Jennifer Lopez has talked candidly about how she broke “molds” in her acting career and reflected on her early days in Hollywood.
Speaking on Variety’s Award Circuits podcast, the 55-year-old singer disclosed that she had heard “someone say that positive change is slow.”
Lopez says it is, but the important thing is that we’re heading in the correct path.
“There weren’t many roles for Latinas when I started,” the actress remarked.
I was trying out for roles with stereotypes and accents. “Why can’t I just play a romantic lead?” I kept asking myself. How come I can’t be the girl who lives next door? “I broke those molds because of that belief—that conviction that I belonged,” the Unstoppable actress remarked.
