00:06
What is up? Welcome back to Me through Daily.
00:08
I'm Jenny and I'm Alejandro.
00:10
And I don't know about you,
00:11
brother, but January just won't end.
00:13
Like it feels like we're on the 6th week,
00:15
you know, and I think instead of enerro it should be
00:19
called Eterno because that's what it feels like,
00:22
you know. That's smart.
00:25
we gotta get over this month.
00:27
I thought we're gonna at least like get into it sometime during
00:30
the whole week work week goes normal and then.
00:34
I don't know. I'm over this.
00:35
Well, let's just jump into the news and try and get
00:37
this over with. Let's do it.
00:39
Tweets, memes and a fly full of captive migrants.
00:41
This is what led to a tariff war between the US and
00:44
Colombia. Brother, this feels like a Black Mirror episode.
00:48
Crazy ass year. Yeah,
00:50
but look, it's all started when military planes with deportees attempted
00:53
to land in Colombia and the Colombian government denied the flights and
00:57
it was a military flight,
00:58
right? Then Colombian President Petro responded with a tweet.
01:02
Saying Trump, I don't really like traveling to the US much
01:07
yada yada yada, and essentially at the end he says,
01:10
and I'll shake hands with white enslavers.
01:12
Oh, he came for him.
01:16
he fired back. He went on true social,
01:18
social,, he's still banned from Twitter or X or
01:21
whatever. Nah, I mean,
01:22
he's cool with Elon,
01:23
no, like some compasso,
01:25
maybe just because true social,
01:26
like no one's mess with my thing.
01:27
Like this is my platform.
01:28
These are my people,
01:31
so Trump says he will be threatening tariffs of 25% on goods
01:34
coming into the US from Colombia if Colombia did not comply within
01:38
a week. The US president threatened to up the tariffs to
01:41
50%. Jesus. That's crazy.
01:45
You know Valentine's Day is just around the corner.
01:48
the flowers come from,
01:51
they come from Colombia,
01:52
like a good percentage of the flowers here come from Colombia.
01:56
I didn't know. So that it's gonna be a crisis.
01:59
But he also warned of further actions including travel bans and visa
02:02
sanctions targeting Colombian government members,
02:04
their families, and supporters.
02:07
Then right after Trump posted the AI mean mentioning faiFO or fafo
02:13
which means fuck around and find out.
02:15
But my dude fucking around and finding out.
02:17
He's the one that's fucking around and finding out.
02:21
Yeah, like it's like.
02:27
oh yeah, like it's like it's a pissing match,
02:30
but these are our leaders.
02:32
Like they're like high schoolers be on the internet,
02:36
you know, little high school drama for sure.
02:39
Yeah, but, so Petro fired back as well,
02:42
and he said, I'm informed that you impose a 50% tariff
02:45
on the fruits of our human labor turn to the United States
02:48
and I'll do the same.
02:49
See, yeah, they're going back and forth.
02:54
But finally, Colombia announced it was sending its own military planes
02:57
to pick up the migrants that were supposed to have arrived the
02:59
day before, which seemed to halt the tariffs,
03:02
and Trump feels like he won,
03:03
right? But while all those petty tweets and tariffs working against
03:07
other countries. I don't know,
03:10
dude. I feel like Trump's with everybody.
03:14
you bring up a good point because Hoys I have no allies
03:16
left. No one wants to be his homie.
03:19
Like, he's cool with Buqueda right now,
03:23
right? So I think so.
03:24
So it's like I'm sure that down the road they're gonna machoca
03:28
or something and then I don't know.
03:30
I don't know, do it,
03:31
but I mean I guess we'll see what happens.
03:34
Are you wondering what the cute winter boots trend on TikTok is
03:38
about? You're not alone.
03:40
It's been blowing up lately.
03:42
Well. It's because with the winter coming around,
03:47
everyone needs to stock up on a new pair.
03:50
You know what that makes sense.
03:52
I feel like especially with how crazy this weather's been.
03:55
I know it's like I don't wanna be too late.
04:03
Sister, but I'm wondering,
04:05
can cool guys wear cute winter boots as well?
04:15
Travis Kelsey wore some cool ones to the Super Bowl with Taylor
04:21
Swift. And Ariana Grande.
