Eva Mendes says she's 'not big' on Valentine's Day

Los Angeles - Eva Mendes is "not big" on Valentine's Day.

The 39-year-old actress insists she and boyfriend Ryan Gosling - who she was rumoured to have split from - have no plans to celebrate the romantic holiday on 14 February, joking she will just watch the hunky actor's weepy movie The Notebook at home alone.

She told TV talk show host Ellen DeGeneres: "I'm not a big Valentine's Day person. I'll probably just order a deep dish and watch The Notebook or something."

The Place Beyond the Pines actress also laughed off recent reports she is pregnant after refusing to go through airport security scanners.

Eva insisted it was a decision she always makes because she finds the security checks "creepy".

She said: "It's so ridiculous. Because it all started because I didn't want to go through the scanners at the airport.

"You know those x-ray scanners, which are really creepy. They basically see you naked, right. And not only that, but there's a radiation aspect to it, so I always opt out. I always ask for a personal pat down."

Ellen then joked: "Alright, do you want to say is it a boy or a girl you're pregnant with?"

Eva replied: "Oh god, no no no! No!"
