Depending on your personal opinions, morals or beliefs, there might not be anything awkward about this at all. Hollywood actress Jessica Alba, who is often considered one of the most beautiful women in the world, opens up about the awkwardness that came while trying to be sexy at 19, even though she was still a virgin at the time.

In a new interview with InStyle Magazine this month, the Honest Company mogul said that she wasn't always comfortable with seeing herself as a sex symbol, especially during the early days of her career.

She said, "My sexuality made me very uncomfortable. I remember my first Maxim shoot, they were telling me to pose a certain way, and I was like, 'Agh! I'm 19. I'm a virgin. I don't even know how to do that.' It was so awkward. I sort of went through a life crisis. I was like, 'This isn't what I set out to be. I'm so much more than this, but I don't know how not to be a sex symbol.'"

The former Dark Angel star went on to date and marry Michael Weatherly in 2000, who was also 13 years her senior at the time. She's now married to movie producer Cash Warren and the couple has two children together, Honor Marie and Haven Garner.

The actress also opened up about the multiple health problems she had during her childhood, saying, "I was definitely born different. I loved to challenge authority. I was a very difficult child to parent. I was hyper. I didn't sleep a lot. And being sick so often and being in and out of the hospital so much made it hard to form relationships."
