It's flattering that people think I'm sexy, but it's not the end-all, be-all. The minute I put my self-esteem on what they think I am, I'm screwed, because one day they're not going to think I'm sexy.

I used to love fast food because I had no money, and I was a struggling actor.

Maybe something that's acceptable in your teens or 20s is unacceptable in your 30s or 40s

It's important for me to work with a strong director because I know I can go to some really deep places, I just need direction on how to get there.

I love being naked. I do everything in the nude, even the gardening! We're Cuban, and it's a hot island. Why not?

I'm very free with my sexuality, but not everywhere all the time. I pick and choose when I do nudity, and who I do it for when I'm working, and when I'm doing it. I've done nudity twice in a film.

Knowing when someone's the real deal or not, but still with putting your guard up and self-protecting, you've got to stay open. It comes back to balance.
