"In Albuquerque there’s really only one restaurant that’s pretty good. You can only take Applebee’s and Chili’s so much. Our big day was hanging out at Wal-Mart for five hours. It was like, ‘Yea Wal-Mart!'"

Re: CC – why is someone who is at least 36 years old on a freakin site like this? and arguing so pathetically
Re: LatinAmber –
WORD! You rule you ghetto shank! Bitch on!
Hell Yesss! She is totally right! I've lived in albuquerque for 2 years now & THANK GOD I move back east in may. But it truly does suck ass. The people here are rude, ugly as fuck, & this state has a higher teen pregnacy rate then the South. which i'm sorry says a whole hell of a lot. there absolutly nothing here to do other than go to the mall, a hookah lounge, or the ever popular among high school crowds go hang out at Dion's. WTF!? i fucking agree with her, this whole good damn state is fucking disgusting, dirty and just overall a complete SHIT HOLE! right on jessica alba, i'm all fucking for you.
Oh and everyone's moving there because its DIRT ASS CHEAP. why? cause its ghetto and DISGUSTING EVERYWHERE. except downtown. new mexico has beautiful areas… none of which lie in albuquerque.
i will have to agree. i lived in abq and it sucked my ass. i dont know how many times ive eaten at applebees and chilis. lol, thats so funny that she said that, i thiught the same thing while i was FORCED to live in that shit hole. again, perez…be nice.
She's a disgusting cow and I hope she's hit by a car and her revolting 1/4 darkie baby is thrown from her canyon of a vagina onto a passing-by Suri Cruise, immediately killing them both.
.
.
And then she bleeds to death.
.
.
And then we eat them all!
.
.
In other words, death to her and her parasite fetus
and what is with her crazy frog eyes. ive never understood….
I have to post again because I am so mad. there is not just chili's and walmart hahahha! Albuquerque is so cultured and has great places to visit like Old Town and so many vineyards! If this girl knew anything or was even a little bit educated she would have told her people to take her somewhere other then Walmart, what an idiot, I will never watch another movie of hers ever again, they arent worth watching anyway
She's such a self hating cunt….I would hate me too if I was racist. BOOOOOOOO
Alba, you're baby's gonna look more like a spic than ever just you wait.
By the way……much love from NYC to my PereZITO
My sexy cubano
Okay
so Albuquerque might not be all Jessica is used to, but that bitch better watch her back next time i see her in Chili's!
HATE HER !!!!!…
I SOOO AGREE WIT U PEREZ ….
FAKE !!!!!
Re: britney lover needs her meth fix too! –
your mom should have been givin a wire hanger when she got the news of you.
ooooh.
burns huh?
What a stupid slag. Her baby is going to be an idiot, too.
She was at Wal-Mart for 5 hours?! Geezus.. she must be a redneck at heart. I can't stand that store. I get a headache within a half hour.
Jessica Alba could slaughter my entire family and i'd still wanna fuck her.
Lay off her you fat, ugly troll.
look at what that cunt is sayin……Alba says, "It was all because I wouldn't take photos with him at a nightclub. It would probably be smart for me to hang out and kiss up to what's his name, Perez."
ALbuquerque & Santa Fe are amazing! JESSICA stayed in a wonderful hotel suite here, and was treated like a queen. How fucking dare she talk bad about us! What a lowlife, ungrateful bitch! I hope her child is born with a tail.
Ugly spic. She should be mowing White people's lawn and not pretending to be an actress.
She's so naturally beautiful. It's ashame her insides don't match her outsides.
Re: dontknow –
This is true. I grew up in Albuquerque and loved it. I think New Mexico has some of the BEST food in the country. It is New Mexican cuisine not Mexican, yes there is a difference. Garduno's used to be good but is just okay now. Las Palames along with many other local favorites (Stuffies, Garcias, just to name a few) are amazing. Garcias has the best chile buritos mmm. The mountains are beautiful and fun things to do there like hiking, going up the longest tram in the world, etc. The balloon fiesta is the largest in the world. It's not LA which makes it special. Do NOT go to New Mexico expecting craziness. New Mexico is a great place to relax. I would highly suggest it for those celebrities in need of time away from the paparazzi (Britney).
leave her alone. Jessica is a nice girl.
