“Gloria Estefan was a huge influence for me. Of course, she was one of the few Latina women around who had this major international success. She sang in Spanish and English, and she was very much the sort of woman I recognised from my culture. I go to her home, and I think that she is a woman who has got it just right. She has her music, she has her family, she has her relationship. I admire her so much because she has always put her family before everything. All her priorities are in place and she is still an amazingly creative artist.”

“What I got as result was my work for two periods as mayor. She came as if she owned the place, but she has to earn respect first. I just met her when she presented as candidate; before, we never saw her.”

“She has that innate sensuality that captivates the gaze and doesn't make you think of anything else, she has that smile that makes her unique in the world. It's nice to see your woman shine with light and vitality, so make sure her priority is always her happiness.”

Prevale (1983) Italian DJ and producer

Original: Lei ha quella sensualità innata che cattura lo sguardo e non ti fa pensare ad altro, lei ha quel sorriso che la rende unica al mondo. È bello vedere la propria donna splendere di luce e vitalità, quindi fai in modo che la sua priorità sia sempre la felicità.

“One woman came to me recently, since this happened, and described that she needs contraception to prevent seizures. So she has several seizures a month if she doesn't have contraception to balance her hormones. And that's just an incredible intrusion on her life, her ability to manage her daily affairs, if she doesn't have access to that medical prescription. So that's one of the huge impacts.”
