Somebody get Jessica Alba an "I *heart* NY" t-shirt – the sexy star says she's ready to ditch Hollywood and move to the Big Apple.

"It's a great city (and) everywhere you look there's art and restaurants and people are, like, on the move, it's very progressive," she said after shooting her new film 'Awake' in Harlem.

"People talk to you, they interact. It's not like that in L.A. In L.A. everyone's in their car and they're honking at you or spitting their cigarette or their gum out at you."

Alba's not the first to catch the New York bug. Pop stars Britney Spears and Jessica Simpson have already started househunting in the city.
