Thanks to Rosalynn Jessica appears twice in the newest issue of Entertainment Weekly (Oct. 9th). The first is a Loreal advertisement, that I'm sure everyone has seen somewhere before. The second is a full-page photograph of Jessica in a black, one-piece, asymetrical swimsuit. There's also this small caption: The Dark Angel isn't as bold as she looks. At first, a then-19-year-old Alba was skittish about maximizing her assets by posing in this skimpy suit. "It took a lot of convincing on my part to tell Jessica, 'You look great, and I think it'll be a beautiful portrait,' " remembers Baptiste (photographer). "And she goes, 'Okay, I want to see a Polaroid first.' So we did a Polaroid and she was like 'Wow!' I said, 'Wow yes or wow no?' " It was a yes, and the shoot continued. "At the end, the publicist walked in and went, 'It's too much!' " says Baptiste. "And Jessica goes, 'I like it.' " Dark Angel fans were never more grateful.
