Question
Hi Crystal,
I too am a huge fan of 90210. It's been interesting to read through the questions from everybody to see if I know the answer. One of the questions asked of you was about Jessica Alba and how she said she was not allowed to make eye contact with any of the stars. Was she on the show at some point? As an extra maybe?
Hello Janette,
Jessica Alba guest starred as a teenage girl named Leann on 2 episodes during the 8th season, "Making Amends" and "The Nature of Nurture". Storyline details follow.
In the first episode, Leann abandons her newborn baby son at the clinic Kelly works for. Kelly takes care of the boy while trying to convince Leann to take her baby back. Kelly is unable to convince Leann and the boy is turned over to social services and Kelly decides to apply to be the boy's foster parent.
In the second episode, Kelly is upset when a gay couple receives custody of Leann's baby boy. Kelly also tells Leann what type of couple has custody of her son. Leann decides she wants her son back, but only because she doesn't want him raised by gay men. The gay couple agree to turn the boy back over to his birth mother without a fight. Then Kelly grows to believe that the gay couple would make better parents for the boy than her or Leann and tries to talk Leann into giving the boy back to the gay couple. Leann finally agrees to give the boy to the gay couple after realizing that she cannot care for her son properly. Leann turns the baby over to the gay couple and they take their son home.
Take care,
Crystal

| Comment | Hi Crystal, Funny....those episodes were just on Soapnet a couple of months ago. I know exactly what you are referring to, but still can't picture her as the teen mom. Now that Soapnet has started over (I think we're in season 3 now) I'll have to wait a while to watch those episodes again. Thanks for your prompt reply! Oh, here is a little feedback, should you have anything to say about the layout.....I'm wondering if there is some way to separate the "song" questions from the others. It seems like folks ask about the same songs over and over again...they don't look to see if the question has been asked and answered previously. Anyway, Thanks again!! | ||

Expertise
I have seen all 10 seasons of 90210 and have every episode on tape to locate answers. My expertise is on the first 6 seasons and the characters Brenda and Dylan, but I will attempt to answer any question pertaining to the show. Please no scene/dialogue questions because they are very time-consuming and frustrating. However, I will be happy to clarify misunderstood dialogue due to whispering and such if I'm able to. I will attempt to answer any song question for the original airdates and syndication. NO DVD SONG QUESTIONS PLEASE. Please see my "Life Experience" in my profile for song question updates, it may pertain to your question.
Experience
I have every single episode on tape to find the answers. I watched and taped the show religiously. (All requests for copies of my videotapes/episodes will be declined.)
Update: The song used in "Crunch Time" during David's meth addiction is "Living In A Fantasy" by The Rainbow Band. Many thanks to the fellow 90210 Fan that contacted me with the info when they tracked it down.
Also, the song used in "One Wedding and a Funeral" that Dylan & Toni dance to is "Nobody Knows Me" by Lyle Lovett. Same song is used during the scene where Dylan is crying while holding the wedding dress and then kitten. David & Donna's wedding song is "Spend My Life With You" by Eric Benet & Tamia. Same song was Steve & Janet's wedding song.
Education/Credentials
Pertaining to BH90210: fan since original airing on Fox going back to 1991. Saw 1st season from reruns & syndication.
