Zoe Saldana, who played the new Uhura in J.J. Abrams' Star Trek and will voice a blue alien in James Cameron's upcoming Avatar, says she's not just a sex plaything.
Speaking to Details magazine, Saldana said: "I've always gravitated toward the Sigourney Weavers, the f--king Linda Hamiltons, the Angelina Jolies. I just love strong women that are in tune with their bodies—that don't just use their bodies as sex tools."
She also talked about her new role as sci-fi leading lady and about gravitating toward action films, learning to kick ass in combat training and playing a computer-animated 10-foot-tall alien, for which she also provided a performance through motion-capture technology.
"Motion capture isn't like shooting Shrek," Saldana said. "You're in a suit with all these dots on you, and whatever you do, they get it. Sam [Worthington] and I did all sorts of stupid s--t. If you burp, your character burps. I'd shake my booty, and you'd see my character shaking her booty."
Avatar opens Dec. 18, and Star Trek is now available on DVD and Blu-ray.
Why is it that women who pose in their underwear (Madonna, Britney, Zoe Saldana, etc) always insist that they are more than mere sex objects? The truth is they have careers BECAUSE they are sex objects! Trying to assert that they have hidden "depth" is an embarrassing waste of time for these women.I promise, you are the only one and I will respect you in the morning. Yes... I promise I will call...And I hate to break it to you but showing your body doesn't make you shallow or stupid its called using what god gave you! If Einstein had been a women I guarantee you would be able to find pictures of her in a bikini!.,
