As an immigrant, I appreciate, far more than the average American, the liberties we have in this country. Silence is a big enemy of morality. I don't want our blunders in history to get repeated.
I was the only girl in class who spoke Spanish and the first word I learned was 'stupid' because that's what the kid next to me called me,
I think every child, every person at some point in their life feels like they don't fit in, ... I wanted to plant some seeds with this book in young children today to realize how important it is to have your identity and to be who you are.
I strongly feel that we are all connected,
Noelle is apart from everyone else. She's like a person,
My job as an entertainer is to take you some place else. I love exploring different genres of music to please my fans.
There are so many beautiful things that are a part of the world, and I've always looked at life that way; I've always tried to put on a smile and a brave front, not just for my kids but in my own life and all the difficulties that I've gone through.
Music has been so healing in my life, so the fact that my music could be that for someone else is the best gift of my whole career. People have told me that they got married to my music, divorced to my music, and played my music while they were having their baby.
In this life, I'm always going to choose the positive.
I wanted very badly to be a mum. I'm a very maternal person. But at the point that I met Emilio I was focusing on a career. I never would have thought that I would get married at 21 and much less be a mum by 23.
People tend to forget that celebrities are human beings. We live our lives. We try to do what we love, which is music. And to share it with everyone in our job usually is to entertain and to make people forget their troubles.
In the United States, if you believe in yourself and you're determined and persevere, you're going to succeed.
We are simply a family that now feels very threatened.
We want it to be clarified to us why this family, who has been guarding this boy, is being compelled to betray his trust and hand him over on a silver platter.
