According to the actress, her character and Pvt Drake were Terran/Earth street punks who were offered the Colonial Marines instead of jail.

Jenette Goldstein, what a badass.

Somebody said "alien" she thought they said "illegal alien" and signed up!
IdiotMcNoobtard
Which is literally the story of how she ended up with the part.
faceofpoopy
Behind the head pull up, so much harder good lord. Probably legit did it with those muscles too. Vasquez was the shit
Steylor
Good occasion to ask : can anybody tell me why all the badass soldier girls in movies are hispanic? Why this clichè?
DamnedAustin
Honestly? Probably BECAUSE of this movie. Most of our modern futuristic space marine type shit can be tied back to this movie.
todayok
TIL G.I. Jane was an hispanic character.
SomePeopleSayThatCucumbersTasteBetterPickled
Can you give other examples? Because Edge of Tomorrow, Courage Under Fire, I can't think of many, but I'm not seeing a hispanic cliche.
stressfracturesintitanium
Michelle Rodriguez in Battle: Los Angeles. Also SWAT, albeit as a badass cop, not soldier. Though TBH I think she's just typecast.
Steylor
At least one Resident Evil, various "cannibal movies", The Walking dead, Alien the fiorst that come to mind
Steylor

Someone said "alien". She thought they said "illegal alien" and signed up!
TrueLegateDamar
That's actually what happened when the actress went for an audition.
Mewmus
never saw the original alien, she showed up in full makeup w/hair down to her ass whilst everyone else was in military garb
bigsoos
People down voting bc they didn't know it was a line in the movie?
Dryheat
I should have put it all in quotations. Lol. I have nothing against aliens, illegal, Xenomorph or otherwise!
LobsterBandito
Probably. People have hair triggers nowadays. "Somewhere, someone is being victimized. I must go make protest signs! AWAY!"

My cousin (who is Latina) said that was the best line she had ever heard in action film

Fun or sad fact depending on who you ask.

She also played the Irish mother in 'Titanic'. A true chameleon.
Hungrypiemonger
also played the cleaning lady "Alice" in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

She also played Diamondback in Near Dark, along with Bill Paxton and Lance Henriksen a year after Aliens, and directed by Kathryn Bigelow...

Jeanette Goldstein. She was also in Near Dark, alongside her two co-stars, Lance Hendrickson and Bill Paxton.

James Cameron has a fetish for women doing pullups

Just a good old armpit fixation, don't judge

I find its hot when he does pull ups. I'd imagine guys will find it hot when girls do that too.

Especially because the actress who played her opened up a lingerie shop in Hollywood for women with larger than average boobs.

She opened a store in LA that specializes in bras for big breasted women. The motto is "the alphabet starts at D." Such a badass.
FreedomWaffles
but that's not where the alphabet starts.
Sintanan
There is no reason the alphabet has to start at A, other than one guy that wrote a song thought it sounded good.
Individualsocksinthewashingmachine
She really was, her contribution to everyones survival gets overlooked. If it wasn't for her they'd have been fucked in the vents
INeedTheSauce
If they'd just listen instead of acting tough, maybe they'd all survived
Individualsocksinthewashingmachine
I'd say it was mostly Gormans fault initially for ignoring Ripley and losing so many marines. Not enough caution there
justacap
Also, just a badass all the way around.
Individualsocksinthewashingmachine
Yeah, she'd have gotten out alive easily if she didn't have to look after everyone else.
justacap
Nope, she would've been a dust-cloud w/o Bishop. Wouldn't have known how to get there w/o Newt. Newt only trusted Ripley. Need more guns.
justacap
...at that point to protect Newt & Ripley. Then she'd have had to blow her chain of command by leaving/disobeying Hicks.
Individualsocksinthewashingmachine
I'd say in relation to the whole mess. Had Vasquez found herself alone in that circumstance she would have managed alright.
idontenglishsorry
I just started to watch alien since i was little when they released them and are masterpieces
shibbytothelibby
Same here, just re-watched them. Alien is fantastic and Aliens is flawless.
justacap
Did a re-watch just awhile back. Aliens isn't flawless, but it is a *damn* good movie.
Space2place
I saw them as a child -scared the crap out of me. I thought I'd see that arched head slowly coming around the corner into my room.. x_x
andaction
As an adult it isn't much better. White knuckled most of the movie and came out of theater with stomach in knots. Jesus!
sampojv
I did the same last 2 weeks just because theres a new movie now
DrKriegersClone
Don't worry, the squirrel saves everybody at the end.
idontenglishsorry
Yeah that's exactly the reason why I started haha
DaMackies
No, but she has occasionally been mistaken for Hispanic.
PrincessDandelion
I thought this was a pun targeted at people insisting on gendering everything. Because if at all she's Herspanic.
GlitterInTheDarkNearTheTannhauserGate
Hudson: "Somebody said 'alien' she thought they said 'illegal alien' and signed up!" Vasquez: Fuck you, man!
Snooj
Vasquez the character is probably Hispanic.
GregForse
Honest trailer for the win
xelavia
I seriously thought she was until I saw all the comments on this post and looked it up.
DeadOnionSaysWhat
Enlighten us!
AlbinoAlligator
Do you know I just found out she was not Latina THIS YEAR.
DylanDylanDylanDylanDylanBecauseISpitHotFire
So what you are saying is they did brown face
MaggGyver
I mean, non Hispanic people can look Hispanic. Even white Europeans have varying skin tones.
snipermonkeymc
Yup I am German and Irish decent I tan dark and have dark hair and have been mistaken for a hispanic.
aquestionfouru
Who cares, she was good in the role.
SomeCrazyNerd
She's semi Hispanic. Some ancestry.
AlbinoAlligator
Nope, not Mrs. Jenette Goldstein.
SomeCrazyNerd
She has some Brazillian blood
pronoun
Well, she is playing a character with an accent named Vasquez.
TachyonCode
Doesn't mean she's Hispanic. Just like not all peeps named "Jefferson" are black or white.
TachyonCode
TYL: People can migrate to an area and adopt a local surname that roughly translates to their old one.
TachyonCode
And heck, it's not even always a direct translation. Sometimes it's just an entirely different surname.
dasAchteck
...while she is named Goldstein.
Individualsocksinthewashingmachine
Jessica Alba played someone called Susan Storm. It's almost like they're not playing themselves in movies
TwoToneeRebel
Ahh Susan Storm. Mother to one of the most powerful cosmic beings in the universe (Franklin Richards). nigga made galactictis his Herald.
pronoun
Oh please, how many people know her real name without looking it up first? Top comment is Vasquez was the shit...
dasAchteck
I'm not saying I didn't have to look it up, but if you see her in anything else, she's clearly not Hispanic. Hell, her IMDB bio says:
dasAchteck
"Jenette Goldstein is a true chameleon. She is so effective as an actress, it is nearly impossible to recognize her from role to role."
electrikwordlife
I only recently found out it was the same woman who plays John Connor's stepmom in T2 Judgement Day. Ya know, ol' Knifey Hands McMilkStab.

