Penelope Cruz says being called sexy is “boring”.

The ‘Volver’ actress says she is tired of all the attention surrounding her looks and would much rather be admired for her acting talents.

Penelope, 32, said: “I don’t pay attention to people calling me sexy. It makes me nervous when people start using labels. It’s boring.

“I don’t understand why people tend to typecast you.”

Penelope’s former love Matthew McConaughey, who she met while filming action adventure ‘Sahara’, recently said she deserves to win an Oscar for her performance in her latest film ‘Volver’.

Matthew, who is still close friends with Penelope, said: “She is going to get an Oscar nomination for ‘Volver’, or she should. She is so excited about that film. I really hope she gets the recognition she deserves.”

Penelope should just get with Salma Hayek - that would be far from boring. While the two friends were promoting their flick "Banditas" Penelope grabbed Salma's butt to the delight of the paparazzi.

She explained: "I grabbed Salma's ass just to keep things moving, because everyone was a little slow.

"And, of course, the energy changed when I did that."

You know she wants Salma's nice melons!

I don’t think she’s sexy at all. Her nose is practicaly in her mouth.

Don’t worry Penelope, no one thinks you’re sexy. You won’t be typecast.

I personally don’t think she has anything to worry about. I have seen a whole lot better. Maybe if you learned to speak english better people may take you seriously.

What is wrong with you people???? Penelope happens to be a very intelligent woman, a great actress, and a very accomplished individual. She started acting when very young and has remained not only commited to her craft but has always led a very simple, uncomplicated life. She speaks 4 languages (French, Spanish, Italian and English) and was one of the top dancers at one of the most prestigious ballet companies in Spain. She’s a very brave girl with great brains. So what if she’s wary of being labelled the “sexy hispanic”? If I were an actress, I would be worried about that too - not everyone wants to be validated on looks alone you know. And babycakes, how many languages do YOU speak well? Huh? Sometimes people really surprise me…

Oh, and one more thing - Penelope has been “taken seriously” by her peers for a very long time now. She has received a large number of accolades not only in her native Spain but also from prestigious boards such as the Cannes and Venice film festivals, among others. She’s also Pedro Almodovar’s new muse and a life-long friend of Javier Bardem. You don’t get to be there unless you have some real talent to offer. And I, like colostomy, think she’s pretty hot too… only her beauty is far from conventional and has more to do with brains and confidence than T&A.

Well, farewell to yall, my days of talking nonsense and wasting energy and time on this or any other rag site are over. 

I’m gonna go find something more constructive to do than rag on these celebrities, that after all could give two shits about what you people say or do.

Man, I’m an idiot for having wasted so much time, worrying about what celebs do, say or behave.  I must admit though, I did get a couple of good laughs!!

You people can be funny as hell, but as part of my New Year’s resolution, I cant spend any more of my time in such a useless way!

I told you guys that Angelina Jolie was at least inspiring people to do something positive!

So Long suckers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, run the whiners off the board. Why go to a rag site if you don’t want to read it? No loss.

selma hayek is a 10. And penellope the reason no one takes you seriously is because you cant speak english.

Selma is gorgeous, Penelope is not.

I’d do ‘em both—preferably at the same time! :o)

The “you cant speak English” comments are as welcome as the homophobia . . .  what rock did you people crawl out from under?

toonces, the bigot comments about the English speaking most probably come from ppl who feel threated by successful individuals who actually CAN speak several languages… And you’re right - those types of comments are as low as homophobic or racist ones.

what a bunch of xenophobes. She can speak english, but her accent is what gets on her way. That’s why her acting sucks in american movies. She’s wonderful in Volver though, and she is hot. She may not be beautiful, but she’s curvy and hot.

sometimes I think she’s pretty- most of the time I don’t.  I’m sure she’s smart, and she has received many accolades for her acting….but I don’t think she’s sexy.

one has a face that is way too small for her body (penelope) and the other has a face that is way too big (selma) for her height.

compare the pics
