As An Entertainer, My Job Is To

Music Is Almost Mystical To Me. It Really Has An Incredibly Powerful Force.

My Grandmother Would Shanghai Pilots At The Havana Airport So They'd Bring Me Cartons Of Mango Baby Food - The Only Kind I'd Eat. I Learned To Eat Peach Later. And In Every Carton, She'd Slip A Cuban Record.

I Hold 'mi Tierra,' My First Spanish-language Album, Very Close To Me Because That Was All Done In My Native Tongue And Won Me My First Grammy.

Later In Life, The Memories I Have Of My Mother Are Of Constant Work Balanced With Caring For My Ailing Father.

I Tell Him [husband Emilio] You Are Lucky I Am Not A Jealous Woman, Because Look At The Women He's Worked With: Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Thalia, Madonna. These Very Sexy Women. I Trust Him.
