This week on Better Late, I dive into the beautiful, awkward, hilarious mess of living (and loving) in translation. I share how American pop culture helped me learn English—thanks, America's Next Top Model, Lizzie McGuire and Gilmore Girls—and how speaking a second language has shaped everything from my dating life to my identity as an actress in LA.We talk about what it’s like to start over in a new country, the shame I had to shake off when I began working in restaurants, and the grit it takes to chase a dream while balancing survival jobs, auditions, and side gigs—like being someone’s Spanish tutor over brunch. From a missed opportunity on Insecure to unforgettable moments on the sets of Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi and Amsterdam, I’m reflecting on the sacrifices and small wins that make this journey worth it.Plus: the absurdity of American dating language (why are people so weird about calling it “dating”?), the many shades of “I love you” in Spanish, and why Andrew Garfield might just be the love of my life.
