"Jessica Alba needs to clean her image with the mexican people"

After saying not to be of Latin origin, Jessica Alba needed to clean she's image with the Mexicans and during visit to that country to promote the film Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer, said that it felt much pride of being Latin.

 It also left itself to photograph buying clothes in a bazaar of street, Teotihuacán, Mexico. She explained that what she did, not want to offend nobody, that only made a normal commentary when she said:

 

 “Alba is my true last name, and I am proud of it, but this is everything. I am not Latin, my grandmothers had been born in California, my parents also, also I was born in the United States, therefore my inheritance is North American. During all my life I never felt me connected to a race in particular. If you to analyze geneticamente I am less Latin of Cameron Diaz, whose father is Cuban, but it nobody calls her Latin because she is blond”.
