Jessica joins US immigration debate

Jessica Alba has been getting political at the Mexican premiere of her new film The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.The actress is of Mexican descent and she made her opinions known on the American immigration debate.She said: "There's no denying that it's something that needs to be solved. There needs to be a mutual, beneficial agreement."We're not going anywhere and I think we need think of ourselves as being part of a global world rather than America living in it's own little bubble. The world just doesn't function like that anymore."Jessica plays the Invisible Woman in the film and stars alongside Ioan Gruffudd, Chris Evans, Michael Chiklis and Julian McMahon.She added: "I'm so proud to be where I'm from and I think that there's nothing better than to represent that in American film where we can go all over the world, globally and we can transcend stereotypes."© Independent Television News Limited 2007.
