Lupita Valero has become one of the favorites of the public of ‘Nuestra Belleza Latina’ . His story of humility and immigrant has achieved empathy with the people. Without knowing this, she has a clear goal, to represent her peers and to be their reference.
On the way to the final, we spoke exclusively with Lupitas about everything and she confesses: “’Nuestra Belleza Latina’ is the great door for all of us who dream of working on TV” .
– You are a semifinalist, did you imagine you were going to get here?
Lupita Valero: The truth is that I have to admit that I was never predisposed to reach the final, I always said to myself: “Being in ‘Nuestra Belleza Latina’ has been a challenge that is not easy at all” … Every day your companions evolve and everything can happen, one day you do well, the next day you do not … Well, as far as God wants me to complete this project, I will be available , and obviously with the willingness to want to continue learning more, but then we have already seen that it is
– What has the most state?
Lupita Valero: Being away from my family, have patience and tolerance with other people who are not directly my family . In the house, as in the best families, there are fights, and you reconcile and your blood continues, and you hug them, after a while you tell them I love you, and then you pull yourself together with them and everything happens … But here it is not like that , there is a misunderstanding here and if you don’t fix it at the moment, this can get out of control , so it is having the patience, also having the will. ‘Nuestra Belleza Latina’ has a school for communication, but you know that you cannot be a good communicator if there is not a good heart , if there is not a good temper, then more than I all think that we are developing our mettle a bit too.
– Healthy coexistence, but you sleep with the enemy, because everyone wants that crown.
Lupita Valero: At first I was very focused on what I was going to do, what I wanted to do , how Lupita Valero wanted to project herself, because it is not only projecting yourself with your companions, but also that the viewer joins that dream . Previously I had competed in Mexico, and I think I was not emotionally prepared for me to know how to compete, because that is the word: you have to learn to compete in a healthy way, because when the reward comes, it is a first place, a second Instead, the reward tastes good … I have always seen my colleagues as healthy competition, because being here is a constant evolution, so you as a public begin to say, “not the one from Puerto Rico is is going to stay, the one from Mexico is going to go ”, and suddenly it is not true, the one from Mexico reached the end, and the one from Puerto Rico left when it was a strong participant.
I see my colleagues as a competition, every day they have progress and I said: “Well, this as long as I’m here, I have a set goal, and I’m going there, and I’m going fixed ”… But there comes a time when, of course, insecurity shows itself, because I am a human being, I am a woman who is building, I have 25 years , and the fact that I am in NBL does not mean that I know everything, because I am building myself, but I also try to focus on how I want to see myself, in what way I I want to feed, in what way I want to cope, and also live the experience and I have lived it very beautiful, the truth is that I can say that it is very beautiful.
– What is What do you want the public to know about you?
Lupita Valero: I would love to be given the opportunity to continue here in the competition, as a point of reference. I think that in my generation, through social networks, the media, each time they are not putting more images that do not see anything similar to what Lupita Valero is , I speak aesthetically, physically, whatever you want … I think it’s good to see someone who looks like you, someone who tells you, you know what, I met her when I was a waitress, she She attended me, or her mother sold bread in the market and I bought her mother bread, and she went with me to elementary school and said, she could, she could do it . “Oh, she is from the town and she is an Indian”, but no, it is not important where you come from, here is the important thing is to let the world know that you can, and that you can do it . I know that my story is probably not the only one in the world because it is not, but without a doubt there are very few of us brave who dare to tell that story, and to leave anonymity because it feels good to leave anonymity.
– Now that you are steps away from the crown, what do you say to that girl who saw how her mother was made fun of or how they made fun of you?
Lupita Valero: Many of us sometimes grow up from scrubs to life, some live more privileged than others, and in this case, my generation as a daughter, I did not have to live that privileged aspect . What I do know is that my learning was always based on principles and values. Lupita, that girl who ran in the streets in that neighborhood called La Rufo, in a town called Iguala, I would tell her that she is achieving it, because even, I can tell you that ‘Nuestra Belleza Latina’ has changed my life as you have no idea. This changed since I did my first virtual casting, because I had not seen my father ago 16 years, and ‘Nuestra Belleza Latina’ brought me closer.
