I spent my last year of high school in Latin America, and there's a edge of salsa under all of my rhythms.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I grew up dancing salsa - you know, a traditional Puerto Rican dance.
I grew up in a big ol' Latin family, so that's all the music we used to play - salsa music. We'd always dance and have fun. You know how families get down, man! We just had fun with it.
I come from a pop background, but I'm also a Puerto Rican and I do feel this music. My approach to salsa is a humble one, and I defy anybody to prove that I'm faking it.
I'm a big salsa fan!
It didn't even occur to me that I'm the last person in the world who should play salsa or Brazilian music.
I used to be so embarrassed by salsa; I wasn't into it.
I grew up next to the ocean, on the coast, and would dance the salsa all day, so I just learned those rhythms and knew how to move my body when I was very little.
Whenever I cook, I think of Spanish music, so I always have to listen to some sort of salsa. It gets your body going.
I started salsa dancing with a few different companies and started touring the country. It was fantastic, but I realized that I really wanted to talk every time we were performing. That's a problem because when you're dancing, if you stop to talk, that's not really cool to the other dancers.
De La Hoya doesn't know about salsa. He should keep on singing mariachis and leave the salsa to me. I'm good at salsa.
