Taking a break from her successful movie career, Eva Mendes stopped by a Calvin Klein store in London (October 14).
The “Hitch” actress is in London to celebrate the launch of Calvin Klein’s new underwear Seductive Comfort.
“I’m so proud to be the face and body of such an iconic American brand. I’ve grown up with Calvin Klein images and they definitely impacted my youth,” Mendes said.

EVA Mendes “loves” being considered a sex object.
The actress caused controversy earlier this year when her saucy ad campaign for Calvin Klein’s Secret Obsession was banned in the US.
But Mendes insists she’s proud of her body — and enjoys being called sexy.
She says, “I love it, but it’s not important to me to always be thought of as sexy. I like it when it doesn’t limit my career. It’s a part of my life, but on a secondary plane.”
Eva says the secret to her sexy shape is diet and exercise: “I try not to go crazy, but yes, I pay attention to what I eat,” she explains. “I try to stay away from pasta, bread, cakes, sweets, cookies and ice cream.”
Actress Eva Mendes has slammed Americans for glorifying violence while remaining prudish about nudity on-screen.
The star was at the center of controversy in August, when an ad she filmed for Calvin Klein was deemed too sexy for U.S. TV and banned by several of the major networks.
Mendes has since insisted that she is proud of the promo, which saw her writhing semi-naked on a bed.
And now the star has hit out at American censors for allowing gory shows to appear on TV, yet being too heavy-handed when it comes to naked scenes.
She tells People.com, “I love my country, but I believe that we are too quick to censor nudity. We seem okay with violence, but nudity we race to criticize and censor. I’m not at all ashamed or frightened about showing my body.”

A representative for Hollywood star Eva Mendes has denied reports that quoted the actress as saying she had sex “in all 50 states” of America.
In widely reported comments, Mendes supposedly discussed taking the raunchy road trip with a boyfriend when she was younger.
“I’ve had sex in all 50 states,” she was quoted as saying. “A lot of it was on a road trip I took when I was younger.”
But a representative for Mendes said it was a “complete fabrication” and “entirely untrue”.
“In fact, Ms Mendes wasn’t even present at the event at which these comments were supposedly made.
“The entire thing is absurd and offensive.”
