Do we love Rosario Dawson or what? I’ve always thought that she was really pretty in a unique sort of way, and hey, she was in Rent. She wasn’t my favorite Mimi – I don’t care what my friends say, Daphne Rubin-Vega will always be the Mimi of my heart – but she was still lovely. And now Rosario is covering this month’s issue of Shape, and I think even more highly of her for her lovely words:

“I remember everyone asking when I was doing press for the movie (Rent), ‘What did you do to look so thin? You looked great’ and I’m like, ‘I looked emaciated’ … It’s a form of violence, in the way that we look at women and how we expect them to look and be — for what sake? Not health, not survival, not enjoyment of life but just so you could look pretty. I’m constantly telling girls all the time, ‘Everything’s airbrushed, everything’s retouched. None of us look like that.”

You know, I respect the hell out of Rosario Dawson for saying this. It’s a real shame seeing amazingly beautiful ladies being Photoshopped to hell, and it’s sad to think that younger girls might think that that’s what they should actually look like. But hey, with Mimi Marquez, the heroin addict/stripper with a heart of gold, telling little ladies not to worry about Hollywood’s ridiculous standards for physical beauty, things just might be looking up!

So I was hanging out with this dude one time, and he was like “Ok, if you could only have sex with five people for the rest of your life, but you could have sex with them whenever you wanted, who would you pick?”  And I am a very indecisive person, so I pussyfooted around the question, asking additional questions like “is magic involved, do fictional characters count?” and “are they willing or is this some shady hostage situation?”  But I finally managed to select my five people, and after I recovered from the stress of that selection, I was like “what about you?”  And he said “Rosario Dawson.”  There was no hesitation, and really no additional names for a while, there was just the total confidence of “if I could have sex with one person in the whole world, it would definitely be Rosario Dawson.”

Based on that experience, I feel like there must be several people out there in the world who would also like to have sexual relations with Rosario Dawson.  Lucky for you guys, because the lady did a pretty sexy photo shoot with German GQ to promote her new movie, Unstoppable, which is out in November.

Here you go, you guys!  Also, you’re welcome.

Robert Pattinson has officially sold out.

The Twilight megahunk has dropped out of Parts Per Billion, the independent film he was supposed to begin shooting in Los Angeles this month, to ready himself for round two as vampiric heartthrob Edward Cullen.

“Unfortunately, the prep time and production schedule on New Moon haven’t left enough time for Robert to work on Parts Per Billion in the first quarter of this year,” the star’s agent, Nicholas Frenkel, told MTV.

No word yet on who will fill the heartthrob’s shoes on the indie flick, produced by and starring Rosario Dawson.

I wonder what Rosario Dawson thinks about all this!

I bet she’s pissed.

Talk about a red carpet accessory!

Rosario Dawson shows off her arm boo-boo at the Miami premiere of Seven Pounds.

Wonder how she got that thing!

Stupid Shia LaBeouf has his left hand in his damn pocket in EVERY SINGLE PHOTO from the Eagle Eye LA premiere. You can see a little hint of the cast here, but, for the most part, he’s just being a total cocktease about it. Whip it out, Shia!

Also there: Megan Fox, looking totally edible, Michelle Monaghan, looking totally pregnant, and Rosario Dawson, looking like she’s had some work done, but I can’t pinpoint what.

Rosario and this purple-sweatered fella were spotted getting rather cozy this weekend in Venice, CA.

Can anyone ID him?
