Gina Rodriguez: From Jane the Virgin to Miss Bala

BY: GURU JAY
Gina Rodriguez will star in the upcoming Miss Bala movie. I’m looking forward to seeing the film, and possibly doing a movie review here. Right now, I feel Miss Bala will live up to all the hype. I believe Gina Rodriguez is becoming one of the best Latina actresses in the entertainment industry. Moreover, this article takes a good look at Gina Rodriguez from Jane the Virgin to Miss Bala. Let’s start examining her talented display.

Given Gina’s experience, she will perform above and beyond on the silver screen. The Hollywood actress was one of the hottest starlets under 30. We just didn’t know it at the time. I argue her name is bigger than Lea Michele and Naya Rivera.

Born in Chicago, Illinois, Gina Rodriguez is Puerto Rican. The 34-year-old is a role model. Check out Carmen San Diego on Netflix. She voices the lead character.

This past week I binge-watched Jane the Virgin. They give you a lot in one episode. It is a treat watching Gina Rodriguez improve her acting skills. You can see why the celebrity is a bright Hollywood star by just watching her act onscreen as Jane.

Her acting abilities reminds me of Michelle Rodriguezback in the day. Plus, she is pretty like Eva Mendes. Without question, this former TV star makes Sofia Vergara and Eva Longoria proud.

Did you know that they are making a spinoff of Jane the Virgin called Jane the Novelas? Also, you should know Miss Bala is a remake. Do they make anything original nowadays? That’s another story.
Anyway, do you remember Zoe Saldana’s breathtaking performance in Colombiana? I feel Gina Rodriguez’s showing could top that because Miss Balahas a similar plot. Time will tell.

Everyone can enjoy Gina Rodiguez’s talented display. She receives high marks on my scorecard. It is a pleasure watching her entertain. Let’s see what happens. Stay tuned.

Priyanka Chopra: From Bollywood to Hollywood


What’s your favorite TV show? ABC offers excellent programming choices. Do you like sitcoms such as Modern Family or dramas such as Scandal? How about Quantico? Whatever you have a taste for is on ABC. Lately, I’ve been consuming episodes of Quantico on demand.

I can’t get enough of Priyanka Chopra. The Quantico star is someone to write home about. Isn’t she something special? This former Miss World may be the hottest babe on TV.

I hope they give Priyanka a pay raise because she’s too good to lose. Moreover, the actor is the main reason we watch Quantico, right? Let’s face it, Chopra presents a hot body of work like Sofia VergaraTV viewers are treated to one of a kind good looks.

Still, if you go beyond her charming good looks, you’ll discover she’s extremely talented too. She’s already made a name for herself in Bollywood. Right now, she’s taking her turn on Hollywood Boulevard.

Are you looking forward to watching her performance in Baywatch or what? Picture Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron both vying for her attention on the silver screen. They already publicly admitted they’re infatuation with her. Who do you think is more her type? That’s right Priyanka Chopra can have any man she likes.

Who else can’t get enough of Priyanka Chopra? The Indian beauty is easy on the eyes. Additionally, she’s devoted to developing her gifts.

Clearly, Chopra knows she’s one of the best in showbiz. Plus, Priyanka can handle the entertainment world’s pressure. Her Bollywood experience counts for something.

The Dynamic Acting of Cameron Diaz

The Dynamic Acting of Cameron Diaz


Someone is walking into the tallest building downtown and he’s creating a scene. It appears there’s a blonde woman with him. What’s that? The woman is a badass like Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu. Plus, she’s comparable to Reese Witherspoon.

Oh, it’s O.K. That someone happens to own a magazine. And that woman he’s with is none other than the one and only Cameron Diaz. Every now and then, people require imagery like this as much as their thirst for water.

SOME LIKE IT HOT

Moreover, milk does the body good. If there’s a lady who’s all that it’s Cameron Diaz. Cameron’s body of work reminds you of Sofia Vergara because like Sofia it’s hot. Although she’s not technically a comedienne, Cameron cracks you up in movies such as Bad Teacher. Maybe, the Hollywood actress could be casted in the Hot Pursuit sequel.

