Quotes

  • Sao Paulo is a crowded town, it has so many buildings and traffic and so many people in one small place. I miss the energy of being there.
  • [when asked if she has already made up an Oscar acceptance speech] Just as a Brazilian individual who was a Xuxa fan as a kid, I'd salute my mom, dad and 'you' [as children would do on stage when interacting with Xuxa].
  • I think people who have the power of communication, who have the power of publicity, do have an influence, and if I ever get that opportunity, I will take it. Everything is in our hands -- each of us can make a difference and fight. That's something I believe in: taking care of being, always being giving, always trying to be helpful and generous.
  • [on rumors about her dating Diego Luna] Everybody says that, but it's not true. He's a good friend because he helped me as an actor. He's a good, good friend.