I'm a New York and lived six years in LA, and travelled many continents, but have chosen New Mexico as home. It is easily the most authentic, diverse, gorgeous, culturally rich place in the country. And the food hear sublime, addictive, and often adventurous. Never set foot in a Chiles.
Alba obviously does not like her chile and stacked green or red enchildas, tamales, and moles. Or maybe she doesn't know about them because she spends her time in Walmart???
I agree that these comments come off as out-of-touch and snobby. But what were the context and when were they spoken? Perez gives us no way to source-check.
Uh Oh, Perez is jealous of yet another star! LOL! You DO love to hate don't you Perez?
I used to live in Nuevo Mexico too, but I think she is WRONG! Maybe there isn't a bunch of places to shop or whatever it is people do in big cities… But there is so much natural beauty in the place! Just out of the city there is SO MUCH to do mountains you can ski or hike in, caves you can explore, the white sands, and the beautiful sunsets. I mean I can go on… Anyone who can't appreciate nature needs to wake up and stop being so superficial. There is more to life!
I really don't know when going to Wal-Mart was snooty and I see absolutely nothing wrong with that statement. That fake ass latin pride just makes you "lean like a chola" Perez
This girl has no substance to her. I've been to Abq and thought it had wonderful restaurants and really Walmart for fives hours? She must have gotten lost in the store. I thought Perez was mean to J.A. , but she an absolute idiot! Write on Perez!
The reason she says Albuquerque is boring is because she is dull of mind. Albuquerque is FULL of things to do, great restaurants, culture, clean air and mountains surrounding. She just didn't ask, or even care to find out what to do there. Bitch would probably be bored anywhere other than LA or New York. Just because she's uninteresting and dull of mind. Hell, I could find something better to do than hang out in Wal-Mart if I was in BFE Kansas. This quote just shows her diva-ishness.
Haha, that's funny, she's tryna sound down to earth. Yeah…right..
Proof that she does not appreciate or respect the hispanic culture. The NATIONAL Hispanic Cultural Center is located right downtown in, YES That's RIGHT ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO!
If she made better movies maybe she would have better people working for her that would have made sure she dined and shopped in the finest places we have. Jessica, don't come back. All the local programming (TV, Radio - THEY COULDN'T GIVE TICKETS AWAY TO YOUR NEW MOVIE TODAY, Newspapers) made the community aware of how much class and manners you have.
And Um yeah it's brown, it's the desert hello…..
You should leave her alone, she's done nothing to you Perez 'Not a real Cuban' Hilton
WalMart???? Only white trash hangs out at WalMart. Go to Target.
What a bitch. Albuquerque has tons of great restaraunts!
I lived there for 8 years, I think I'd know.
What a fucking lazy ass bitch,
can't bother to find any restaurant that's not a chain.
I hate her
What a fucking CUNT. Glad she's having that loser's baby and all her movies suck. Hope CASHOLE fucks her over and gets half her money.
ok wow. she is a freak. and a retard. was she a resident of NM ever? that dudes right.shes a frenchy. thats like saying all texas has is cowboys and chili. sheeeet.
New Mexicans are some of the friendliest people in the US and they probably welcomed her into Albuquerque with open arms. And what thanks does she give them? She trashes on their city like the piece of shit that she is.
Re: Meg B –
You fat idiot! ALbuquerque rocks!!! We have a amazing city full of Hispanic & Native American culture! WIth wonderful Museums Art Gallery's and so much more!
You must be one of the assholes that get thrown here from time to time because of the witness protection program. They love to give our fair city the trash from everywhere else! Please….shut up!
The Essencia, Sadie's Cucinita (stuffed sopapillas!), The Artichoke Cafe, Rio Grande Cantina, the CINNAMON ROLLS at THE FRONTIER! I remember the ground-black-pepper coated juicy, thick steaks at the old BANQUE restaurant at the top of the tram. The best bowl of french onion soup I ever had was Room Service at the La Posada Hotel. And when you go thru the McDonald's drive thru…you can get FLAVORFUL GREEN CHILIS on your hamburger! The only place in the country, I think? Do you KNOW how much better a burger is with green chili on it!? Anyone who disses Albuquerque is retarded in his/her cultural awareness and plain LAZY about going out and checking out that fabulous little town's secrets and jewels. Like Miss Alba. How tedious to be in the Hollywood Elite these days.
