I also have an amazing codesigner and an amazing partnership with New York & Co. The exciting part of growing together and having this kind of long-term relationship is that they can anticipate where I'm going with something. So our relationship is very defined, it's a true partnership so I'm not doing it all by myself.

I feel I'll take on the responsibility of showing the world a whole different kind of Latin woman.

I love it, but it's not important to me to always be thought of as sexy. I like it when it doesn't limit my career. It's a part of my life, but on a secondary plane

I think that, when you play a mother, whether you play a bad mother or a not so great mother or an amazing mother, being a mother is already so complicated. It's already three-dimensional, automatically, no matter what the role is, because you're playing a mother.

I love having a man in my life, and being his woman at the end of the day. I know it's a dichotomy.

I'm not an exhibitionist. But, honestly, for my art I'll do anything almost. I'll go there.

I know I walk a fine line between being a respected actor and being what they call a sex symbol.
