Somebody likes it rough...

I'm kidding! Jessica Alba got all taped up for a good cause -- she's helping out the Declare Yourself organization, hoping to get more of the young population to vote. 

"I think it is important for young people to be aware of the need we have in this country to get them more active politically," the new mom said. "People respond to things that are shocking."

The Dark Angel says that this image of her all bound up "really resonates" with the issue of voting. "If you don't register and vote and make a difference, and hopefully change the bad things that are happening in our country, you are essentially just binding and muzzling yourself." 
 
Will this get the MTV crowd to vote? Don't know, but she'll certainly inspire them to do something with this ad.
