'I had an identity crisis,' the actress recalled.

"I went through a lot of trouble with my body, with my curves, with my look. It was really tough," she told the outlet."I just think it's an overly sexualized idea of a Latin woman. It's so disappointing and it's so pathetic."

"I remember being so many projects, 'She's too pretty for the role. She's too hot for the role,'" she said."Then I'd just be like, 'What is Margot Robbie?' She's the hottest, most beautiful woman I've ever seen in my life!""I was like, 'Do I shave my head? Do I make myself less attractive? Do I make myself more attractive? Do I not dress super hot or do I dress super hot or do I cover myself all the time?'" she recalled.

"It was dismissive of my entire career. It was dismissive of who I was. It was dismissive of my culture. It was dismissive of my experience, my work, my work ethic," she said of American media thinking she was a new actress when she started getting roles in the U.S., despite years of work in Mexico."Because you are uneducated and uninformed about other countries, that's on you and that's fine, but you cannot dismiss people's careers.
