Why Did She Even Bother???
Filed under: Jessica Alba > Barack ObamaA bunch of Latino stars, including Alejando Sanz and Paulina Rubio, have banded together to make a video for Barack Obama.
They're all speaking Spanish in it, except for Jessica "Don't Call Me Latina" Alba, who speaks in English.
Her presence there is so laughable!

Why is she so scared to be called Latina? I dont get that. Is she mixed with other things so she doesnt want to be called just one race?
Not that it matters anyways….
Go Obama(it aint gonna happen tho)!
biggest bitch in hollywood
lmaoooo she sucks
so just because a bunch of stars chant "Obama" people are gona go vote for him? Silly Americans…
she is a joke. seriously why is she even in this?
PEREZ FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!
i remember seeing that jessica alba part in a diff. obama video so the obviously just added her ….she didn't film her part for that exact video
She looks so embarassed to even be in the commercial. Her body language just says it all. Just because you WERENT raised Latina, doesn't mean your blood isn't Latino.
She's so stupid. Trying to be white. You're not white honey!!!!!!!!
she's muy stupido!
FIRST…..
maybe she cannot speak Spanish
shes a fake
OMG she has NO right being there!!! shes not proud of her heritage and thats a slap in the face to all of us latinos to put her there!
whoever put her there is fucking ridiculous.
LMAOO she looks so fucking stupid!
Why does everyone think she is so hot? She's cute, but she is not gorgeous and has absolutely no sex appeal. She's definitely no Angelina Jolie in the looks department.
What a lame comment from Alba - it had nothing to do with Obama.
I LOVE YOU ALEJANDRO SANZ!!!
She is so pathetic… have some pride in who you are and where you came from!
It wouldn't have killed her to learn a line or two and speak some Spanish! I took enough Spanish classes over the years to understand almost everything those celebs were saying, and I don't even consider myself fluent!!! She's REALLY stupid, though.
She's such a twat.
ALEJANDRO SANZ!!!
}I LOVE YOU!!
couldn't they teach her anything in spanish? should have been cut!!!
She threw the whole video off. Why couldn't she have just said that in spanish? I think thet was the whole point to the video…
SANZ!!!
Perez, she tells people she is Pakistani. It's so obviously not true. She is Latina and she is so ashamed. She should brush up on her spanish or at least say something that makes her believable. I find her fake and garbage. She also is so not hot.
perez, why do you discriminate against latinos who've been in this country for more than a couple of generations? any group of people whose ancestors have been here for more than 2 generations lose their ability to speak the earlier language - certainly they don't speak it as a "mother tongue". imagine your grandchildren. will they speak Spanish and identify so completely with being Cuban as you do? I sincerely doubt it, no matter how hard you might try.
what was the point of having her in that commercial anyway? she didnt add anything to it.
She does seem out of place. Who allowed her to do that if the ad is targeted towards a spanish audience? I must say however that the ad is like a bad reggae vid. LOSE THE SONG!! JUST LET THE PEOPLE SPEAK (without jessica) THEIR MINDS WITHOUT THAT DUMB ASS SONG IN THE WAY!
Awkward.
i seriously dont know why they added her into this video,everyone was together as one representing latinos and latinas and here comes ms."dont call me latina"alba speaking in english.i seriously think shes such an embarassment to all latinos for not wanting to be called latina.she IS hispanic and she should be proud of her race
Good for her. After all, last time I checked ENGLISH is still the official language of the United States…not Spanish.
She is not Paki. She tells people she's Pakistani too. She's an insult to her culture. She makes me ill. BARF! Jessica Alba is disgusting and so fake.
WTF…. Why is she there for?? just because her last name is LATINO WTF,,, she is so PATETIC!!!!! and she looks FATTTTTTTT,,,,, i hate her!!! ans si soy latina!!!!!
oh that's just wrong she needs to learn spanish…get wit the program girl
WHAT A DISGRACE!!!!
Shit, why did she even bother?? Why does she even bother with anything she does? Seriously, go away, Alba.
HAHAHHAHAHAHAH!!!!!
I still don't understand why us as a latin community want to make her something she is not.. she doesn't want to be latina, oh well her life! If she isn't willing to accept her origins then let her be, she doesn't deserve the attention the latin community want to give her! Just don't mix her with the latinos!
Cool vid. I saw Lila Downs. She looks amazing.
why is she even in this? That is so stupid. Everyone is speaking in spanish and then there she is! wow.
No Perez you are FN dumb!!!
If she is ashamed the why is she even in the video.
Let it go Perez.
She sucks what a fake!!!!
This is so pathetic half of the people on that video (Paulina, Alejandro,…) are not citizens and therefore they cant vote! Paulina was even denied her right to apply cause she gave positive on the drug test
Hey Perez..I'm sure your Spanish sucks too! Get off her case! I don't know why you are so obsessed with her like you are? Maybe you want to be pretty Hollywood actress, and God just made you a fat, ugly drag queen blogger!
So what you're saying is that "latinos", "hispanics" or whatever term is politically correct today can't understand English? Last time I checked, English was the language of the United States and she is choosing to speak the language of her birth nation. What's laughable about that? You are such a petulant asshole. Your site sucks. You suck. Wait til karma comes looking for you.
