Jessica Alba stands by her Honest Company, appearing on The Today Show as she calls lawsuits 'baseless'

'We're going to win every case': Jessica Alba stands by her Honest Company as she calls lawsuits 'baseless' and 'attention seeking'

Jessica Alba took to defending her Honest Company on the public front against various lawsuits on Thursday.
The co-founder of the billion dollar business appeared on The Today Show to address the suits lodged against the natural products company, alleging they may be less than effective and contain toxic ingredients.
Alba, 35, said on the show that she believes many of the allegations simply stem from her company being an 'easy target' due to the awareness her star power brings to the brand.

'Obviously, we want our customers to have the best experience with our brand,' the actress stated. 'If an organization wants to bring awareness to their cause, I'm an easy target and our brand is an easy target, obviously, because I get different kind of attention than other brands would. It's just sort of what happens.'
She went on to express her faith in how well informed her customers really are, explaining: 'Our customers are savvy enough to do research and understand the integrity of our products. 
Adding: 'We stand by our ingredients, the effectiveness of the products, and we're pretty optimistic that we're going to win every case.'

But Alba also voiced how she can understand where the activists behind the lawsuits are coming from. 
'If I was in their position, I probably would try to put a spotlight on my cause, and there's no easier way than someone like me,' the working mother said. 'It's just a headline, really, because when you look into any of it, they're baseless. There's no merit behind any of it.' 
'If anything, it gives our customers an opportunity to speak out and get behind us, and we've grown tremendously over the last four and a half years,' she concluded. 'We've had a really positive effect on so many people's lives, and it's a dream come true because that's all I really wanted.'
