“He called me and he asked me if I wanted to be a part of that. And, of course, I did not hesitate,” she said. ”I said, ‘Of course, count on me. ‘And, he mentioned that Jennifer was also involved, and I feel that it’s going to be great because she also represents a really important part of the Latino community who lives in the US, and who has been born and raised in the US ”
