Show transcript
00:00
Amy Daly, today we are lucky to have actress,
00:03
singer, dancer, performer,
00:05
beautiful Andy Gonzalez on the show.
00:09
I We're huge fans of yours and we loved you on
00:14
Flaming Hot and Hentified.
00:16
Now you're on Lopez versus Lopez season 3 as a guest star
00:20
Can you tell us a little more about your role and
00:22
like Who you play.
00:24
It's such an amazing show.
00:25
I mean, as you know,
00:26
you have, I'm sure you've been watching for the last 3
00:28
seasons. I mean,
00:29
the fact that they got a 3rd season,
00:30
you can't be bad if you got a 3rd season.
00:33
They're killing it.,
00:34
I just, I love the show so much.
00:36
So when, you know,
00:37
I've been in conversation with Debbie Wolf,
00:39
the showrunner, and Mayan and George,
00:41
we've been trying to figure out a way to get me on
00:43
that made sense and this role came along and,
00:47
you know, Mayan and Quentin are getting married.
00:50
And May doesn't really have any friends.
00:52
We've never been introduced to any of her friends on the show
00:55
So I play her high school best friend Annie Dominguez,
01:00
and we had a little falling out around high school and we
01:02
don't really know why.
01:03
We kind of explore that in this episode,
01:05
and that's what I love about Lopez versus Lopez in general.
01:08
They're not shying away from any uncomfortable topics.
01:14
finding the humor in them.
01:16
And that's I think what makes it so relatable and why
01:20
it resonates with so many audiences across the world.
01:23
That's gorgeous. And being surrounded by beautiful brown talented people,
01:28
that's amazing, right?
01:29
How was that experience?
01:31
And Matt Matt, of course,
01:34
who's also amazing, who's also beautiful.
01:38
Oh my God, it's,
01:39
it's fantastic. I mean,
01:41
there's, it's such a fun shorthand that ends up happening when
01:43
you're on sets like that,
01:45
and they're all so gifted at what they do.
01:48
I mean, everybody on this show is very seasoned and have
01:51
been doing it for a while.
01:52
So, I mean,
01:54
it just, it makes sense.
01:55
Like, yes, obviously this is the most perfect cast with
01:59
the most perfect showrunner and the writers are fantastic.
02:01
It's, it's, it's magic.
02:03
I just felt like I was,
02:04
I, I walked into the most well-oiled machine.
02:07
Incredible, incredible. Well,
02:09
we hope we can't wait to see you on it and we
02:11

02:13

02:15

Capirotada also kind of OK with that punche man.
03:33
You know, like my mom swears by my nana makes a
03:36
bunchche and it's not bad,
03:38
it is good, but I'm just like sometimes for me like
03:41
warm juice, I feel like I have to be in the
03:43
mood for it. I mean,
03:44
if that's a little something something,
03:46
then I'll take it,
03:46

03:50

All right, so we're gonna play a little game continuing with
03:56

03:58

04:00
Pretty much we're gonna give you a list of different scenarios and
04:03
you can tell me whether you love it or we don't mess
04:06
with it, you hate it.
04:07
He launching during the holidays.
04:12
I'm so guilty of this.
04:14
I'm so guilty of this,
04:17
but I hate it.
04:17
I hate myself for doing it.
04:19
No, but this season we are not hard launching during the
04:22
holidays, but you can't help it,
04:23
it's cuffing season. What do you want from me?
04:25
Period. And you know what?
04:27
I like that way you know,
04:28
like, you know,
04:28
saluda todos, is he a picky eater,
04:31
like. Honestly, listen,
04:34
honestly, like I was just talking to my,
04:36
my theas and myita about this,
04:37
and they're like, we don't wanna meet the next one,
04:39
we wanna meet the one like your husband.
04:41
I'm like, Ferras,
04:42
how am I supposed to know that they're my husband if you
04:44
don't help me out?
04:45
And they're like, first of all,
04:46
don't call me Ferra.
04:47
I'm like, sorry,
04:47
my bad. You're like,
04:49
it's in a, it's a friendly way,
04:51
like. I'm like,
04:52
yeah, I was like,
04:52
bitch. All right,
04:56
Black Friday shopping.
04:57
Oh, I hate it.
04:58
I'm so over consumerism.
05:00
We have enough shit y'all.
05:01
Stop buying things. If you really need it,
05:03
go for it. But like the holidays are not about consumers
05:07
and the holidays are not about gifts.
05:09
The holidays are about how much love is in your heart.
05:11
I just remember my mom stressing out every year during Christmas,
05:15
trying to get everybody gifts,
05:17
and everybody was so stressed for what?
05:18
Just to throw the shit away,
05:20
so hard pass. Long ass voice notes.
05:25
I'm a long ass voice note kind of girl.
05:28
I know I'm annoying.
05:30
You know why? Because sometimes I'm so on the go that
05:33
even for me I'm like,
05:34
I'll just play it in the car as I'm driving and I'm
05:36
like, mhm, and then you don't miss context.
05:39
I feel like text,
05:41
things can get lost in translation.
05:43
Do you know what I mean?
05:44
That's true, right?
05:46
Yeah, that's true.
05:47
I mean you don't agree with me,
05:48
you don't agree with me.
05:50
I recently got into a group and they like said
05:54
like I'm like either call me or text me,
05:56
peroueto. And then,
05:59
red receipts.
06:01
You know what, I'm a red receipts ass bitch,
06:02
and let me tell you why,
06:04
OK, cause if I'm leaving your shit,
06:05
I'll read that shit on purpose,
06:07
ho, all right.
06:09
Listen, I'm always out and if I,
06:11
but if not like I'll leave it like I had like you
06:13
delivered it, but I won't open it.
06:15
But sometimes to me,
06:16
I'm a Scorpio, sometimes for me I'm not even going front
06:19
It's a little bit like Reddit and Reddit left it.
06:23
And what. You know,
06:27
my husband's a Scorpio,
06:29
and he, you know,
06:30

06:36
The boxes Scorpio men are different.
06:37