04:27
Even approved of them.
04:31
I'm a wicked stand and if Ariana Grande likes guys that wear
04:35
these boots, then I'm cool with it.
04:38
Well, now I know why the trend is so popular.
04:44
I'm gonna get some boots.
04:47
Sister, I'm sure you've heard the controversy all around the Perez
04:51
I sure have. Everyone had something to say about it.
04:55
the accents, the dancing,
04:56
authenticity, yeah, it's still racked up,
04:59
you know, hella nominations like I don't know how,
05:04
look, it's funny because a group of Mexicans responded to Emilia
05:07
Perez by creating a short film titled Johanacrebleu.
05:11
Yeah, so it's a French film.
05:15
I love our people la.
05:20
Well, look, it's a French inspired film made entirely with
05:23
a Mexican crew, just like how Emili Perez is made by
05:27
a French crew. Interesting.
05:29
Damn, Emilia Perez is getting the scary movie treatment.
05:34
yeah, it's like gonna be the same thing,
05:36
but wait, something's different.
05:39
So the short film takes jabs at French cliches,
05:41
right? The cast is rocking berets,
05:44
mustaches and mime costumes.
05:46
I, I better see a bunch of stripes,
05:48
striped shirts in there.
05:55
But we're not helping.
05:55
I'm sorry. We shouldn't cast it for it.
05:57
It was made by a Mexican trans woman,
05:59
Camila Arora, through crowdfunding,
06:01
right? And the plot of the story is a trans woman
06:04
heir to a baguette empire who falls in love with Atugo rataule
06:10
heir to a croissant empire.
06:12
That is hilarious, brother.
06:15
Wow, they went straight for the stereotypes,
06:18
baguettes and croissants. We.
06:21
I don't know, but do you think the French will answer
06:23
back to the short film?
06:25
Or like instead of diss songs,
06:28
Yo, yeah, drop this right now,
06:32
well, well, the Drake and Kendrick drama like this song
06:35
like this is like a feature film.
06:37
It's a whole another level,
06:39
man, bro, what do you guys think?
06:40
Will you check it out?
06:41
I mean, either way I'm down and you know what,
06:44
give him a shout out.
06:44
Shout out to the filmmakers of Johan.
06:51
Welcome to a new segment we have called Pendejo of the Week
06:58
These days there is no shortage of pendejavas happening around us
07:02
Yup. So let's get to our inaugural pendejo.
07:05
So this is coming from the Selena story,
07:08
and no, she is not the pendeja we're talking about.
07:12
Oh wait, I'm calling her pendeja.
07:13
Sounds like I'm calling.
07:14
That's why I'm like,
07:16
That's why I said leave her alone.
07:18
So this is coming from the Selena Gomez story,
07:20
and no, it's not her.
07:22
So this all started when Selena Gomez posted and quickly deleted a
07:26
video of herself reacting to the ice rings.
07:30
I just want to say that I'm so sorry.
07:36
Only people are getting attacked,
07:39
the children. I feel like,
07:42
like there were just a lot of haters.
07:44
These people are all haters,
07:45
bro, like she's genuinely,
07:47
I guess she was crying her eyes out,
07:48
pouring her heart out to these people,
07:50
I don't know what to do,
07:51
like there's so much shit going on for my people,
07:54
right? Like she's comes from an immigrant background,
07:57
right? She's Mexican and born and raised in Texas,
07:59
and yeah, she feels helpless,
08:02
but people just always just.
08:04
I don't know. And didn't she produce like a documentary
08:08
focusing on undocumented immigrants called what is it called?
08:13
It was called Living Undocumented in yeah in 2019.
08:18
she's voiced it before,
08:19
you know, this isn't her first rodeo with everything.
08:21
Thing going on right and honestly I feel like er in whatever
08:27
way people can. She's literally the most followed person on Instagram
08:32
She has a big voice to amplify her definitely yeah it's
08:35
like again, even if she's not gonna change.
08:39
Be the president, but her voice or,
08:42
or leading by example,
08:43
right, is definitely gonna have a big impact for sure.
