At heart I am a tomboy.
— La La Anthony
When you're independent, you're with somebody because you want to be there not because you feel like you have to be there.
My mom always says, 'Worry when people don't care about you.' And that's what I tell myself.
My whole family cooks and I'm in charge of setting the vibes.
I proved to myself that I can overcome a lot of things that probably would have broken some people.
I have to be able to work and do the things I do. And I want to be able to be an example of my son.
I hate when hair looks like it's been styled.
I don't think there's anyone that's more beautiful than Halle Berry.
There's a lot of jewelry in my bag. It's great because if a bracelet is bothering me or I want a midday change, I switch to another.
I pray every morning and night before bed.
Marriage is hard.
It's a common issue that you see out there, where some families aren't as accepting of what people choose to be in their life.
I enjoy making people laugh and making them smile.
When I go to these auditions, I feel like I have to prove myself 10 times over... acting is a challenge.
I have a very strong faith in God, and I have a strong family base.
The industry just hasn't been thinking outside the box when it comes to Latina women.
I definitely don't feel like I'm what Hollywood thinks of when they think of a Latina actress at all. They can't wrap their minds around it.
Whenever I do Zoom teeth whitening my teeth 'zing' so bad. They're so sensitive. But I just put this on my toothbrush with water and scrub hard. It doesn't taste like anything and it works!
I think being independent gives you a different confidence about yourself. It gives you more power, especially in certain relationships.
Having my name on a cosmetics line has always been a dream, one I'm excited to share.
I live for my son.
I learned that life is filled with ups and downs and it's just about how you react to them.
I had to know that for me to be successful in all aspects of my life, I have to work.
I think I've gotten really good at putting on lashes. I can do it with my hand while people need tweezers or something to put them on.
I have a kid so I like to take pictures.
My wallet is full of change. I'm like, Why is this bag so heavy? Oh, yeah. It's the $100 in quarters!
I'm terrified of mice or any type of rodent.
I love Will Smith and Jada Pinkett. You see the love, and you can see the support, and they partner on things and produce together. But she has a life, and he has a life.
I want to expand what I do and definitely focus a little more in the acting, theater world.
There's something great about life when you can do something you enjoy.
I definitely had to take a lot of direction from stylists and make up artists and hair stylists, because I'm very much more of a sweat pants and sneakers kind of girl.
You can have a passion for something, but you still have to pay the bills.
My grandfather was extremely dark and from Puerto Rico, but his brother had blond hair and blue eyes. There are so many different shades, and I think Hollywood has yet to realize that.
That is my priority, that my son is healthy and happy. I will do whatever I can to ensure that, and my husband is the exact same way.
Being independent opens the doors to so many other things for you.
There's nothing like Christmas in New York.
Tailgating is going to the game, homegating is celebrating at home. So you bring in the apparel, the T-shirts, the accessories to kinda make your home feel cool.
My son is my best friend.
I'm someone that's a hard worker and takes their job seriously and gives it all they've got.
When your love for your kid is at the center of everything, you can't go wrong.
If you feel good about yourself on the inside, that's gonna show to people. I don't think it's all about makeup and hair and how you dress. I think it's more of an inner thing and how you feel about yourself and that's ultimately what will shine through no matter what.
I carry Caress Body Wash in Tempting Whisper to clean my hands. The scent lasts throughout the day!
My eyes change colors - weird!
I'm a gambler and love slot machines.
Just to be a part of anything that Queen Latifah is involved in is an honor, because she's such an amazing person and an amazing actress.
There's many sides to a coin and one person can in fact do a lot of different things.
I see myself stepping more heavily into the producing world. I like having that control, and being in control so to speak, and being part of picking great material and bringing it to life.
I'm very forthcoming, I'm really expressive.
When I moved to Los Angeles to be on the radio, there was an acting school on every corner. You can't be in L.A. and not be into acting.
I actually speak Spanish fluently.
