I never thought I would get such a perfect role in 'Modern Family.' A lot of TV shows now are looking for more Latin women.

I still haven't played a leading role in cinema or in TV, and that's something that I long for.

I think I'm going to be stereotyped forever, but I'm not scared of being stereotyped.

I understand English; I read and write English perfectly, but the accent won't go away.

I use Spanish dancing as a way to exercise. I've done that for my whole life.

I went to a school run by Catholic nuns. They were really strict.

I'm fearless.

I'm happy with what I've achieved.

I'm not athletic.

I'm obsessed with food!

I've been very lucky that I've never had cellulite. My body was always firm.

In my own life, I have no problems letting out a good scream.

My problem is desserts. I am obsessed with desserts.

Not everybody's confident their whole life.
