Hollywood actress EVA MENDES has lashed out at comparisons to fellow Latina JENNIFER LOPEZ, insisting her career is "more serious".

The We Own The Night actress has made a name for herself in Hollywood with roles in box office blockbusters like Training Day, Ghost Rider, and Hitch, while La Lopez has carved out a career in music, film and fashion.

But Eva-The-Diva says she hates being pitted against JLo when people talk about successful Latinas.

Despite causing uproar in the US over her latest Calvin Klein ads - where she appears completely naked - Eva says she's a more serious an actress and much more dedicated to her career.

She says, "I would like to think I will have a more serious career than J.Lo.

We may both be of Latin origin but that's where the comparisons stop.

"She manages her career like the head of a big corporation, whereas the only thing I care about is becoming the best actress possible."

Miaowwwww.
