Lupe Velez: The Burning of the Mexican Spitfire
Velez's story has a lot of people that wronged her, from bad boyfriends to equally bad press
It's a new Women They Warned You About. Before Bad Bunny made people big mad at the Super Bowl, I wanted to look at Lupe Velez, an actress labeled difficult for being too loud, too brash, and too Latina. Read it at The Film Maven.
