Zoe Saldana isn’t opposed to buying herself a new pair of bolt-ons

Zoe Saldana

Zoe Saldana has an interesting way with interviews and often says really unexpected, strange things like how she collapsed under the weight of her own enormous fame and how only racists hate America. Now she’s appearing on the new Demi-Moore produced show on Lifetime, “The Conversation With Amanda de Cadenet.” For some strange reason, Zoe has chosen to discuss how she is certainly not opposed to buying a pair of bolt-ons. Okay:

Zoe Saldana isn’t opposed to plastic surgery.

On Lifetime’s “The Conversation With Amanda de Cadenet” Thursday, the 33-year-old actress revealed she wouldn’t mind getting a breast augmentation.

“‘Buy yourself a pair of t-tties.’ I heard somebody tell me this once and I I was like, ‘You know what? You’re absolutely right. Thank you for that,'” Saldana said. “And it just hit me, like, ‘Why not? But yourself a pair of t-tties.'”

In Saldana’s eyes, if “an old man was having a midlife crisis and can buy a Porsche and date a 17-year-old, I can buy myself a pair and be the sexiest soccer mom you’ve ever seen.”

The single star — she recently split with beau of three months Bradley Cooper, 37 — added that she doesn’t judge women who decide to go under the knife.

“As long as you’re doing it for reasons that are balanced for you [it’s okay]. It’s not even about judging what’s right or wrong. There’s nobody on this earth who can tell you that what you’re feeling is wrong. They can tell you it’s different to what they’re feeling. That said, I’m okay with people trying to do whatever it is they need to do to feel better,” The Words actress explained.

“What doesn’t feel okay to me, what feels a little bit out of balance, is when you want to turn yourself into something else — when you want to be another person.”

Hmm. I generally don’t have a problem with women wanting to improve themselves with a new pair of boobs. However, one should be as tasteful as possible and size accordingly to one’s frame (like Kate Hudson and Nicole Richie have done). Why do I get the feeling that Zoe is envisioning a massively huge rack for herself? I hope she doesn’t do that because very large boobs would look ridiculous on her very thin frame. Of course, maybe some essential sentiment has been lost in this interview because her points about the ubiquitous male mid-life crisis do make sense, and females should be allowed to enjoy the equivalent. Still, if Zoe’s plan is to buy herself a Katy Perry set of girls, she might want to rethink that strategy.

In addition, Zoe also covers the May issue of Cosmo for Latinas. This is the premiere issue, which launches a new offshoot of the magazine that is geared towards English speaking Latinas. Does this new Cosmo incarnation offer different sex tips, perhaps? Who knows, but Zoe has a bit to say about being a proud Latina:

Zoe Saldana

On being a Latina: “People think of Latina women as being fiery and fierce, which is usually true. But I think the quality that so many Latinas possess is strength. I’m very proud to have Latin blood.”

Acting over ballet: “I had to quit ballet because it felt like a part of me was dying inside. It takes a lot of courage to face up to things you can’t do because we feed ourselves so much denial…In dance you use every party of your body except your voice. I wanted to start acting because I wanted to use my voice.”

I appreciate when people are proud of their heritage, but it often seems in Hollywood that actresses (and singers) only pull out the badge of pride when it suits their PR purposes, right? Not that it really matters. It’s interesting that Zoe also says that ballet was slowly killing her. Now I’m receiving Black Swan-like visions of Zoe, which seems pretty crazy.

    She has great legs.

    • smartcookie says:

      she has the body of a 12 year old! I guarantee if she put on 10-15 lb. she would look amazing and the boobs would grow without requiring invasive surgery

      • Granger says:

        Exactly! I would never say this woman has great legs. They are so skinny. Two little sticks jutting out from her skirt. Too bad that in Hollywood, skinny is still so often revered.

      • anotherrandom says:

        I don’t have the same body type as Zoe but I can speak as a member of the IBTC and no matter how much I gain or lose, my boobs stay the same. They didn’t even grow when I got pregnant. So no, gaining 10-15lbs won’t necessarily give her boobs. It may just give her a bigger butt.

    • olaf78 says:

      I agree. She has a nice body, but as a pudgy person I am always prejudiced against the very thin and constantly wonder if they are eating enough. I try to keep it to myself IRL though.

      I don’t think she would ever get the Katy Perry rack cos, she is a fashionista and designers don’t make great clothes for the ‘boobed’.

  2. renee says:

    I’m not a huge fan of Zoe Saldana, but I think that she addresses her racial/cultural/ethnic background in interviews because people either read her as being Black but not Latina or Latina and not Black, and I think that she speaks about it to show that she lays claim these parts of her identity and that she does not need to forfeit one in order to be the other. Also, she is being interviewed for Cosmopolitan Latina, so I really don’t feel that her remarks are out of place.

    • Tiffany says:

      I agree. I think a lot of people (especially Americans) tend to think that “latina” means “Mexican”. There are many different types of latina, they can also be blonde, etc.

  3. salamanca says:

    She’s super skinny and if, she should get 1# up.

  4. spinner says:

    She doesn’t look healthy…just skinny. I have never really cared for her as she seems so starved for attention.

    • DreamyK says:

      Co-signed. She ruined Star Trek for me by loving all up on Spock. It was the equivalent of seeing your mom and dad making out in a restaurant while you are out for dinner. Just. Yuck. Leave my Spock alone!

