Jessica Alba Drops Claims Against Playboy
Super hot Jessica Alba has dropped her beef with Playboy magazine after an apology from the silk-pajamed one himself, Hugh Hefner.
The battle began when Alba says Playboy used a publicity photo from Alba's film, 'Into the Blue,' on the cover of their March 25 Sexiest Celebrities issue without her expressed consent. Alba has never posed for Playboy, and has repeatedly said she will not be photographed nude. By putting her on the cover, Alba felt Playboy tarnished her image by intimating there were nude photos inside.
"This was never about money," Alba said in a written statement. "It was about setting the record straight about something that was done without my knowledge or consent."
In addition to the apology, Playboy also made donations on behalf of Alba to Keep A Child Alive and the Until There's A Cure Foundation.

Jessica Alba Demands Playboy Pull Magazines
Los Angeles -- Jessica Alba is demanding that Playboy pull its March issue, saying she didn't agree to be on the cover and that the image may mislead readers into thinking she appears nude or partially nude in the magazine.
The cover shows the 24-year-old actress in a bikini, next to the headline "25 Sexiest Celebrities." Besides demanding that Playboy stop distributing the March issue, Alba is asking for "monetary settlement" for damages to her reputation and career.
In a Feb. 23 letter obtained by The Smoking Gun Web site, Alba's lawyers told Playboy the magazine used a photo of Alba meant to promote the movie "Into the Blue" without her consent. Sony Pictures, which owns the image, sent a separate letter alleging that Playboy initially offered to pay Alba to pose for the cover of the issue. When her publicist refused, Playboy resorted to using "false pretenses" to obtain the promotional shot, according to the letter.
"Playboy has violated my personal rights and blatantly misled the public who might think I had given them permission to put me on the cover when I didn't," Alba said in a statement.
A Playboy spokeswoman said Alba was placed on the cover after being chosen "sexiest star of the year" by its readers.
"Our editors assembled photographs of the top 25 vote getters for our annual '25 Sexiest Celebrity' feature, and we put her on the cover based on the poll results," spokeswoman Lauren Malone said.
