I like to isolate myself when I work because I end up losing my voice by doing interviews all day.

I'm too vain, one of my biggest sins, but it saved me; I can see what excess does.

I have just as much woman in me as I have man. It's just a matter of channeling the energy into which way you use it.

Most performers take themselves too seriously. They forget there is a difference between the characters they play on the screen or stage and themselves, but the public doesn't forget there is a difference. They see how silly it is if you try to be the same person all the time.

I was the only black girl at my junior high school. I had an afro, a Jamaican accent, I looked really old.

That's what they do in Argentina. Have a little wine and talk. Then have some coffee and talk. Then, go back to the wine.

I like to think of myself as a positive person. Otherwise I wouldn't have had a child.
