I was an accidental model. One day I was asked to me a model by a neighbor who was short on models. Then I got into TV.

I thought that I was going to have to pay them to do what I wanted to do, that was how much fun I was having. You're 20 years old and you're hanging out with rock stars and going to fabulous parties, and then you talk about it!

I was born in Havana, Cuba and raised in Madrid, Spain. Then I moved to New Jersey.

Fits did not go over well in my house. There was a lot of discipline and obedience and you had to be very ladylike. Ladies didn't curse and I still don't curse in front of my parents.

And right away as soon as I started doing Pilates, about 2 to 3 weeks into it I could tell that my clothes were already fitting differently. And I felt stronger than ever. My core felt tighter than ever.

TV is my first love and I haven't disappeared from it totally.

I just thought any workout that is effective and I can do while laying down I'm signing up for.
