However, back in 1996, she appeared on the TV show Flipper and was only 15 years old at the time. According to the website Far Out, it is at this time that Jessica Alba was dramatically kidnapped.

Far Out reported that “While shooting her first show, Flipper, in 1996, a 15-year-old Alba began to receive strange phone calls. Initially, she dismissed them as a harmless prank, but things took an unexpected turn. The actor was kidnapped from the set and missing for 14 hours.

“Upon being found bound and gagged in a car boot, she could not provide any information, so the case was dismissed. Alba has refused to discuss the terrifying incident publicly, and the culprit has remained anonymous.”
