Tune in to our first Spanglish episode with the Latina queen of Spanish comedy, Angelica Vale.
As part of our Hispanic Heritage Month series, Angelica shares life lessons from her vast career in television, music, and stage plays. She explains that as Hispanics and Americans, we must strive to be united. In a heartfelt moment of openness, Angelica discusses how she fought back to build her self-esteem while filming award-winning Mexican telenovela La Fea Más Bella (The Most Beautiful Ugly Girl).
She reflects on a pivotal conversation from her childhood that set her on a transformative path toward personal growth. Since then, striving to become a better person has been a cornerstone of her life. Today, Angelica has come full circle with that aspiration. She is a passionate advocate for Food For The Poor's child sponsorship program, Angels of Hope, showing unwavering commitment to helping underprivileged girls in her native Mexico.
Finally, Angelica gives Beyond the Plate audiences her thoughts about her legacy, looking back to her career stemming from her roles in Soñadoras, Vaselina, La Fea Má Bella, El Gran Pastelero - Bake Off México and her stage show (Las Angelicas) with her legendary mother, Angelica Maria (Lá Novia de Mexico).
