Actress and now CEO of a very successful company, Jessica Alba says that at times she feels like a “lone wolf.”
In an interview with Net- A-Porter’s EDIT ,the 34-year-old opened up about sexism and how she feels about being one of only a few women heading their own companies.
"You feel like a lone wolf surrounded by men who have done it all before,” she revealed.
Alba added that she is no stranger to inequality as a woman though and said that it was prevalent in the entertainment business.
"I've actually felt this more in the entertainment industry. People never say a male actor is difficult, they call him smart, but if a woman did the same thing, she would be considered a b**ch.
"I find it funny when I get called ambitious! I've even had my agents do intros and say, 'She's a very ambitious young lady.' And I'm always like, 'What the f--k does that mean?!'"
The Sin City star’s The Honest Company sells non-toxic household and baby products. In September, the company was sued by a consumer who claimed it was "deceptive" and "misleading." Alba responded to those allegations calling them “baseless.”
