Alba stars in a series of new public service announcements for Declare Yourself to urge young people vote. She appears to be crying with the tape covering her mouth and naked body. "Only you can silence yourself," the ad reads. "Make them hear you. Register to vote now ..."
"I really don't see the point in not registering to vote," said Alba. "We sign up for MySpace pages and Facebook pages, and download music off the internet. The least people can do is register to vote online, actually making a difference in their world, not just making their lives a little bit cooler. It makes more sense to spend your time making a change in society - and it actually doesn't take that much time! It takes more time to make a music playlist than it does to register to vote."
You can go to declareyourself.com and find out how you can register to vote. If you aren't registered, you won't be able to vote at the upcoming elections in November. You need to register at least 30 days before election day.
Photographer Marc Liddel shot the campaign, and despite the racy nature of the pictures Jessica insists she was not embarrassed.
Other stars posing in the campaign include Andre 3000 and Christina Aguilera.
