Korean Teenager and Mexican React To Top Mexican Actresses!!

[@NataliaFrias]

I’m just saying it once for all the people misinterpreting. In this video I’m saying how in Mexico dark skin native american women aren’t CONSIDERED pretty. I was speaking about the society standards: “Compared to others, she may not be as pretty, but still is PROTECTING the image of mexican traditional people” (and that’s good).Yalitza is changing the standards and I’m here for it! Estaba hablando de estándares. Antes de hablar de los estándares en el area de entretenimiento en México, hablé de los de Corea. Y luego pase a decir que de acuerdo a los estándares: “Comparada con otras no es considerada bonita, pero aún así, protege la imagen del mexicano tradicional y (es bueno)”.

[@Gabriela-bl5py]

Yalitza made an impact not because she's not pretty, she is beautiful. The reason why it was so revolutionary to make Yalitza the main character in a movie is because she's an indigenous woman, a truly indigenous woman... not mixed nor white as we're used to see in the media

[@makerbilly]

I'm really sad that she said Yalitza wasn't as beautiful. Mexico has a really bad problem with colorism and racism and before Yalitza I had never seen a Mexican actress that wasnt white. Yalitza looks like most Mexicans because most of us are mixed with Spanish and Indigenous people. People were super racist when she started to become famous because she has indigenous features and isnt European. Indigenous people are beautiful too and looking European does not make you more beautiful. 5:16 I was very happy and it warmed my heart when he said she thought she was beautiful at 5:21 because she really is and I'm glad that he didnt think less of her because she looked different.

[@NataliaFrias]

I was talking about standards in Korea for actors and then stated that Yalitzia, “compared to the others isn’t a pretty face but she’s the representation of true Mexicans, and she’s getting famous for it.” Speaking about standards in Mexico, now that I’ve spoken about Korean ones.

@@Jesus-gu7dy There is indeed no specific look for Mexicans. Mexican beauty standards however value whiteness and that's why all of the other actresses were European. Not everyone in Mexico reflects that. That's why it's important for so many of us who do have indigenous heritage to see someone like Yalitza be on the big screen. I brought that up because while Mexicans dont all look the same, a lot of us do look like her (ie, not white). Again, I never said theres a specific look for Mexicans. "Looking like most Mexicans" doesn't mean theres a specific look for mexicans, it just means a lot of us look like that.

