I was making almost minimum wage on 'The Young and the Restless.' But it was my first job, so I accepted my first quote. I had a great time on it, and it obviously led me to better things.
Immigration is not the top issue for Latinos. Latinos are like every other American - economy, jobs, healthcare, education.
My mom had four kids, one with special needs. She had a full-time job, and she still came home and made dinner for us every night, from scratch. It was amazing.
I've lost a lot of jobs because I was too pretty. And everybody's like "Oh, poor you." But seriously, you don't get the good roles when you're beautiful.
powerful, independent, modern woman. They say you usually don't make deals with a company. You make deals with people.
Ive always said I want a farmer, not a hunter. Hunters go for the kill and they move on. A farmer nurtures; he watches things grow.
Teri lives there, ... We just passed Teri's.
If they'd done that last time, we never would have had a problem.

It really inspired all of us. I don't think I'm anywhere near the actress she is, but I definitely aspire to be.
What a great ending to a magical year! The nomination is made all the more sweet by the fact that I'm in the company of my dear friends and co-stars.
