I would be interested in a movie about her journey and how she became a actress.
She'll play herself most likely. She grew up and was 1 of my cousins friends in the neighborhood and she was always around her house back then in the late 90's and early to mid 2000's, I remember meeting her 1 day at my cousins house on school st in around eggy and shes a small little petite girl and was mature for her age at the time and she wasnt a ghetto bird like most of the girls around there and she said shes gonna be a actress 1 day when she was going to BAA near fenway park.
I knew her
She wrote a book about it, you should read it if you haven't.
@@gensai93 hi. Do u know the title of her book??
The book is so descriptive it details everything you should read it
just makes her final scene on the plane all the more heartbreaking
JTC TV honestly i feel like she was genuinely vulnerable during that episode
I agree , I felt the same- totally heartbreaking
In OITNB???
It is shocking to find out that even with all her success, she hasn't reunited with her parents. I can imagine what it's like to be away from your family, because I am, but to not be able to fly to them and see them... I feel for her.
I think she hasn't reunited with them in the states but she has gone back to visit them.
She has the money to do so. Idk what’s stopping her
High Kitty In her book she explains that her parents got divorced, and the mom is living in Spain and the dad in colombia (idk they might’ve gotten it wrong in the video or I might be wrong)
she says that since she pretty much grew without them for her teenage years and established a whole career and stuff her parents became more like godparents... important but not as close
Ale Blanco that’s so sad. Sadder than not being able to see them.
In the book she talks about visiting her parents. The video said that she has not been with her parents in the US since they were deported. Now that she is financially stable, it would be nice for her to bring her parents to the US. I don't see why it can't be done now that she is an advocate for immigration.
Deporting her parents whilst she is in school, that is wacked.
Andrew Sturman that how the gestapo does it ..... don’t care about the kids....
It’s happening still right now
If only her parents didn't break the law and if only her parents informed the agents about their daughter they wouldn't be split up.
@@magesnz oh dear god. I come back to this comment and its of course "tHe NaZiS!" are the problem.
@@vagabondwastrel2361 they dont listen to law. Instead they'll always say "nO bOdY sHoUlD bE iLlEgAl On StOlEn LaNd!". 🤦
Her final scene in OITNB makes it even more heartbreaking...
I wouldn't be surprised if that was her condition for coming back or something. You know, like that was the story she wanted to tell.
she's so intelligent
Why wouldn’t she be?
Ugh I love her😩she gets better wit every interview and show I swear.
When I got deported. My daughter’s sister best friend gave your book to her. She never wanted to read it, she gave it to me instead to read . I read it and it helped me so much. I was lucky. I was able to come back and I always think of you and your family in Colombia. I hope they can come back one day . You are such a strong beautiful woman !
I did not got impressed by her book her parents came with 5 years visa and that time was much easier to get legal .
I only think that she's using that to be famous .
It’s crazy that she used lived two houses away from where I lived on that street in Egleston. I miss that area. Was good friends with the people who lived in that house after her.
Yea and when she lived in rozzi on wash st near Albano st I was living there still in rozzi like 3 or 4 st's over on hillview ave until 2013 when I moved to westie.
She needs to reunite with her parents.! Life is too short to wait any longer
It said she hasn’t reunited with her family in the US. I’m pretty sure she has been to Colombia to see them
She goes to Colombia once a year to see them. But it isn’t the same, she feels a huge disconnect.
im happy for her that no child services took her after or she would be figuring out a whole other part of the system thats just as broken. i hope she found a way to talk to them again tho.
They should of made the last oitnb episodes about her
Dominique Hilton no. That’s stupid
In a way it kind of was
There was a strong illegal alien focus on the last few OITNB episodes.
Well it was in a way
Aiden Bell no
I always thought she looked hella familiar I lived in Roxbury like down the street from elgeston sq, had a few friends the went to BA as well.
yeah same here. I lived off of walnut . and I swore I always seen her on the bus
dopecutie3x right? I live on Marcella st.
That's so cool
Wow im from Boston I heard a little bit about her story but i didn’t know she was from Massachusetts..sad about what happened to her family wish her well
what a beautiful soul
This is very close to home. Thank you for your story.
