Jenny Lorenzo is many things, an actor, a writer, a producer, a self-recllaimed nerd,

and your favorite Cuban abuelita. You have seen her viral videos on Instagram, YouTube, Me Too, and on BuzzFeed, where she

was a co-founder of Beiro-like.

Now Jenny is giving us an inside look at how her characters and her worlds come to life,

how she is producing all of this in the middle of a pandemic, and the hustle, the unbelievable

hustle that goes into piecing it all together. Thank you. all of this in the middle of a pandemic and the hustle, the unbelievable hustle

that goes into piecing it all together.

Jenny, I'm almost,

I have to admit, not accustomed to just seeing you as Jenny.

Nobody is.

I was like, is that what you look like?

I want to take a listen to the first abuela video that you ever did. Look, my, what I did. Look, I'm going to recognize in a few years. Tiki, tiki, tiki. It's a skeleton. Perfect for three-o-three. Come it? Hello. A boy, for a while. What you've got to do you? Look, if you don't you eat, you'll get a soplomoco. I'm going to go to start here and rest to San Nazaro.

Please. Hello, Niño, for favor. What you? Look, if you don't you know to the mott' I'm going to sit a so plas to please for the love of God. You don't want your Abuela. So, here's interesting. It's the first video that Auella was ever featured in for BuzzFeed, but she existed in a prior channel of mine called Aggressive Comics.

And Abuela was first introduced as a superhero because this was a channel that was predominantly,

you know, white male audience. I talked about video games and comic books and movies, sci-fi, strictly me being a nerd.

And then at some point, I did a movie review of the film Kickass 2. And me and my writing

partner for the show were like, let's do the Cuban oboella. Because he knew that I kind of already

did that sort of thing. And so it was the same terrible wig that you do see in that BuzzFeed video.

I think I threw, like, baby powder on it to make it gray, and she had, like, this painted red mask

over her eyes with, like, a fly swatter as her weapon. And then eventually, it made no

sense for the channel, but you can tell that I yearned to make this sort of content.

It is interesting that something that is as baked as Ebola actually takes that many iterations
