Jessica Alba may have played a music video dancer in Honey and an exotic dancer in Sin City, but she won’t go fully nude for any role. 

The actress, 33, revealed in the June issue of Glamour the simple reason that she has refused to get naked during the duration of her 30-year acting career.

“I don’t want my grandparents to see my boobs,” she told Glamour. “That’s it. It would be weird at Christmas. And, I mean, really, if you look at the movies I have done, getting naked would never ‘elevate’ the picture.”
