I have the hugest . . . overbite. It`s so big, my older brothers and sisters used to call me "Bugs". I looked like a bottle opener. But I`ve never fixed my bite because it`s one of the things that makes me me. I used to get teased about the mole on my left cheek. In junior high the other kids would say, "You`ve got some chocolate on your face", and I fell for it every time. I said, "The minute I turn 18 I`m going to get that mole removed!" But I`m happy I didn`t. My best feature is my big hips. I`ve got some nice childbearing hips, and I feel very proud of them. When I was younger I thought they were too big. I wanted to be slimmer. But now I totally embrace them.

I don`t go to premieres. I attend film openings I`m in, and that`s about it. Fame and celebrity doesn`t matter to me. The longevity of my career does.

The celebrity world can be so ugly. Everyone seems to have slept with everyone else and it`s some sort of strange weird cycle. I don`t want to get into that.

It`s fun to be a woman. It`s fun to flirt and wear makeup and have boobs.

. . . I feel I`ll take on the responsibility of showing the world a whole different kind of Latin woman.