It's almost like the skillful application of makeup can change a person's appearance.
TheInfamousSwissCheeseMasturbator
It's almost like she's just acting like a hispanic space marine.. Possibly she's an actor?
Individualsocksinthewashingmachine
Wait a minute. Just wait a minute

Orange is the New Black just had a character weep over a school putting on a play of "Dreamgirls" with white teenagers.

White is the new offensive.

rudejohn
From Wikipedia, with sources: "Her background also includes Moroccan and Brazilian ancestry."
furiouslumberjack
Speak portuguese in brazil...making her latina, but not hispanic.
TachyonCode
3) Which explains why they think this is a "Christian nation", I guess...
TachyonCode
2) In fact, it's almost like uneducated white people can't make cultural distinctions that aren't neatly delineated by skin tone.
SolitaireUnraveling
It's almost as if Americans aren't exposed to cultures south of Mexico. We aren't, and it's not our fault. How many people from Chile are
SolitaireUnraveling
Migrating and creating Chilean communities in the states? Can you tell Europeans or Asians apart at a glance?
TachyonCode
It's almost like uneducated white people can't explicitly tell them apart.
rudejohn
It's almost like those with knowledge of history know "Hispanic" derives from Roman/Latin "Hispania" which referred to the Iberian peninsula
rudejohn
And that while Brazilian might not fit your specific definition of "Hispanic" today, historically they were ethnically the same peoples.
jsktrogdor
People are downvoting because they don't realize that actress is not hispanic at all.

SpannerInTheWorx
Thus, makin g the point?
luminousbeing
She was also an Irish mother in Titanic
mrmelonhead
James Cameron likes to reuse actors for supporting cast. That's why Bill Paxton is also in Titanic, Aliens, and Terminator.
rudejohn
Except she IS part Brazilian. "Her background also includes Moroccan and Brazilian ancestry." (Wikipedia, with interview sources)
Koumus
...and? What does Brazil has to do with Hispanic...
rudejohn
Hispanic originally referred to the people of ancient Roman Hispania, which roughly comprised the Iberian Peninsula,
rudejohn
including the contemporary states of Spain, Portugal, Andorra, and the British Overseas Territory of Gibraltar.
furiouslumberjack
Which wouldn't make her Hispanic. Hispanic refers to Spanish speaking countries. She is Latin. But they speak Portuguese in Brazil.
rudejohn
Hispanic comes from Hispania, a Roman (Latin) term referring to Spain AND Portugal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hispanic
jsktrogdor
You cherry picked the part of the wiki article that describes what Hispanic meant hundreds of years ago.
rudejohn
While it generally describes people from Spanish-speaking countries, from an ethnic lineage standpoint, most Iberians could be confused.
