Chris Evans: “I like women who get emotional about babies and puppies”

When Chris Evans was on the promotional trail for The Avengers, certain things became obvious. Like, we now know that he’s a really neurotic bastard. We also know that he’s single and ready to mingle, but he’s looking for his perfect girl who has an other-worldly blend of traits. It seems that Chris is looking for a Boston Girl who always has wet hair, wears sweatpants and who will “give me a hard time, bust my chops a little.” He likes girls who “make fun of themselves.” And most of all, he says, “I just want someone with a good soul. That’s about it. The rest I’m really flexible on. I like a good ass, though. I will say that. I can say that? I like a big ass.” So, there you go. Big ass, from Boston, just out of the shower, wearing sweatpants, willing to bust his chops and willing to be made fun of. But wait! Chris has another requirement:

Chris Evans is a man who knows what he wants.

In a new interview with Women’s Health, The Avengers actor, 31, admits he’s ready to settle down, but he’s yet to meet The One. “I like women who get emotional about babies and puppies. I’ve met some incredibly cool women who are tough, but the woman you marry should have a really soft side.”

Evans — who once dated his London costar Jessica Biel — despises “arrogance and false modesty” in relationships. “Nothing is worse than a beautiful girl fishing for compliments by saying how gross she is. On the flip side, I find genuine humility and modesty attractive.”

The Boston native doesn’t like when a woman plays hard to get, either. “I hate that!” he says. “I just don’t like games in general.”

After all, Evans has nothing to hide. “I’m a pretty decent tap dancer,” he reveals to Women’s Health. “I enjoy all types of dancing, actually. I get a couple of drinks in me and I stand up — it just happens.”

Love the Jessica Biel name-check. As for Chris’s requirements – I don’t think they’re any big deal, mostly because I fall into many of these categories. I have a big ass. I was born in Boston, Massachusetts (although I self-identify as Southern, having lived in the South most of my life). I’m wearing sweatpants right now, and my hair is still damp from a morning shower. I can bust chops too, although I do find it difficult to have my chops busted. I don’t cry over babies. I do cry over puppies and kittens though. And I cry at those Olympics commercials about “The hardest job is the best job” motherhood thing. Those commercials are KILLING ME at the gym. I’ve burst out in tears on the treadmill watching them. So… basically, I’m Chris Evans’ perfect bitch. Come and get me, you neurotic bastard. YEAH I SAID IT.

Also – I don’t want to talk about the gonorrhea thing. We’d probably get a letter from his lawyer about it anyway. All I’ll say is that gonorrhea is totally treatable and it’s not a total dealbreaker.

    I feel like being around him would be exhausting. One minute he’d be totally chill, then he’d flip out and become super paranoid or something.

  2. jazzmin says:

    Chris Evans, I will get emotional over black fungus in the bathtub if it means you’ll be right there to comfort me.

  3. Maguita says:

    Not to insult Eve and K, but what’s the attraction??

    He leaves me cold. Very. Borderline Frigid. And I am considered to be very-much Boy-Crazy.

    • ZenB!tch says:

      He was kinda hot in Capt. America/Avengers but he is not hot in these pics.

      I think I say that about most guys these days… except Fassbender and Cumberbund. I just don’t get those two.

    • Zoid says:

      Same. :/ and it’s sad cuz I can SEE where the hotness SHOULD be, but it’s not there. And the interviews aren’t helping. It would be beyond stressful to date him, or at least that’s the vibe I get from his ‘perfect girl’ quotes.

    • Eve says:

      Girls, I don’t mind when people don’t agree with me — in fact, I kinda like that not everybody out there shares my tastes.

      About Evans wanting a girl who gets emotional about puppies…sadly, I may not be the one. I get emotional about kittens (all felines in the world, actually).

      • Oh no…Where are the kittens…the kittens!! Eve,your gonna have to have a talk with your man.I’m thinking he might not deserve you…

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        Eve-I get SO emotional about kittehs! The worst are the Sarah McLachlan SPCA commercials. I have to change the channel because I instantly start crying 🙁

      • Eve says:

        @ HorsePoorHanna:

        You’re right. I need to have a little talk with him. After the crazy sex, of course.

