We always thought Eva Mendes was really sweet, but apparently working with her can be a different story. A studio insider told us a rumor - that recently Eva was working on a film that shall remain nameless, and she was having trouble conjuring up the right emotions for a scene. Her character was supposed to be hysterical and she wasn't convincing. The director walked up and SLAPPED HER aross the face - instantly producing the desired results. Onlookers were shocked, but a few were secretly DELIGHTED. Some of the hair and makeup and wardrobe people thought Eva was rather demanding and not so grateful - they could barely contain their GLEE over that smack in the puss, and they haven't stopped talking about it.
