"I must have been 13 or 14," said Saldaña in an interview with W Magazine. "I was that girl who said, 'Let's play house.' And that's why I wasn't invited to play at people's houses!" she said with a laugh. 

"So I was already kissing a whole bunch of girls by the time I was 13, 14. Girls are such better kissers."

In the same interview, Saldaña recalled her celebrity crushes, which included Prince and Annie Lennox. "There was just something androgynous about them." 

"I love a woman who’s masculine and a man who is feminine. I find that to be really sexy," she said. 

Saldaña is married to Marco Perego, with whom she's been married since 2013. The pair share three kids: twins Cy, and Bowie, 10, and Zen, 8.

More details about Saldaña and Perego's family

As she's promoted her award-nominated work in the film "Emilia Perez," Saldana has discussed her Latin roots and raising her kids, and how now she's trying to unite all of these things. 

"As a daughter of immigrants, also being an artist, having Spanish as my native tongue became a world that was very separate from the world that I lived in when I became an adult," she said in an appearance at The Stephen Colbert Show. "And it was unconscious, it wasn't a purposeful intention."

"But after I became a mother and now that I'm perimenopausal I'm compelled to look back at all the things I've accomplished." 

"Emilia Perez felt like a gift for me. It was a very selfish decision to make," she said. "Little did I know that it was going to be a film that was going to resonate for so many people for so many reasons. That's quite special."
