As the video started, Althoff, 26, insisted Alba had skipped her awkward phase while theHonest Companyco-founder stated that the assumption was incorrect.

Still, Althoff felt that theDark Angelalum had the liberty of missing out on “a normal person’s awkward stage.”

“If I showed you pictures of me when I’m saying awkward, you would be like — you would look at me differently,” the host claimed.

Alba then shed light on how she actually got an early start on the so-called cringe rite of passage.

“It’s so weird that I started using a curling iron and Aquanet hairspray at age, like, 5,” she confessed. “And no wonder I hadso much asthma.”

Alba continued sharing details about her younger years, stating that she would attend raves — which are known for their attendees wearing eye-catching looks.

However, theHoneyactress made it clear that she was responsible whenever she’d go to one.

“I went to raves, but I didn’t do drugs,” she told Althoff, who said she believed her guest.