WTF she is so ignorant! What city doesn't have Chili's?! Shouldn't she be all trendy since she is a celeb and seek out a great local restaurant like Sadie's or even Frontier? Jessica good luck finding yourself before you have the baby.
Re: hanley –
I know and if you don't have anything good to say just shut your mouth right?, why are her comments always negative? does she even have something in her head? It's a horrible thing to say, every place is special.
Um has she ever even been there there are tons of good restruants you just have to look. yeah there not 5 star IVY shit there behind main street in old town and up a few towns away… the Satilight cafe is pretty good and alot more!
I grew up in ABQ and although I wouldn't live there again it certainly has more to offer than Wal-mart. The world longest tram, old town, hiking in the mountains, playing disc golf, tons of museums. And the food is what I miss the most. They actually know what green chili is in that state. El Patio on 2nd street rocks the world. Nothing like sitting under those giant old trees sipping a margarita and having some green chili enchiladas. I have to say I'm offended by her statement. She is more than welcome to not come back.
Why do I keep coming back here! It's all the same bullshit. Britney, Jessica, with a sprinkle of actual news (aka:the fucking election!). Wake up, people! Gossip is not what makes the world go round. Spend half the time MAKING THIS EARTH BETTER as you do reading this bull, and see where it gets you.
GROSS THAT PICTURE SAYS IT ALL SHE IS UGLY AS FUCK LIKE YOUR AVERAGE NASTY LOOKING HO ON THE STREET HER HAIR IS NOT EVEN BROWN IT'S BLACK SHE IS SUCH A FAKE WHY DID SHE SAY THAT ANYWAYS SHE STICKS HER FINGER DOWN HER THROAT AFTER MEALS SO WHO GIVES A FUCK ISNT SHE FROM POMONA, CA ANYWAYS WHAT A WHORE IF SHE WASNT FAMOUS SHE'D STILL BE PIGGING OUT THERE SO STFU SHE IS A CHONGA FROM POMONA
Why are you always saying "Jessica don't call me Latina"? She's half Dutch and AMERICAN as well. Why don't you ever throw that into the mix? If someone doesn't want to Identify with a culture that they were not brought up with, then who are you to decide. Using the same logic, your name should be Perez "Don't call me a big fat ass Hilton".
I just can't get over how hot this girl is. Good gawd!
LEAVE HER ALONE. SHE'S GONNA BE A MOTHER SOON.
WHO CARES IF SHE DOESN'T WANNA BE MEXICAN.
that is fucked up!! i live in albuquerque and jessica alba came in and ate at the restaurant i work at and she was rude and so skinny i think it would be amazing if she really eats anything…and given albuquerque is a small town theres a lot more to do than hang out at wal mart. fuck that bitch!
ewwww herpes freak!
If Alba is too stupid not to know how to find a restaurant or something interesting to do then thats hardley the fault of the city. Its not our fault the bitch is too white washed to handle being in the same city as a lot of brown people.
fucking mexican bitch. in alburquerque there are PLENTY of places to eat. i went there for christmas to visit family and there are PLENTY of places to choose from. its a big place. and #4, littlemisstexas.. you're the only thing brown and ugly around here. stupid cunt.
Ok, we got it, Albuquerque suck
CUNT!!!
i'm from albuquerque, and i think jessica alba is narrow-minded and underwhelming. sure, abq isn't exactly a cultural mecca, but i'd rather spend the day at a new mexico wal-mart than watch, let alone pay for, a jessica alba movie.
What a retarded bitch! The Hyatt Tamaya Resort outside of Albuquerque has a fabulous spa–and she spends the day at Wal-Mart! God, you can't take the ghetto out of the puta, just goes to show!

I am a proud resident of ABQ and if this stuck up little girl would open her life up to a little culture she would have enjoyed all the wonderfu aspects of this great city.
Very nice bitch just go ahead a mock your fan base. If you get off your high horse and actually try and look around … maybe possibly get your head out of your ASS you might see there are some nice things around town.
