Eva Mendes was turned away from a party in the block of flats where actor Heath Ledger died after the landlords called it off.

Fashion house Calvin Klein threw a party in the penthouse of the New York block of apartments - one floor above the unit where Ledger lived and died in January - on Wednesday.

But the landlords - who were unaware of the party - called it off.

A video if Mendes leaving the soiree has been posted on TMZ.

Eva Mendes may have checked herself into rehab in January to prepare for a new movie, in which she plays a Spanish drug lord.

The 30-year-old actress entered Utah’s Cirque Lodge to “proactively” attend “to some personal issues”, her representative explained at the time.

The move shocked Hollywood, until Mendes landed a role alongside Josh Hartnett and Ben Kingsley in Queen of the South, which follows her character Teresa Mendoza, who flees Mexico for Spain when her drug-runner boyfriend is murdered.

Gossips are speculating she may have been researching the role in rehab - a theory backed by leading acting coach John Kirby.

He tells Star magazine, “It’s not unusual at all for an actor or actress to go to the extreme of checking into rehab to prepare for a character.
“In fact, I would encourage that for my students, because you want to fully immerse yourself in the role.”
