So many people complain that there aren't enough Latinos on television, and yet when they are, they need support.

I was born in platform heels. I actually always fall down when I'm wearing flip-flops.

My grandma has never been impressed with the TV show [Desperate Housewives]. She was so angry because I was on television kissing a boy naked; she's very traditional. She said: "If I ever see you kissing that boy again...".