Perez calls her "Don't Call Me Latina" Alba because she is not descent of she just has ancestry from her mothers side French/Danish which doesn't count and does not really make you French/Danish whatever she says she is as for her dad his ancestry and he himself is American Mexican which most people would define her as being American Mexican anyways because her mom is also American Mexican she has nothing to do with French/Danish her mother does and I bet it's from 5 gernerations before Jessica was born. Jessica doesn't meet the requirements to be known as French/Danish
hay dnt mock jessica alba ok i mean u will loose readers doing that shit
OMG! I love ALbuquerque …She needed a shopping buddy who knows where to go! Scottsdale Village has..Too Cute! (cute & funky clothes & jewelry !) Willow Creek gifts & Annies for lunch too! Plus Shops at Uptown has BeBe & BCBG, Coldwater Creek, Chicos, Diamond Tags and Williams Sonama…She is a twit!!! We evan have Elephant Bar, Azuma & the BEST Sushi Japanese Kitchen!!!!!! We are not just Walmart you idiot!
Is Abq the greatest city in the world? Not by any means, but it is a wonderful city to live and deserves more credit than she gives it. Our city is diverse and rich with many different cultures, races, and beliefs. As for our resturants, I wouldn't expect Ms. Don't Call Me Latina to know delicious new mexican food if it slapped her or cash in the face. Hopfully after her dreadfully boring experience here, she'll never come back because she's not welcomed.
I just saw the movie the eye and it was great jessica alba was awesome in it. I wish her all the luck in the world. Live u girl!!!!
She obviously didn't eat DION'S while she was here!!! Best PIZZA in the world!!!!
funny thing is that jessica has family living here in albuquerque..there isn't really whole lot to do in albuquerque but if you're a degenerate moron with no original ideas i guess wal mart would be the best you could come up with.
let's all be glad we are not her significant other. she seems very hard to please and it's not because she's intellectually superior. Plain and simple just a pain in the ass! Perfect insecure hollywood starlet who's not worth the money she earns…
Re: she is living in the past ancestry that she never had –
This girl is one of the most ignorant skinny-ass spoiled princesses in the business!! I'm a native Albuquerquean, and I heard she shacked up in a gated community in the RICHEST part of town when she filmed here, obviously unexposed to all the diverse culture and artistic offerings we have in this city! I bet she never went anywhere except Wal-Mart, the grocery store and that stupid ass mansion in the heights. I watched her filming her movie one day, and she was completely RUDE and didn't smile or meet eyes with anyone, almost like she was gonna catch a disease if she looked at us. Stupid BEEOTCH…dont' you ever come back here, or some cholas are gonna kick your flat skinny (non-latina) ass!!!!!
She's great… Stop messin w/ her. You people who keep bashing her make it seem horrible to say "I'm American". Get the f*ck outta my Country if you hate it so much. I was born here… I am of German & Italian descent and I don't speak German and I don't Speak Italian because my Grandparents (who came here LEGALLY) refused to speak their native language in this Country. In America you speak ENGLISH!!!! Enough Said!!!!
Thanks Jess for misrepresenting Albuquerque. There is so much more here than Wal-mart and Applebee's. How many more times can she stick her foot in her mouth!
All i can say is…
Big mouth and no brain.
she forgot who are the ones who really paid for her "brilliant" work
oh shit! walmart hanging ass! lets party in the kids aisle!!!!!!!!! yeah!!!!!
pinche vieja pendeja chola sacada de barrio…aparte de fea, ignorante la estupida, ( tiene aire en el cerebro) como se atreve a decir que no hay opciones en albuquerque… esta esptupida como para no saber la riqueza culinaria que ofrece todo el estado de nuevo mexico. esta mujer no merece ser llamada latina, porque no es latina, es una pinche mezcla rara q no pertenece en ningun lado por mamona y fea!… y por ultimo que chingados hizo en waltmart por 5 horas? tratando de encontrar un cerebro nuevo?
5 FUCKING HOURS AT WALMART??? WHAT THE FUCK WAS SHE DOING THERE FOR SO LONG? HIDING FROM ALL THE MEXICANS. BITCH ABVIOUSLY DOESNT KNOW WHAT REAL MEXICAN FOOD IS, WHITE WASHED BITCH..
She sounds latina to me. She loves Wal-Mart.
I gotta admit that shes right. NM is the most boring place ever. I gotta get out of here!!!
She is a stupid cow, ABQ is not bad at all and ummm Little Miss Texas…you are from Texas not much better! I work in the movie biz and people treated her so good when she was down in ABQ. what she said is just rude.
