I am so proud of my heritage and of being Latina. I would most definitely consider roles in Latin America.

I love my country. And I would have to renounce my Spanish citizenship to become a U.S. Citizen.

I didn't go to Latin America thinking, 'I'm gonna write a book. This is what I'm gonna do.' I went there to work for UNICEF and to learn.

Work aside, I think would have ended up in the U.S. because I like being here a lot. I really do.

You should never turn your back on the market that gave you notoriety and be who you are and give you the numbers it gives you in the United States. I can't deny that the success I've had in the United States or the success that 'Pulling Strings' was due to my work in Latin America.

I have a very deep care for Latin America, and, of course, for what was going on in El Salvador.

I want to continue working in Mexico, but I'd also like to work in other countries eventually, too. Working behind the camera is interesting for me, too.

My life would be in danger if I return to Mexico.

In English, I'm a little bit limited. I speak English as a second language, and that's a little limitation that I have to work around and I have to use it to my favor. So, yes, that's why I end up wanting to do more things in Latin America.

To be seen and to be respected for my work and acknowledged as a true American Latina... means a lot to me.
