Quote

I come from a family and a heritage where you don't really go to therapy unless you're crazy. I want people to know that that's so not the case. It's enriching, and I've learned this new tool.

I still go to acting class. I love the craft. It's just so much fun for me, and I'm always a student.

But I've never felt objectified. Nothing you see me do is an accident.

I'm drawn to a lot of tragedies, and I love a Greek tragedy.But I would think - I start thinking realistically about it, and performing eight days a week, that would take a toll. I take things to heart. I don't know if I could survive, like, Medea.

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

When I first went to Europe, I thought I was going to move there. I was making plans to move to the south of Spain. It's such a cute, innocent thought. I think we all go through it.

People in my inner circle of loved ones - we're tight and I've never misjudged someone as far as I know I can feel someone's intentions, I know their intentions before they probably are honest enough with themselves to know it, so that's my strength.

I keep my backstory pretty private and personal.

I like a mysterious man. I like a man who reads and is knowledgeable about the world, but who doesn’t have to brag about it.

I make conscious decisions to stay out of the limelight. Without my make-up I'm pretty much the girl next door.

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 do like to belong to a man.

Since I begrudgingly started my Instagram account and my social media exposure/connection. I say begrudgingly because I just didn't want to take the plunge, but when I realized it was just a direct connection to our customer and these women, I did it. I like listening to their stories and their feedback.

Because celebrities' lives are so visible, I think it makes it look lighter than it is.
Eva Mendes
Image
The one thing I cannot tolerate in life is seeing people being taken advantage of, I cannot tolerate it I can't even see it in a movie. That can borderline on abuse and so what I would say is: really know when to put that guard up, and know how to really read people because that will help you along the way.

I've learned that it's way harder to be a baby. Everything is a struggle for her. For instance, I haven't thrown up since the '90s and she's thrown up twice since we started this interview. Motherhood is cake compared to what it's like to be a baby.

We seem okay with violence, but nudity we race to criticize and censor.

I speak English without an accent, and I speak Spanish without an accent. I really do have the best of both worlds.
Eva Mendes
Image
I just love architecture, and I just love the idea of being someone who sees the world differently and doing everything you can do in order to actualize that dream. And really sticking to your guns when everyone else is telling you that you're crazy.

I really like nice forearms - nice strong hands and forearms. I love that because then they can wear a watch really well.

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