Eva Mendes’ Day in the Big Apple

Eva Mendes’ Day in the Big Apple

We all remember Eva Mendes in “Hitch” as the gossip reported working in New York City.  Well, she was in the Big Apple again yesterday, and it’s easy to see that this girl loves the city.

The “We Own The Night” actress was first spotted leaving her hotel, on her way to a photo shoot.  After that, she came back to her room with a girlfriend.

Later that evening, Mendes emerged in a red dress, headed over to Cipriani Wall Street for a concert.

And while she loves her career, Eva confessed that she seeks counseling in order to properly deal with her celebrity status.

“I see a therapist once a week or I speak to her if I’m not around.  And I want to encourage people to go it; it doesn’t mean you are out of control. I just think it’s healthy way to be and even when everything is OK, I still go.  It’s great to have somebody who is completely objective coming up with guidelines for you.”

And even though she spends so much of her time with philanthropic endeavors, the 30-year-old Barranquilla native continues to produce award worthy music.

This was made evident by the recent Golden Globe nomination received by Shakira. She’s up for Best Original Song for “Despedia” which was featured in the movie “Love In The Time Of Cholera”.

Shakira co-wrote the track with Antonio Pinto - with the two hoping for a big win when the winners are announced on January 13th.
