In March 2006, Jessica Alba threatened to sue Playboy for making her an unwilling cover girl, per People. The magazine's cover photo showed the star rocking a slim-fitted bikini from her 2005 movie "Into the Blue," in which Alba's lawyers claimed Playboy tricked Sony Pictures Entertainment into supplying after she denied the opportunity to pose for the magazine's cover. 

"Playboy has violated my personal rights and blatantly misled the public, who might think I had given them permission to put me on their cover when I didn't," she said in a statement (via People). Alba's lawyers asked that the issue be removed from newsstands and quickly demanded a "monetary settlement." With this, she noted that "I'm simply protecting my personal rights and I hope that they will think twice before they try to do this to someone else."

Interestingly enough, Alba incorporates a no-nudity clause in all of her film contracts. "I don't want my grandparents to see my b***s. That's it. It would be weird at Christmas. And, I mean, really, if you look at the movies I have done, getting naked would never 'elevate' the picture," she told Glamour in 2014.
