Eva Mendes is by far much smarter than she may give herself credit for. The star of Hitch said during a recent interview: "One of the things that first attracted me to my boyfriend is his brain. Brains are the most important thing to me because I feel I lack them."

Just by this statement, the Cuban-American actress is proving that she's indeed quite brilliant! The fact that she appreciates brains over fame, her candor, and her willingness to show her nipples from time to time are turning Eva Mendes into one of the most popular celebrities ever. Now, that's smart PR!
