The star of Colombiana, Zoe Saldana, is gearing up or her release later this month.  And she's covering every magazine on the stands in the meantime. 

She appears almost ethereal in an Oscar de la Renta coral and metallic sheer dress with a silver sparkling oversized belt on the new EBONY mag cover.  And the fab chick is discussing being Black and Latina, her brand new movie, and everything else in between.

The cover story, written by Adrienne Samuels, tracks Zoe's Queens/Puerto Rican/Dominican roots as her path to get to superstardom.  And she discusses how her hardcore background parallels overcoming the hardships of black Hollywood:

“When I go after a part, [people] better watch their backs,” she says. “Not because I’m going to crush everybody, but because I’m going to give the best that I can because I strive for excellence. When you don’t get a part, it is for a reason, and these pieces will fall into place soon. … We have a Black president right now, so why the f--- would I sit down and talk about how hard it is for Black women in Hollywood when there’s a Black president in my country?”

Here's the behind-the-scenes footage of her shoot:

The issue is on newsstands now.
