Eva Mendes: Marriage is not for me

Eva Mendes reveal again with dailytelegraph.com.au

“I just think…” she breaks off, choosing her words carefully. “If we go back to the origin of marriage, it was very unromantic. It was about land, basically. It was about ownership. So I think it’s a kind of unromantic idea. When I look around and see the emphasis people put on getting married and weddings, I think, wait a second, what does this really mean?

The divorce rate is astronomical. I’m a person who appreciates a private union and a union that doesn’t need a piece of paper. I think marriage is more societal than anything else, honestly. It’s not that I’m against it; it’s just that, for me, it seems a little old-fashioned.”

“But I’m completely pro-union,” she quickly adds. “I think the most beautiful thing in the world is to have your soulmate and to have that spiritual connection, and to honour that. In truth, you can’t be any more romantic than me. I’m crazy for romance. I like the random notes, the lipstick kisses on the mirror, the flower petals in the underwear drawer.”

Eva Mendes: “Sam Worthington Is Really Sexy”

Eva Mendes gave an interview for globalgrind.com and she said about her ‘Last Night’ co-star Sam Worthington

Sam has a really great kind of old school quality about him. He’s got this kind of rough exterior, this sexy rugged exterior, yet he’s so emotionally available and just really sexy. Did I say that already? (laughs) I find him extremely sexy and a lot of that has to do with his talent. I respond to his dedication to the craft. He’s a trained actor who really gets the material and just kind of embraces that process. He likes to rehearse, I love to rehearse. My kind of actor for sure.

Eva Mendes Talks ABout Being Make-Up Free

Eva Mendes said she’s happy to go make-up free in films.

“In the opening scene I might have a little powder on my face and that was it.”

“That may not sound like a big deal, but these are things that really help create a sexuality in my characters. My hair, which as you can see today is naturally really big, we straightened it, tucked it behind and took away all the sex.”
