Gloria Estefan |
|
- Angela Lanza, The Perez Family, 1995. "At her audition, I wanted to cast Angela on the spot for her first film," says Indian film-maker Mira Nair. "But the studio wanted a famous Latin singer to cash in on. So, I went through the motions, wheeling and dealing Gloria Estefan (and Gloria Trevi, Celia Noel, etc), a host of talented singers but stuck out for Angela - the definitive Flavia. Her effervescence!"
- Catherine Zeta-Jones, Rock of Ages, 2011. The Cuban-born singer - Gloria María Milagrosa Fajardo García Estefan - was almostg a shoo-in for Patricia Whitmore. Apparently, even though she lost out to CZJ, she subbed for her at some table-readings. But why would she have been there...?
