Camila Mendes Feels ‘Very Supported’ by Jessica Alba’s Efforts to Bring Latinx Actors Together: ‘There’s Something Really Strong Happening’

Unwrapped Podcast: Mendes recalls attending a “lovely” event for Latinx actors at Alba’s house

Hollywood can be a lonely industry. But according to Camila Mendes, that’s just not the case for Latinx actors right now. In fact, she feels a “very strong” community around her — and the “Upgraded” star gives some much deserved credit to Jessica Alba for it.

Appearing on the latest episode of the “UnWrapped” Podcast, the actress and executive producer noted that “there’s something really strong happening” between Latinx creatives right now, with Alba making a point to actively bring them all together.

“Right now, there’s this group chat that all the Latinx actors in Hollywood are on,” Mendes explained. “And it’s just nothing but love and support and people posting and sharing each other’s accomplishments and lifting each other up.