To find this out about her and her real life experience with the fucked up system or makes her final scene in OITNB that much more gut wrenching. So twisted that people can just be snatched up and disappear
How is the system fucked up? Can YOU name another country that'll just let you walk in illegally? Hell try doing that in Pakistan and they'll SHOOT you.
Omg I'm learning more about her after watching encanto and she grew up in the same town as me! My parents were also undocumented and I can't imagine what she went through
MUCH LOVE!!!!! Thank you for sharing. ❤️
Wow, I know and go to all these places all the time. It would’ve been so cool to see her but I love the message she’s sending. I had no idea she grew up in Boston.
She's perfect
So cute omfg😍
i love her so much
me too
I am weak for dimples ............
😍😍😍😍😍☺☺😚😊😚☺😍😍😊😚
But on the real she is a gorgeous , intelligent and just in amazing person and of course actress 😁😁
VOTE FOR MATRIZA!!!
I love this woman so much. She is so brave.
My grand son had dinner with this young lady not too long ago...he said she was perfectly wonderful and kind.
Her and her homegirl were the two baddest chicks on the show hands down 🔥🔥🔥
Yessssssss
We love you Maritza 😭💚
that one thumbs down is Donald Trump
al demaggio maga 2020 bitch
alana you’re an idiot.
alana Look up all the deportations under Obama.
@@kathconserv why would she do that when the comment is about Donald
You mean the man thats pro immigration? Yeah. He's such a hateful person😐
her parents would be so proud
❤️ so strong..
i wonder why she hasn’t reunited with her parents yet? she could fly to colombia
She's such an inspiration and what she's been through is heartbreaking for anyone she's my faveourite character on oitnb 😊
Omg I’m from Boston I had no idea
I love her story.. I love her..🥰
I love her even more
I love her so much ❤️
Deporting her family while in school. That's so messed up. Totally messed up
If you guys are intrested in her story you should really read her autobiography! "My Family Divided". I'm in the middle of reading it Right now! her story through life is amazing!
Muy tenaz su historia. Una tesa. Pa' lante Diane. Tus padres deben estar muy orgullosos de tí aquí en Colombia.
Sending much love to you Diane.
Que bueno que ella si está cumpliendo su sueño americano!!Felicidades por su actuación en serie orange Is the New black
I know how feels,I came home from school,my dad wasn't gone,he was dead.
Omg ,😯 i am so shocked shes from my city im shaking
I really love her very much ❤️ I love her story and I love her character ❤️ 😊
people who r like why don’t they just come here legally don’t understand how hard the process is makes my blood boil
i love one woman and it's her
I wish I could give her a very long hug😣😭❤️ Why hasn’t she gone to Colombia to visit them? That’s very strange. Before if she didn’t have the resources I understand but she definitely has them now.
She does. She go to Colômbia every year, is her parents who are no allow to go back to US
She does... she even says in the video that her parents are a lot closer to/for her now (because she can visit them and call them etc.)
You all need to see her in doom patrol . Her personal history is channelled into jane. She is an amazing actress who has overcome so much
I wish she spoke up more & does more activism because of her star power more people will pay attention. 🙏🏼
Honey Dubey follow her on insta she does alot
She actually does.
Honey Dubey she does!
She does a lot
she does
She grew up in Engleston Sq. area.
She's the only reason i like growing up in Boston
sapphiredark boston is amazing. be thankful
@@noordarwish700 sure. I'll be grateful because you told me to. -rolls eyes- boston sucks and theres a shooting on my street like every night, drug dealers amd crackheads at pretty much every station, the police here suck, people are disgusting rude and nobody knows how to drive.
Stacy williams First off, who the fuck are tou to say that? Have you lived in her shoes? If not shut the fuck up! What people don’t talk about how Boston is so great and this. For who??? For white people and it was my experience as well as many non-white people unless like many white Bostonians are very in the dark about the minority communities!
Karen Aguilar Calm down Karen.
@@sappiredark Ik this is late but it’s true I’ve lived in Boston literally my whole life since I was born and people don’t know how it’s rlly like in Boston they only see the outside perspective that’s all they’ll see
Imagine she would have moved to columbia when that happened to her parents. She would have never reached her dream of becoming an actress. I feel like she should visit her parents more than once a year now that she though. She mentined it in another interview.
