There are a bunch of Eva Mendes stories out there this week, which just goes back to my theory that Eva is ready to get back in the gossip saddle, so to speak. She was like this before her pregnancy – playing little games with the press about what she would and would not confirm, managing to let everyone know that Ryan Gosling was her lover but how dare you ask about him! I guess she plays that game pretty well, because some people are buying it. Anyway, these stories aren’t as exciting as yesterday’s “sweatpants lead to divorce,” (she later said it was a joke) but there’s some half-way interesting stuff. Here are some stories making the rounds.
Eva Wants Esmeralda To Get Pap’d. Star Magazine says that now that Esmeralda is getting older, Eva is more comfortable with the idea of bringing the baby outside, even if that means the baby gets photographed by paparazzi. Star says Ryan hates that idea because he doesn’t want Esme to become an “accessory” like North West. Sources say Ryan is the one obsessed with security and privacy and Eva would be fine with showing the baby off a little bit. I kind of believe that.
Eva Loves Footrubs. Like, she really loves them. According to the National Enquirer, she’s so obsessed with footrubs, she hosts all-ladies parties to compare footrubbing tips and exchange actual foot rubs. This sounds totally made up.
Eva Hates Workouts. Eva told E! News this week that “I am not the girl who’s like, ‘Oh yeah, I gotta get my workout in today.’ That is not me. It’s something I accepted quite a few years ago. I was like, ‘OK, this has to be part of my life. Just to stay healthy.’ But working out, it’s not fun. It’s not fun. My entire day is planned on how can I get out of my workout. Like, if I’m even running five minutes late I will text my [my trainer], I’ll be like, ‘I’m on the 101, it doesn’t look like I’ll be getting to you on time.’ She’s like, ‘That’s OK, I’m here…I don’t have anything after you.’ And I’m like, ‘Ugh! Woman, don’t you have other clients? Don’t you have to go?'” Is that supposed to be a cute story? Because it makes me sympathetic towards Eva’s trainer more than anything else. I mean, the trainer is getting paid no matter what, right? I hope so. Because I would absolutely hate to have Eva as a client or work for her in any capacity.
Eva is a Crazy Cuban. In the same interview, she says that she’s never really calm and relaxed because she’s a “crazy Cuban and I do everything really fast.”

I actually like the comment about working out and the fact that she admits she doesn’t like it but it’s something necessary.
Same. I feel you, Mendes.
And I’m sure the trainer gets paid anyways.
The trainer gets paid either way.
LOL. My friend used to try and pull this same crap with her trainer. But, by personality type, they are PASSIONATE about what they do and are used to people trying to weasel their way out of workouts. They know the best way to keep a client long-term is to keep them up to date on their workouts.
His bootie shoes are pissing me off, for some reason.
Really? But not the rolled up jeans? Get it together, woman.
Maybe it’s the combo. I wouldn’t mind the rolled up pants with edgier boots. I just realized his shirt is also not a shirt, but a jacket, and that is kind of irritating too. It’s elasticized at the waist!
I guess I’ll go look for stains or something instead.
What? NO. Not ever. Rolled up jeans are a deal breaker. The End.
P.s. Pretty sure he pegged them too.
You guys just ruined my crush on Ryan with one fell swoop. Or maybe it was him laughing while he rolled up his peg leg jeans. I did that once- when I was 13.
We are Crush Avengers, MC2! We can’t have you wasting your precious love and affection on pegging jeans roller-uppers. 😉
ETA: Just noticed the elasticized sorcery, good eye, Agent Kidoa.
OMG wtf is he wearing?? That elastic jacket… And that bottom photo of the two of them makes them look like the hipster version of American Gothic
I want to see baby Esmeralda in tiny little sweatpants with matching turban.
Yasss! You’re in charge of the photochop when pics of her emerge.
I actually believe the part about the baby. A lot of celebrities want to be seen as private and keep people interested in their lives whether they want to comply or not. They don’t want the media or fans to stop asking or thinking about them. They like to be chased, that’s how they play the game.
I like Eva Mendez, I love her figure, although the only movies I’ve seen of her was when she was someone’s mistress (The Women & Last Night). I’d like to see her on TV playing the character of a powerful Latine with a messed up life a la Olivia Pope. If this happens, I demand credit and compensation.
OH goodness; every time a woman gets with a man that has a vocal female following the woman he is with gets painted as some nutcase. Every negative thing is alway applied to her. She want this; she won’t let this happen; she is making this happen; She is a horror to live with.
I don’t get it. I don’t get why she is being picked apart. That thing she said about the sweatpants was an obvious joke. And even though people knew she was joking they still came for her. I’m not a fan nor do I dislike her. I think she is a truly beautiful woman. A woman that word actually applies to. But man people are so mad at her and is it just because Ryan G. is with her. If so says some scary things about women
Except Eva IS a nutcase. There have been rumors and stories about her loooooooooong before Ryan was ever in the picture. I actually kind of loathe Ryan and his whole Brooklyn hipster persona, yet I also know that Eva is as cray-cray as they come.
What were the rumors about? The only thing I remember reading about her was she was sick for a long time.
She’s always had a terrible reputation. It started way before Ryan. I think people just didn’t pay much attention to the stories (or her) prior to their relationship.
I get where you are going but just because someone dislikes her doesn’t mean it’s because of him. It could just be because they think she’s an a$$hole.
I think I can be a unbiased about her. I am not a Ryan fangirl. But I remember some of the comments when they were first together. And it felt like some women were mad at her for being with him. But I don’t know any stories of her being crazy.
It’s a little from column A and a little from column B. There are indeed some folks on the internet that will never be happy with whomever is dating their chosen internet boyfriend. And then Eva doesn’t do herself any favors by being so abrasive. You know when some people are super attractive and you can tell that they’re used to getting a little extra leeway in life? That’s Eva. Plus she’s had a lot of problems with drugs which doesn’t tend to help people’s behavior, but I don’t know that I would be comfortable describing an addict as a ‘nutcase’
The Canadian Ryans and their baby mamas are fascinating of …. Nothing. Where is a Kadashian post when you need one?
So are they still together or they just raise the child together? Ryan needs to get married to Rachael :p
i used to like her but these recent quotes are annoying.
Lol I’m so sick of hearing about them and I used to be the biggest hey girl. Her pumping out baby quotes and relationship quotes to sell some makeup is boring and I was over him around the time gangster squad came out.
