00:00

00:03

00:07
Help me welcome Paloma Diaz Rivas.
00:15
Happy to have you all the way from Texas.
00:17
I know porque porque iso.
00:21
I met her at Cariaso Fest and right away,
00:24
you know, we vibed and we just had to have her
00:27
she's in, she's in L A,
00:29
you know, this weekend.
00:32
So you're la Reina del Valle.
00:34
I love your content.
00:35
You definitely don't have any trouble finding a dance partner at parties
00:41
What inspired you to make like dancing videos and how
00:45
do you have so much begging long story short?
00:49
Fun fact, I used to not like dancing really weirdly
00:54
enough. It was just like,
00:55
I don't know if it was because I was shy or like
01:00
it was to that extreme.
01:01
But I got to give a shout out to my mom because
01:04
she was the one who was like,
01:05
you're my only daughter.
01:06
So I'm and so she was kind of the one who introduced
01:13
me to it all and when it came to the videos,
01:16
you know, I was really into fashion at that time when
01:19
I started on tiktok and when I would do my fashion videos
01:23
was Cumbia salsa and stuff like that.
01:26
And I would start dancing and people are like,
01:27
oh, you should dance to this song.
01:30
ok, Ila, I lava and they're like,
01:32
oh, you should this song.
01:34
ya, me and it kind of just went from there and
01:37
people didn't start asking for tutorials and stuff like that.
01:40
So, and now we're here.
01:42
So people were hyping you up for it right?
01:46
For my heart. Because I was like,
01:47
you guys think I was good enough from all the ways to
01:50
get pulled to dance,
01:52
which has been the smoothest for you.
01:54
I feel like the smoothest has been and you're just standing there
02:04
ready to be asked and they're just like,
02:06
come on, let's go dance.
02:06
It's not like a per it's nicely nicely,
02:12
but it's kind of like,
02:13
let's go dance. It's like,
02:14
ok, you're really taking the lead is for sure.
02:19
That does work sometimes because that happened to me Saturday night.
02:23
Like they just went boom.
02:26
we're doing this and I'm like,
02:33
He goes, you don't look 32.
02:40
it's smooth. It is overall smooth.
02:43
And,, so what made you want to make dad
02:46
and seeing content on social media because I know we touched on
02:50
what made you really just go for it completely?
02:54
I think a lot of things for sure,
02:56
Pero loque me like mass,
02:58
you know, as I said,
02:59
to keep going forward was genuinely my audience.
03:02
You know, I would get comments here and there and they
03:03
would always say like,
03:04
oh t the time like Buena vra or they make my day
03:08
they put a smile on my face,
03:09
I laugh or I relate to that and how we were talking
03:12
earlier. It builds community Rae Cine.
03:15
No. So so I wanted to keep providing that.
03:18
He honestly, I think dancing is just one of my biggest
03:21
passions apart. And so that alone,
03:23
it never feels like I'm working a day in my life.
03:25
Porque Amo loque lao sharing.
03:27
Has there ever been a comment that stood out to you that
03:30
you were like, damn,
03:32
that really inspired me.
03:34
I think honestly the I've gotten not,
03:38
it wasn't a comment but it was ad m where a girl
03:40
was like it basically or Porque Ain Cones de Valley.
03:47
She was like, you helped me build my self esteem up
03:50
and she wrote like this,
03:51
I have a screenshot of it.
03:52
She helped me build like this basically like got out of her
03:55
shell Ta Mien and I just touched my heart.
03:57
Porque ta, you know,
04:00
you know, so that to me was like,
04:03
OK, I'm doing something right here for,
04:05
you know, you know what else I love?
04:08
Like you dance on you,
04:13
you dance all types of music.
04:15
So you Bachata steps are on point.
04:19
I appreciate it. Who's teaching you these different types of dances
04:24
To Mexicano? My mother that's Lo Norteno Cumbia,
04:28
especially in Quebradita because she was in her twenties in the nineties
04:33
Suero Mole, like she was the one being tossed around like
04:36
yes, that was her because she's short.
04:37
Petite. Does she have back problems?
04:40
No girl. But I think she was just so light.
04:49
You know what I mean?
04:50
She's little, she's the Bachata.
04:53
Honestly, I just learned that on my own.
04:55
I think my mom me uno the advice that was like,
05:00
if you know how to feel the music,
05:02
you don't know how to dance any genre and the music will
05:05
tell you what to do.
05:09
So like these little ladies that has some good stuff.
05:14
I like that. And so with that,
05:16
I've carried it through like p like dancing Bachata dancing Bollywood dancing
05:23
I've always wanted to be in a Bollywood film.
05:26
You should go for it,
05:27
go for it. Maybe be hiring people from all over the
05:34
right? How's the wild scene?
05:37
describe like a party for us.
05:40
People don't start dancing until they hear in Una Nortena.
05:42
Like, if you're like,
05:43
here in Cali, like Evana more so.
05:50
It's like Las Nortena right now.
05:52
Los groups Nortenos are popping over.
05:55
That's kind of how the scene is over there and hot take
05:58
But I think AACE guys and Gros,
06:01
at least from Dallas and City Tan,
06:03
Poquito Mas Altos because they want to dance a certain way.
06:09
like, you know what I mean?
06:12
Like you just steal the music.
06:13
Yeah. Yeah, I mean you just let your body do
06:15
it type of thing and,
06:19
no, no, like come on like a and I'm like
06:33
