The Insiders” first debuted in 2002 from Jean-Claude Bartoll and Renaud Garreta, yielding seven volumes of the series in France with an eighth scheduled for this October. In the same month, Americans will also see the first volume of “The Insiders” titled Chechen Guerilla — perhaps a move to familiarize stateside audiences with Alba’s upcoming character.

Should the rumors pan out, Alba would play Najah Cruz, a Columbian woman with “the weapons expertise and combat skills of a James Bond.” In the series, Cruz is tasked with infiltrating a crime syndicate on behalf of the United States government, where she ultimately works her way into becoming the lead criminal’s body guard.

Given the long delays in “Sin City 2” and reports that a “Fantastic Four” reboot is in the works sans the original cast, Alba could be without a comic book franchise to call her own — which is why turning to “The Insiders” could be a strong move for an actress looking to stick with the genre.

On top of that, Alba’s first high-profile gig came in the form of “Dark Angel,” a James Cameron-produced television series where she played a hard-as-nails soldier of the same ilk as Najah Cruz. Truly, starring in “The Insiders” would be a return to form for the young actress.

Jessica Alba has made a donation to the United Way in Oklahoma City, where she ran into trouble for attaching a poster to one of the charity’s billboards.

The United Way of Central Oklahoma announced Alba’s donation Thursday.

Spokeswoman Erin Brewer says Alba’s lawyer asked the charity not to disclose the amount, but that Alba qualified for a program that recognizes donors who give $500 or more. Brewer deemed it “generous” and “appropriate.”

The 28-year-old actress had been in Oklahoma City filming the movie “The Killer Inside Me.”

She previously apologized for putting up posters aimed at raising awareness about the declining population of great white sharks. Police have said she will not face criminal charges.
