Future plans... We know that your writing your Memoir which is extremely exciting! What can u tell us about that? Is there anything else interesting ahead? Perla: Well, Ive touched the surface here regarding my childhood. Im just hoping to write a book that can inspire and make people think about their lives and the decisions they are forced to make every day. Ive had a pretty hectic life, and if I can overcome the obstacles Ive had before me, so can anyone. Im working on a 3 other things im not allowed to discuss right now but when I do, you guys will be the first to know. I should be able to tell you about one of them within a months time.
What was your childhood like and where did you grow up? Perla: My childhood was very crazy! I grew up all over Los Angeles and Miami. My dad was a drug dealer. He eventually went to jail when I was 9 till about 15. I spent my teens visiting him in prison. It was very hard, but all I knew. My parents were Cuban immigrants that came seeking political asylum. They came with nothing and did what they did to survive. I don?t agree with what they did, but I don?t judge them. He did go legit and had a painting company for a while. My mom divorced my father when I was 8 and went legit. She has an interpreting agency and is retiring next year.
What would you say is your major achievement so far? The thing you've done that you're most proud of...Perla: My major achievement is keeping my marriage strong and family together. In my world, this is not easy. The thing I am the most proud of are my two boys. I know it?s a clich? but I adore them?
What do you hate? I mean, is there anything that annoy you so much that could ruin your day?Perla: Nothing can really ruin my day unless there is something wrong with Slash, Cash or London. That?s it. If the boys get hurt or sick, or Slash and I get in a tiff, those are the only things that bring me down.
