“The worst mistake of a woman is to go to the kitchen, because then she never gets out of there.”

People think I like to expose my body. But I don’t. It’s just because the dance moves require it.

I would sing anywhere they would invite me. That’s how I made my first pesos. I used to sing at beauty pageants, local events of every sort.

I feel comfortable in my pop shoes. They let me walk in any direction. I like to go from one extreme to the other. One day I feel that I want to do a song with reggaeton influence, I do it. The next day I feel I need to do a song with rock elements to it, I do it.

When you have a baby, when you feel his love, you feel so at peace with the world. You just want to share the good news and share how happy you feel.

All through my twenties, I spent more time worrying what I didn’t have than thinking about what I did have. I wished that I was taller, had longer legs, slimmer hips, a smaller bottom, even straighter hair.

I believe that every single one of us, celebrity or not, has a responsibility to get involved in trying to make a difference in the world.

Providing all Latin-American children with the education and early childhood development that they need is in the best interest of all, so it has to be a priority for all of us, not only the government and civil society, but also the business sector.

I love reading about history. Sometimes, I feel I was born in the wrong era. There was more creativity in the air when people were still discovering new worlds.

If the fastest growing population in this country is Latino, that means we are the future of this country. And, we have proven we have talent. Now we need the tools to succeed.

I think a fragrance is all about sensations and imagery, and can evoke visions, feelings and thoughts.

Songwriting is such an intricate part of me as an artist and as a person; I couldn’t just let someone else do it.

I was unaware of the dispute in Brooklyn. I would never knowingly wear any clothes or support any company who produced clothing with alleged wage and labor violations.

Everyone can know what is in my heart because I find it hard to conceal myself.

I think my dad is the only Arabic descendent who is an unsuccessful businessman.

What I do is I remove my makeup every night, use a little bit of Vitamin C serum, and that’s it, pretty much. Of course, I use my 3D White products!

I am a person who has many dreams. But as soon as I accomplish one, I move on to the next. That’s my fatal, absurd nature.
