Alba Sorry for Shark Vandalism

Actress tagged billboards, including one from United Way

Share

(Newser) – Jessica Alba got herself into a strange controversy yesterday when photos emerged of the actress defacing Oklahoma City billboards—with posters of great white sharks, TMZ reports. Alba apologized for the vandalism, explaining in a statement that she “made a spontaneous and ill-advised decision to let myself get involved with the people behind this campaign,” which is apparently focused on saving the sharks.

Per usual, sorry she got caught. Idiot had her picture taken all over the city laughing her ass off, and now it's the fault of the people behind the campaign? Reply
