Let me tell you, a vacation's not a vacation unless it involves the beach. And because of that, I'm super careful with my skin and make sure to protect it. I always sit under an umbrella. And I'm a sunblock bully. If you're on the beach with me, I will spray you down with SPF 50-plus. Latinos, especially, think that we don't burn or don't get sun damage because of our darker skin. And it's not true. We are just as susceptible to melanoma as everyone else.

On a television show, you basically make a movie a week. Movies take three months - it's crazy. They're so slow, it's like vacation to me.

I love being a woman. I love the sexiness we get to exude. But the best thing about being a woman is the power we have over men.

I'm not averse to being tied up in silk scarves. I like a man to take charge. There's something very sexy about being submissive.

I'm just blessed because I'm Mexican. Mexican Americans have amazing hair!

I grew up as the ugly duckling, they called me 'la prieta fea', which means ugly dark one - that was my nickname.

I grew up on a ranch with my father, so he educated us really early on about guns. We used to go target shooting all the time.
