We were under the impression that it doesn't take much to keep Ryan Gosling happy (after all, this is a guy who skipped the Oscars to go to Disneyland), but it seems his partner, Eva Mendes, has other ideas.

During a recent interview with Extra, Mendes revealed how she keeps "Hollywood's hottest leading man happy at home" - and yes, that's a direct quote. What century are we in again?

While we kinda wish Mendes had given the interviewer the red carpet finger, she graciously laughed it off and joked, "You can't do sweatpants...ladies, number one cause of divorce in America: sweatpants, no!"

Mendes was also asked her secret to looking good post baby, and luckily, she stressed how much help she'd had in recent months, particularly in the leadup to her April Women's Health cover.

"You're helped in those situations, I want women at home to know, you're lit, you're angled, so yes, it was a few months after the baby, but with a lot of help."

Mendes also took the opportunity to talk about her new baby daughter, Esemeralda, and her new appreciation for her own mother.

"Now I understand so much, my mother's never gotten more 'I love you so much mommy' texts, I mean, randomly... ya, I get it now."
