Alba: 'Men are bigger divas than women'

Jessica Alba refuses to date another actor - as she believes they behave more like divas than women.

The Sin City beauty recalls how her male co-stars on TV's Dark Angel, which include ex-fiance Michael Weatherly, would need more time to recuperate from awry stunt scenes than her female counterparts.

Alba, 24, says: "Men are much bigger divas than women. When I used to do the action scenes in Dark Angel, I would have to lay it rough.

"If you hit an actress accidentally, she would usually take it on the chin and say: 'Don't do that again'.

"But with the guys, they would put ice on it, take a 20-minute break and ask for X-rays. It was unbelievable. I would tell them: 'Come on, man, get over it'. That's actors for you."