Colombia***
judy barraza it’s sad, but she mentioned that because of what happened they stopped trying to come to the US and it strained their relationship so that’s why she doesn’t visit as much. They don’t have the relationship they once did so it sucks and it’s sad, but it makes sense as to why she doesn’t visit that often.
The statement about her not seeing them since they were deported are false. She has spent some time with them. She talks about it in her book. Do yourself a favor and go buy or rent it. It will make you love her even more.
she lived NEAR MEEEEEEE I’m like wow.
I just saw the last season of OITNB... and I was crying the stories are upsetting but we all know this had been happening for years n years the ADULTS know the possibilities, but the most HEART breaking to me was to see the children in the courtrooms... I just CANT BELIEVE this is happening!!
Did I miss the part when they said how long it had been since she saw her family, like in years?
Anna she can’t go visit them to Colombia? Well prob is very expensive airplane ticket or she can’t travel there legally? Sounds complicated
kopec82 that's what i was saying...i'm sure she's well off by now because of her career so i wonder why she just hasn't been able to go see her family :/
In another interview she said that she goes every year to Colombia to see her parents
tyy 182 she has she seems them once a year, but she couldn’t seen them from a long time before she had the money.
Thanks all but I was genuinely wondering how long they were separated for after the initial deportation, I think maybe I missed it in the documentary? It’s so awful and sad 😞
Omg where i grew up!
She's so cute😍😍
I love her!!!
She is a very beautiful and smart woman ❤
She is so pretty
She is such a beautiful girl. A beautiful being. Do doubt qualities she got from her parents. Our country could use more beautiful beings in it and it's a loss that we are minus two beautiful people due to deportation! And it's embarrassing our country would create an orphan, left to fend for herself, just to deport anyone.
Why has she not gone seen her family in Columbia?? 😦
Colombia pa Todo el mundo
She is absolutely beautiful 😍😍🔥
She’s so mf fine
Her story amongst thousands and thousands of other stories have ended like This. Sadly this continues to happen to hardworking people. We will not get better with that devil in office! Change needs to be made.
So beautiful Colombian
oh, there's no hate because she's Colombian and not Mexican. so nice.
No, theres no hate cause she's gorgeous though lol
bitch what?? thats not nice. Regardless of where in Latin America you are from people should still be nice
Can anyone please tell me if she reunited with her family or not
She has a beautiful voice tho
I have alegitimate question because i dont know, but if someone is deported are they able to try to come back after they have all their papers and things the next time?
Michelle Marie it is verrryy unlikely that they would be granted papers
she sounds like the character she plays in Jane the Virgen!
Love Boston Massachusetts my birth hometown and it's a great place in my opinion 🙏❤
Kool
How come she hasn't gone seen them?
she goes to Colombia every year to see them i think she talks about it in her book, and she said this in a few interviews too
She would make a cute couple with Chris Evans
Her pain is real. I have family in the Philippines who have been waiting over 10 years to come her legally. I don't believe it is ok that just because you live in a foreign country geographically close to the US, allows you to enter illegally and stay. That is so not fair to the rest of the people in the world that also want and deserve a better life and opportunity. Her pain is real, but sorry not sorry they deported her parents.
yo si le arreglo los papeles en caliente jajaja just kidding I hope everything gets better for this pretty girl!
I think it’s weird she hasn’t reunited with her parents yet. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
It says in the US, she might have gone to Colombia to see them though because immigration in America is broken because of years of neglect and abuse by the white supremacists in the GOP
She has gone to visit her family in Colombia.
She goes to visit them every year when not filming. She does so more now as she has money from acting.
I'm sorry for her family and suffering, but I would never expect to stay illegally in any other country without consequences if you got caught.
But for some reason everyone thinks America is evil for doing exactly what any other country would do, deportation.
D Rat you know, no authority or ICE worker, government worker ever reached out to her after her parents were deported. A 14 year old girl, left alone. She had to rely on the kindness of friends
D Rat I would say that’s evil. Yes, it’s illegal for immigrants to be here but America handles it very poorly. If the system was better, this would be avoidable. Becoming a citizen is not easy what so ever
Columbia has such beautiful women!
