$ 29.95

I' am so proud of Optimum Triple Play for taking a stand against racism in Latino television. Ever since I was a little girl, Latinos with a darker completion have been absent from Latino television. Roles are minimum or very degrading. Since I understood this concept, I always knew that I would never waste my time auditioning for Latino television. From being a servant to sleeping with the slave master is the only way a dark skin Latino like myself, can get a role on Latino television. Even in 2009, Latino television has not gotten with the program and have not changed their dimension of thinking.

In Optimum Triple Play's latest commercial, one of the main dancers is a beautiful brown skin Latina. She is vibrant, charismatic, and a very talented dancer. The dancer wears her hair in braids which is a plus. I am proud of this young lady. Although, I am talking about a commercial, This is a small step towards moving forward in Latino television where we can see multiple colors and shapes of Latinos. Optimum Triple Play commercial can be seen on all Latino channels. such as 41 and 47.

¡Optimum Triple Play es candela!

Let's take the spotlight off me for a moment

Did anyone hear Ciara's New Album "Fantasy Ride" ? I didn't but I can not wait till her new album comes out. Her First two singles are club bangers Never Ever and Love Sex Magic. Both singles show her maturity as a woman and as a music artist. Her sexiness is undeniable, her dance skills are way past standard and can we say vocal coach ? With twist, turns and Bends. Ciara is giving some of our more established artist a run for their money!!! Her album drops on April 28th. If you don't believe me check out her latest video feat. Justin Timberlake.

My Calling


In Hollywood, California, casting directors often say, "There are no such things as small roles but only small actors." This quote relates greatly to me because when I was in the fifth grade, I was in the school play, The Wizard of Oz. In the play I only had one line. My one line in the play was the highlight of the performance in my eyes. That was the happiest day of my life and from that point on I knew I wanted to be become an actress.
In the play I performed the part of one of the mice. Although children's from age's eight to twelve were not allowed to audition, we played a huge part in the dance sequence of the play. Luckily, the director changed his mind and decided to cast some of the children.
On the day of the audition, I was overcome with nervousness because my classmates were watching me. Nevertheless, I continued working hard and went on with the audition. I finally said the anticipated line, "Hey where did you get all those poppies from, huh?". It's been a long time since I've said that line. I can not believe I still remember it.
When the day of the show came, I was so excited and also very chatty. The show started and as I predicted, I said the long awaited line: "Hey where did you get all those poppies from, huh?" I did a phenomenal job! Everyone congratulated me at the conclusion of the play.
When I went home that night, I could not sleep. The audience's reaction was all I could think about. The idea that I captivated the audience with my voice and my irresistible charm amazed me and sparked an interest in me.
