@artbargra 15 күн бұрын

Univisión has always been a garbage network (Come to think of it, Telemundo is, too. You guys must think we Latinos have shit taste in television). And seeing them shilling for a man who would deport their asses without a second though should give everyone pause. How come a man so full of hatred gather such a loyal and zealous fanbase?

Love John, he was #1 in my book on the Daily. Keep speaking out man, use your voice. Far too many people vote by community, and not by the individual. This country cannot afford another four years with that cesspool masquerading as a human.

To the Late Show producers, please pass this comment to Mr. Leguizamo: Dear Mr. Leguizamo, I love your body of work. You are one of my super heros! The one show that changed my life was your one-man show about Latino history. As a US American, I was not given the opportunity in my elementary, junior high, and high school to learn an accurate Latino history, which is still happening in almost all of the US. It is my belief that our educational system is doing a huge disservice to our children (especially whites like me) to block the total and accurate US history out of irrational fear. It's a rich history that is being blocked to us from accurately learning; especially what whites did/do. That leaves us with a handicap, which increases the possibility of repeating some of our most difficult history. That's a very long way of saying thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!!

My husband till this day loved him as Tybalt in the modern Romeo and Juliet movie with DiCaprio and Danes. He definitely has the acting chops.

I will always remember John Leguizamo for his role in Super Mario Bros. (1993). It's probably not the film he wants to be remembered for, but it's the one I always think of when I see his name. Also, I loved that movie, and I thoroughly enjoyed both his performance and Bob Hoskins'. Fight me.
