eating-well work-out healthy
I stay healthy through eating well, working out - simply living a healthy lifestyle.
new-york empowerment care
New York doesn't care who you are or where you came from.
zero acting lessons
Go learn the language. Go take some acting lessons. Start from zero like everybody else.
heart would-be horror
I don't understand it, but every horror film is huge. I would consider one, but I don't know if my heart would be in it.
letting-go who-i-am rejection
My greatest obstacle has to be accepting that the business that I chose to be part of is based on rejection and constantly trying to prove yourself. Letting go of seeing my accent and the way I speak as a limitation. Accepting it as who I am and where I came from.
sexy thinking laughing
I love someone who can make me laugh. And someone who's secure - I think that's sexy.
new-york piano numbers
I was ballet dancing at four, playing piano by six, and doing commercials by 12. When I was 21, I was on the number one live comedy show in Puerto Rico. I told my parents, 'I'm going to New York to become a performer.' And I left.
blessed play people
I've been blessed because every single role I've done has been an educated person. I've never done the stereotypical Latina, even though I have an accent - I've always been able to play educated people. That's a good thing!
daughter taken inspiration
Many things inspire me, but at this moment in my life, my daughter is my greatest inspiration. Working hard has taken on a whole new meaning since I had her. I want to make a great life for myself so she can have a great life.
girl mother dream
My mother always gives the best advice. When I left Puerto Rico to pursue my dreams, she always supported me and said to me, 'I'm never going to cut your wings, so don't let anyone else do that to you.' That has been my philosophy through life. I want to share that valuable lesson with my little girl someday.
mean years dancing
I would love to do a musical. When I did 'Fame L.A.' for a year - all the singing, dancing and acting - I was in heaven. I cried so much when they cancelled the show. I mean, I loved going to work and I couldn't wait to get on the set.
months miserable
I love what I do. When a month goes by and I'm not working, I'm miserable.