Jessica Alba is such a fake and disgusting person. Not to mention a terrible actress.
that's because she doesn't want to be associated with spics who stab people, steal, and have 15 kids by the time they're 23 years old.
Why is that clown even in the video??? She should have at least made an effort to learn some Spanish for this video. All the other artists are real artists who are extremly proud of their raices. Go LationS!!!! Si Se Puede.
SECOND! and i think she is beautiful..
He need to stop acting like hi is a latino. I am so over Obama! Used to like the guy but hi is to mush to deal with! Jessica "Don't Call Me Latina" Alba needs to stop try to be cute latina it doesn't work for her she was trying for to long to hide her latina said!
what a skank..SHES SUCH A DISSRESPECTFUL DUMBASS
why should she speak Spanish when she is american? If you don't stop acting like we are all a bunch of tribes when we are a NATION, we won't get anywhere. Stop hyphenating and start working for unity. Obama likes to talk about racism as IF he has been exposed to it. He went to a private exclusive prep school, went to an upper class law school- makes millions, etc. He didn't spend his childhood in the USA, so he couldn't have faced anything there. So he comes in and is influenced by racists. He COULD have been great. But he isn't a uniter. he is, in fact, a divider. He can't stop dealing with hateful people. And white people- he hates YOU. By the way, this is NOT Mexico or Cuba, etc. Immigrants used to be so proud of how their kids spoke English. You act like speaking English is a crime!
LOL
Good point, Malibu!!
Ok- I am a bit confused - is obama running for president in the United states or Mexico. Last time I checked we speak ENGLISH.
PS- I am not racist and we are a hispanic family.
She's a knob, and a disgrace to the effort put into that video. She should be embarassed.
Shame on my people. They should be supporting Hillary. Morons…
Why did they even bother having her there? I wonder how much $ they wasted on her
what a bunch of Traders!
ugh! who the hell invited jessica alba to participate. I read her latina magazine article. are you fucking kidding me? its a "poor jessica" was rejected by her community cuz she doesnt speak spanish article. It made the latino community seem elitist or rejecting of people who dont speak spanish. Fucking ridiculous! If someone can please send this jessica alba! JESSICA ERES UNA IDOTA! will smith goes to mexico, he doesnt speak spanish and they love him! SELENA sang in spanish but really didnt speak it in conversation and people loved her! THATS THE LAMEST EXCUSE I EVER HEARD. You have a shitty ass attitude and a shitty personality. THATS WHY PEOPLE DONT LIKE YOU. you have no carisma. I hate people like you that will bank off our community. Getting the latina magazine covers, people en espanol covers, and now our obama commercials? your probably a closeted republican voting for mccain.
what a fucking joke!!! it looks like they accidentally stuck a clip of her in there. it totally screws up the flow of the ad. she such a douche.
who cares about her baby.
it's not like the child will ever know it has latin roots, anyways.
& she should just take the ALBA off her name already, WARREN seems to suit her attitude better. simply a disgrace
Re: mmmmmm – EXACTLY!!!!
Who were the two people singing in the video. They've got greart voices. And I don't know maby she never learned to speak spanish but still denying your heritage kinda sucks
Jessica Alba is not Pakistani. She is Mexican and she can deny it all she wants, but the proof is there. She can't keep track of her lies because she's a fake. Her acting is also so bad, no wonder all of her movies tank.
Why is she even in the commercial??? Alba is not proud of bein a Latina…. and I guess memorizing a couple of lines in Spanish is above her intelectual level. Que pena me das chica!
you're right she is laughable. Why do people bother with her she probably thinks Obamas white like her…I mean they do live in estados unidos together. Jessica "dont call me latina" alba that means the US in spanish…please don't cash in on your roots when it suits you you have no idea how much it hurts PROUD latinas
ugh, she so didn't need to be in the commercial
Jessica Alba is a waste of time. I don't know why they even put her in that endorsement to begin with.
Que verguenza– la wueona (la alba) embarro' todo…. pero x lo menos hablo del medioabiente…..
i don't speak spanish, and i think this is a truelly beautiful and inspiring ad, and she just ruins it!
I am not an American citizen, pero me gusta el video. Venga Obama, si se puede!!
I like it…one thing i found funny….George Lopez's head is to big that it gets cut off the screen lol
Re: Luxuri – I totally agree with you and I'm not even Latina!
Get that stupid bi**h Jessica "DCML" alba out of here…what the hell was the point of her dumbass in it?! ugh! total grossness!
-ELIAS "TH3 FLY3ST"
THIS IS OFFENDING!!! OMBAMA SUCK! WHY DO THE OTHER RACES SEGREGATE THEMSELEVES LIKE THAT!! AND THEY CALL WHITE PEOPLE RACIST! I HATE OBAMA HIS NAME SOUNDS LIKE OSAMA! DONT VOTE OBAMA UNLESS U WANT THIS COUNTRY TO GO COMPLETELY DOWN THE TOLIET!
I bet Jessica Alba doesn't even know how to speak Spanish.
Re: huh? – You are so ignorant, it isn't even worth commenting further.
