Guardians of the Galaxy star Zoe Saldana lands on the cover of September issue. The usually private star 36yr old star opens up to the magazine about her personal life and how she plans to raise her babies in a multilingual household to honor both her and her Italian husband’s heritage. Check out the excerpts below. Look for the issue to hit newsstands on Aug 12th.
The importance of teaching her child different languages:
“”Of course [our children] will speak the languages that we speak; my sisters and I grew up learning French and speaking English and Spanish, and because of that, we’re able to understand Italian and Portuguese. But I’m going to have to make a conscious effort to speak Spanish to my children, because I speak Spanglish.”
On what she wants in a man:
“I don’t want a man who worships me: Stay away from those. Worshiping doesn’t count as really seeing me. I like men who work with women, are challenged by women, learn from women.”
On how she keeps the intimacy fresh:
“[The most essential quality for a good sex life is] to be uninhibited. I’m not talking about bringing in a third person or watching porn all night: That’s what leads people to believe they are amazing in bed when they’re the worst ever. Pornography is not sex education—it’s the opposite! Don’t allow insecurities to close you off. Be creative.”
