Star Trek star Zoe Saldana was inspired by Sigourney Weaver and Angelina Jolie to become the reigning queen of sci-fi movies but don't call her a sex symbol!
"I've always gravitated toward the Sigourney Weavers, the Linda Hamiltons, the Angelina Jolies," the New York-born actress tells Details magazine.
"I just love strong women that are in tune with their bodies — that don't just use their bodies as sex tools. I'm very dominant — feisty. I'm not a man-hater, just a very proud woman."
