Jessica Alba as Dora and Other Lame Celebrity Costumes

Now that she's had a change of heart and decided to embrace her Latina roots, Jessica Alba dressed up as Dora the Explorer for Halloween. Just one of many 'eh-strong Latina woman' costumes from which to choose if you're a girl of color, I'm sure. Like, um… let's see… well, there's Rosario from 'Will and Grace.' She's one. And that midget from Fantasy Island, whats-her-name. (On second thought, that might have been a man. I don't think anybody really knows for sure.) Oh, and Charo, right? I almost forgot about Charo! Cuchi-cuchi! See, there's a ton of options. Good for Jessica for trouncing the traditional demeaning Latina eh-stereotype.
