  3. ^ [3] "Cuban descent actress Joanna Garcia"
  4. ^ Sigler - [4] "I'm half-Cuban -- my mother was born in Cuba and came here as a teenager -- so it's got a lot of Latin influence to it. It's pretty poppish. It's kind of more on the J-Lo side of things."
  5. ^ Vilasuso - [5] "The great thing about George is that he's Cuban, and I'm Cuban, and we have that dynamic going on" [6] "CBS.com: Now, you're of Cuban descent? JORDI VILASUSO: My parents are from Cuba. I was born in Miami. All of Miami is going to start watching Guiding Light."