1.- Martha Higareda is well known in México, when she was younger she starred a movie called ‘Amarte Duele’ which is an iconic movie from early 2000’s and sometimes people still makes memes and references about it. She has many movie and tv credits as an actress. I’ve seen Martha’s recent work in the Netflix series ‘Altered Carbon”. People sometimes criticize her because of showing nudity in some of her works *rolls eyes*. 2.-Danna Paola is well know since her childhood role (and name of her telenovela) ‘María Belén’ where she interpreted an innocent good girl. At that age she even did a skit with comedian Eugenio Derbez (VERY popular in México), portraying the opposite of her original role and becoming a bully to the character Ludovico P. Luche. She acted really well and was super fun in it, a lot of people have watched that sketch (there’s even a meme with the phrase “me vale”) and a few years ago Eugenio and her reunited in a comedic video making a reference to that. Danna Paola did another famous adapted telenovela when she was a teenager ‘Atrévete a Soñar’ where she sang ‘Mundo de Caramelo’ which became a very popular song in México. Danna has also worked in theater and she’s a singer. She has also been a coach for a singers show called ‘La Academia’, where she has a video that went viral and became a meme with different phrases from that video, specially “hay muchas personas queriendo ocupar tu lugar” “yo no estoy aquí por bonita” and “¿Así no soy culera contigo?”. Danna’s most recognized recent work is the one in ‘Elite’. 3.-Belinda. Sometimes I even forget her last name because everyone knows her just with her first name. In México, if someone is talking about a Belinda, she’s the one. She has, somewhat, a similar childhood history as Danna Paola (or better said, Danna Paola has a similar story as Belinda (Belinda is older)), she started acting in telenovelas and singing at a young age. She became very popular. She only acted when she was a child/teenager a couple of times and focused on her singer/songwriter career. I know that she has SOLD OUT concerts and sold a lot of physical albums when she was a teen. Belinda has recently worked as a vocal coach in ‘La Voz’ (The Voice) México and ‘La Voz kids’ and being a singer is still her main focus. 4.-Natasha Dupeyron. I recognize her because of telenovelas, but I didn’t know she was one of the most popular celebrities in México. So, searching quickly on google I think it might be that she might be popular because social media and some of her family are also celebrities (?). 5.- Yalitza Aparicio is WELL known recently in México because of being one of the lead actresses in the movie “ROMA”, because of being indigenous, people started to publicly talk about the situation about indígenas in our country, about how are they disrespected and still receive racism, discrimination, injustice and not having a voice in spaces like in the show biz, so Yalitza became that voice. A lot of people criticized her by her looks and her acting skills (as she hasn’t acted before, she was just finishing university to become a teacher, in the country side) showing to the public that classism is still a big problem in México, that’s why we are really proud of her, she made history and we hope she keeps making it! 6.- I don’t know Ana Brenda Contreras, I’m sorry. I have only watched the first season of Dynasty. So, I don’t think Mexicans really know her. 7.- Eiza Gonzalez became popular with the telenovela ‘Lola, érase una vez’ when she was 17. She didn’t started her career as early as some of the other actresses. Then she made a few other novelas. Suddenly she received a lot of public attention when she appeared changed, she had cosmetic surgery and she also gained a lot of criticism and hate because of that, (which is a shame btw, people shouldn’t be that rude). She started to work in international movies in secondary roles, such as ‘Baby Driver’ and in the series ‘From Dusk Till Down’. She gained international popularity when she appeared at the Oscars red carpet with a yellow dress, everyone was googling her as the girl with the yellow dress. I like her personality, as she has shown a lot of maturity taking about how she has received that hate for some Mexicans. She also seems a lot of fun... her recent popular role is in the movie ‘I care a lot’ and she also appears in the upcoming ‘Godzilla vs Kong’. 8.- Salma Hayek, I think she’s the more popular Mexican woman in Hollywood. If you are from México or the United States and you don’t know her, I don’t know what’s wrong with you, lol. But seriously, she has a long career and is well known mainly because of her work in the United States. -I’m a 31 yo Mexican woman.

She is implying that the other actresses would "enter" to Korean standards, because of their physical features. And unlike the others, Yalitza might not seem pretty to Koreans, but she maintains a more Mexican image. Besides, they seem to be talking about the "best-known" Mexican actresses. It's not the fault of Natalia that the producers of Mexican telenovelas choose actresses with European features for the lead roles and for the roles of maids, actresses with more Mexican image and these actresses are less well-known

The tone and the choice of words for every white actress vs the ones for Yalitza say it all. Internalized racism at its finest, so deep into so many Latin American people that they're oblivious to it. Talking about 'ooh compared to korean beauty standards...' c'mon. Couldn't you just say she was pretty and a new standard in the industry? It's tiring how non-white beauty always has to be nit-picked and questioned, and diminished.

Like, not even guy next to her whose "beauty standards" are "so different" said anything else but "she's pretty" and that was supposedly the reason she had to make that tasteless comment.

[@nari.oh.356]

I think so too! I tend to get irritated when indigenous Mexicans get cast aside but i everyone has different preferences in what they think is beautiful like in Mexico, European features are more desired and are cast as beautiful.(like Belinda Peregrin) I feel like when people think of Mexico they think of these other Mexican actresses that either looks European or are just brown/tanned skinned but still have some European features of course they are beautiful too but Yaltiza is very beautiful and has a unique look which draws more attention as people just aren't used to seeing indigenous features/people often in the media. Yaltiza actually the image of what a traditional Mexican woman looks like. Usually, people don't get to see many indigenous women as the main one's shown look European or just have a fair amount of indigenous blood but just not enough to look like Yaltiza. I think indigenous people are very beautiful as for I am one as well. Overall i just think she is a very hardworking woman that is changing the game for sure.
