Eva Mendes bans dad from watching her film

She doesn’t want him to see her first sex scene

Eva Mendes has banned her dad from watching her latest movie – because it contains her first sex scene.

The 32-year-old gets down with Gladiator star Joaquin Phoenix in gangland thriller We Own The Night.

‘I was cringing the entire time we were shooting it,’ she admits.

‘I was scared about doing it and I'm still like, “Oh my God, Dad cannot see this movie, Dad cannot see this movie!”’

The strict Catholic shed a few tears while she was getting to grips with Joaquin.

‘It was very difficult for me to shoot,’ she tells The Sun. ‘I was crying because it was my first ever love scene.’

Joaquin, 32, can’t be that bad in the sack, can he?
