"I feel I'll take on the responsibility of showing the world a whole
different kind of Latin woman." "It's fun to be a woman. It's fun to
flirt and wear makeup and have boobs."
"The celebrity world can be so ugly. Everyone seems to have slept with
everyone else and it's some sort of strange weird cycle. I don't want to get
into that."
"I don't go to premieres. I attend film openings I'm in, and that's about
it. Fame and celebrity doesn't matter to me. The longevity of my career does."
"I have the hugest . . . overbite. It's so big, my older brothers and
sisters used to call me "Bugs". I looked like a bottle opener. But I've never
fixed my bite because it's one of the things that makes me me. I used to get
teased about the mole on my left cheek. In junior high the other kids would say,
"You've got some chocolate on your face", and I fell for it every time. I said,
"The minute I turn 18 I'm going to get that mole removed!" But I'm happy I
didn't. My best feature is my big hips. I've got some nice childbearing hips,
and I feel very proud of them. When I was younger I thought they were too big. I
wanted to be slimmer. But now I totally embrace them." “I’m actually taking advantage of my time off. You know, I had a
film that was pushed, so I’m home spending time with my family, going to the
gym and actually enjoying taking care of myself…This year has been great for
me because I’ve learned how to relax. The last three years have been amazing
but kind of crazy. So I don’t know, I feel grounded. I feel really good.” - Eva Mendes tells People magazine how she feels
after having spent several weeks in rehab.