For what it’s worth, Cameron Diaz doesn’t look a day over 36. I guess Ben Stiller was right. There’s something about Mary foreal. Diaz even wrote a book spilling her perfect body secrets.

Also, there’s no business like showbiz. This actor shows how hard work pays off over time. According to sources, her networth is about $140 million. In other words, Cameron Diaz doesn’t have to work anymore.

How do you calculate the entertainment value of this celebrity? Where do I begin? Cameron is energetic and fantastic. Plus, she is a people person and maybe a people pleaser.

It’s always a joy seeing Cameron Diaz smile. She’s so sweet. Only Julia Roberts has a sweeter smile.

Who thinks they should do Charlie’s Angels one more time? I think Diaz would do it.

We love Cameron Diaz for the same reason we love Jennifer Aniston. She is like a Friend. Do you get it? I’ll wait for that to sink in.

Sofía Vergara’s Hot Body of Work

BY: GURU JAY

  
What would Modern Family be without Sofía
Vergara? Go to Sofía’s Twitter page right now and it reads: Modern Family! She embraces her role as a hot foreign wife/ mama and that’s what I believe makes the show great.
Her character lets her husband lead the old fashioned way. However, the other characters have different structures in their relationships. There is a gay couple. And there’s another couple where the wife takes charge. Clearly, Modern Family represents modern times.
I caught last night’s new episode of Modern Familybecause I promised you a Sofía Vergara story. How can I write about Sofía’s hot body of work and exclude her hottest work?
In this episode, the neighborhood lost their electricity due to a thunderstorm. They kept trying to regain power and failed until the end. All I really cared about was Vergara’s character. I wanted to see her latest material in order to create fresher content.

 

I feel most bloggers blog about the same stuff and that gives readers the same old tired stories. I want you to hear my voice by reading my words. Speaking of voices, I enjoy listening to Sofía talk in a Colombian accent. It’s a sexy tone, am I right?
This celebrity has my number. Remember numbers don’t lie. Millions in Latin America are proud of Sofía Vergara’s accomplishments. She is a success story.
The Hot Pursuit actress hasn’t cooled off any. She’s still hot as ever. Plus, her hotness was on full display during last night’s episode.

Last summer I published a piece called Sofía Vergara, Eva Longoria, and Brand/ Star PowerI explain how Vergara is more of a brand and Longoria is more of a star. I stand by my words but I now realize Vergara has reached superstar status.
Sometimes I feel like Shakespeare and must compare summer days to beautiful women.
Sofía Vergara should receive a life time achievement award. She has achieved success as a model, talk show host, comedienne, and actress. The brand and star came a long way from Colombia to Hollywood. What would Modern Family be without Sofía Vergara? Perhaps a better question is- what is TV and showbiz without Sofía Vergara?

Sofía Vergara, Eva Longoria, and Brand/ Star Power

BY: GURU JAY
  
Warning
How dirty is Hollywood’s politics? How shady is Hollywood’s business? Are you sure you want to work in this entertainment industry?

Sofía Vergara is a bigger brand but Eva Longoria is a brighter star. There is a clear distinction between brand and star power. The brand will last long after the star has burnt out.
Did you know Vergara gets paid to drink Diet Pepsi? Also, Sofía stars in Rooms to Go commercials. Plus, she is a Cover Girl.

Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Pressley, and Bob Marley died but their image and likeness lives on through merchandising. I respect Sofía Vergara’s brand and marketing. Sources say Vergara has a net worth of $85 million and counting. In comparison, estimates put Eva Longoria’s value at $35 million.
I wonder sometimes whether Longoria realizes her star power, because she’s seriously underutilizing her famous name. Nonetheless, I applaud the celebrity’s charitable activities. What is more, I believe her philanthropy is making a difference.
By no means is Eva the perfect role model. However, she gladly confronts challenging issues. Plus, Eva seems humble.