It's Colombia with an O! How hard is it for you ppl to learn to spell???
@@Skies133 you must be proud of yourself.
@@TuomariMuller 😑😑 well, at least I am educating someone. What is the purpose of your sarcastic comment?? No value added whatsoever.
@Steel Castle your are funny...lol
@@Skies133 your are funny? Should I educate you on that, would that add value to you?
Omg maritza oitnb is life she is qween lol I sound like a six year old duck she’s actually from Colombia
Did she go go college?
Total opposite of her character. I hated her character up until the ICE scenes, then my heart broke.
There has to be a common sense solution to the immigration issue. We seem so deficient of salt of the earth decent people, we need to help make a path for honest people to stay here.
I wonder what happens in a place like, oh I don't know, China, if you were to just show up and start living there, then publicly condemn the government for deporting you. I'd be willing to bet China, along with damn near every other nation on earth, wouldn't even be having this discussion. I mean let's think logically at how conceded this is -- I can come to a country, for reasons that may very well be decent, and demand that I should be able to just stay and live out my life unhindered by that country's laws or its people.
Although I agree with your perspective about immigrants coming here illegally, but this is what colonizers did to the native americans. How about white americans go back to europe, black americans go back to africa & latino americans go back to central & south america? Let's have the native americans have their land back
@@Pacman_131 Conquest was the way of the world then. Things aren't that way anymore. Not to mention, when the "colonizers" arrived in North America, there was no country to even speak of. The Indians weren't some united ethnic group with a cohesive culture and a sovereign territory. They were lived few and far between, warred amongst one another and were spread out amongst vast areas of uninhabited land. But most importantly, conquest and empire building was the de facto geopolitical structure for centuries, even continuing into the latter half of the 19th century.
@@ZackEdwards1234 you're eating native American people food so stfu
Why hasnt she flown to Colombia to see her parents?
According to another interview I watched, she goes to Colombia once a year to see them.
@@hshuemaker the statement is misleading... It said "reunited with her parents in the US"
That's an attractive and cool female. So charismatic.
I know a girl like her. She is that babe at your job with 3 jobs. She ain't got time for your bullshit. Shes hard at work trying to make it without distractions.
Colombia is great by the way.. it's not a bad place as she and other people make it out to be that you escape from..
Edison Espinosa idk what part you from but i can’t have my phone out cuzz i’ll get robbed
Hehe what about pablo
she is a mix between Camila Cabello and Lea Michele
Also effects everybody else that is there legally
Can you answer why your parents never took you to Columbia?? Or how is it possible the government not pick up the children to keep the family United, do the parents don't sayI have children or is the government just not picking up the kids?
Ana ANAA first of all it’s Colombia* , they wanted to give their daughter a better chance in life don’t be ignorant
@@izabella4571 first of all the question was not for You.. And well ignorant or not. All i imagine is a 14 year old girl coming home to Everbody gone. Then Ice n child projection service not picking her up! And your family cant or wont send for her. How is this better life. Thank God she had good friends because it could of went really bad.. it'd be a good idea to tell her story! For many ignorant peopel..huy huy hu y. To understand her STORY..
It's very sad but that's the solution? Every country has laws and breaking the law leads to punishment (and apparently some people even abuse this). I want to move to another country as well but would I ever do that illegally? Absolutely not. Would I do that if that meant my family could be punished because of my choices? Again, absolutely not.
Was she left alone as a minor?
Yes, she was 14
God she is so gorgeous. So fucked up what happened to her. Not right. Not right at all.
I don't get it why isn't she visiting them? She has the money doesn't she or is she scared to get robbed kidnapped orrrrr what??
she visits them every year. the video said that they haven’t reunited in the united states, meaning they haven’t gone back to the us
I totally read that wrong lol cuz I was like I know she said in an interview that she visits!
You’re kind of stupid
visit them in columbia
First of all is COLOMBIA with an O😑 2nd she was a teen when they were separated & it isn't the same...
@@Skies133 Nah i spell it Columbia. anyway, rules are rules. you dont get to jump the line just because you want to. follow the law or dont be surprised when the law come knocking. shes fucking sexy though. Columbian women are deff up there.
@@verceti2395 Just shut up
@@rian9615 no you shut up
HOT
