The singer has been promoting her new documentary film, "Tomorrow was Beautiful," and opening up about her heritage and her family in ways that she hasn't been able to in the past.

"I have to say, I'm a professional taster of Bandeja Paisas across the globe," she said. "Colombia has some amazing dishes, but if I'm talking about my mom's cooking, I'm choosing sopita de guineo." The dish is a traditional soup made in Colombia that revolves around guineo, a green plantain that's very common in the area.
