Jessica Alba plans a fantastic summer

Actress Jessica Alba and boyfriend Cash Warren (R) arrive as guests at the Los Angeles premiere of the documentary film 'An Inconvenient Truth' in Los Angeles May 16, 2006. The film by director Davis Guggenheim offers a look at former US vice president Al Gore's fervent crusade to halt global warming's deadly progress by exposing the myths and misconceptions that surround it. The film opens in select theaters in the US on May 24.

Jessica Alba plans a fantastic summer

She lands on magazine covers and tops nearly every Hollywood hot list. And on Saturday, Fantastic Four's Jessica Alba will be hosting the MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles (airing June 8, 9 p.m. ET/PT). "I'm so excited," Alba says. "We're all going to be acting really crazy." USA TODAY asked Alba, 25, how she'll make the most of her summer.

Q: You and your boyfriend (production assistant Cash Warren) started off summer by riding roller coasters at Magic Mountain. How did you guys fare?

A: Cash threw up after the first ride. He was ruined for the rest of the night.

Q: What's the summer movie you most want to see?

A: X-Men: The Last Stand. We're going to have the X-Men babes Rebecca Romijn, Halle Berry and Famke Janssen on the (awards) show. All these comic-book movies bode well for the genre. We start Fantastic Four 2 in August. The four of us learn that there are other people out there with superpowers, and the Silver Surfer appears as a villain/hero. And another villain comes in as well. My character, Susan Storm, has another love triangle and may use a power people haven't seen before. She's the most powerful of the four.

Q: Who might break out as the next big male movie star?

A: Three guys are on my radar: Max Minghella (Art School Confidential, in limited release), Dane Cook (Employee of the Month, due this year) and Topher Grace (Spider-Man 3, opening in 2007). They've got the chops and the charisma.

Q: What's going to be the hot sound of summer?

A: I want to see Christina Aguilera's concert so bad. She's performing at the awards. Her new album is absolute fire. I went to her house and got a sneak peak. It's hot and modern and has dance tracks, but then she also has a throwback to Billie Holiday.

Q: You always look awesome. How do you keep those Alba abs?

A: I have a trainer I work out with four days a week to get my body stronger for Fantastic Four 2. And I try to not to eat too much dessert. I like whipped cream a lot. I'll put whipped cream on anything.

Q: What cocktail helps you stay cool?

A: I'm really feeling the mojitos. The mint and sugar cane is so refreshing.

Q: What book might you be flipping through by the pool?

A: I like things about improving your health, like ayurvedic stuff. It's an Eastern way of living and healing your body with oils and meditation and yoga.

Q: What's your hair going to look like this summer?

A: It's medium brown, and I have a few highlights and it gets lighter in the sun. Every day I spray in leave-in conditioner. Susan Storm has white-blond hair. I went blond for the first one, but I might try a wig for the sequel. I had to chop my hair off because it got so damaged.

Q: Are you hitting the beach this summer?

A: Maybe the Caribbean or Mexico again. My favorite beach is probably the Eco Lodge in Costa Rica. I've never been to European beaches, so it might be fun to go to Greece or Spain.

Q: European beaches are known for being topless. Might you try that?

A: I would if it were just me and my guy, but the paparazzi seem to pop up everywhere.

Q: So bikinis or one-piece?

A: Bikinis are more flattering on my body. I wore jean shorts to the beach when I was a teenager. I was an insecure teenager and a born-again Christian hanging out with a group of kids that made me feel bad about showing my body. But I learned I shouldn't be ashamed of what God gave me.

Q: What about guys in Speedos?

A: I like guys in board shorts.

Q: Are you a fan of spray-on tans?

A: I have done them before. You have to do ones with anti-oxidants that leave you brown instead of orange. I took my mom once, and it was so fun. She's French and Danish, but my dad's Mexican, so he's really dark all the time.

Q: What's the hot color of summer?

A: Maybe white. It attracts the sun the least.

Q: Might you be wearing a white wedding gown this summer?

A: No, no. We're not engaged. I'm still young!
