“I’m very proud to be [from area code] 305!” Genesis Rodriguez tells Alexa about her hometown of Miami. “The people, the food, the water, the culture — it’s the most beautiful city.”
The Cuban-Venezuelan-American actress plays Captain Josephina Carillo on “Lioness,” an espionage drama now in its second season on Paramount+. “Josephina is the coolest character I’ve ever played,” says Rodriguez, 37. “She flies helicopters. Enough said.”
The “woman power” show boasts other formidable female leads, including Oscar winner Nicole Kidman, Laysla De Oliveira and one of Rodriguez’s acting heroes, Zoe Saldaña. “To have the opportunity to work with her is a dream come true,” says “The Umbrella Academy” alum. “Zoe is truly amazing!”
When in South Florida, the Heat fan can be spotted checking out art in KDR gallery or the Rubell Museum and eating at Sunny’s Steakhouse or Tâm Tâm. Her hotel of choice: “There’s only one — The Standard Miami Beach, baby!” Rodriguez is just as decisive when it comes to the scents, sips and sneakers that put a smile on her face.
“I wear my Apple watch nonstop because I’m obsessed with counting my steps.”
“They are so fun and at a great price!”
“It smells fresh and citrusy and it’s not overpowering. I like to smell like a spa rather than a flower.”
“I love any bikini from Heavy Manners because they are high- waisted and super flattering on the bum.”
“This light oil has arnica in it, which is anti-inflammatory, so it’s perfect for before and after face treatments.”
“This is my quick pick-me-up before work or a date night. It’s a godsend of a face gadget, lifting and sculpting. It gets the job done — and I should know, I’ve tried them all.”
“I love Our Place cookware’s pans so much. They are perfect.”
“I literally love everything by Mara Scalise — the cuffs, the hoops and the rings. They are my uniform. But this ring is my absolute favorite.”
“Chanel lipstick in ‘Moment’ is the perfect neutral brown and so moist.”
“St. Agni bags are so chic. I have a tote in chocolate and the more you wear it, the more buttery the leather gets.”
“It’s punk. Punk is back. It’s having a moment and I’m here for it — again.”
“Sambas are so comfy. I love them in every color, but especially green and orange are fun. But I also love the classic black.”
“I’m a coffee aficionado. Any from La Cabra is amazing, but especially the fruity ones.”