08:45
Andrea, I'm sure like she has Calves family members who are
08:49
undocumented or she has fans that are undocumented ille,
08:54
you know what I mean so I honestly,
08:56
I feel like it wasn't an act because some people are
08:59
like, oh, can we get.
09:00
We're not actress and it's like,
09:02
no, I don't think it was an act.
09:04
I honestly feel like it was genuine.
09:05
Yeah, dude, but wait,
09:06
what about the pendejo like who?
09:08
Oh yeah, getting back to that.
09:09
So did you see the US Senate candidate guy,
09:17
Oh, like he did a retweet,
09:19
right? He said deport Selena Gomez.
09:22
Well, like, But luckily,
09:25
so you saw it and she clapped back,
09:28
Mr. Parker, thanks for the laugh and the threat.
09:31
Like. To the kindness,
09:33
bro, cause what the It's funny because I saw,
09:36
you know, the community notes referring to Sam Parker as a
09:40
Senate candidate is misleading.
09:42
Parker ran for the US Senate in Utah in 2018.
09:47
However, he received zero votes.
09:52
oh, I got the receipts for your ass.
10:02
dude, not even his own family.
10:02
His own vote for him in 2018,
10:02
bro, he's been irrelevant.
10:04
I'm sorry. It's Margado.
10:06
He's salty like he needs some action,
10:08
bro. Like, let me get my name out there.
10:09
Was it good bad press is good press I guess apparently I
10:12
mean, so that is why Sam Parker,
10:17
you are our pendejo of the week.
10:28
fam. Today we're talking beauty secrets,
10:31
healthy skin, and the changes that happen as we age.
10:34
We're chatting with my queen,
10:36
renowned makeup artist Priscilla Ono because today we're asking for an Amika
10:44
everyone. I'm so excited to be here.
10:46
Thank you so much for having me.
10:47
Thank you so much for joining us.
10:50
so makeup for me has pretty much been present in my life
10:55
for a while. I was pretty young when I started dabbling
10:58
I was a theater kid,
11:00
so it just was part of the theater kid lifestyle.
11:04
I have to ask for you,
11:06
while growing up, did you always think of makeup as a
11:09
way to express yourself and eventually make it your your career and
11:13
work? Absolutely. You know,
11:14
makeup has always been an escapism for me.
11:17
It's always been something artistic,
11:19
something that I grew up watching,
11:21
you know, my tia is my mom.
11:24
that's my grandma, my ama,
11:27
they love makeup. As a child,
11:29
I remember stealing my Ama's makeup bag and locking myself in her
11:33
bathroom, doing a full face of makeup,
11:36
washing it off, and then coming out like nothing happened.
11:38
I just always loved it.
11:41
It's always been in my life.
11:42
I grew up watching it.
11:44
I was raised actually by my grandmother,
11:46
and she's first generation from Mexico and it was really.
11:50
hard for her to let me do something artistic with my career
11:54
I actually didn't have a choice.
11:57
She made a choice for me.
11:58
She actually was like,
11:59
You're going to be in the medical field.
12:01
That's what you're going to do,
12:02
you know? And so when I decided to be a makeup
12:04
artist, it actually was a little hard for her,
12:07
but it was like my mission to show her like,
12:08
No, I can be successful even as an artist.
12:11
But,, I do have to say she was always
12:13
my muse and I always tell her that.
12:14
So I'm like, even though you don't want me to do
12:16
it at first, now she's super proud of me.
12:19
but I do tell her you're my muse.
12:21
You're the reason why I'm doing this.
12:22
I always looked up to you and how beautiful you had your
12:25
makeup and it was always something that inspired me.
12:27
So yeah, it's been in my life since a child.
12:31
I love that your abuelita has,
12:33
although it didn't start,
12:35
you know, fully supportive,
12:37
she's been crucial and important to kind of this journey of yours
12:41
Priscilla, you've worked with a lot of brands.
12:44
How has working with them changed your view on beauty and inclusivity
12:48
for everyone? Oh my God,
12:50
working with all these brands,
12:52
especially right now in the present moment that we're in,
12:54
where a lot of brands are so much more aware of being
12:58
inclusive when it comes to everything from your background,
13:02
where you come from,
13:07
it's something that actually is very rewarding for me to
13:11
work with brands that are aware of things like that.
