Who I am at the core and what I think represents me is really reflected in my family.
I try to run every time I'm in a new city or country - you just put your shoes on and go. It's very therapeutic, and it also works for me when I want to lose weight.
I have a personal trainer who comes over at least four times a week and kicks my butt. I get so sore that I can't even walk.
That's typical Gabrielle, ... Marc has a very clever plan for this pregnancy. It's going to turn her world upside down
I believe, as they say, that you can't be what you don't see, and since I saw a lot of smart women in my life, education being at the center, I just mimicked that behavior.
People associate farmworkers with illegal immigrants, and that's really not the case.
Marriage is a commitment, so you always have to work at it.
I've been a longtime advocate of farmworker rights.
If you eat food or produce, you should take into account where that food comes from.
Unfortunately, we live our life in public, so any weight gain or pimple is a national story. I don't get this obsession with weight. It's not only Hollywood; it's our society.
My grandma has never been impressed with the TV show [Desperate Housewives]. She was so angry because I was on television kissing a boy naked; she's very traditional. She said: "If I ever see you kissing that boy again...".
I think what I love most about Oprah's brand that I would love to do with the Eva Longoria brand is she has purpose with her brand. Everything she does means something.
I think I've ignored it so much so that when the paparazzi are following me I really don't see them. You don't see them anymore.
In my family, there was one cardinal priority - education. College was not an option; it was mandatory. So even though we didn’t have a lot of money, we made it work. I signed up for financial aid, Pell Grants, work study, anything I could.
I was born in platform heels. I actually always fall down when I'm wearing flip-flops.
I grew up on a ranch with my father, so he educated us really early on about guns. We used to go target shooting all the time.
I do want to have a family at some point. I also want to adopt. I don't feel pressure to have kids because I know that there are so many out there.
Immigration is not the top issue for Latinos. Latinos are like every other American - economy, jobs, healthcare, education.
Politics need to stop treating women as a special-interest group.
I've always thought of myself as a role model even before being a 'celebrity.' I've always been doing charity work and volunteering in the community since I was 8, so when you do that, I think you just assume that role when you put yourself out there.
I've always eaten egg whites because when I was little, I didn't like the color yellow, so my mom would trick me into eating eggs by taking out the yolk.
I wish I could wear 10 dresses to my wedding. It's so sad that you put it in storage and then never see it again. I am going to sleep in mine after I wear it.
My worst habit in the kitchen is not allowing anybody to help me. I like to cook by myself.
But America was built by optimists. Optimists like my friend Amanda, who recently started a small business. When she went to buy her website address-her first and last name-she found that someone already owned it, but wasn't using it. So my friend emailed the owner of the site to ask if she could buy it. The owner wrote back.
There's a big difference between charity and between activism and philanthropy. They're very different things and I think, you know, everybody should find a passion or a cause that they can really get behind, but it has to be organic.
