Forbes released their list of the top-earning actresses in Hollywood and, wouldn’t you guess, none of our favorite mujeres were on the list?
The closest thing to a latina we could get was Cameron Diaz who, let’s be honest, hasn’t actually played a latina anywhere in her career.
And what’s more, we’re tempted to think that this list was compiled by crazies.
Its the only way of explaining how Sandra Bullock and Scarlett Johansson (both with zero Acadamey Award nominations between them) managed to out bank Oscar winners like Nicole Kidman, Cate Blanchett, and Kate Winslet.
Although, we did manage to break the ranks of Forbes’ 100 Most Powerful Celebrities with Ronaldinho (#55), Gisele Bündchen (#72), and Eva Longoria (#89).
But we’re not entirely sure we ought to feel too good about that, since they were outranked by the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Dr. Phil McGraw. Dang, even Barack Obama barely managed to make it into the top 50.
Props to Eva Longoria for not buying in to the hype.
Since the outbreak of the swine flu, Mexico has effectively been kicked in the balls with regard to tourism, with fancy pants the world over fearing either infection, or getting shot by the cartels…or getting shot by the cartels with swine-flu infected bullets.
But some celebs have decided to set the record straight by rocking these Alejandro Fernandez-designed shirts, reading:
“Muñecas como ésta vacacionan en México.”
Eva isn’t the only one wearing these threads, aimed at reviving Mexico’s crippling tourism industry. Apparently, even J. Lo and Enrique Iglesias have thrown their weight in. Who knew?
The highest court in France found cosmetics giant, L’Oréal, guilty of racial discrimination after it was reported that advertising reps for the company refused to hire non-white spokesmodels for their new haircare line, ‘Fructis Style.’
“…word went out that Garnier’s hostesses should be BBR — “bleu, blanc, rouge” — the colours of the French flag. The expression is widely recognised in the French recruitment world as a code for white French people born to white French parents…in effect excluding the four million or so members of ethnic minorities in France.”
French high court, la Cour de Cassation, found L’Oréal’s policy illegal under French employment laws, further tarnishing the beauty mogul’s image (which was already dealt a blow last year after being accused of lightening Beyonce’s skin for one of their ad campaigns).
What’s really busting us up, though, is that L’Oréal has seemingly gone to great lengths to feature ladies of color in their ads, like Kerry Washington, Penélope Cruz, Aishwarya Rai, and Eva Longoria.
Too bad, L’Oréal! Looks like your undercover racist jig is up.
First People en Español, then Maxim, now FHM has released their list of belleza favorites for 2009.
And it should come as no surprise that some truly fine mujeres -not the beef jerky weirdness that might have made some of those other lists- were named to the ranks of FHM’s.
The only thing we don’t understand is their ranking system?! How on Earth could chronic frumpadump Jessica Alba outrank Salma Hayek, Shakira, Eva Mendes, or even Adriana Lima?!
Our guess is that there must be some Alba bias over at FHM. Fortunately, you all know we’ve got the antidote for that.

From New York to L.A., some of our favorite superestrellas have been all over town promoting charities, movies, or just themselves.
Eva Longoria, for example, hit up her local Texas Wendy’s as part of the “Father’s Day Frosty Weekend” fundraiser. The proceeds from this Frosty work go to the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption.
We don’t know what part of Eva Longoria says “Happy Father’s Day,” but we’re always down with a girl who gets down with a good cause.
Follow the jump to see what Ana Beatriz Barros, Eva Mendes, Thalía and Camila Alves have going on…
Who knew tiny tejanaEva Longoria had such a sultry sex appeal?
As we promised, we’ve got Eva’s complete spread in this month’s issue of GQ México, and its as tantalizing as the cover we teased you with a few weeks back.

What we wouldn’t give to be Eva Longoria right now. Not because of her blinging celebrity status, or her baby-faced husband (although either one of those things wouldn’t hurt!)
What we’re coveting is the apparently awesome vacation she is enjoying right now in St. Tropez.
Eva and hubby Tony Parker having been soaking up the surf and sun, and these latest pics have got us dripping with envy!

There’s no doubt Eva Longoria had definite star power at this weekend’s screening of “Bright Star” at the Cannes Film Festival.
But what has us a little confused is deciding whether or not her icy blue gown was just the right amount of ta-DOW, or wheter it was just too wild and out.