        @ OriginalKitten:

        I’m a cat person through and through. Can’t, don’t want to, won’t ever be able to change that.

        P.S.: Internet connection is really shitty today. Will have to say goodbye for now (or, at least, while I’m still sane).

      • Eve says:

        @ HorsePoorHanna:

        By the way, if the conversation doesn’t work, I’ll replace him with this:

        http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4x9KrBvPw3s/TpjmOAOFZ3I/AAAAAAAAS0Q/Xt72SxCvcQY/s1600/506x316_oscar.jpg

        This is “my type” to a T.

      • Lisa says:

        THIS. I’m happy to be a crazy cat lady at 24. I don’t own any officially, but the cats in my neighbourhood don’t seem to mind. 😉

    • Maguita says:

      Lol Eve.

      Oddly enough, I’m the one who gets emotional about puppies.

      Makes you then wonder, maybe Chris is always after girls who are not interested in him!??

      No?

      • Eve says:

        I’m starting to think I may not be “his type” after all…but hey!, my ass gets considerably bigger when I put on weight, so there’s hope for me, right? Right?

      • Maguita says:

        Yes, Eve, there is always hope for you!

        BTW, your “husband” would have not contracted – ALLEGEDLY- that STD if you didn’t so freely pass him around!

        Being so generous with one’s husband, even if it lifted so many of the ladies’ spirits, just didn’t pay off here Eve 😉

      • Eve says:

        I’ll keep that in mind…

        Although I don’t think he (ALLEGEDLY) got that from any of my fellow celebitches here.

      • mayamae says:

        I don’t trust people who aren’t emotional about baby animals. It’s an empathy thing for me.

      • Maguita says:

        @Eve, VERY WELL PLAYED. Putting me on the defensive for – ALLEGEDLY – implying that your “lending” out your husband to fellow CeleBitches got him diseased. Well played chica, I bow in admiration.

        @mayamae, Not a fan of babies or kittens. The only cute baby was my nephew. He is now the most gorgeous toddler ever.

        My empathy rather runs towards women’s issues and rights. Maybe it does mean that I am a cold-heart b-tch…

        But puppies… I cannot resist. The smell of puppies, the shenanigans of puppies. I melt.

      • mayamae says:

        Maguita – I am an RN and have been accused of being cold hearted on occasion. You develop a little detachment or you can’t function.

        Animals on the other hand – total freak to the extent of being vegetarian and fantasizing about red paintball gunning a mink farm billboard (not quite that brave). The owner had the nerve to brag and put on airs about his business – almost bit my tongue off!

        I used to be a peds nurse and developed that detachment but years later, babies are just like any other baby animal to me.

        I am a passionate liberal so can identify with your women’s rights issues. Since as women we can stand up and speak for ourselves, I can’t resist speaking for those who literally have no voice.

      • Eve says:

        @ Maguita:

        Very well (but involuntarily) played…because I wasn’t trying to put you on the defensive. It’s true: I only passed him around here on Celebitchy — this is the only place where I’m “generous”.

      • Amelia says:

        I get emotional about all animals in general. It’s kind of bad, really. Last week someone in my Uni class broke his leg and I was pretty much ‘meh’.
        But show me an animal charity advert and little baby snow leopards and I’ll be reaching for my wallet and a tissue.
        I am not going to br helpful for the evolution of the human race.

      • Eve says:

        @ Amelia:

        I’m like you. I get emotional about animals a way more than I get about people.

      • Maguita says:

        Oh it breaks my heart those animal abuse commercials, or dog-pound abuse stories on the news. I break!

        But I’m not one who goes all gaga because of a baby picture. It doesn’t do much… Case in point, True Blood twin pregnancy post today: Everyone is talking about how one can get pregnant with twins… While I talk about Eric Northman’s fine ass, and improved kissing technique… @mayamae may be right.

      • Tiffany27 says:

        Eve- I agree. I’m starting to think I’m actually not his type. He seems like he wants a boring girl the more interviews I read. HOWEVER, I think we would be perfect in the bedroom 🙂

  4. toto says:

    where is Eve ? her Chris in red 🙂

    • Eve says:

      Here, here!!!

      I still love him — it’s just that recently I’ve been cheating on him a lot with Tom Hiddleston and Oscar Isaac.