My dad didn’t take me to elementary school, my dad didn’t take me to a school meeting, he didn’t take me looking for tickets, but OMG when I see him again, my dad bought me my first pair of sneakers for me to come to ‘Nuestra Belleza Latina’ , so you know what that means … What you had to live has already passed and you strengthened yourself, you embraced your circumstances and you are moving forward. My goal is even bigger, and ‘Nuestra Belleza Latina’ is part of Lupita Valero’s process , and what I do know is that I’m doing it, and I’m not doing it I know if it is as I imagined it or how I have planned it, because if the plans have changed a bit, but I am enjoying it a lot.
– What is that meta, Lupita?
– Lupita Valero: The pandemic was a very big reference for everyone of learning, also how to move the chip a little, to value what we had but that routine life, that common moments we They stole attention, to be grateful, to be happy, and also to accept who you are. I was one of those women, and I will admit it, that I was living to live, that you go and that you walk and that you know that you are going to go to work and that you know that today you have to do this, but the question when this happened: “Are you enjoying it? Are you enjoying your process? You have 25 years, everything you are doing you really want to do? ”…
The answer was that no, I was not doing something I wanted, I was not doing something with which I felt happy and loved , and then there was the search for my own dreams, accept my reality, accept me, and the most important thing in life, be happy. My next goal would be to win the crown of ‘Nuestra Belleza Latina’, if I am given the opportunity, but if it does not happen, I also have a plan, which is to continue developing because this is my dream , continue to be in the media and this is a step, for the girls who see this interview, I can tell you that ‘Nuestra Belleza Latina’ is the door, it is the great door for all the girls who dream of working on TV .
– ‘Nuestra Belleza Latina ‘It is a great door, which you enter, are you prepared to know that you cannot close that door anymore?
Lupita Valero: Before coming to this interview I was talking with my partner Sirey and with Génesis , which are the ones that I have the closest approach in the competition and we said: “There is a week to go to go back to reality, literally, to reality, what is happening out there? What is going to happen at least when I get to see my mom in town? and how are people going to see you? And how can that also consume what you are? ”… It’s a difficult medium… I don’t have the answer now, what I do know is that when it comes out, the first thing What I am going to do is look at my people and see myself reflected, know where I come from, reaffirm what I am done , and also regain a little strength, because that is heavy, it is not easy to get here and keep you, it has been a good resistance, but I will have to move forward and I think that I am going to be victorious in this.
– How do you feel Being, together with Sirey Morán, one of the favorites, is it a responsibility, a risk, as well as a happiness?
Lupita Valero: … I have a friendship relationship with Sirey, she is a woman whom I can say that I admire a lot, I admire her ability to lead herself, because She is a woman of war, a fighter, all of them in general, but with Sirey I have more opportunity to talk about situations in life, as we have also faced the risks that have come from wanting to conquer our own dreams, so it is nice that we are both among the favorites.
When I met her I told her: “It would be a blessing if you and I are holding hands. and with all the humility in the world, just as they have taught me to win, with the same humility I would recognize your triumph, so if this is going to be part of what God requires for our plans ”… But obviously it’s a responsibility to be a favorite because it’s still like I’m throwing the 80% of kilos, I’m going to throw him 200% to make people proud.
– What do you say to that people who support you, who make you a favorite and those people who still don’t understand you yet?
Lupita Valero : I will start by thanking the people who have been with me forever, you know that one brings history, and Lupita Valero did not convert overnight, I had than working hard, and then thanking those people, who continue to believe in me, because for many it can already represent a victory to be in ‘Nu estra Belleza Latina ‘, and for my family they already know that I already feel victorious, but for others it may represent that having the crown is victory.
And to the people who do not know me in person, and who began to follow me through ‘Our Beauty Latina ‘, to tell them that I am going to continue fighting for my dreams, and whatever happens, my message is to reach the hearts of many other girls , of many other women, adolescents, even men who they are reflected with my story, and tell them that everything can be achieved, that it does not matter where you come from, that it does not matter how many difficulties you have, tell them that at the end the road or the light is seen at the end of the road and sometimes not even at the end , sometimes we have her in front of us and we don’t even realize …
Tell them to dare to know me a little more, that Lupita Valero still has a great story for counting , that I love n would be a point of reference, I do not want to be compared to me, I want to be the same as her, long ago I left the comparison as part of my vocabulary, and I started using the word reference , because you know that the word reference is to take a bit of all that good stuff you see, and make it your own version.
