"Yeah Jimmy, he knows what it means" 😂😂😂

[@NineOneOneFx]

My mid 2000’s MEGA crush! 😍

[@olivergarrick1175]

I love how supportive they are of each other.

[@h3artands0uLL]

Eva is me as a parent. She’s letting her intrusive thoughts flow out of her and trying her best in her private time to harness them and maintain peace and calm and positive thoughts

[@TiaanBReviews]

She's so stunning...happy to see her ❤

[@olivergarrick1175]

Eva mendes is such a beautiful person inside out love her.

[@123benny4]

Have you seen her inside out? Oooo, gross.

[@deborahswanson3457]

She is just gorgeous!!!

[@adr7an419]

Fast and Furious 2 came out in 2003 and she looks the exact same now

[@viksaggu9085]

Literally so beautiful. And same as in Hitch 2005

[@fragout9575]

I've always loved her. She did have some work done though recently...and I'm disappointed too

[@njiscott2399]

She did look quite different one time

[@adriantrusca1245]

​@@viksaggu9085 Could she be beautiful FIGURATIVELY, you dumbass?

[@b-dub6865]

@@fragout9575 I’m sure she gets Botox/fillers as most women do these days, especially actors, male & female. There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. In fact, it’s great for maintaining the elasticity in your skin, as long as you don’t overdo it. She looks beautiful, on the inside & out!😊

[@duneshawalli678]

She is so beautiful and classy as the same time. Wow.

[@winnipegchick7980]

She's a siren!!!!! I love her and her husband. C'mon!!!! ❤

[@PatrickNichols-zf8sx]

She's gorgeous

[@kparker905]

She’s back!! I swear she went underground for a while after having kids with Gosling and I know many people who’ve been like “can we swap him for her for just a LITTLE bit?” Lol No but she ruled the rom-coms in the 2000’s. So happy to see her!

[@lockekappa500]

Let's be honest, if your husband was Ryan Gosling, I'd go underground too.

[@novakgoatovic]

Wtf u on about😅😅😅 nNOBODY WOULD SWITCH HIM FOR HER. Ryan is genius. Stop talking shit

[@calidofrio13]

Ryan doesn't want her to work while she raises the kids. That's why she disappeared. He said in an interview that was one of his non negotiables for marriage.

[@ginniesoh]

@@calidofrio13 do you get a high from making things up? Show me any interview that he said such a thing about marriage. He has always been supportive of her and her choices. She has been vocal about wanting to be with her kids and not missing their childhood. She works at different capacities just not on a film set and that is her choice. She is the face of a new high fashion campaign and is now writing her children book. She IS WORKING.

[@Melissa-cd4tj]

@@calidofrio13 You literally just completely made that up. He has never said anything like that.

The beautiful Eva Mendes does not age, I hope she returns to acting.

[@mrk2K10]

Don’t be fooled. She had work done and comes out again as it has settled into a more natural look. They all do that, but we like them beautiful don’t we?

[@eusaboston]

[@jasperlevien5968]

Bye Sheila 😂

[@actualkarenokboomer3158]

I ordered my copy when I saw Ryan in the shirt and I got it today. I really like it, but my grandkids are not home yet. My grandson, your Amada turned 8 in April, my grandson, Sebastian turned 9 in July and your Esmarelda turns 10 this month. When he gets home I will have him read it to me. He started reading when he was about 3 1/2. We all live together, 3 generations. The kids love Barbie and The Fall Guy.

[@cashboymusic245]

Ghost Rider is when I got a crush on her, I was like 8 😂

[@05assahse]

Eva looks absolutely gorgeous. It's wonderful to see her.

[@geoffreyfeinberg9792]

She's stunning. Miss her in movies. She was good as the agent in 2 Fast 2 Furious. Hope she comes back for the finale.

[@jamesmin1239]

It's beyond annoying when Jimmy asks guests a question and then interrupts them while they're answering.

[@DannyUnchained]

she still looks great 20 years later. damn

[@b-dub6865]

I love how so many parents love Bluey. I often watch it by myself too! I think I love Bluey more than my kids do. Ha. It’s such a special show! It’s so creative, relatable, clever & thoughtful, heartwarming & hilarious!! I need more Bluey! 💙

Why does celebrities have the urge to 'write' children's books. They hire someone else to write it and illustrate it.
