“We just have to understand our collective strength. Because if [the show] 'Jane the Virgin' does well, [Hollywood] is going to open the door for five new shows that are Latino-focused. We’ve already seen this start to happen. 'Jane the Virgin' got a Golden Globe, and this pilot season everybody wants a Latino lead.... The more we show them that our united front can blow something up, the more they’re going to open those doors because it’s no longer a risk. This isn’t about racism. It’s about money.” –Golden Globe winning actress (and star of The CW's "Jane The Virgin") GINA RODRÍGUEZCheck out Gina Rodríguez's interview with Glam Belleza Latina magazine where she talks of the power of Latinos uniting in the show business industry by clicking here.
