My driving abilities from Mexico have helped me get through Hollywood.
I've stolen a couple of hearts and they are in my private collection!
My heart has been stolen too - but I've gone and got it back every single time!
I keep waiting to meet a man who has more balls than I do.
I act tall! But look how short I am...I can't even act to be tall. I'm five-two. I can't even create the illusion that I am tall!
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. I grew up in Mexico, not the US, 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. Everyone's afraid of doing something a bit risky. Everyone wants a $200 million hit and anything they think might get in the way of that kind of success is considered a liability.
