Eva Mendes has revealed that she has a crush on Keira Knightley.

The Hitch actress admitted that she is attracted to both men and women, although she is happy in her relationship with producer George Gargurevich.

"I'm also in awe of Cate Blanchett because she just radiates effortless power. She is always rockin' out in an amazing dress unlike anyone else's," she said.

However, she admitted that Knightley is her current ideal woman, commenting that she has "the most striking face I've seen in a long time. I'm kind of crushing on her".

She added: "I'm obsessed with Keira Knightley. I think that she's just got it down. She takes chances, she's edgy, but she's always a lady. She is so unconventionally beautiful."
