I Am Honored To Be

I Grew Up As The Ugly Duckling, They Called Me 'la Prieta Fea', Which Means Ugly Dark One - That Was My Nickname.

... It's Important That People Who Are Politically Active Understand Both Sides.

I've Always Been Business-minded. I Worked In Corporate America Before Becoming An Actress And Knew That Acting Wasn't The End But A Means To An End. It Gave Me The Platform And The Exposure I Needed To Do My Philanthropic Work. It Also Gave Me The Financial Security To Focus On My Other Businesses, Start New Businesses, And Even Help Other People Start Businesses.

As A Woman, You Feel Like You Can Change The Person, But I Don't Think That's The Way It Works.

I'm Very Literate On Policy. I'm Very Literate On The Issues, And I'm An American First. I've Been Involved In Politics Long Before I Was An Actress. I Just Happen To Have A Platform Now. I Just Happen To Have A Voice.