      • toto says:

        Hey 🙂
        keep cheating Girl until we can know what he wants exactly. lol

      • Eve says:

        And I will (keep cheating on him). I mean, that Hiddleston guy…I tried my best to resist his dorky charm but failed miserably. And Oscar Isaac? After watching “Robin Hood” and “Drive” he’s *thisclose* to becoming my # 1 crush.

      • pato says:

        it´s impossible not to cheat with Hiddleston around. So that was you… 😉

  5. Kola says:

    I’m kind of over him after the whole you-know-what fiasco (don’t want to get sued lol).

  6. bns says:

    He’d hate me then. I do love puppies, but not enough to get really emotional.

  7. Samigirl says:

    If he likes a girl who cries, I’m his lady! Seriously…I cry over EVERYTHING. Also, I have a big booty. The ONE thing running wont make smaller :-/

  8. TheOriginalKitten says:

    God I love him. I love the neurosis, I love the fact that he loves messy Boston chicks. The bday Gonorrhea-I’m about ready to pretend it’s not true. He’s about to be re-hired into my maturbatoy rotation on a probationary basis. Meaning-no more STD stories, no douchiness for a year and he’s golden. I’m sure this news has him jumping up and down with excitement.

    • Chatcat says:

      And since you are a Boston girl you get to move to the front of the line! Yeah…

      Now I don’t want you to put yourself in danger or be mistreated at all, so as long as you are sure you can handle his neurotic tendencies and he understands he is on probation from his transgressions, then I bless his involvement in your “rotation”. Have fun 🙂

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        Thankyou, Chat. Your approval means a lot! I think I’ll have to take the Eve route and make him wear a condom in my fantasies 🙂

  9. Alice says:

    Love the first pic, his facial expression is the same as his character in the movie “Not another teen movie”.

    Other than that, he’s not doing it for me…he’s just meh.

  10. Chatcat says:

    Does anybody think it’s ironic that Chris Evans, Mr. Gonorrhea himself, gave an interview to Women’s Health?

    And then this “I enjoy all types of dancing, actually. I get a couple of drinks in me and I stand up — it just happens.” I am thinking a whole lot more happens when he has a couple of drinks in him…like unprotected sex ‘just happens”…ALOT apparently.

    Ok, back to the gonorrhea issue…because it’s treatable it’s not a deal breaker is simply not for me. Ok so it’s treatable, but the fact that he has it is in’dick’ative of riding bareback with little to no care for him or his sex mate, that would be the deal breaker for me!

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      “Chris Evans, Mr. Gonorrhea himself, gave an interview to Women’s Health?”

      LMFAO!!!
      I’m dying laughing over here!
      …but in all seriousness, you’re coming dangerously close to talking smack about my man, Chat! You’ve been warned 🙂

    • Malificent says:

      Ya know, I’m not going to assume that he’s an ass just because he’s had the clap. “Nice” people get STDS too. Lots of STDs, including gonorrhea, can be asymptomatic in a lot of people. He could have gotten it from a steady girlfriend as easily as a cheap pick-up. And there is probably no one on this thread who hasn’t had less-than-safe sex at least once in their lives….

  11. Kitty says:

    Who is this guy?

  12. Mitch Buchanan Rocks! says:

    Not sure who this dude is but he really looks a lot like James Blunt.

  13. Me says:

    A girl who cries over puppies and babies. Gross.

  14. Jenna says:

    I fit the bill for everything except being from Boston…I like the Pats though! Yep, I’d still tap that! Love Captain Sexy! 😀

  15. T.C. says:

    I think for each interview something random runs through his head about women and he just blurts it out. Next it will be red nail polish “I love a woman who can wear red nail polish well”.

  16. valleymiss says:

    I love reading any interview with Chris Evans. It’s almost like his publicist and agent haven’t given him enough media training, so he just kinda says whatever. It’s kinda fun to read fairly unfiltered stuff.

    As far as him being “picky” about his female requirements…nah…he just has a type. At least his type makes sense and doesn’t contradict itself. I HATE it when guys are like, “She has to be able to get ready in 10 minutes and be able to go from the hiking trail to a night on the town with no problem.” Say what? Guys who hate it when girls wear makeup, but then complain to their guy friends when she looks like she just rolled outta bed. I can see why he dated Jessica Biel, actually. She’s a very athletic, sweatpants type. You only see her gussied up at premieres and events. Otherwise, she’s ponytail girl, walkin’ her dog.

