“This was a very personal project, so getting to document parts of my family history was such a gift,” Blanca shares. PEDAZOS offers an intimate insight behind her decision to make music in Spanish over the past two years. “I have been to Puerto Rico many times but for some reason filming this documentary gave it a whole new light.

Blanca is the biggest supporter of her house children, as well as her friends Pray Tell (Billy Porter), Lulu (Hailie Sahar), Elektra (Dominique Jackson) and Candy (Angelica Ross) almost to a fault. She doesn’t let Damon (Ryan Jamaal Swain) wallow in the fact that he didn’t get a spot on Madonna’s Blonde Ambition tour, or Angel (Indya Moore) beat he...
Even in the face of enormous oppression during the AIDS epidemic, Blanca is always looking forward and figuring out how she and her family can succeed. She pushes Pray Tell to get on HIV treatment drugs after experiencing a boost in her own health. And, despite this season’s main foil, snobby real estate mogul Frederica (Patti LuPone) stopping at n...
Blanca rarely falters. If one of her kids gets in trouble, you know she’ll be there ripping them a new one or, more likely, ripping the person who wronged them. Her dogged support of her own family sometimes blinds her to when they are legitimately in the wrong — like when Angel uses drugs. But her kids eventually come around to the fact that mothe...
Blanca has clearly learned from Elektra not to parent with an iron fist and sharp tongue. When Angel lands a modelling gig for a Wet n Wild cosmetics campaign, Blanca marches her house into Duane Reade to be the first to see Angel’s face front-and-centre in the makeup aisle. And when Damon misses the deadline to apply to dance school, Blanca accost...
If you need her, Blanca will show up. During a session with Elektra at the sex dungeon, a man overdoses and dies; Elektra calls Blanca, and while she thinks they should call the police, they entrust Candy and another trans sex worker, Ms Orlando (Cecilia Gentili) with sewing up the body and storing it in Elektra’s closet so that she won’t be charge...
So says co-creator Steven Canals, so it has to be true! In every scene, Mj Rodriguez dares viewers not to feel. Whereas some of the other characters on Pose appear to be larger than life, Blanca is down to earth. As a result, she’s a relatable character that provides viewers with a way into a subculture that many might not be familiar with.
Blanca has really been through it. Her insecurities bubble up in her fight with Pray Tell about his poz status and how hard it is to date as a straight trans woman with the disease. Blanca also realizes that the high standards she has for her friends and family, and her attempts to help them reach the goals she lays out for them, have perhaps drive...
Blanca has the utmost faith in those around her, but she uses that to mask her own self-doubt. We saw that in last week’s girl’s trip to the beach, when she expressed trepidation about baring her body in a bikini and getting clocked.
In perhaps the best episode of the first season, Blanca was crowned mother of the year at one of the show’s famed balls. Though they’re currently not on speaking terms, at the time Pray Tell said it best when he called her caring, loyal, affirming and inspiring. Though Blanca is now an empty-nester, it is for all of the aforementioned reasons that ...

Apr 2, 2021 · Historically, Blanca has naturally translated her lyrics from English to Spanish, but for Renovada, she intentionally crafted every song from the ground up in her native tongue. Renovada, which means “renewed,” pays tribute to Blanca’s late parents, both of whom she previously lost to cancer. The new project honors her parents’ legacy ...