I like Sofía but she appears overconfident. Nobody is above the law of Father Time. At some point beauty fades fast. I’m not saying Vergara can’t act, but Longoria is better.
Doesn’t Sofía deserve recognition for Modern Family? The Colombian-American plays her part terrifically. Latinos should embrace Vergara with open arms. It’s amazing the highest paid TV star is Latina.
I consider Longoria and Vergara the TV version of Cameron Diaz and Jessica Alba. Like Diaz and Alba, they are both dazzling and in high demand. So, why aren’t Eva and Sofía in more movies?

I’ve heard Hot Pursuit starring Reese Witherspoon and Sofía Vergara is giggle-filled. Furthermore, Frontera is some of Eva Longoria’s best work. Do you see why Sofía and Eva are the best Latina actresses?

actresses best actors Celebrities Entertainment Girls Hollywood Kaley Cuoco Kerry Washington Lena Dunham New Girl Scandal sitcoms Sofia Vergara The Big Bang Theory TV Zooey Deschanel

5-4-3-2-1: Top TV Actresses Countdown

BY: GURU JAY
5. Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting


Hot Hollywood starlet Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting starts the countdown. The ‘Wedding Ringer’ actress excels at comedy. Fortunately, she smartly decided to branch off into movies.

In accounting, they say diversify income streams. Kaley has done exactly that. Still, her plentiful talents obviously belong on television.
Cuoco could dominate TV like Jennifer Aniston. But, Sheldon Cooper overshadows the bright actress. Maybe, studio executives should create a spinoff starring Cuoco-Sweeting.

4. Lena Dunham

 

‘Girls’ creator Lena Dunham tries everything. The professional writer, actress, producer and director is diversified. The opinionated woman and unwavering feminist spreads her message.
3. Zooey Deschanel

 

‘New Girl’ lead actress Zooey Deschanel tickles many funny bones. Like Kaley, Zooey’s television work demands respect. Also, Deschanel commands attention from her 6 million plus Twitter followers.
2. Kerry Washington


Kerry Washington portrays powerful campaign consultant Olivia Pope on the sensational TV drama ‘Scandal.’ Political zealots understand why Washington’s second on the countdown.
1. Sofia Vergara


‘Modern Family’ matriarch Sofia Vergara receives a hefty salary. However, the Colombian celebrity is worth every penny. Sofia sacrificed several years; and now Vergara is the top TV actress. I am Guru Jay launching off into orbit in 5-4-3-2-1!

19 Best Black and Latina Actresses

BY: GURU JAY

The best Black and Latina actresses have one thing in common: talent. These ladies are the crème de la crème. They all give exemplary performances every time.
I present to you the best. These are my favorite selections. At the end, tell us who’s on your list.
Best Black and Latina Actresses
Paula Patton’s portfolio is a solid body of work. Déjà vu is my favorite. Her big break came withMission: Impossible IV- Ghost Protocol. Have you seen it?
I predict Paula will win an Oscar. Does she remind you of the girl next door?  She is the lead actress in the long awaited Warcraft movie, based on the addictive video game.

Gina Torres is also a marketable fantasy actress. Who could forget about her role in Matrix and her stint on the TV show Firefly? Gina looks great!
I would let her teach me how to act any day. I’d bet her acting class wouldn’t have an empty seat. You can tell that this Cuban New Yorker loves science fiction.

Zoe Saldana is the best science fiction actress. I like her in the Star Trek franchise as well as Avatar. Sources say her performance in Guardians of the Galaxy is top notch.
Rihanna reminds me of Zoe Saldana. They both have the ‘look.’ Watch Colombiana when you get the chance.

Puerto Ricans are proud of Jennifer Lopez. She is a good representative of all Latinas. JLo has a big heart.
Check out her movie Jack starring Robin Williams. I like JLo because of her versatility. Give her a part and watch her go to work. She is building a legendary career.