    My brother has a certain type (and you can bet I give him sh*t for it!) He always dates short girls, like 5’4″ and under (he’s well over 6′). He likes girls in ponytails with no makeup who are into a sport or ballet or hiphop dance or something. And he likes ethnic girls (his last 3 gf’s have been Filipina, black, and Latina). We’re Caucasian. I tell him that if he introduces me to a 5’10” blond with acrylic nails and lots of makeup, I’ll fall over from shock!. 😀 His gf’s always are wearing track pants and either just came from the gym, or are on their way to dance practice. That’s his type.

    • Chatcat says:

      Valley…that is funny. I love when siblings can taunt each other like that!

      I can’t remember my brothers having a type per say, but my two oldest boys (well 21 and 24) definitely do. The oldest likes them athletic and brunette…the 21 y/o likes them with long blonde hair! I feel every picture I have with them at proms, or parties or whatever their “dates” are interchangeable!

      • valleymiss says:

        Yeah, I like to tease my brother. I have to say, he always picks really sweet girls. I’ve loved his 3 serious gf’s. He never picks pretentious snotty chicks and I’m thankful for that. That’s funny about your sons. I have to say, I think guys (and girls) who have a type make a lot more sense than those who don’t. Have you ever known someone that you just couldn’t figure out the common thread between their significant others? Lol

      • Chatcat says:

        Oh for sure I’ve known the “what the hell are they doing together” couples. But hey, if they make it work… 🙂

        It is interesting to watch my boys’ attractions develop, all while keeping my big mouth shut. They can razz each other, but I dare not say a word or I’ll never get to meet another one of the girls until she is walking down the aisle! lol

  17. EmmaStoneWannabe says:

    So he’s looking for (a version of) JWow. Got it.

  18. AnneOriginal says:

    “All I’ll say is that gonorrhea is totally treatable and it’s not a total dealbreaker.”

    Actually there is a strain that is proving to be resistant to antibiotics. People need to be more proactive about their sexual health. And doctors also need to stop prescribing antibiotics for things that they are not intended for. This is why they are becoming less effective.

  19. Nanea says:

    Kaiser, what’s up?

    Did Fassy do anything to make you change allegiances? Or Cumby? Or Hiddles?

    • Kaiser says:

      I’m still into Fassy, but there are no new photos or interviews with Fassy. I go where the stories are.

      • Chatcat says:

        @Kaiser…OriginalKitten and I were commenting on this very thing yesterday. I think there are many in need of a Fassy fix so here’s hoping that he pops up somewhere real soon.

      • T.C. says:

        Isn’t Fassy filming that Counselor movie right now with Brad Pitt and Javier Bardem? Maybe that’s why no new interviews. No more Prometheus promos.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        That’s what Chat and I figured, Kaiser. Looks like he doesn’t have anything else coming out for a while either. Going to be a long Fass-less summer.
        Boo 🙁

      • LucyOriginal says:

        A Fassy-less Summer?! noooooo!!!
        Fassy, listen: I know you live in London. But I will be in Dublin on Aug 24th, meet me up at the Writers museum at noon. See you there!
        hahahaha

      • maemay says:

        Goodness SassyFassy’s and Cumberbitches they are in NOLA!!!! get thee to NOLA!

        It is the epicenter of British Hotness! They are filming 12 years a slave! Between the heat, the alligators, the mosquitas and the hurricanes I hope they make it out alive.

      • Chatcat says:

        Damn Mae…I’m leaving for vacation when I’m done in the office tomorrow for 10 days and my plans are solidified. I sure wish I knew Fassy was in the Big Easy so I could have planned my vacation down there and make myself a Big Easy. Grrrrr.

    • LucyOriginal says:

      @Mae: Oh no…my vaca is only in Aug and the destination is Ireland. Sorry Fassy, I won’t change my schedule around to stalk you, hahaha. If you want to meet up with me, you know where to find me, 😉

  20. Melissa says:

    I feel like I’m reading an issue of Tiger Beat, with all of Chris’ likes and dislikes!

