00:03I think it's an honor to all be able to share this space here and that Ola can push us
00:09and put light on what we are doing.
00:11I think it's a lot for the Latin community and it's great to know that there is a lot of
00:16people who are here.
00:18I'm so excited to be here in a special event with so much Latin talent.
00:22I'm very proud of everyone.
00:24Obviously, for me, the most important thing is that people know that the size doesn't limit you, that that mentality
00:29doesn't exist.
00:30And also, that you can put your beautiful clothes and be there with your friend that is flaca, if you
00:35want, and as you want.
00:36That doesn't take away anything.
00:37I think everyone can see this platform and realize that this is the next generation and that there is space
00:42for them in that.
00:43I have a small sister, she has 9 years old.
00:46I have 17, 16, and I hate that they get into social media and see things that are not real.
00:53Instagram is not completely real.
00:56And I would like them to grow by seeing something that is a little more real.
01:00For them and all the girls who follow you, who don't think they have to be perfect.
01:04I'm Dora, in the movie Dora, and I have an audience that is very young.
01:11I have to control my content a lot.
01:15Like, there's a lot of young kids, but I feel like as long as I'm transparent and natural, there can
01:22be nothing that goes wrong.
01:23We all have our platforms, and I imagine that we inspire a lot of people because each and every one
01:29of you guys is so awesome.
01:31For me, personally, it's been super important to put photos that are not touched, that are authentic,
01:36that are transparent with my audience, and to answer them.
01:38Because there are a lot of people who are looking for love, who are looking for a place where they
01:41feel accepted.
01:43And that's what I think is the most important.
01:45It's to be yourself, to be authentic, as she said, but be careful very well what you put on, because
01:51there are people who are going to follow your steps.
01:54Well, in my case, I'm chef, so I cook, and I believe you are what you eat.
01:58So I promote organic food, which is like no filters in the food.
02:03In Hollywood industry, it's very important to represent the different types of Latinos,
02:09because we have Mexicans, Dominicans, Peruvians.
02:12And in Hollywood, they think that there are only Mexicans in the world, and that's not true.
