Alba's casting couch confession

Jessica Alba has revealed she has been propositioned for sex when auditioning for film roles.

The stunning actress claims she has been asked by several directors to sleep with them while on the casting couch but has always refused - because she wouldn't want to have to bump into them everyday on set.

She revealed: "Of course I've been asked. But from a really crass point of view, if I just want to f**k somebody, I don't really want to see him in the morning, much less every day during filming."

Alba has also revealed how she copes when shooting kissing scenes if she doesn't fancy her co-star - she thinks of her dogs.

The screen beauty, who smooched with hunky Bruce Willis in 'Sin City', claims she is lucky enough to have been attracted to most of the actors she has filmed love scenes with, but at times has had to resort to picturing her pet pugs to get through it.

She explained to America's Hollywood Life magazine: "When you're making a movie with an actor, either it's someone you want to sleep with or you're thinking of someone you want to sleep with or you're thinking of your dog.

"I think of Sid and Nancy, my pugs."