13:14
I love my partnership that I have with Ponds currently.
13:17
I feel like they are very inclusive when it comes to making
13:20
sure that everyone is seen and heard,
13:22
especially with your skin needs.
13:24
And it's so special to me.
13:25
I love working. With brands that I actually have a connection
13:28
with, and I actually won't work with a brand unless I
13:31
have some type of connection.
13:32
It has to be something.
13:33
So, how has your Mexican background influenced your style of makeup
13:38
just growing up like watching my Tias with the darker lip liners
13:42
and the the the thin brows and I,
13:45
I think I, I pretty much rely on all of that
13:49
influence in the makeup that I do today,
13:52
especially right now, there's such a big trend with like darker
13:55
lip liner and like a lighter lip,
13:58
like a 90s nude lip,
13:59
and I feel like I am a pro at it now because
14:02
I've been doing it for so many years since I was a
14:05
having like these, you know,
14:06
my Mexican background growing up in Los Angeles with,
14:10
you know, my family and even when I went to.
14:12
School, like, I grew up with all brown and black
14:15
people, so I definitely know what it's like like for like
14:19
these trendy like now darker lip liner thin brows,
14:23
like that was like the style and it still is today and
14:26
I love that. I love that everything kind of comes around
14:29
full circle. You're like,
14:31
I've been doing that.
14:35
Yeah, exactly. And how do you think the beauty industry
14:38
in general helps of color feel more confident and beautiful.
14:43
By giving them their options,
14:45
by giving them their shades,
14:47
their tones, I think that the beauty industry right now is
14:51
very open ears and aware that now we have to make sure
14:54
that we're paying attention to what is needed because that's at the
15:00
end of the day is going to give them more sales.
15:01
So that's a win-win for everybody.
15:03
So comment on those posts on the on the makeup brands and
15:06
the skin. Care brands,
15:08
like, leave those comments.
15:09
They're they're listening, they're watching.
15:11
They're reading and they have a team just designated to see like
15:16
OK, what are they asking for?
15:18
We need to come out with that,
15:19
you know. I have to ask lastly,
15:22
who is a fierce woman who has mentored or inspired you in
15:26
your life? I have so many,
15:28
but I have to say it's Maya Mayabuela.
15:31
She definitely gave me my first.
15:35
Boost of confidence when it came to being a Latina.
15:40
you're a woman, you're a Latina,
15:42
you have to work extra hard because you're both of those things
15:45
I feel like because I had that in my head again
15:47
I worked my butt off and that's why I think I
15:49
am where I am now is because.
15:51
people can see that I have a good work ethic and then
15:54
I'm very passionate about what I do and it doesn't matter where
15:57
you come from, it doesn't matter your background.
15:59
It matters your heart and a peer,
16:02
how much passion you put into something.
16:04
Absolutely. And you've worked with some like.
16:07
Really big stars and you get to work with them on their
16:12
makeup and look like I,
16:14
I believe Rihanna and Kali Uchis are some of your your clients
16:19
How does working with them inspire you and your career?
16:22
Oh my gosh, so much,
16:24
especially like Kali Uchis.
16:25
I actually just worked with her for Latin Grammys and she looked
16:29
beautiful, by the way.
16:31
She, she's a gorgeous girl and from the inside out and
16:34
just working with her.
16:36
It's great because, you know,
16:38
when they're sitting in the chair,
16:39
they're also sharing light with you.
16:41
They're also sharing their insight with their thinking,
16:44
their thoughts behind life and the way they,
16:47
you know, that they perceive life and Holly is such a
16:50
light when it comes to just the way she sees the world
16:54
like in This positive way.
16:56
If the internet can be brutal sometimes,
16:58
you know, you go online and not everyone's your friend and
17:01
not everybody wants to be your friend and they might be having
17:04
a bad day and they just want to ruin yours sometimes too
17:07
But Kali always has like this positive way of thinking about
17:09
things and like I think that for me that has inspired me
17:13
so much because it makes you feel like,
17:15
you know what, I don't matter what nobody says.
17:17
I'm gonna do it how I want to do it.
17:19
And I'm gonna be happy about the way I did it.
17:23
Thank you so much for everything you've shared with me.
17:25

17:27
