Jessica Alba recently rocked a leather (or maybe it was pleather?) dress from Valentino at a Golden Globe Awards event at the Beverly Hills Hotel. And -- shocker! -- the 30-year-old mother of two looked absolutely stunning on the red carpet.

Alba, who gave birth to her second child in August, wore a little black dress that was part PVC plastic and part sheer. The effect, which highlighted her features without flaunting them, did not go unnoticed. Yahoo! searches for "jessica alba," already sky-high, jumped an additional 22%.

Jessica Simpson, who is currently in a family way, recently tweeted her admiration for the way Alba quickly got back into postbaby shape. Simpson tweeted, "New goal: look like @jessicaalba after baby. Job well done lady!" Alba tweeted back, "OMG! Ur so sweet! Thx hon!"

Alba's next project is "Escape From Planet Earth." The animated family film, which also boasts the vocal talents of James Gandolfini and Sarah Jessica Parker, is set to hit theaters sometime this year.

While Alba is mega-popular on Yahoo!, she's only the third most-searched-for "Jessica." Newly engaged Jessica Biel is the most searched over the last week, followed by Simpson, Alba, and then up-and-comer Jessica Chastain.
