A few cast members of Beverly Hills 90210 caught wind of actor Jessica Alba's claim that she couldn't make eye contact with them while on set, and denied it was their rule.

90210 alum Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth discussed the rumor on their iHeartRadio podcast, 90210OMG, in which Garth admitted she had the most scenes with Alba on set. "I had all the scenes with her," said Garth. "Like, if anybody was, you know, didn't want to have their eyes looked into, it would've been me. But I don't remember, because I have the world's worst memory." Castmate Tori Spelling chimed in, sharing it could've been a rule started by producers.

Actor Jason Priestley, who played Brandon Walsh, told KiSS 92.5's The Roz & Mocha Show, "I don't know who told Jessica Alba not to look at us." In the interview, Priestley, who said he never worked with Alba, felt sorry that the actor had to experience such a strange request. "She was in a storyline that I had nothing to do with so I don't know what her experience was on the show, but I'm sorry that happened to her and it seems really incongruous with everything else that happened on our show."

It sounds like this situation was one big miscommunication, but who can say for sure!
