Eva Mendes can be seen in the image above, as a Marie Claire cover girl [Website – Amy Grindhouse].
Now, don’t get me wrong, I love mah-biotch Eva, but isn’t homegirl hella photoshopped? She looks great… but has, like, no waist or ribcage! What the hell? Oh, wait is ribcage removal like the new thing or sommat?
Oh, if it makes me look like Eva, sign me up.
One rib removal to go!
I know there are some of you out there, who are gluttons for punishment, actually read this shit… rather than do what I do (look at the pretty pictures). So, see the below for excerpts.
In the September issue of Marie Claire (on newsstands August 12th), Mendes talks about everything from growing up in a conservation-minded, working class family to which women she admires in Hollywood to her rehab stint.
On women’s strained friendships with each other: “I don’t understand women who don’t like being with the girls. They say they’d rather be with the guys all the time? That it’s just so much easier? I’m calling bulls— on that.”
On Annette Bening being a true role model: “She reminds me of one of those women back in the ‘40s and ‘50s. She’s a broad, and I want to be a broad. I mean, she’s like Ava Gardner or Bette Davis or Katherine Hepburn. Those women were broads. They said it like it was.”
On her life growing up: “I was raised by parents who didn’t have much. We didn’t use whole pieces of paper towel. We shared, or used rags. Mom didn’t even want us flushing all the time.”
On believing the public doesn’t need to know everything about where she lives and how long she’s been with her boyfriend: “Think about what this whole culture of celebrity has done to movie stars. It’s made them extinct. Actors used to carry films because people would have to actually go to the movies to see them. It was the only place. But now there’s none of that mystique, and so there’s less of a reason to buy a ticket.”
