Jessica Alba goes nude for latest flick

Get your low down on what's happening in the world of Hollywood, right here!

Jessica Alba, who once vowed that she'd never bare all in front of the cameras, has gone nude for her latest film.

In an art house action film based on Mexican B-movies called Machete, Alba is seen revealing her birthday suit, reports the Daily Mail.

The Latino star told Scarlet magazine in February that she would never bare all for the cameras, saying, 'No, I'll never do a nude scene. I can act sexy and wear sexy clothes but I can't go naked.'

The Sin City star continued, 'I think I was always very uncomfortable about the way my body developed, and I remember my grandmother would freak out and throw a towel over me if she saw me wearing just a bra and panties.

'I come from a very Catholic family so it wasn't seen as a good thing to flaunt yourself like that. I can handle being sexy with clothes on but not with them off.'

The 29-year-old, however, has had no qualms appearing in her birthday suit in the new Robert Rodriquez movie.

Pamela Anderson has rather disheartening news especially for her male fans. The sexy seductress has vowed that she will never strip again.

The former Baywatch babe, 43, said the final trigger was when her children were taunted for her Playboy shoot.

She has, since then, decided never to strip, adding that there are other gorgeous women who can take the lead.

'I've had enough. And besides, there are other gorgeous women who can do it now. I want to spend more time with animals in Canada,' the Daily Star quoted Pamela as saying.

Hollywood bosses are in negotiations to give actress Scarlett Johansson her own superhero movie by bringing the Black Widow back to the big screen in a solo outing.

The beauty made her debut as the sexy superspy in this year's Iron Man 2 and will reprise her role for The Avengers film, an ensemble picture featuring a star-studded cast including Robert Downey, Jr. Samuel L Jackson and Mark Ruffalo.

And Johansson could be slipping back into costume once again as executives at Marvel Studios make plans for a Black Widow movie after the release of The Avengers.

'We've already started discussions with Scarlett about the idea of a solo movie and have begun putting together concepts, but The Avengers comes first,' the Daily Star quoted Kevin Feige, Marvel Studios boss, as telling reporters in a press conference.

Actor and activist Sean Penn has been honoured with this year's Hollywood Humanitarian Award for his charity work in Haiti.

The Academy Award winner co-founded the J/P HRO Haitian Relief Organisation in the wake of the January earthquake.

He has spent months in the Caribbean nation helping to distribute food and medical supplies, as well as build schools and hospitals.

Penn was made a knight in Haiti in July.

He would be the star guest at next month's Hollywood Awards Gala Ceremony to pick up the humanitarian prize.

'It is an honour to recognise the inspiring humanitarian efforts that Sean Penn and his J/P Haitian Relief Organization have been providing to the great people of Haiti,' the Daily Star quoted Carlos de Abreu of the Hollywood Film Festival as saying.
