When I'm Doing A Movie, That's When

When It Is Important For You To Say Something And You Find A Vehicle To Say It, Then Go For It. It Is So Rare When That Happens So I Think Every Minute Spent Fighting For It Is Always Worth It. Even If Nothing Ends Up Happening, It's Still Worth The Fight.

Art And Activism Seem To Go Together Naturally, The Idea Being That If You're An Entertainer, You Can Have A Voice, And If You Have A Voice, You Can Make A Difference. But If I Were Not An Actress, I Would Still Try To Extend Myself Beyond My Little Micro-universe Of My Job, Family And Personal Joy.

I Don't Believe In The So-called Latino Explosion When It Comes To Movies. Jennifer Lopez Doesn't Have An Accent. She Grew Up In New York Speaking English, Not Spanish. Her Success Is Very Important Because She Represents A Different Culture, But It Doesn't Help Me.

If I've Been Indulging In Rich Foods, A Cleanse Is A Wonderful Way To Hit The Reset Button.

I Grew Up In Mexico, Not The U.s., And The Fact Is That There Just Aren't Any Parts For Latin Actresses. I Have To Persuade People That My Accent Won't Be A Problem, But An Asset.
