I don't come from a wealthy or privileged background, and growing up I was always looking for the best quality at a price I could afford. My love of vintage is rooted in that. Drugstores were the mecca for the latest makeup trends and products.

I love sleeping. If there was an Olympics for it, I'd take gold. I'm Cuban. We love to sleep.

I don't cook. I respect food too much.

When I've been open and accepting of where I am, things start opening up.

I like the idea of playing a historical detective.

I love my curves and I embrace them.

I read a lot of scripts. I believe you've got to read one that you know you're not going to do, because you've got to educate yourself on what's out there to make the best decision for you.