      • Stacia says:

        Lol….’leave my Spock alone’. That brought a tears to my eyes from laughing.

        She’s not healthy or slim/skinny but boney.

  5. French says:

    perhaps I don’t understand the current sociocultural climate but what I find racist it’s that there are magazines for black, Latin, white, asians… women.

    • Tiffany27 says:

      I don’t understand why Cosmo made a Latina edition. That magazine is God awful enough on its own.

      • French says:

        You know I believe in “Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité”, and I think we can talk abour everything in only one magazine without any race reference…so I prefer being stupid.

    • WTF says:

      seriously? Flip through a few mainstream magazines and tell me how often you see women of color. And aside from Halle Berry and J-Lo how often do you see women of color on anything not devoted to them? Aside from Pinto, name one Indian woman lauded for her beauty, or anything for that matter. I’ve even heard the editor for Cosmo saying they don’t put women of color on the covers, because “we don’t sell well”. But you’re right, the black and latino magazines are the problem….(that last sentence was sarcasm, just in case you missed it)

      • kim says:

        wtf thank you. Because I read those two comments and i wanted to slap a bitch. You handled it much better than I would have.

      • Tiffany27 says:

        For the record, my comment was about how awful Cosmo magazine is PERIOD. I wasn’t in any agreement with French. The idea of “racists are people who wants magazines about their own people” is so ignorant it was ignored.

  6. danielle says:

    Zoe and Swifty…I think very thin women need to think hard about getting a boob job. If you have a smaller chest there are alot of styles you can wear that a larger chested women can’t get away with – I always wished I could do that slinky low cut thing, but I’d look like a hooker. Whereas you can always temporarily wear a push up bra if you want to fill out the top of a dress, then put it away later.

    • janie says:

      Truth. She pulls off the small-chested look so well. It makes me sad when another of my flat-chested idols gives into Hollywood 🙁

      I can’t see implants looking good on her. Her chest bones are really visible, and I think even small implants will look like bolt-ons.

  7. It is ME!! says:

    As an English-speaking Latina, do I need a Cosmo for me? LOL.

    And I get what she is trying to say re: old man, midlife crisis, Porshe, new bewbies, but shouldn’t we just be happy the way we are? Bolt ons and sports cars aren’t gonna make you feel that way….

  8. Liv says:

    Is she really that dumb?

  9. Violet says:

    She’s got a beautiful face, but she’s skinny to the point of being skeletal, so bigger breasts would look quite bizarre and disproportionate on her tiny frame.

    If she’s really set on having larger breasts, she’d be better off wearing a pushup bra, instead of having silicone sacks inserted into her chest. Implants seem like the most unsexy thing in the world to me — never mind all the potential health risks — but I guess to each their own.

  10. Hip-ster says:

    The reason many small chested women get implants is so they don’t have to wear push up bras anymore. The notion that ALL women getting implants get huge ones is outdated, along with thinking they look unreal. Silicone implants under the muscle within the b or c cup range look completely natural and can feel like breast tissue.

  11. D1 says:

    That “Cosmo for Latinas” cover line: “Don’t tell Mami!” Oh Lord.

    Why do I get the feeling that Latina Cosmo’s sex tips include greeting your man at the door wearing only a sombrero and performing a striptease for him while shaking a pair of maracas?

    That said, the main benefit of this magazine, or any other magazine aimed at a particular race or ethnic group is that it allows non-white actresses and models more frequent & prominent coverage than “mainstream” women’s magazines ever will.

  12. lower-case deb says:

    yes, now she can collapse in an all-new way. under the weight of enormous t-tties

  13. NerdMomma says:

    “I can buy myself a pair and be the sexiest soccer mom you’ve ever seen.”

    Where I come from, about 40% of the soccer moms have implants.

  14. o_O says:

    Her legs are nauseating…

  15. Karma says:

    I think she is just being genuinely supportive of other women’s choices and that whole thought process that goes into it.

    By saying you wouldn’t be opposed to it yourself or that you’ve thought about it. It’s probably a more truthful stance, than the typical. ‘I support women’s choice but I would never….’ Which is kinda a smug version of support.

    She ran the idea through her head, who hasn’t?

    Besides James Cameron would probably flip out if she bought some girls. Isn’t there some Avatar sequel in the works?

  16. Amy says:

    Her dance background isn’t a surprise–she got her start in movies in Centerstage after all. And I’m pretty sure she did her own dancing.

  17. Agnes says:

    eh, if it makes her feel good, whatever. but i hope she doesn’t mess with her face, she’s really pretty.

  18. TheOriginalVictoria says:

    She did all of her own dancing except for the wide shots in her workshop piece. She had given up ballet before that movie and they had…can’t remember name…fill in for her. She would not have been able to some of those moves anymore.

  19. Mara says:

    She is so beautiful but why always taking about being Latinas it is really annoying i am Romanian and we are Latin also but this actresses really think latinas are so sexy ?

  20. Aubra says:

    …buying boobs isn’t going to make her any less dull than she is! She tries way too hard, always reminding us she’s latin and talking about sex/sexuality in a way that reminds me of a 5 year old who learned to curse for the first time and thinks it’s cool…
