Gina Rodriguez interview

0 Comments

Popsugar interviews Rodriguez about her role as Jane in the TV series Jane The Vergin. Rodriguez talks about her character’s maturity and if she was similarly grounded and put together in real life.

Girl, you know I did. No, there’s no way I had my stuff together. I literally stop and I’m like, what would Jane do? Which is completely terrible, but I do, because of her patience and her understanding. I’m Puerto Rican, and we don’t own that! But it is really awesome to play such a grounded character. I’m a big fan of her.

Modern Luxury’s Miami cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

Rodriguez appears on the cover of the February 2015 issue of Modern Luxury’s Miami magazine. She talks about her parents supporting her career, roles she wants, and Jane The Virgin.

The reason the role means so much to me is because Jane is breaking norms in our culture and bringing up conversations … the show doesn’t comment on life. It does not judge life. It’s just … let’s talk about virginity; let’s talk about interracial couples; let’s talk about sex; let’s talk about this Latino story that will realize is no different than yours.
