I do a lot of TV stuff, but I also turn a lot down - it's got to be an adventure.

I turn my negatives into my positives because one of my mottos is, 'Yesterday's history, tomorrow's a mystery,' meaning that you can't go back and change anything in the past.

I'm the kind of guy who really likes a challenge. It's more rewarding.

Show me a smile, and I'll show you one back.

You learn more about yourself in intimate relationships than any other endeavor. I can go do 'King and I' and sing out in front of 1,000-plus people, but trying to open up about something that's bothering me with somebody that I'm in a relationship with? That's the scariest thing.

I'm the first one who sees every romantic comedy in theaters.

Foreign audiences are used to seeing Mexico in other sorts of movies. 'Casi divas' is a step toward a more commercially successful cinema, without the violence, blood and exaggerations. The movie reflects a more human Mexico, while remaining a chick flick, although it is not a romantic comedy.

My grandmother was energetic and fearless - a talented poet and songwriter. She was also interested in chemistry and history and medicine, taking care of the people in her hacienda in Mexico, delivering babies. She could have become anything, but this was the 1930s, and she was forced into an arranged marriage.
