Jessica Alba

Actress Jessica Alba has a number of tattoos, but unlike other celebrities, she doesn’t like to talk about them. One of the first tattoos she received was the Sanskrit word for “lotus,” a flower that represents spiritual beauty. In 2016, during her appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the actress revealed the reason for getting this tattoo.
