When people write lies about you, and you know that they are lies, that means that they don't know the truth, so that's OK with me. If something true came out, I would have to check my circle to see who's talking and possibly make an apology phone call to my parents!

Even if you buy a fur glove with the little trim, and you think 'Oh, my God, it's just a little trim,' that animal got clubbed.

I don't come from a wealthy or privileged background, and growing up I was always looking for the best quality at a price I could afford. My love of vintage is rooted in that. Drugstores were the mecca for the latest makeup trends and products.

There's something very romantic to me about people who persevere, and who get told no, no, no on a daily basis, and still do it anyway.

I love it, but it's not important to me to always be thought of as sexy. I like it when it doesn't limit my career. It's a part of my life, but on a secondary plane

I am a man with an open mind. I really don't know anything, but I'm very interested in the spiritual and the material.

I'm not an exhibitionist. But, honestly, for my art I'll do anything almost. I'll go there.

I'm really loving and open at the same time.

Image
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.
Eva Mendes
Image
I have to be a little bit guarded, because I can be very open and I like to include people, but then again I have to remind myself to be careful.

Image
I'm an actress. To be honest, it's a very awkward business. It's one of those things where it's almost like a first date. There's a way you want to come across. You want to show your goods. The truth starts to slip out sometimes.

I love sleeping. If there was an Olympics for it, I'd take gold. I'm Cuban. We love to sleep.

I don't usually lose my temper, but if I get angry, it's true - I'm scary.

I speak English without an accent, and I speak Spanish without an accent. I really do have the best of both worlds.

That's the beauty of being an actress, is that you hopefully get to have different roles and really stretch yourself. This is really what I've been working for a while. I've been in the business for a minute, and it's an opportunity like this that I've been really working towards.

I wish writing was a talent that I had. I've tried. Unfortunately, I'm just not talented in the writing department. But, if I was, I would just write complicated roles for women because there's a lack of them.

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 think now we just know way too much about our celebrities. It's not that interesting when you know that much about people.
