Camila Mendes's quotes
- Everyone's bodies are different, and we all have different shapes, but it has nothing to do with who you are.
- It took living alone for me to really get to know myself.
- For me, being an 'American Latina' means identifying with and being influenced by both my American upbringing and my Latin heritage, and I have so much appreciation for how those two cultures have created who I am.
- Invest in a trainer. You see the progress so quickly, and you push yourself in new ways.
- It's fine to eat dessert when I want to eat dessert because that will give me the peace of mind I need. I'll know that if I ate chocolate cake, maybe I won't the next day.
- I've always struggled with having frizzy hair, and it doesn't really cooperate the way I want it to.
- I think from going to fittings once a week and having to look in the mirror for two hours, I feel like I built a intuition for what's gonna work and what isn't, and I noticed how important tailoring is, especially being a more petite body type.
- I use my hair as a tool for portraying characters. When I'm auditioning for a role, when I'm putting myself on tape for something, I always consider what the hairstyle is going to be because it changes the way people perceive me.
- A good listener goes a long way.
- If I could go back to before I started 'Riverdale,' I would tell myself to speak up when I felt like something wasn't right - to use my voice and know that it's worth hearing.
- I rewatched 'The O.C.,' like, seven times!
- I spent a lot of my adolescence in Miami, where it was super humid, and my hair would get super frizzy, and my waves weren't really consistent or pretty.
- Because I get my hair styled in so many different ways, when I get the chance to be natural and just me as a person and not an actress, I like to have a stable, consistent look that reminds me that I'm me.
- I was really obsessed with dieting.
- I know what it's like to be the new girl.
- It's easy to think you have to fit some kind of mold.
- If you're going to become a better person, do it in high school.
- My hair has always been a definitive part of my personal style, so I love being part of a campaign that celebrates hair as a form of expression.
- I often hear things like, 'You don't look Latina enough,' and that mentality is so backwards. The fact is, I am Latina, so how are you going to tell me that I don't look Latina?
- My perfect day would be spent poolside with some friends.
- It's rare that you see Latin families being portrayed as intelligent, sophisticated, and powerful entities.
- When I go to Brazil, I feel like an American, and in the U.S., I always notice the traits that make me Brazilian.
- Miami can be super-kitschy at times, and it's fun to embrace that.
- I have so much appreciation for how those two cultures [Brazilian and American] have created who I am. I'm a full-blooded Brazilian, with an entire extended family of Brazilians, but I was born and raised in the U.S.
- People know what I look like. I take photos on my own, and I don't edit them, so people know.
- I spent a lot of my childhood moving around, so I was constantly adjusting to different environments and finding a new identity.
- Vancouver is more laid-back, pretty much what you would expect from a West Coast city. Miami is definitely livelier - the nightlife, the people, everything. It's basically a little slice of Latin America.
- I feel like I know I have enough friends who support me through those times. Like, I'll call a friend and be like, 'I really don't feel good about what I ate today,' and she'll be like, 'Dude, it's fine.'
- I've learned to trust myself that I'm going to make healthy choices because I care about my health.
- I grew up watching 'Gossip Girl' and 'The O.C.,' and I looked up to Blair Waldorf and Summer Roberts.
- In high school, I was friends with everybody. I had my core group of friends, but I could flow through different social groups pretty easily.
- I'm American; I was born and raised in America, and I don't want to fake who I am to fit a stereotype.
- I'm a Brazilian - full blood, parents born and raised, and I lived there for a little bit - but I didn't grow up there.
- Bullies have a soft spot, and mean girls have a reason to be that way. It's a matter of understanding why a person is the way they are.
- I like communicating and being open and committing. That, for me, has always been something that I like to do.
- I've always looked up to Nicole Kidman. I think she's an elegant and talented actress. You can tell how much she commits to her characters, and I admire that.
- I love bossa nova. It's the most beautiful genre of music in the world.
- If I were to be a role model, it would just come out of going the college route, getting training, and trusting that's the most secure path you can take - a path where a degree is involved. You know you went to college, and you have that under your belt.
- I'm not more Brazilian than I am American or vice-versa - I'm very much a combination of all of those things.
- Rachel Bilson, Nicole Richie, Vanessa Hudgens... so many of my idols growing up were Bongo girls.
- My sister would write plays, and I would act in them and perform them for my parents. They were on the comedy side, very much inspired by 'The Amanda Show.'
- At an early age, somehow we're programmed to view other females as threats.
- In any job you do, you're going to have off days.
- In high school, I always had boyfriends - it wasn't healthy! I was so used to having someone around that when I was finally on my own, it felt scary.
