Quote
1 I always promised myself if I ever got the chance to do a Flashdance (1983)-type of movie, I would do my own dancing. I can say with pride that every single dance move in Go for It! (2011) is my own dance move.
2 I felt completely at home in Mexico–speaking Spanish to my cousins, running around Acapulco and stuffing my face with mole and homemade tortillas. Mexico opened my heart.
3 In George Lopez (2002) I played Veronica. who’s a bratty 18-year-old, and so I feel like it’s much easier for me to play that because I feel like a late bloomer. It wasn’t difficult or challenging at all because it’s not like I haven’t been a teenager.
4 Latinos are the fastest growing minority, and we’re obviously not going anywhere. We’re extremely loyal as a people, and I think Hollywood is starting to recognize that. It’s very rare for a major studio to nationally distribute a film with Latino talent, not only in front of the camera, but also behind the camera.
5 To me, acting is like tennis. You’re only as good as the person you’re playing with, so if you’re playing with Michael C. Hall, what do you have to worry about?
6 I’m dating a very high-maintenance career.
7 I have been a fan of Dexter (2006) since the pilot. Once I got the audition I just squealed, and you would have thought I just won 45 million dollars.
8 It’s so exciting to headline a film. It’s not every day you see a Latina carrying a full-length feature.
9 When I was a kid, it wasn’t very often that I could go to the movies and see an entire movie carried on the shoulders of someone who looked like me.
10 Education equals choices. I have been blessed with the choice to be anything I ever wanted to be, and I truly owe my happiness to my family and education.
