It's not every day that you hear of a man taking his wife's last name, but that's exactly what Marco Perego did when they got married in 2013, InStyle reports.

Zoe opened up about it at her recent cover shoot for the magazine, saying she tried to talk him out of it: "If you use my name, you're going to be emasculated by your community of artists, by your Latin community of men, by the world."

His response? "Ah, Zoe, I don't give a shit."

And why should either of them care what other people think? It's 2015, after all. Congrats to Mr. and Mrs. Saldana!
