During her interview she touched on her love life. And Eiza admitted that after being cheated on, she now only dates men who have been in therapy. Seen March 1 in Paris
The actress shared that when she was a teen idol, she learned that her boyfriend had recorded an intimate video with another girl. She claims that she learned of his infidelity from ‘the cover of a magazine,’ just like everyone else.
But – it did not leave her in shambles. She decided to take the unfortunate situation and make something positive out of it. Since, she found her upmost success.
The Mexico City native reflected on the scandal saying she coped with a mix of partying and crying as a young actress in Los Angeles.
So, she worked tirelessly to distract herself from the failed relationship with her career.
While distraught and emotional she revealed that her mother pushed her and made moves as she healed. When she updated her IMDB page and got a manager in the United States, the jobs started rolling in.
With 10 years of experience acting and signing in Mexico as that point, she had the resume to back her up.
After modeling in her home country, she finally landed a role in the hit 2017 film Baby Driver and she has only continued to amass more success.
Acting provided her with a platform where she could fully express herself by playing other characters
‘And then it all happened,’ she said noting the turning point, ‘It all stemmed from my boyfriend cheating on me with a s*x tape. What are the odds?’
On Monday she set her foot down saying, ‘If you’ve not gone to therapy, I’m not dating you.’
But its not her ex who she owes her career to. Rather, her late father and grandparents who passed in the same year when she was just 12.
The actress called it ‘the most tragic thing that has ever happened to me. It was really weird, because I was in the saddest part of my life…but I was the happiest I’ve ever been.’
Her mother enrolled the heartbroken Gonzalez in a variety of extracurricular activities, including as acting, dance, and painting, to keep her mind off the trauma.
‘The moment that I was acting and the moment that I was singing and the moment that I was on that stage, I was more alive than ever,’ she said as she reminisced about her first time acting.
Gonzalez landed her first acting role at 15 in Mexican soap opera Lola, Erase una Vez (Lola: Once Upon a Time) where she played a girl who led a double life…much like Hannah Montana.
Her grief persisted despite her acting career. However, it provided her with a platform where she could fully express herself by playing other characters.
‘I’m living all the feelings I want to live,’ she said about the unique perspective acting provides her, ‘I’m ridden with fear, but I welcome the fear. It’s the only time in my life that the fear feels friendly.’
‘Every single time that something really tragic has happened, something amazing has happened right afterwards,’ she said; seen March 8 in Austin, Texas
The star, who has been linked to A-list actors Liam Hemsworth, Timothée Chalamet, and Jason Momoa, expressed that her job has provided her with the life lessons she needed:
‘I feel like I’ve lived 20 lives,’ she described, ‘[But] every time that something tragic happens to me, I never complain about it.’
‘Every single time that something really tragic has happened, something amazing has happened right afterwards.’
