I can't eat beans - all beans. I think because I'm half Cuban. So growing up, we were always eating black beans and rice, and I think I just said, 'Enough with it,' and I can't even stand to taste it anymore.

When I was growing up, I was eating fast food every day. I'd drink soda non-stop, candy, just everything. It was horrible. My go-to was McDonald's, for sure.

My dad was my swim coach growing up, and I tried to get kicked out of practice every day. I was a little devil kid.

I was a better basketball player growing up in high school than I was a swimmer. Basketball to this day is my favorite sport.

I moved to Hawaii when I was fourteen. And I was there for a year and then I was just sort of on and off after that, just because I had friends and family there.

We're a close family, and we've always believed in working hard to achieve our dreams.

I was 28 when my father died, and I was an only child.

I'm from a working-class family. We didn't have a lot, but we had the arts. You're talking to a guy who is making a living at doing what he loves doing - acting, singing and dancing. So any career ups and downs were not that significant to me; the only things that really powerfully impinged on me were my losses, and there were many in my life.
