Why You Should Know Gal Gadot

May 26, 2016

Gal Gadot aka “Wonder Woman” reveals how her everyday beauty routine helps her be a real life superhero mom.

If you don’t already know Israeli actress Gal Gadot, you will soon enough. She plays Wonder Woman in “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice”, and she’ll star in two sequels: “Justice League” and “Wonder Woman” (as the title role in the latter).

Gadot is also the face of the fragrance Gucci Bamboo (buy it here), as well as the new Gucci Bamboo Luxury Purse Spray, $39, which looks like a chic little weapon — something Wonder Woman would tuck into her belt. And the travel spritz suits the real Gal Gadot’s jet-setting lifestyle perfectly, as well.

We caught up with the actress right after she finished an around-the-world press tour for the Batman movie. In her everyday life, she admits to being a true beauty minimalist (“when I’m on the red carpet, I’ll wear lipstick — otherwise, I only ever wear balm,” she says), which gives her more time to spend with her young daughter.

Gadot took a minute out of her hectic schedule to answer our “Five Things” questionnaire and give us a peek inside her (extremely light) makeup bag.

Hello, my name is: Gal Gadot

For breakfast today, I had: Croissant and fruits

Three interesting things in my purse right now: Bamboo purse spray, iPhone and gums

One thing people would be surprised to know about me: I loovvvvve(!!!) chocolate.

We can totally relate to the love of Chocolate. Be sure to follow Gal Gadot on Twitter to keep up with her amazing life.

Rumors surrounding my demise have been mostly false. After a brief sojourn out into a strange world-- a world of big green things, and small fuzzy things, and no wireless fidelity to be found! --I have triumphantly returned, lusting for any sort of contact with the interwebz. Lolcats pictures are making me giggle, I'm posting trolling messages on bulletin boards, and I am even-- yes, it shames me to say this --watching AMVs on youtube.

Hopefully I'll get my electronic addiction back under control, and be at baseline nerdiness once again.

So I'm Kevin. I like to play videogames, and make snarky commentary about said videogames. My general approach to games tends to be a more pragmatic one, eschewing scholarly examinations in favor of simple questions like "is it fun?". When not playing videogames, I tend to browse craigslist in some effort to fill the aching hole in my heart. Thus far, nothing on the "free stuff" section has managed to do it, but I still hold onto hope!
