What I loved most about 'Rhythm Nation' were the uniforms and the perfect group choreography.
The music video, Lil Nas X, he asked me to be in the 'Panini' music video. It was crazy. I was just listening to the song and I was like, okay, this is going to be my first music video but it was really fun.
I was an extra in a Tia Carrere music video.
If you look at the 'Casi Nada' video, I'm, like, a good girl.
I was in the video for Cyndi Lauper's 'Sally's Pigeons' when I first started acting.
I think the key to directing a great music video is in making sure the song is great, and if it is, then it becomes really fun.
I didn't make music videos in order to make a movie. Music videos were the goal for me, so it was never a step to something else. I approached it seriously.
Acting in a music video is basically about lip syncing songs and giving expressions that represent what the song is about. While acting for the silver screen, you have to deliver dialogues, remember them, and you have to be in a certain frame of mind.
I guess you could say the beginning of my career as an actress was when I started performing in music videos.
I'd do entire music videos in my bedroom, where I used to stand in front of my television memorizing the moves to Michael Jackson's 'Beat It.'
I believe that music videos give us an opportunity as actors to play a different character.
