The model-actress grabbed plenty of attention when she was first associated with Leonardo in 2017. “It's a little bit of a bummer because you're really trying to do good work and be nice and be a good person, and in the meantime...people wish negative things upon you,” she continued.

But Camila isn’t allowing the negativity to get in her way of becoming a movie star. During her interview, the starlet shared she tries not to let others’ criticism “take away the joy of the craft that I get to do.”

“I'm really lucky in the sense that I have the privilege of being able to pick and choose what I do,' she said. “[I] only pick projects I really love and feel I can bring something to and I can learn from,” she added. “I think it's hard for the world and also the industry to be able to see you as both.”