Eva Mendes is underperforming. This Eva has not exceeded her limit. Give her a shot.

Who’s a better Latina actress than Eva Longoria? This Eva transcends TV. Two words: Desperate Housewives…
Longoria made Desperate Housewives a thriving success. She was the primary reason for my remote interest in the drama. Vanessa Williams helped too.

Modern Familystar Sofia Vergara gives me a similar rationale. Ed O’Neil also known as Al Bundy brings back many childhood memories. But, I watch Modern Family because of Sofia Vergara.
I’m sitting on my sofa and watching Sofia.

Roselyn Sanchez doesn’t have as big a name. Still, the Devious Maids actress is very skillful. I liked her in Miss Congeniality. She has sex appeal like Sandra Bullock.
I respect Roselyn due to her humility. She seems like a good spirited sister. She doesn’t cause trouble.

Nia Long flies under the radar. You must admire the way she conducts herself too. The Black actress earns her keep. I only have nice things to say about Nia.
She is similar in style to Halle Berry.
Let me clarify that there is only 1 Halle Berry. And, she is a legend. Halle came a long way from Cleveland.
She is the face of Revlon. It’s nice to see her diversifying income streams. She’s everywhere: in the movies, commercials and now on TV. Comment and tweet if you want to keep Extant on the air!

Do you like Sanaa Lathan? Have you seen Love and Basketball? If you’re making a Romance, audition Sanaa!

Another good Sanaa movie is Brown Sugar. She stars alongside Taye Diggs. By the way, Magic Johnson helped finance this film. Speaking of finances, Sanaa stays at the bank. She deposits pay stubs as her hobby.

When Taraji P. Henson comes to mind, you think The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Also, Taraji posed semi-nude for PETA. Even if you don’t support the cause, you admire passionate people.
Taking bold political stances is a big risk in Hollywood.

Rosario Dawson is the lead actress in Fire With FireI watched Fire With Fire on demand. And, this is an absolute must-see movie. It’s rated R so in the words of Dave Chappelle: “you’d better not bring your kids.”
As always, Rosario shines in the film. Oh yeah, Bruce Willis is not bad either. But, Dawson demonstrates her high demand. She shows why her stock price is at 100 points.
Rosario is a great supporting actor. I believe she is the best supporting actress out there. And, her best days are ahead. She is still developing her talent as a lead.

Kerry Washington is best known for her work on ABC’s Scandal. But before her prime time TV domination, she was a successful movie actress. This girl is limitless like Scarlett Johansson in the number 1 movie Lucy.
I have seen Kerry mature over the years. I still remember her first film Our Song. From then to now, you see a tremendous progression.
Kerry easily makes my top five. She embodies the essence of performing arts.

Of course, the thespian Cameron Diaz is number 10. In fact, her last name means ‘ten’ in Spanish. The blonde Latina is the best in her niche.
As far as romantic comedies, Cameron is second to none. Boy can Cameron dance. Who saw Sex Tape?

Jessica Alba owns the night as much as Eva Mendes. Alba is a younger Cameron Diaz. In her own right, Jessica has established herself as a household name.
Jessica gives a good performance in Good Luck Chuck. Alba should stick to romantic-comedies. To paraphrase a plumber: “If it ain’t broke, I’m not fixing it.”

Gabrielle Union has all of Hollywood talking. First of all, she looks like a model. And, she struts her stuff with the best of them. I’m sure she can give Candice Swanepoel some pointers.
Why is Gabrielle Union undervalued? I want to see her in more movies. The Omaha sweetie is ‘like a diamond treated like glass.’

Salma Hayek inspires every Latina. She is an older actress who paid her dues. She’s put skin in the game. The lady loves cinema.


Finally, keep an eye on Michelle Rodriguez. She’s destined for superstardom. I rank Rodriguez as the #1 Latina action actress.

You decide. Who are the best Black and Latina actresses?
