Jessica Alba is usually one of the last celebrities who come to mind when I think of defacing public property. Unfortunately, that’s just what she did last week.
Jessica and some unnamed cohorts plastered downtown Oklahoma City with huge photos of Great Whites in order to draw attention to the dwindling population of the sharks. Great idea and all, but people in Oklahoma City are pissed. Either because she literally glued huge pictures of sharks to everything, or because she actually defaced a United Way billboard.
In a forced recently released statement, Jessica apologized for her actions saying, “I got involved in something I should have had no part of. I realize that I should have used better judgment and I regret not thinking things through before I made a spontaneous and ill-advised decision to let myself get involved with the people behind this campaign. I sincerely apologize to the citizens of Oklahoma City and to the United Way for my involvement in this incident.”
I’m all for well-organized animal activism and all, but next time Jess, let’s keep away from advertisements for actual charities.