  21. Dredz says:

    That will be me 😀

  22. Tifygodess24 says:

    It’s gross to say but atleast with him you know what you get and his reputation. How many women have been in relationships with men and they had no idea of the bad rep they had before they met them or the fact they could have had a -treatable- STD at some point….I’m just saying you don’t know and can’t always assume someone would tell you something especially if it happened before you got together. That’s why women need to make sure they protect themselves. I still think he’s attractive, but I would prob put on a full hazmat suit if I knew it was going there with him… You know just in case lol 😉

  23. RobN says:

    Meh.

  24. Fofototto says:

    Big a$$, sweatpants, wet hair, emotional about babies and puppies, can take a joke and give him a hard time..LOL, way to over share. That’s a pretty specific list. The gonhorrea is a def deal breaker for me. I have to say I did find him very attractive as Captain America.

  25. Kim says:

    Don know much about him but everything he says here I agree with 100%. I cant stand false modesty and game playing & I love to dance. He sounds like a charming young man.

  26. iseepinkelefants says:

    Basically he wants a chavy chick from Boston (or whatever the MA equivalent of a chav is), some chick who’s tough and busts his balls but she’s gotta cry over kittens and babies?

    Am I the only one who thinks he’s one of those douche-y guys that constantly contradicts himself?

    Though he’s not my type (even though I used to love that classic Americana look, blue eyed british men do it for me now) I will concede that I do love a guy that’s forthcoming about marrying and all that. There’s something sexy about it (bravo Chris’ PR people for realizing that’s the way to keep the female fan base strong).

    Side note I was always surprised that he and Biel never made it. Weren’t they together for a long time?

  27. LucyOriginal says:

    getting emotional over babies? I may cry over babies when I fly with one next to me who doesn’t let me sleep. LOL. But I love kittens and dogs, 🙂
    Huge ass? no, what I have huge is in the front. Not from Boston, but live here. Basically, I am not his type and I am ok with that, thanks! 🙂

    ps:If I only were Paul Walker’s type…

  28. Mira says:

    Boston Girl = NO
    Wet hair = Check
    Sweatpants = Check
    Big ass = Check
    Emotional about babies = No
    Emotional about puppies/dogs = Check
    Really soft side = 80/20, 80 being soft
    Arrogance and false modesty = I’d definitely say No.
    Humility = Check
    Play hard to get = Depends

    That’s 7/10. My first big score 😀

  29. Katija says:

    “I like when my publicist gives me a script before interviews.”

  30. NYC_girl says:

    I was born in Framingham, and I’ll even share my klonopin with him. 🙂

  31. natavalita says:

    his teeth look fake

  32. Feebee says:

    I’m emotional about lots of things for about a week a month but then I can look a puppy and think it’s just another dog the rest of the time.

  33. Anon says:

    The latest victim for the speech; he will be well rewarded as he graduates to Celebrity Retirement where one simply obeys; stays a certain way while raking in the dough making profitable mediocre movies to torture the rest of the planet. Too bad it did not work for Gerald Butler. I hope Chris succeeds in this endeavour. The next in line will be oddly Gosling and Fassbender; the sad part both have the potential to be great actors. I hope they resist; the only actor who fit that part today is
    Mr Christopher Plumber.

  34. stellalovejoydiver says:

    Sounds like his ideal woman is Jennifer Garner.

  35. Now THAT is smoldering sexy!!

  36. Dani says:

    I’m his perfect woman … too bad this guy does nothing for me.

  37. RdyfrmycloseupmrDvlle says:

    Sounds to me as if he shares the same sucky PR flack as Ryan gosling. rememebr all that stupid BS Ryan used to constantly be quoted as saying?? Total BS meant to play up to his female fans. Now this idiot saying dumb stuff they THINK women want to hear. Just awkward. Just be yourself Chris and admit who you are. same to you Gosling. Puppies and babies. give me a break.

  38. pato says:

    I have an unhealthy obssesion about him (and Hiddleston, more Tom in recent weeks than Chris) but the feminist in me is starting to kick in.
    the only good thing is that we never saw him with an anorexic model or actress so he might be saying the truth about his type of woman.
