00:00Listen, uh, I can't believe it's been 30 years since Selena, I can't believe that in 30 years
00:10we're going to do the retrospective of this and you'll be 60 by then, which is...
00:13Wow.
00:14Get out there.
00:15No, I think what you do in this movie is one of your best performances yet, and I know
00:26that is something you say now that I'm getting up here.
00:36And I-
00:37That's legit.
00:38We have that.
00:39No, no, no.
00:40It's because I want to say thank you to you guys.
00:41Because we've been doing this all this time together.
00:42You're awesome.
00:43We've been doing it our whole time and you guys have been here with me, and you know,
00:52I was singing some new songs and I went back and sang it
00:57behind my love, which was my first song in 1999.
01:00And it's that being of life, what a journey this has been.
01:07And I honestly feel that the best is yet to come.
01:13I honestly feel that my creativity and who I am as an artist is like you said,
01:18I also feel that this for me was another kind of level for me
01:24of going deeper into who I am as a person, as an artist.
01:28And these type of roles change you in a way when you allow them to
01:31because they come to you at times in your life when you need them
01:35and they help you grow and they heal you in a way.
01:38And if you can kind of let yourself be vulnerable enough
01:42and real enough to show your flaws
01:46and to really expose yourself in a way as an artist,
01:55that is a gift that you always want.
01:58You want to have that because then you know,
02:01like when people go out there, even with songs or whatever,
02:05it's like you want to know that
02:09if you're going through something, somebody else went through it too.
02:12And this is how they got through it.
02:14And for me, that's really what my life is about,
02:17making things that are beautiful and entertaining,
02:20but that also let people know that love is what matters
02:25and that you're not alone, that we're all in this together.
