The role of María in West Side Story should've been for Rita Moreno, but they didn't wanted to give the lead to an actual Latina so they had Natalie Wood literally study her, joke's on them because Rita was amazing and won an Oscar for the role she played even tho it was secondary
Can't wait for West Side Story (2021) to come out this December. Rita is in it again along side some of my favorite dancers: Myles Erlick Julian Elia Maddie Zeigler
Simply because no one has ever included the Peabody with the EGOT. It's always been judged by those four awards alone. While the Peabody is prestigious in its own right, it's somewhat laughable when included with the rest.
Moreno is wonderful. However, if you ant to sound intelligent when doing a spot like this PERHAPS you might want to pronounce Louis B. Mayer's name correctly. You actually mispronounced it twice.
Peabody? LOL! That's never included in the EGOT. Also, Moreno has Marrano (Spanish-Jewish) lineage. Lastly, Louis B. Mayer is pronounced "Mayer," not "Myer."
She is 100% PRican . She married a Jewish man. Of course she is going to have some Spanish blood as do MANY PRicans. Moreno came from her stepfather who was not PRican.
@@amgooder Moreno herself has stated that she believes she is descended from crypto-Jews from 15th Century Spain. Similarly, many scholars believe that Christopher Colombus was actually a Jewish converso from Spain. Lastly, Puerto Ricans also have African lineage. Reminds me of the hilarious line from Sidney Lumet's Q&A: "You're just a black man with straight hair!" ehe

brings tears to me eyes that this is what they do, why can’t they accept us? accept others?
YESSS Rita! what an icon! ♡
wait this is abuelita from one day at a time? OMG
She is so funny and sharp at 90 years old I can’t watch her enough .
Living legend
What's a Latinx is that a latino version of Kleenex? (Chill, it's a quote from One Day At A Time)
If so, it’s the BEST Kleenex!
I love that line so much
Rita Moreno is not only a good actress, she is also a very beautiful woman ❤

Dale abuelita dale, dale abuelita dale. 💖💖💖
this is a really well made video
I love her! Omg😔♥️♥️
Rita is a STARR
Please say her name with a Latin accent.
Yes, Ms. Moreno bristles at being designated Reeda Morayno.
Latin is a dead language. I doubt many people today know how to speak it,even less how to imitate such an accent.
Rita🇵🇷Moreno 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Latinos don't say "lantinx"
Even if its not very common, its nice for it to be an option. I say Latinx so I dont offend anyone.
@@guidomista7473 Sounds like you offend Latinos
@@guidomista7473 well latinx offends me so your argument is moot
@@guidomista7473 well latinx is offensive so don't say it.
Don't forget she also have a Golden globe award.
god when she was young she was a beautiful woman
💖💖💖
isnt the person speaking from jane the virgin?
Yeah. Jane's best friend
Why make her out to be a victim??? She wasn’t a victim. She fought to the top. Fuhhh stop with the inferior complex