Albuquerque is disgusting…it's true…so brown, so dusty, so ghetto..yeah, the Mexican food is good, but SO WHAT?!?!?…no food is tasty enough to compensate for this disgusting town
What a fucking moron! Only a whitewashed "don't call me latina" dumb bitch doesn't know how to appreciate the true hispanic cuisine of Albuquerque. Albuquerque has delicious food in MANY different restaurants and not even just for Mexican or New Mexican food. I don't know where she was staying, but she was probably staying in some crappy part of town instead of the beautiful NE heights. If she wanted something to do, she could have easily gone to Santa Fe instead of spending 5 hours at a ghetto WalMart. Santa Fe is full of rich (probably who make even more money than she does) snobs just like her.
ITS A FUCKIN TRUCK STOP. SHE IS RIGHT!!! LOVE YOU JESSICA!!!!
Sweet Chocolate Jesus, what a snob. Applebee's is for when we can afford it. I'd love to b eable to turn up my nose at it!
ABQ DOES SUCK INDEED!! It's an INDIAN AND HIPPIE SHITHOLE. And come on, REAL MEXICAN FOOD come from border cities. STFU all you albuQUEERque INDIOS.
I totally agree with the sexy, gorgeous, beautiful bitch!!

YES, you are totally right!!!
i used to live in Albuquerque. ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. Wal-mart is a highlight. The state is uneducated and statistically the second poorest state in the country. OUCH. Plus, the "Hispanics" dye their hair and wear contacts and claim to deny their spanish roots so why get pissed at Jessica Alba? Have a nice day!
NEVER TRASH YOUR HOME TOWN! NICK LACHEY DOESN'T DO THAT…AND THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS THAT MAKES HIM SO HOT………OK….THAT AND A BEAUTIFUL ROCKING BODY!!!!!…………TEE HEE……I'M GAY.
Hmm…maybe a little too candid for her own good.
She is an idiot. Albuquerque let alone New Mexico has some of the best restaurants in the country. Lets hope she has her baby, gets fat and moves back to Texas with Cashole Warren!
Que pendeja, mierdera.
I really don't get understand why people get upset if a celebrity doesn't like the city that they're from. So what? I've visited places that I thought were boring and would never want to go back to again. My grandfather lived in Florida and I hated visiting him. It was too humid, there was nothing too do and only old people lived in the area he lived in. What's the big deal, really?

Please watch this! It includes many hollywood stars and musicians. I have watched it about a dozen times and cried every time!
Re: LittleMissTexas – The go back to your lovely state of Texas. Home of Enron and GWB. Hick.
I've only been to Albuquerque once (I'm a Dallas/Ft. Worth TX native and resident), and coming from where I live, it really wasn't THAT bad. There's still a lot to see/do. It's pretty different from what I'm used to, but all-in-all, I liked it!! Hell, I wouldn't mind going back soon. One other thing–yeah, as some of you mentioned, Garduno's is pretty good food, by the way.
LADY LOOKS LIKE A DUDE IN THAT PICTURE…..GUESS SHE WASN'T BLESSED WITH THE PREGNACY GLOW!!!

perez is such a fuking puta for making fun of alba, what his bitch-ass cunt-ass does not understand is that as an islander he must not AND more than likely will NOT ever understand the razas fuking trials and tribulations. that is why we ..the americans.. make fun or your GloriaEstefan-supporting Elian butt-fuking-asses!! keep on keep'n on lavondor(a the explora)ia!!
Ok, I'm from Albuquerque and I am sorry I must stick up for it. Are there a ton of fine dining restaurants? No, but there are a ton of authentic New Mexican food restaurants that are delicious! Is there anything to do in that town? No, not so much, but seriously, read a book, or furthermore brush up on your acting skills. What really upsets me is how she doesn't hesitate to put a place down, not realizing how many of her fans live there. I mean be a little more aware of your fan base and who you are marketed towards.
Im from Albuquerque, I live in Santa Fe, I wouldnt have it any other way. New Mexico is one of the most beautiful places in the world.
Fuck her. She's obviously close minded, ignorant and self centered. She'll eventually get whats coming to her.
she is so wrong…the worse thing about albuquerque is that THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE !!!
